Since his

History
While creating Ludicrous Limericks, Jankowski wanted a villain for Darrell and Dorothy, and came up with a tuxedo cat for the design. The feline character was named Creighton which, as Jankowski stated, "was the most pretentious name (he) could think of".

For the voice, Jankowski decided on actor Pinto Colvig, who used a maniacal, almost French-sounding accent. After his death in 1967, Larry Storch of F-Troop fame hasassumed the role ever since. Beginning in 2001, Eric Bauza has also been hired as Storch's understudy.
