Donald the Cat - Sosban Bach

Some of you who are still young at heart or just old enough to remember may recall from the distant recesses of your fading memories the 1970's cartoon cat "Charley" who provided helpful advice and information to ignorant children everywhere. However, too many people often tend to forget about his more confused identical twin 'Donald', who also made the occasional impromptu appearance (on Welsh TV only).

In 1973 the incomprehensible pronouncements from Donald the Cat warned children against kiddie fiddlers, matchboxes, hot water and other everyday perils.

The quirky Donald Says animated series delivered often stark messages in a darkly comic way via the garbled meows of the ginger cat Donald.

Rhod Gilbert recently caused an unexpected revival and resurgance of sudden interest in 'Donald the Cat' after reminiscing about his mispent childhood watching Donald's catasphrophic and cataclysmic cat calamities on his Saturday morning show on Radio Wales.

In the 1990s the electronica pop group The Progeny famously sampled 'Donald Says' for their 1991 hit single "Sosban Fach",
reaching number 1 in the Welsh Singles Chart.

Donald now lives in retirement at Llanbobl Cat's Home.
