The series is renowned for its colorful cast, distinct voice acting, and signature visual motifs. Each of the animal characters lives in a home colored to match their fur, complete with architectural features resembling their ears. They also drive customized, color-coordinated race cars during the show's frequent racing sequences.

A recurring gag concludes every episode: Nathan asks, 'Who will fall asleep first?', to which the answer is always Huck, falling asleep before Snagglepuss and Quick Draw.
