Brain is an anthropomorphic cat and a main character in the Top Cat animated television series. His voice was originated by Leo De Lyon.

A comrade of T.C.'s gang, Brain acts as a simple follower due to his not-so-intelligent and dim-witted attitude.

In the Max series Jellystone!, Brain is now a flippant girl who is voiced by Georgie Kidder.

Character description

Brain is an orange cat with a peach muzzle and fur tufts that droop under his face. He has a droopy, tired face and wears a purple shirt with a black strip at the bottom.

In Layman's terms, Brain is an idiot. Brain is a slow-witted member of Top Cat's crew who doesn't get the gist of T.C.'s orders, often misunderstanding anything that he hears about. He is also notorious for being unable to keep secrets, which tend to spoil much of the gang's antics. He also seems to be in charge of the group's money, which they rarely have, and he runs up and down the road. Despite being being apparently oblivious to many things, he is also has a cheerful side who has a whimsical way of expressing many things. Whenever Brain says something brilliant on occasion, Top Cat would instantly rephrase his sayings to make it sound like he said it.

In Jellystone!, Brain is a girl and also appears to be more intelligent, despite the original irony of the name. In contrast to her male counterpart's dull, unthinking look on his face, the female Brain has a dull, uninterested look on her face.
