Origin[]
Watson is an anthropomorphic cat who first appeared in a strip of Mr Slicker and the Egg Robbers released on November 12th, 1930. Watson is detective Burlap-Bones’s assistant.
A suit-wearing, cigar-smoking, and syringe-wielding cat, Watson is an assistant of detective Burlap-Bones. In 1930, he helped Burlap-Bones in his attempt to track down the crooks who had robbed a Mouseton bank. The two didn't get very far, as Burlap-Bones struggled to even find the bank vault that had been breached. Ultimately, the mystery was solved by Mickey Mouse, as both Burlap-Bones and Watson were apparently too incompetent to do so themselves.
