Contents
Plot[edit]
The series chronicles the adventures of Scaredy, an energetic squirrel, and his best friend Dave, a skunk. Their antics take place in fictional Balsa City, and often at the local supermarket the Stash "N" Hoard, where Scaredy works as a stacker.[1]
Characters[edit]
Main[edit]
- Scaredy (voiced by Terry McGurrin) – A smart, germophobic, and occasionally shy squirrel who works as a stacker at a grocery store called Stash "N" Hoard and is fond of cleaning.
- Dave (voiced by Jonathan Gould) – Scaredy's best friend who is a blue skunk.
- Nestor (voiced by Patrick McKenna) – Nestor is a yellow canary who is the manager of Stash "N" Hoard. He is also Scaredy's boss and one of his enemies.
- Momma (voiced by Jayne Eastwood) – A grouchy pastel pink bird who owns the Stash "N" Hoard, and who is Nestor's mother. Momma makes surprise appearances at any time, and is fond of firing people.
- Paddy (voiced by David Berni) – A gray, egotistical ferret who is always making trouble for Scaredy.
- Richard – Richard is Scaredy's inanimate pet plant. Richard seems to be slightly sadistic as seen when he forces Scaredy to wear the "Hat of Pain".
- Sally (voiced by Linda Kash) – A turquoise trout who is deeply in love with Scaredy. Sally has lots of confidence and she thinks she and Scaredy could be a good couple, when in truth Scaredy is freaked out by her.
- Mildred (voiced by Jamie Watson) – A frog who works at the Stash "N" Hoard and seems to be Nestor's only friend. She is always seen drinking a bottle of soda and is constantly burping.
- Buck (voiced by David Berni) – A beaver who works at the Stash "N" Hoard. He is friends with Scaredy and Dave.
- Hatton (voiced by Dwayne Hill) – A donkey who works at the Stash "N" Hoard. He is friends with Buck, Scaredy and Dave.
Recurring[edit]
- Millie (voiced by Laurie Elliott) – A strange cow that lives in Balsa City. Often seen dancing. She also licks Scaredy in his sleep.
- Philmore (voiced by Terry McGurrin) – An excited, nervous, fast-talking peacock who frequents the Stash "N" Hoard.
- Sue – A female version of Scaredy whom Scaredy has a crush on. She wears a green dress and has a pony-tail. She first appeared in the episode "Acting Silly", but also appears at the beginning of the theme song.
