George and Joan are an average middle class white couple, who first debuted in the 1954 cartoon, Pet Peeve. They are voiced by George O'Hanlon and Julie Bennett.

In their first appearance, George and Joan are the new owners of Tom and Spike, but Joan's more of a cat person and prefers Tom while her husband, George, is more of a dog person and prefers Spike.

Joan's often seen either cooking in the kitchen or knitting while sitting in her armchair with Tom keeping her company. George, who's usually seen wearing a suit, hates the monthly bills and complains that they're too expensive, but when he's not complaining about the bills, he's usually sitting in his own armchair or on the sofa reading the newspaper with Spike keeping him company.

Appearance[]

George has black/brown hair and wears glasses. Joan has black hair.

Personality[]

Both George and Joan are very kind and polite and seem to love each other very much. George doesn't take any nonsense from Tom or Spike (despite preferring him over Tom as a pet) and will have no problem kicking them out of the house if they cause too much mischief. Joan is more laidback when dealing with Tom for the most part, but she will snap if Tom causes too much trouble. In Pet Peeve, George and Joan decided that they keep Jerry as a pet because he's easy to look after and doesn't eat too much and tell Tom and Spike to leave. However, in later episodes with George and Joan, Tom and Spike still happily live with them, and Jerry isn't known by the couple, and he isn't a pet anymore.
