Cuddles: Savage Lord of the Jungle

A High-octane action-adventure toon series targeting kids six to 11, with a healthy dose of mischievous humor. There are strong characters with distinct personalities, good vs. evil, speed and noise!

Cuddles Savage Lord of the Jungle is the story of a pampered Beverly Hills toy poodle that was lost at sea and washes up on the mysterious Congo island which is inhabited by ferocious beasts of all kinds. The helpless little Cuddles is adopted by apes and raised in the ways of the jungle. With the help of his best friend Gilbert the sensitive New Age elephant, Cuddles embarks on his never ending quest to protect the innocent and fight for justice!

At 1 foot tall and weighing 3½ pounds, on the surface Cuddles looks like a cute harmless stuffed animal. But inside he is grim and cool like Clint Eastwood, brave and noble like Russell Crowe in “Gladiator”, and a charismatic leader like George Clooney in “Ocean’s 11”. Combined with the athletic prowess and abilities of Tarzan, this is one toy poodle you don’t want to mess with!

Gilbert the elephant is Cuddles’ loyal companion and will follow him even into certain doom, despite the fact that he’s a neurotic, overly sensitive wimp. Gilbert is very vain and is especially conscious about his weight. He’s into yoga, scented candles, crystals, and loves poetry. Gilbert is a drama king that will burst into hysterical tears over the slightest little thing. He comforts himself by stuffing his face with junk food and then ends up even more depressed for being a fatty.
