* UnderStrangeManagement: The Department of Lost and Found is run by a simple minded antropomorphic dog who inherited it from his father. His main employee is an 8-year-old kid who looks for missing things, and his assistant is a cat who alternates between GadgeteerGenius and ApatheticPet. The rest of the staff consists of a rabbit with an eyepatch who is remodeling things seemingly at random and a mild-mannered fuzzy-headed monster who seems to be the OnlySaneMan.

* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Tiggy's colleagues: Boss is a KindheartedSimpleton who apparently can't bring himself to fire Tiggy ([[NegativeContinuity despite doing so before]]), Nuritza is the mean-spirited one who often scams people, and This Guy is more serious than Boss but a generally friendly guy.

Sometimes, This Guy and Boss can interchange, as Boss has his episodes of being stubborn, and This Guy stays friendly for the most part.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The original ''Tiggle Winks'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPGrxmxWMSQ pilot]] is much more zany and surreal in tone, akin to Chilian's previous work on ''Uncle Grandpa'', as opposed to the relaxed WorkCom vibe of the final series. Aside from Nuritiza and This Guy, who only appeared as cameos, Tiggy was also a {{Manchild}} as opposed to being a young kid, whilst Gweeseek was more of a genius cat than the ApatheticPet she eventually became, and Boss was smarter than he was in the series. The Department of Lost and Found is totally different, and has several employees compared to the MinimalistCast of the show.

* ApatheticPet: Tiggy's cat Gweeseek is supposed to be a genius, yet spends most of her time doing typical cat stuff -- batting things off ledges, lying on sunbeams, that sort of thing. She mostly ignores Tiggy's commands and often does things that impede their missions. OnceAnEpisode, however, Gweeseek will build a device out of random junk to help Tiggy. Whether she's ObfuscatingStupidity or genuinely apathetic towards Tiggy unless he's in real danger is left unclear.

He tries to convince himself that there's nothing to be afraid of... until he encounters the cellar feller!

* MyInstinctsAreShowing: When not inventing (which is ninety percent of the time), Gweeseek just does what a cat naturally does. Sometimes this is to the detriment of her and Tiggy's work, like when she takes a hot dog without paying, or eats the millipede they were hired to find.
