Best Tom & Jerry Characters

The Top Ten
1 Tom Thomas "Tom" Cat is a fictional character and one of the title characters in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's series of Tom and Jerry theatrical cartoon short films.

Tom actually is conflicted between his natural instinct and his good soul. His natural instinct shows him as a predator which often ends up with him trying to devour Jerry. However we have seen his good heart in various episodes like one instance being him sparing a ducklings life and actually ending up parenting him due to his good heart, another being him sparing Jerry's life twice in order to save his owners baby.

Tom is the main hero and main protagonist in t&j,he may be not cunning as cunning as jerry but he is very funny and has a lot of skills. In my childhood I always liked tom instead of jerry because of his sense of humour and funny personality and I always thought we in my childhood that tom is cat so he is clean than jerry who is a mouse and he can also take part in different activities for example sports etc,that jerry is unable to do. I never admired Jerry's smartness because he has an evil mind to annoy and irritate tom. Tom has never killed jerry and has always tried to befriending him but jerry has always thought we that tom was trying to eat him and never tried to befriend tom, so now who is the good guy? Tom or Jerry I think tom is good guy what do you think I am very happy that I liked heroic tom instead of villainous jerry in my childhood and still now. I always admired toms intelligence of weapons expertation his greatness of saving jerry a lot of times and his funny ...more

I like tom, I hate Jerry. Why does every character always side with Jerry but never ever sides with tom? Jerry is the one who makes tom chase him because of that, tom just wants some piece and quiet until this dirty ugly gay mouse comes

He is the star of this show. I personally dislike Jerry. Tom is a cat who just wants to live a good and normal life, but it's Jerry who most of the times disturbs him, thus starting the chase.

2 Jerry Gerald "Jerry" Mouse is a fictional character and one of the title characters in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's series of Tom and Jerry theatrical cartoon short films. He is a mouse that gets chased by Tom, but tries to trick Tom so he won't catch him.

My personal favourite of the 2, those that badmouth him are you forgetting shorts like the lonesome mouse, dog trouble, baby butch ect where he teamed up & helped tom? Love the mischevious but sweet nature

He is the best tom and jerry character because as well as he is the main character well both the characters are protagonist but the better protagonist between the two is of course Jerry.

He is the best tom and jerry character many people's got him wrong but he is just a mischievous mouse at times but generally he is on good side with Tom and also he is basically good.

Jerry is the no.1 and the best character in t&j he may be not funny as tom but his tricks can compete toms funny personality in my childhood his tricks has entertained me every time. Jerry was my favourite character from my childhood and he is still my favourite he is sweet and smart. I think in t&j Jerry is the main hero and he is best than tom I am not saying that tom is a villain but is not the main hero in t&j our main hero is jerry not tom

3 Butch

I love Butch's street cat attitude and somewhat Jersey accent?
He's sometimes the rival and sometimes the sidekick.
Anyway he's a great add to the series

The street black cat and Tom's rival. He has some guest appearances.

He, Lightning, Meathead, and Topsy need their own show.

4 Nibbles

Added a little extra trouble for Jerry when trying to get away from Tom.
Not only did he have to make sure he got out alive, but he had to make sure the still learning kid came out okay.

This guy is so funny. But in the 2014 show he sucks like a retarded monkey. Why is he so darn annoying in the show but so good in the cartoon?

The gray baby mouse. He has some guest appearances. He considers Jerry as his mentor.

Nibbles is my favorite...so cute! Fantastic is Nibble Mousketeer when he sing "Alouette" I love him...

5 Spike

A dog. He's Tom's bully. Jerry takes advantage of the fact that spike hates tom (cat & dog relationship) and creates situations where tom almost always gets beaten by him

I like this character, but my favorite is Tom. He is mean to Tom, but he's a dog and Tom's a cat. So, that doesn't bother me much.

6 Robyn Starling

The movie was way overhated. She adds a welcome touch of heart and song to the franchise

7 Quacker the Duck

A cheerful duck. He trusts almost everyone and bears no hard feelings for anyone (even Tom). He's good friends with Jerry.

Such an awesome character. Yakky Doodle was made because of him. But it wouldve been cool if he alone had his own spinoff.

8 Muscle Mouse

Jerry's twin cousin. He's extremely powerful and can beat Tom black and blue. Featured in an episode.

I hate this mouse. He tortures any cat in his way when cats are just trying to be cats.

9 Lickboot

A awesome character!

10 Robyn Starling's dad
The Contenders
11 Lightning
12 Toodles Galore

Her name is Toodles Galore. Gosh people are stupid.

Her name is Toodles Galore.

She has mouse girl!

13 Dr. Applecheek
14 Topsy Cat

He, Butch, Lightning and Meathead should have their own series.

15 Captain Kiddie
16 Droopy

I'm so happy. I just love him he's the funniest.

In 80s, 90s he is best

17 Tyke
18 Cuckoo the Canary

One of Jerry's best friends. She dislikes Tom more than even Jerry does. She lives in a cage and is owned by the same owner as Tom's (whenever she appears).

Reminds me of my own bird!

19 Puggsy
20 Meathead Cat

He, Lightning, Topsy and Butch should have their own show.

21 Pristine Figg
22 Frankie DaFlea

We are friends to the end!

23 The Goldfish
24 Muff

They could have their own mini-adventures.

25 Porpoise

In the beach and in cruise ship episodes, the shark does the job of Spike, chasing after Tom whenever he is in the ocean.
