- Freudian Excuse: He was apparently not very smart as a kid, and was made fun of because he couldn't even understand the Metric System. As an adult, he invented the Frontal Lobe Tonic which made him a supergenius, and plotted to replace the Metric System and English Measuring Units with his own measuring system M.A.S.S. (Morrie Arty Sized System), which only he would understand, making him the smartest person in the world.

Dr. Fu Manch Hugh is a Mad Scientist and a Chinese mystic who used to be the assistant of Dr. Morrie Arty, but eventually supplanted him as the head of the villain organization S.M.E.L.L.Y. (during his reign, it stood for Slightly Maniacal Evildoers and their Legion of Local Yokels). He started out as a lowly street cat in China, and eventually met an Alley Oracle who said that she sees the Pinwheel of Eternity in his future (she was a phony, but who cares). Ever since then, he became an adept of the esoteric way of the Scratching Post, convinced that it was his destiny to blow the Pinwheel (which can only be blown by the "true cat").
- Cats Are Mean: He is the second villainous feline in the franchise, after Russian Blue.
- Enlightened Antagonist: Parodied. He is an esotericist who speaks in Ice Cream Koans and haiku, and desires to be accepted by the priests of the Scratching Post as the Chosen One who can blow the Pinwheel of Eternity... For this reason, he hatches a scheme to change the Earth's orbit, which would obviously have catastrophic consequences.

- From Nobody to Nightmare: From a street urchin to the leader of the supervillain organisation S.M.E.L.L.Y.

- Yellow Peril: Obviously, since he is a Chinese villain based on the Doctor Fu Manchu.
Baron von Bluefield
Baron von Bluefield is a landowner and the leader of an unrecognized island nation somewhere not far from Canada who superseded Dr. Fu Manch Hugh as the boss of the villain organization S.M.E.L.L.Y. (standing for Scheming Masterminds Exhort Lowdown Laboring Yahoos). He will stop at nothing to make the world leaders admit him and his nation to the club, so he kidnaps a bunch of lemming hockey instructors who also take care of maple trees, threatening that there will be no more hockey and no more maple syrup unless his state is recognized.
- Aristocrats Are Evil: His aristocratic title doesn't make him any nicer.
- Expy: Of Ernst Stavro Blofeld.
