Bio[]
Thing 5 serves as the deuteragonist of Cat's misadventures, and is his owner. He found the Cat when he worked as a chimney sweep long before he became a magician (as mentioned in my version of "The Cat in the Hat (1971)"). He brought the Cat to life with a magic spell that made made him stand on two feet and talk. He loved the spell so much that he lef his cat that way. Thing 5 is more cartoon-y than the Cat (ex. getting flattened into paper) and has more magical powers. At times, he flips his cape over him and transforms himself into Bat-Thing if he wants to fight crime.
