[edit] The pets

• Spike (only voiced in the TV show once, and voiced by Bruce Willis only in Rugrats Go Wild!): The Pickleses' brown hound dog. Tommy deeply admires him. He is a Siberian Tiger Hound. Often takes the blame for Fluffy's wrong-doing, but usually is forgiven and given an apology. Has the urge to protect his human friends.
• Fifi (Voiced by Grey DeLisle): Grey poodle, who was originally a Parisian stray which Spike fell in love with in the second Rugrats movie. Now, lives with the Finsters.
• Spiffy (not voiced): The Pickleses' 2nd Dog whom Fifi and Spike (Original Pickleses' Dog) gave birth to. Spiffy's behavior was absurd, but Stu trained him in the very same episode he adopted him. Spiffy was grey (like Fifi) and had an oddly colored spot on his eye (like Spike).
• Pepper (not voiced): The Finsters' dog whom Fifi (Original Finsters' Dog) and Spike gave birth to was one of the two dogs that weren't sold. Chuckie and Pepper are both scared of everything. Chuckie wanted to teach him how not to be scared, and he succeeded. Chaz and Kira saw how much fun Chuckie and the other babies were having fun with Pepper, so they decided to let Kimi and Chuckie keep him. Pepper was orange (?) and had an oddly colored spot on his eye (like Spike). Originally,he was simply called Puppy, but eventually the Finsters found out that Pepper was a perfect name for him.
• Fluffy (not voiced): Angelica's white cat whom Angelica loves dearly, but who always causes trouble for the others, particularly Spike. She has the same hair style as Angelica.

[edit] Other characters

• Reptar (Unknown voice actor): A big green dinosaur reminiscent of Godzilla. Tommy and the other Rugrats love him; Reptar products such as cars, clothes and candy are frequently seen on the show. Reptar was a main character in Rugrats in Paris and had his own theme park called Euro Reptarland (Which is obviously a parody of Disneyland Paris). There was a giant Reptar robot there, which the babies piloted and fought against Jean Claude. Later on in the years, reptar has a major part playing in the series all grown up, where memories from the babies life comes into the episodes.
• The Dummi Bears: A cartoon watched by the babies. It is a spoof of Disney's "Gummi Bears" Cartoon and Nelvana's "Care Bears". Suzy's father Randy Carmichael was a writer for the show, and in one episode, the babies are taken to a movie theater to see the Dummi Bears movie (they escape from their parents to go see the Reptar movie, and cause havoc in the movie theater)
• Taffy (voiced by Amanda Bynes): Aspiring singer, guitar player, and a babysitter for the kids. The character was introduced to the series around 2003, but was only seen in 3 or 4 episodes.
• Dr. Lipschitz (voiced by Tony Jay): Child psychologist expert and instructor whose books Didi and Chaz obsessively consult, although Betty dislikes him. Originally a "never-seen" character and referred to only as the author of his baby expert books, he later became a recurring character in the series' second run, making occasional visits to the Pickleses' household.
• Jonathan (voiced by Rene Auberjonois in "Mommy's Little Assets", Dan Castellaneta in "Jonathan Babysits"): Charlotte's assistant, whom Charlotte is usually seen talking to on the phone. Also originally a "never-seen" character, he was also introduced in later episodes. He stole Charlotte's job in New York and later became her assistant again. He tried to steal her job again, but to no avail.
• Cynthia: Angelica's toy doll. Angelica loved Cynthia very much and was her favourite toy, she would often get very distraught when Cynthia left her sight. Despite this, however, Angelica would tear the hair from Cynthia's head and blame her for troubles that Angelica found herself in. During the babies' many adventures that may involve having to use tools to dig holes in the ground, Angelica would use Cynthia as her own shovel!
