Pet Feud

"Pet Feud" is the eighth episode (part two) of The Powerpuff Girls season two, and the twenty-first overall. It aired on February 13, 2000 on Cartoon Network. It was written by Amy Rogers, and directed by Genndy Tartakovsky and series creator, Craig McCracken, as well as voice directed by Genndy Tartakovsky.

The Professor creates a pet named Beebo for the girls, who they must only feed once, and they follow that rule by each feeding him once. This causes Beebo to eat more and more, which eventually causes him to grow into a monster and eat everything and everyone in plain sight.

Memorable quotes
Narrator: The city of Townsville, where most folks, after being put through the paces of daily life, have put their dogs up and called it a day.

Narrator: Hey, what's so funny? I didn't get one either! So, once again, the day is saved, thanks to the Powerpuff Girls!
