I always figured he was either too out of shape to jump in the window or maybe too large and would not fit. The President is a fink. |

It's a pretty big window and a pretty big cat, plus Fred does work in manual labor all day. The more important question is why is the cat not in any episodes? |

He is more a machine operator and might be in not best of shape from sitting and smoking Winstons all day. You ever try to climb in a house window? I have, and it is not easy. One thing I will say is I have had jobs where I would have loved to slide down a dinosaur tail and land in my car. I did work in a call center once, shift ended on Saturday and from way, way across the room someone yelled "YABBA-DABBA-DOO!" Wish I thought of that. The President is a fink. |

The window looks plenty big for Fred to fit through. Granted, Fred looks about 50 pounds overweight but he could still stand on the pot as a step. As to his job, he got the dinosaur to move heavy boulders from the quarry. He just sat there watching the clock, I mean sundial. Good question about the cat, who is even mentioned in the closing theme song. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

I would think it an outstanding WoV trivia event question. "What character was in every Flintstone credit sequence, but never in an episode?" Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |

Didn't the Rubbles have the cat as a pet at some point? The President is a fink. |

Not that I can recall, but we're going back some 40 years here. I had to look this up, but http://flintstones.wikia.com, says the cat's name is Baby Puss (nice name) and was sometimes seen outside of the credits. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

DRich Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 51 Posts: 4966 | I feel responsible for the original Flintstones series going off the air. The last airing was Friday April 1, 1966. That was the day I was born. Wizard, have you been to Bedrock City? There is one about four hours away in Williams Arizona. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

I just passed it a couple weeks ago! Didn't go in though. It looked like an RV parking lot. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |
