Casey

Casey (or Casey Cat) is a male cat character who first appeared in JumpStart Preschool (1995).

In the past, he was often a mascot character for JumpStart's Preschool media, alongside Kisha, Eleanor and Pierre.

Despite being a prominent character for quite some time, he has been dropped from the main cast of characters and ceases to appear. His last notable appearances were in the JumpStart Advanced series.

Appearance
In JumpStart Preschool (1995) and JumpStart Pre-K, Casey had cream-colored fur, one green eye, and one blue eye. He wore a white collar and a red tie.

In JumpStart Preschool (1999), he has orange fur and both of his eyes are green. He wears a red T-shirt and a blue backwards baseball cap.

In JumpStart Around the World, he is taller with skinnier arms and legs. His fur is yellow, and he has a tuft of dark orange hair hanging over his forehead. He still wears a red T-shirt and a blue backwards baseball cap.

In the JumpStart Advanced series, he has light orange fur and he wears a green T-shirt instead of a red one, but the rest of his appearance is fairly similar to his previous design.

Personality
Casey is often depicted as active and enthusiastic. He can also be somewhat prideful and reckless.

In the JumpStart Advanced series, his learning style is 'The Athlete'. JumpStart Advanced 2nd Grade's manual says, "Casey teaches children using his bodily-kinesthetic learning style. He learns best by doing, and he uses his body to get ideas across."

In JumpStart Preschool (1999), Casey has a bit of a mischievous streak. Sometimes he disrupts and annoys Kisha, and he tries to climb to high places where he has trouble getting down from.
