So after reading a lot of comments about Jim and Fred , I felt I needed to touch on this a bit, as I clearly haven't put enough of it into the story for it to be understood as something that isn't malicious. So to a lot of us growing up in the 80's and 90's Mr. Rogers neighborhood was something we grew up with. Now Fred Rogers the man, was the savior of children's TV back then. He single-handedly saved PBS's funding during a congressional hearing. He would address different children's worries during his show. At one time a girl who was blind wrote him a letter , since Mr. Rogers would feed his fish at the end of every episode, but he never said that he did, she was worried they weren't being fed... For the rest of his shows run, he would always say out loud, that he was feeding his fish so that wouldn't happen again. In the years since his passing not ONE bad thing has ever come to light. I mean his wife's strangest memories was how he would break long uncomfortable silences with a fart.. cause... I mean farts are funny. So, bare in mind that CnC happens in an alternate "furry/human" reality, but in the end it pulls from my life, and my childhood, some part of it more painfully based on real life events then others. So Jim the cheetah would have grown up in a similar time, with a similar man (still human) on TV, and grown to respect him, as so many other children did. So when he calls Dr. Rogers , who is indeed named Fred Rogers , Mr. Rogers, yes it's in jest, but not in disrespect. But it is in relation to his also fond memories of the only close (and not on tv) male role model he ever had in his life. He's not doing it to belittle Fred. He never has... Now yeah stuff like https://catsncameras.com/cnc/comic/keep-it-going is Jim being silly. But it's just ingrained in his psyche. The mutual respect for similarly named men. I know I never touched a lot on Jim growing up with Fred, or in general.. Artist changes, script modifications, and lack of time put a damper in a lot of things over the past 12 years.. I just needed to touch on this, sorry for droning on and on. But hopefully if things work out in the story. We'll get to see some of that.. If not, at least now you know.
putting this first so you'll know where I'm coming from. It is said in the Bible that if someone is too puer/good or perfect that God will remove them from the Earth so as they will not become Unperfect.
So Yes Even God thought that Mr.Rogers was/is too good for the Earth.

When I was little, after we got back from Germany, the two constants in my life were Mr. Rogers and Sesame Street. So I owe that clever, empathic man, a debt of gratitude I can never repay. So it was easy for me to see beneath Jim Cheetah's constant need to tease around, to the deep affection that prompted the nickname in the first place.
