Dibble, previously only an implement for making holes for planting seeds, has acquired a second meaning in the vernacular as slang for police officers. Dibble's appearance was modeled on Allen Jenkins, who did his voice. The only reason that he wanted to be rid of them was that Top Cat and his gang were constantly attempting to earn a quick dollar-usually through an illegal scam. ДЄ frequent plot-line revolved around the local policeman, Officer Charles 'Charlie' Dibble, and his ineffective attempts to evict the gang from the alley. Another possible source material was Hokey Wolf, a segment on The Huckleberry Hound Show, which also had parallels to The Phil Silvers Show. Maurice Gosfield, who played Private Duane Doberman on The Phil Silvers Show, also provided the voice for Benny the Ball in Top Cat (Benny's rotund appearance was based on Gosfield too).Д®ven Arnold Stang's voicing of Top Cat strongly resembled Phil Silvers' voice. It has also been said that the Bowery Boys influenced the show.

Top Cat and his gang were inspired by characters from the popular situation comedy You'll Never Get Rich (later called The Phil Silvers Show).

The central character, Top Cat-called T.C. Originally broadcast on Wednesdays, Top Cat was co-sponsored by Kellogg's and Bristol-Myers ( Bufferin).
