Slacker Cats is an animated ABC Family series that premiered on August 13, 2007. It was created using Adobe Flash. The show was initially marketed as a children's show, but in later advertising and in press kits issued to the media, it was clearly indicated that the show included a more adult tone and themes. The show's 10PM broadcast time further illustrated that its target was an adult audience. The program was rated TV-14. Slacker Cats was animated by Film Roman, the same company that animates The Simpsons and King of the Hill. It features the voice talents of comedians Harland Williams and Sinbad in the lead roles. It was created by Andy Riley and Kevin Cecil, who also served as executive producers along with animation director Seth Kearsley, who designed the characters. Slacker Cats was canceled on September 17, 2007 after 6 episodes. A second season premiered on the ABC Family website on January 19, 2009, and, according to its creators, will be released on iTunes and Xbox Live Marketplace. The second season was numbered as a continuation of the first season, episodes 7 through 12.
Buckley and Eddie want to take a vacation in Mexico, but when they are unsuccessful in boarding the airplane, they decide to simply pretend that they are in Mexico. Meanwhile, ignored and in search of a friend, Tabitha brings home the corpse of a cat that died on the freeway.
Buckley tries to organize the neighborhood against a developer who is going to despoil the natural beauty of the woods. The main problem is that Trevor, the developer, is Louise's new boyfriend. Buckley also tries to find a way to re-attach Tabitha's ear, which he accidentally ripped off in a fight.
Louise asks Buckley to clear the basement of rats. The only problem is that Buckley is too chicken to do so. That is until he meets 'The Big Guy' (who turns out to be a tiger) and he tries to copy everything the tiger does.
When Buckley finds another man in Louise's bed, he decides that it would be best to have a new name and leave town.
In order to get Louise a nice birthday present, Buckley is going to need to do something to get the money fast (Even if it means selling Tabitha to a science lab).
Buckley has made a huge mistake! Not only did he falsely believe that Eddie killed himself, he also ends up ending his own life. It's a good thing that cats have 9 lives.
Dolenz is released from the pound and goes after Buckley from putting him there.
Eddie's master is forced to have Eddie neutered when he finds out how many kittens he's had. Buckley attempts to rescue him.
Buckley is framed for murder when an old friend returns.
Buckley, Eddie, and Tabitha are trapped in the garage and get caught in a love triangle.
After Buckley and Eddie get Louise fired, Buckley attempts to get her job back with unintended consequences.
Eddie, Buckley, and Tabitha turn off the Internet and the world is thrust into total chaos without it.
