Butch is a character in the American cartoon Tom and Jerry. He is a black cat and has played the role of a stray cat many times. He first appeared in the cat-and-mouse short film "Little Cat" on1February 25th, 943. Now he is holding an orange stray cat named Lightning, a dirty brown stray cat named Meat Head, and a yellow-gray kitten named Topsy. These three cats are members of the early "iron triangle of stray cats". Butch is the leader of stray cats. He usually helps Tom catch Jerry. Only when he first appeared in Baby Cat, because Tom's young master forced him to dress up as a baby, Butch, two other cats and Jerry made fun of Tom, especially when changing Tom's diaper.

Later, Butch appeared in the short film Thomas in Spring. At that time, he forged Tudor's letter in Jerry, and was called the "dream boy". He became Tom's rival in love. Later, Butch was not only Tom's rival in love, but also an athlete. In Tennessee Fool, he is obviously better at tennis than Tom. I wonder who will win if he hits Federer? Butch, however, has always been the leader of the iron triangle of stray cats, and he is Tom's good brother in Saturday Night Cat, Smart Cat, Sleepy Tom and Legend of Cats.
