Gordon Quid, or Gordon, is a fictional cat on the Nickelodeon show Catscratch. Though he comes across as assertive, Gordon has a crush on the girl next door, Kimberly. He is also more emotionally balanced between his brothers, the more aggressive Mr. Blik and goofy Waffle. Gordon also appears to be a good cook, yet he has a severe allergic reaction if fed broccoli or chocolates which turns him into a swollen monster. Despite speaking with a heavy Scottish brogue, Gordon was born in the mansion's laundry room along with his brothers. While Gordon's breed is never officially revealed in the show, he mostly resembles a white and orange Japanese Bobtail.
Gordon Quid frequently claims to be a member of the Scottish Highland Quid Clan, which Mr. Blik constantly berates him over. However, Gordon was able to finally prove there was a Highland Quid Clan, which was located in Scotland, using a map he drew himself. He was not a member however, because he did not have a cap, a beard, and couldn't launch a sheep. Gordon was able to change the Banshee, who was the Clan's curse, into a beautiful selkie-like seal woman, he was given membership in the Highland Quid Clan.
Gordon is often shown to be a great warrior; he has defeated a banshee, kraken, three-headed kraken, giant robot, and other things. However, the only one of these he used only his fighting skills against was the first kraken, generally preferring to use his quick wit and diplomatic skills over simple combative talent. Despite all of these wins he still had one feared adversary, a duckling that he met and which terrorised him as a child; the defeat endengered in him a life-long terror of ducks, and the belief that Mrs. Creamdilly was displeased with him over it, dispite Mr. Blik's theory that she was just suffering from intestinal gas. However, with a little support from his beloved Mrs Cramdilly's ghost, he overcame this fear in the episode "Duck And Cover", where - after an exhausting battle - he fought the vicious duckling and finally won.
Gordon is also friends with Human Kimberly. He has a mansion and lives with his brothers and butler, Waffle, Mr Blik and Hovis.
His second name may be a reference to the British slang term for a Pound (£).
