This is very special episode. I think everyone should see it. Maybe a little frightning for younger children, but hey, go with the flow everybody. Waffle's very funney in this episode.
Mr. Blik is as greedy as anything in this episode. Go watch it at all costs. Go watch it.

TRIVIA (4)
ADD TRIVIA
- Why would Human Kimberly give Gordon chocolate? Cats die if they eat chocalate.
  EDIT SHARE
- The hanger the cats run into to inflate themselves is Hangar 18. It is a reference to the film of the same name, and thusly the song of the same title by the band Megadeth.
  EDIT SHARE
- The cats possibly couldn't have been the only competitors in the challenge to be the root beer king. Shouldn't there be kids competing?
  EDIT SHARE
- In one of the scenes where Blik and Waffle are inflated balloons and are fighting in "King of All Root Beer", Blik's eyes turn white for about a minute or so.

  EDIT SHARE
- Lady in Audience: Look! Giant invading cats are attacking the city! Man in Audience: Not again! Sassyfrass: What are they doing?! They're ruining my parade! Uck! (to Root Bear) Get them down!
  EDIT SHARE
- Waffle: The Burpo's factory stands 300 feet tall and spews root beer to the quarter hour. Mr. Blik: Waffle, a king needs leadership, not a bunch of la-de-da trivia. Gordon: Besides, that's just a rumor. (factory spews out root beer) Gordon, Mr. Blik, & Waffle: (drink root beer) Mmmmmmm.
  EDIT SHARE
- Gordon: (gets pinched by Mr. Blik and drops the piece of broccoli) Aww, my sweet broccoli is in the elevator.
  EDIT SHARE
- Waffle: We know Gordon's allergic! Stop trying to trick us with the truth! Truth tricker!
  EDIT SHARE

  Waffle:Then why do we have an escape pod?

NOTES (4)
ADD NOTES
- This episode without commercials is 24 minutes and 2 seconds long.
  EDIT SHARE
- Catscratch should be set in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania since the tower Randall goes to the top is similar to the One Liberty Place building. Also, the city bears a resemblance to Philadelphia.
  EDIT SHARE
- The Root Beer challenges included the Root Beer Barrel Run, a race to the top of the long plant roots, a wrestling match with the Root Bear, and the Root Beer Trivia.
  EDIT SHARE
- Sassyfras appears for the first time in "King of All Root Beer."

  EDIT SHARE

  EDIT SHARE
