Characters

Rat-A-Tat names are in parentheses

  • Doggy Don (Don) is a light red dog who is usually annoyed by the mice. His days are always ruined by the mice; therefore, he always plans to get revenge on them and rarely succeeds.
  • Colonel is the over-protective, occasionally aggressive and arrogant elder brother of Don; a former member in the army, he is always there to protect himself and Don from the mice's mischievous ways. He is a muscular light green dog who wears an olive green army hat.
  • Chhotu (Charly) is the self-proclaimed leader of the Chuha Party and is the most annoying, oldest and vicious from all of them. He is usually considered as a genius, as he almost always wins with his team by the end of the most episodes.
  • Lambu (Larry) is purple mouse, the thinnest of all of mice and usually is known by his catchphrase, Don't make me angry. He tends to joke around more than the other mice and is at least responsible.
  • Motu (Marly) is a grayish-blue fat mouse who is always hungry and tries to eat any other thing which is not edible and gets his teeth broken. He is also the most dumbest and naive of all the Chuha Party. He is the youngest member of the Chuha party.
  • Ballu (Rox) is a grumpy dog living next door to Don and Colonel. A running gag in the most episodes is that Don and his brother (or the mice rarely) accidentally break in his house and broke his precious things or his entire house, for which he usually gives them a handful of beating.
