Character |
Wolfie is a character in Barbie as The Princess and the Pauper. He is a cat voiced by Ian James Corlett. Wolfie is owned by Queen Erika, and the princess of their kingdom, Princess Anneliese, looks identical to Erika. Anneliese has a cat, Serafina, who is Wolfie's love interest.
Story
When Princess Anneliese was allowed to go out into her kingdom for a day, she took her cat Serafina with her. Midas, a poodle belonging to the royal advisor, Preminger, also came with them. When Midas terrorized Serafina, Wolfie stood up for her and they became friends. Anneliese and Erika met, and also became friends. Anneliese was later kidnapped due to a plot by Preminger to take over her kingdom. Serafina was also taken with her. Julian, Anneliese's tutor and love interest, wanted to investigate what happened to Anneliese, so he asked Erika to pretend to be the princess. Wolfie and Erika stay in the palace.
Wolfie lets Erika know he is insecure because he doesn't act like a typical cat. Erika makes him feel better by singing "The Cat's Meow" to him. When Anneliese is rescued, Wolfie and Serafina are reunited. While Erika pretended to be Anneliese, she and Dominick fell in love. Julian and Anneliese were already in love with each other, but him rescuing her made their relationship even stronger. Anneliese and Julian, and Erika and Dominick had a double wedding. Wolfie and Serafina also had their own small wedding, and they had several kittens together.
Physical Appearance
Wolfie is a small calico cat with green eyes.
Personality
Wolfie is a cat with dog-like behaviour such as barking. He is kind and caring, but he was insecure about being like a dog. Erika made him feel better about it, so he became more confident in himself. Erika and Wolfie are very close, and she can tell when he is feeling sad. Even though he doesn't act like a typical cat, Erika loves him and encourages him to celebrate being himself. Erika thinks Wolfie is useful, and it makes her happy to see Wolfie playing. She told Wolfie she loves him how he is and that she would never stop loving him, no matter how he is. He is loyal to those he cares about, when he got word that Serafina, Princess Annalise, and Julian were in trouble, he went to go look for them.
Trivia
- According to Cat Breed studies, genetic determination of some coat colors in cats is linked to the X chromosome, so calicoes are nearly always female. Calico males generally have impaired vitality and are almost always sterile. In the movie, however, Wolfie has "many, many kittens."
- Because Erika's parents were poor, it is unlikely they were able to afford a cat for Erika. It is possible that Wolfie is a stray cat Erika takes care of.
- Wolfie makes a cameo in Barbie as The Island Princess as a sleeping cat that Queen Ariana's mice poison.
