Hubie and Bertie are mouse characters in the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons. Though largely forgotten today, Hubie and Bert represent some of director Chuck Jones' earliest work that was intended to be funny, rather than cute. All seven of their cartoons were given Blue Ribbon reissues.

Though largely forgotten today, Hubie and Bert represent some of director Chuck Jones' earliest work that was intended to be funny, rather than cute. All seven of their cartoons were given Blue Ribbon reissues. Hubie and Bertie appear in the The Wheel O' Comedy episode segment, Devil Doggie, as caged pets of Elmyra. They try to break out of their cage by using nail files on the bars, but Elmyra and her new "pet," Dizzy, return before they can. She tells Dizzy that Hubie and Bertie are his new playmates, as he promptly tries to eat them, cage and all. Elmyra pulls the caged mice from Dizzy's hands just in time, as she saves their lives and causes the young Tasmanian devil to bite his own hands instead. Jones introduced Hubie and Bertie in the short The Aristo-Cat, first released on June 19, 1943. The plot of the cartoon would serve as the template for most future Hubie/Bertie outings: a character with some mental illness or degree of naïveté (here, a cat who doesn't know what a mouse looks like) is psychologically tormented by the pair. They tell the hungry cat that a bulldog is a mouse, leading to several painful encounters for the cat. Hubie is voiced by Michael Maltese and Bertie by Tedd Pierce; both men were screenwriters for Jones at the time.
