Oggy usually spends his time either watching TV or doing housework, when he's not chasing the cockroaches. Bob, a short-tempered bulldog, also appears in the show and is Oggy's neighbor. In many situations, Oggy is also helped by Jack, who is more violent and short-tempered than him and is also annoyed by the cockroaches.
The cockroaches' slapstick mischief ranges from plundering Oggy's refrigerator to hijacking the train he just boarded. Oggy, an anthropomorphic cat, would prefer to spend his days watching television and eating but is continually pestered by three roaches: Joey, Marky and Dee Dee.
