Whenever he finds himself alone in his house, he will eventually begin to miss the cockroaches along with their pranks (as seen in the episode 'Priceless Roaches' and 'So Lonely'/'Alone at last') followed by nothing interesting happening in his life. Despite the constant mayhem caused by the cockroaches, Oggy has developed a sort of love–hate relationship with them, having lived with them for a long time.

Oggy usually spends his time either watching TV or doing housework - when not chasing the cockroaches.

Oggy is a cat with a light blue body, green eyes, red nose, grey tummy and white feet.
