The Baker's Boy is an anthropomorphic cat.

Description

The Baker's Boy is an effeminate fellow who, in 1931, was friends with Kat Nipp and delivered sweets to his shack. Despite his large physique and intimidating appearance, he's actually a rather polite polite and harmless guy.

Behind the scenes

The Baker's Boy first appeared on February the 14th, 1931 in a strip in the Mickey Mouse vs. Kat Nipp continuity. In this appearance, the only known outing for the character, he is kicked by Mickey Mouse, more aggressive in this strip than in modern iterations, and mocks his friend Kat Nipp as a "cream-puff inhaler" for his association with him. In a 2010 reprint by Boom Comics, he was changed to a girl, presumably to remove the implication that he might be a homosexual man, and Mickey's dialogue was altered so that he refers to Nipp as a "cake-eater" instead of a "cream-puff inhaler."
