Oggy is a cat with a light blue body, green eyes, red nose, grey tummy and white feet.

Bob, a short-tempered bulldog, also appears in the show, and is Oggy's neighbor. In many situations, Oggy is also helped by Jack, who is more violent and short-tempered than him and is also annoyed by the cockroaches. The cockroaches' slapstick mischief ranges from plundering Oggy's refrigerator to hijacking the train he just boarded. Oggy, an anthropomorphic cat, would prefer to spend his days watching television and eating, but is continuously pestered by three roaches: Joey, Marky and Dee Dee. Later in January 2021, the original series will be renewed with new episodes. In September 2020, the series was reported to be rebooted as The New Adventures of Oggy in where Oggy takes care of Piya, a seven-year-old female elephant from India.
