'''Fatkat Animation Studios''' was a Canadian animation studio, originally founded in Halifax by former Creator/HelixAnimation employee Gene Fowler in 2002. It later moved to Miramichi, New Brunswick. At one point, Fatkat was considered the largest animation studio in Canada and the fastest growing animation studio in the country. But however, after government funding for the studio dried up under the Harper government (as well as the company going overbudget for ''WesternAnimation/ThreeDelivery''), the 2007-2010 economic crisis occurred and the fact that the business plan didn't actually set a goal of making money, Fatkat eventually dwindled until its closure was announced in May 2009. At the time of closure, the company was down to employing only 3 people, even though it had received $1 million in government grants since 2005 under the government.
