* Jerkass: Towards Spike. Many episodes such as Spike Gets Skooled, Ginger is very mean/harsh on him and clearly doesn't like as much as Tom. In one episode she asks Rick why he brought Spike with him on their trip and it "should be a vacation from him", while also putting Spike with the luggage while Tom gets to sit in the plane with them. In another episode Ginger decides to sell away Tyke's first baby collar without a care, which upsets Spike greatly.

to:

A married middle-class couple who were the owners of Tom and Spike.



* MenLikeDogsWomenLikeCats: Joan favors Tom while George favors Spike. That said, they still reward or discipline their pets fairly.






* {{Jerkass}}: He frequently [[DisproportionateRetribution pounds the snot out of Tom for any perceived slight, no matter how big or small it is]]. He also appears to enjoy hurting him, considering he's flashed {{Slasher Smile}}s before or after doing so. Indeed, his treatment of Tom is so bad that Spike and The Maid would be disgusted with how he treats Tom if they were to meet.
* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Due to the horrible way he mistreats Tom, this guy has violated a law against animal cruelty so many times that it's a wonder why he still hasn't been arrested and banned from animal ownership for life yet... until his final short, "Sorry Safari"; he gets mauled by a lion, attacked by an angry rhino, and ultimately tied to a stick alongside Tom and said rhino.

Added DiffLines:

* NoNameGiven: While he has no official name, some fans peg him as "Clint Clobber" (see {{Expy}} above), which is unfortunate that the original [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Clint Clobber]] has to be associated with this monster.

Added DiffLines:

* SlasherSmile: In "Cannery Rodent" he sports one of these when he's actually ''not'' trying to kill Tom, and is just toying with him. When he does actually want Tom dead, he looks supremely pissed off.

* OffstageVillainy: [[AllThereInTheManual According to the manual]] for ''Tom and Jerry Tales'' (the UsefulNotes/NintendoDS game), he stole Jerry's "special cheese stash", not that it's shown in-game.

* RecurringBoss: Expect to fight him frequently if you're playing the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance ''Tom and Jerry Tales'', ''Videogame/TomAndJerryTheUltimateGameOfCatAndMouse'', or the [[UsefulNotes/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem SNES]] platformer. It's most JustForFun/{{egregious}} in the first example as its kind of a BossGame.

* TacticalSuicideBoss: In several of his boss fights. During two confrontations with him in ''Tom and Jerry Tales'' (the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance game) for instance, he sometimes quits attacking to [[EnemyPosturing mock Jerry]], which gives the mouse the chance to attack him.
