Bob

Bob (or ニコバン in Animal Forest) is a Lazy Villager in the series. His name is probably based off the word bobcat. Some people say Bob is the first character, being born on January 1st. Bob walks around town a lot which is uncommon for lazy characters.

Appearance
Bob is a purple cat with darker purple polka dots, half-closed, lazy yellow eyes, light purple paws and a striped tail. Bob is a boy, but he wears pink with a dress, for that may be his favorite color- he never says. Although he looks like he wouldn't be very outgoing, he walks around town a lot. Lazy characters usually just stay in their house and crash by themselves until you come over and talk, unlike this purple fellow. Of course he'll be in his house at some point- he won't always be outside.

House
He collects furniture such as kiddie themed items and lovely furniture. His home in every Animal Crossing series includes most of the Kiddie Set, along with the Kiddie Wall and Kiddie Floor. He likes food. He also likes fish. Since he tends to challenge you with fishing, it's just an excuse to add fish to his house.

Personality
Bob is one of the most popular characters in the series, likely because of his "get along with anyone" attitude along with the fact that he references everything to food. He dreams of diving into a pool full of, as an example, chocolate or other items. The initial phrase "pthhhpth" is the sound a cat makes when they spew out a hairball. Bob likes to catch bugs and fish and will stay in your town for quite a while. He likes walking outside especially on rainy days... possibly to show off his umbrella? It's seems unusual for a cat to like rain, but this cat sure does.

Bob likes to invite you over to his house and may ask you what you like about in it. If you tell him what you like, you will make him happy. His personality does not suit his pic quote though. Although he sometimes acts strange, he will always make you laugh. But remember, just because he seems like a cheerful little guy, if you push him around, he can get mad (as any character would), run inside his house, pack up, and move out forever- unless he decides to move back. Don't swat him with a net either. That's just mean- and he's not mean, so why would you do it? He'll just get depressed.
