Officer Charlie Dibble is a police officer who stars as a main character in the Top Cat animated television series. His voice was originated by Allen Jenkins.

Officer Dibble's goal in life is to keep Top Cat and his gang under control in his beat. Though he tries is best to have them clean their alley and stay off his police telephone, Dibble remains as T.C.'s foil by being the one who falls under his wily tricks.

Character description

Dibble is a tall and stout man with fair skin, always sharply dressed in the blue police uniform and looking orderly. His black hair is always slicked back to maintain a professional appearance, though it tends to be hidden by the blue cap of his uniform.

Often referred to as a "by the book cop," Dibble is committed to his job and is often found trying to help civilians out in New York. Though he usually resents the gang's presence in the alley and can be rather impatient and strict with them, he sometimes respects them and is shown to care about their well-being. He can be somewhat dim-witted at times, leading him to being easily tricked by Top Cat. Dibble is also quite emotional, as he can be quite sensitive at times.
