[edit] Characters

Yoko is a Japanese Bobtail from Japan. She is a typical sweet young girl, good at the violin and seeing the best in people. Yoko enjoys many Japanese things such as sushi and origami which has occasionally caused problems for her.

Timothy is a racoon and the 'star' of the show, though many episodes don't involve him. He is generally a perfect young boy, seemingly without any character flaws at all.

Nora is a mouse who is somewhat bossy and sulky sometimes. She is known for making a lot of noise which has earned her the nickname Noisy Nora. She owns an iguana called Norman who lives in the school. She has an eight-year old sister named Kate who hasn't appeared in the show other than as a picture Nora drew of her, and an extremely messy baby brother named Jack who occasionally appears.

Charles is a mouse who is shy and likes to play by himself at recess but is often found around Timothy or Lily. He seems to be interested in astronomy.

Lily is a fox who is forgetful, and to remedy this she often ties a string around a finger. Lily has a pet fish named Treasure.

Frank & Frank are the boston terrier twins who love sports and often speak in unison. They are known for play fighting, telling jokes and their catchphrases such as "Me before you"-- "Me first"-- "ME first"-- "We'll BOTH go first" before both squeezing through a door.

Doris is a beaver who is incredibly boisterous. She is a talented soccer player who seems to have a fear of spiders. Doris has three older brothers; Horace, Morris and Boris.

Fritz is the badger who is very fond of science and insects. He leaves for another school in one episode and returns soon after.

Juanita is the Mexican cat. She resembles Fritz slightly. Upon joining the school, she is very nervous and anxious. Eventually she overcomes her nerves and tells her Mom to go, though she still tells her Mom whenever she might need her. A new pupil to the school she sees the best in people like Yoko.

Claude is a raccoon who tries to be the best in the school though he comes off arrogant in some cases. As they are both raccoons there is some rivalry between him and Timothy.

Grace is an upper-class cat belonging to a very wealthy family. She likes things her way. Her interests include dance and, as shown in one episode, figure skating.

Mrs Jenkins the fox is the teacher of the class and her name was Ms. Abercrombie before she was married to Mr Jenkins as mentioned in the episode Just In Time. She can play the piano and she enjoys watching birds.

There are several notable adults, though many only appear in a couple of episodes (such as the Frank's father, Yoko's mother, Doris's brothers- and the parents of the other children.). Henry (a beaver) is the janitor, bus driver and possibly school nurse. He is always cheerful. Mrs Appleberry, also possibly the school nurse and likely a governor, acts as a substitute teacher and accompanies the students on field trips.
