Cindy Bear is an anthropomorphic bear and Yogi Bear's love interest in the Yogi Bear franchise. She was voiced by Julie Bennett.

In the Jellystone! reboot, Cindy works as a doctor at Jellystone Hospital, alongside Yogi. She no longer has a southern accent and isn't madly in love with Yogi.

Character description

Cindy Bear is a cartoon character created by Hanna-Barbera. She is one of the primary supporting characters of the Yogi Bear franchise as well as a regular in the stable of frequently appearing Hanna-Barbera animated personalities. Cindy was originally portrayed by voice actress Julie Bennett, who reprised the part for most of her appearances from the 1960s through the 1980s.


Cindy Bear was originally designed by Ed Benedict. One early sketch saw her clad in a bonnet, a frilly scarf and an apron with an elongated, pointed muzzle. A second sketch dropped all accessories save the frill scarf and shortened her muzzle.

Cindy made her debut in the 1961 television series The Yogi Bear Show as a semi-recurring character. Her finalized animation design featured blue/grey fur, a hat, a white frill scarf and a necklace.

Cindy appeared prominently in the 1964 feature film Hey There, It's Yogi Bear! in which she is kidnapped, spurring Yogi and Boo-Boo to come to her rescue. She was redesigned by art director Iwao Takamoto for the film into the more familiar modern version with light brown fur and a yellow scarf.

Cindy has received a few slightly different, one-off redesigns. In Yogi's First Christmas, she was given dark brown fur and white hair, as well as a number of different outfits which she wore throughout the film. For the Spümcø short "Boo Boo Runs Wild", she retained her modern character design, but with the blue/grey fur of her original design. Yo Yogi! featured a preteen Cindy with a significant redesign, wearing a modern 1990s outfit consisting of a white skirt/top, purple jacket, purple shorts, white boots and a ponytail.

Cindy appears in Jellystone! as a medical doctor.
