Derek Bio

This is Derek.

Derek insists that he is CatByt's neighbor, even though he lives sixteen houses away. He never seems to leave, and CatByt has indeed never been to Derek's home, and doubts it exists.

Derek is about useless, but he did put in a good word with Lloyd to get CatByt his job, so there he is. Derek says he's an orphan like Connie, but secretly knows who both she and her mother are. Derek has a severe fish-stick habit, in addition to always having a supply of catnip, obviously stolen from his job with Catbyt. Derek never, ever sleeps, and has an opinion about everything.

Despite being a no-account, he sometimes has experienced advice for Nick Jr.

CatByt Bio

CatByt himself. The main (this is arguable) character of this comic strip. Catbyt is pronounced "ow!".

Usually caught on the sidelines of life, waiting for things to merely move on.

CatByt works for Lloyd in a catnip factory, the only job he's ever had. He's the only employee not taking product home, and also the only one who's never gotten a raise. 

CatByt has a positive outlook that can sometimes be forgotten completely, in which cases he dons Steel-Toed Cat-Boots, and becomes his Drill Sergeant father Roy (RIP). Roy claimed emphatically that CatByt had no mother, something CatByt refuses to accept.

CatByt is married to Connie, and father to Nick Jr. CatByt and Connie live sixteen houses away from Derek, who seems to always be around. CatByt despises but tolerates Derek, and adores Connie. He is genuinely terrified of Derek's wife Sandria.
