Line 8:
Otherwise the television show, created in 1994, follows a similar premise with some major deviations. In the show the transformation is the revenge of an [[Magicians Are Wizards|angry magician]] whose cat Billy had bullied, while the magician's cat assumes Billy's form and lives with his family. The cartoon is more episodic and lighthearted than the comic, though it is [[Executive Meddling|not completely unexpected.]]
 
Not to be confused with the UK comic strip of the same name, which ran in ''[[The Beano]]'' and was about a teenage superhero, or with [[Bloom County (Comic Strip)|Bill the Cat]].

=== Shared tropes: ===
Line 50:
* [[Magicians Are Wizards]]
* [[Ret-Gone]]: The wizard's cat that was transformed into Billy's doppelganger is shown in the opening episode and [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot|never seen or mentioned again]]. It wasn't even present in the episode when Billy visits his former home, where the cat should logically be.
* [[Spared Byby the Adaptation]]: Billy, due to his cat transformation being the result of an angry wizard rather than of an untimely death and reincarnation.
* [[Status Quo Is God]]
* [[What Happened to Thethe Mouse?]]: So egregious that it borders into [[Plot Hole]] territory. In one episode Billy revisits his human home and the magician's cat that took his place is no longer there. And what happened to the magician?
