Writing Prompt Wednesday: What is your favorite cartoon character?

My favorite cartoon character is Pepe Le Pew and has been since high school. Yeah Pepe is probably not as cute as maybe Mickey Mouse or Bugs Bunny since one of his most known qualities is that he smells (he’s a skunk so of course).
