Very Scientific Descriptions for Cartoon Characters Game

Similar to the historical villain whitewashing game, this is another thing I invented out of boredom to play on long car rides. The rules of this game are that one person writes down a very scientific description of a cartoon character (as if you are giving a description of a biological specimen) and other people try to guess what he/she/it is. If you guess it right, you get to post one.

Here it goes:
Unlike other species under the phylum porifera, this animate specimen has the capability for locomotion along with communications capabilities with various marine life. His shelter is an oversized, spiny ovary of a angiosperm from the family Bromeliacae. Common rituals throughout a day of this organism include working at an institution to provide culinary services, which is operated by a decapod.

Ok, I guess it's my turn. I'm not very good at scientific descriptions, so bear with me.

One of my favorite cartoon characters is a Canis familiaris. He is sometimes confused for an animal belonging to the genus rattus. He is portrayed as being greedy, insane, delusional, paranoid, violent and insecure (in short, mentally unstable). He also has a Swedish cousin named Svën.

Stimpy is a Felis catus, not a Canis familiaris.

Alrighty then!

This is a small cerulean creature, with a skeletal structure that basically resembles those of the genus homo, but has a small appendage at the bottom of the vertebrae, which was assumed to be a small tail. It was found with red garments and facial hair that would usually be found on elderly humans. Dating techniques estimate an age of just under 550 years, and the subject has been observed performing unexplainable magical practices, which appears to be, at the very least, some form of alchemy.

The character I'm thinking of is an anthropomorphic creature to his friend, but is an inanimate object to others. He was named after an English philosopher. You'll never get this one.
