===Secondary characters=== '''Joe Doman''', Rob's friend and co-worker. One of the few people who gets along reasonably well with Bucky and has pet-sat Bucky and Satchel a few times. Although Joe was frequently seen in the strips early years, this has decreased since taking a job in France. Joe is also a fan of [[Rugby union|rugby]], having worn a jersey of the [[Scotland national rugby union team|Scottish national team]] on a golf outing. '''Francis Wilco''', Rob's father. A retired [[firefighter]] and former member of the [[United States Marine Corps]]. He reluctantly pet-sits Bucky and Satchel from time to time, has thinning hair, and is usually pictured with a cigarette dangling from his mouth. '''Fungo Squiggly''', the pet ferret of the neighboring Garcia family, who is Satchel's friend and Bucky's rival. Fungo does not have any audible speaking lines throughout the entire strip, but is able to communicate by writing out his thoughts (although Satchel can apparently understand ferret-speak). Fungo and Bucky take the impetus given by their rivalry as a chance to keep their hatred for each other going strong by setting traps for each other or playing tricks, such as Bucky's challenging Fungo to a duel or Fungo's stealing Bucky's closet space. The exact motive for Bucky's hatred of Fungo is unexplained, although it is possible that Bucky may mistake Fungo for some sort of rodent, as Bucky has referred to him as a "rat" or "rodent" at various times. '''Chubby Huggs''', a portly, interminably cheerful cat who believes positive reinforcement (mostly through hugging) solves all problems. Rob refers to him as the [[Dalai Lama]] of cats because of his peacemaking abilities. Once Chubby is locked in his hug position, he is unable to move for 10 minutes—a fact Rob used against him by tricking Chubby into hugging a teddy bear tightly so Satchel could carry him home. He once had a "little mouse friend" named Fowly Mouse who hated him and was vicious toward him, even though Chubby would take the threats as words of kindness, à la Ignatz Mouse and [[Krazy Kat]]. '''Mac Manc McManx''', Bucky's cousin from [[Manchester, England]]. Mac speaks in British slang and is an ardent supporter of Manchester City Football Club. Mac's father arrived in England during the [[Gulf War|First Gulf War]] from a place Mac only remembers being called "Otis", so Rob tells Bucky that his family is from Massachusetts, to which Bucky replies, "Blast! I'm a filthy communist!!!". Mac's mother is from [[Hartlepool]].<ref>Conley, Darby. "Dumb Heart: A Get Fuzzy Collection". p. 52</ref> Mac spent three and a half years at Rob's apartment and has come back and forth since that time. It is implied that Rob originally let Mac stay at the apartment since he and Satchel never came up with an effective way of getting Mac to leave.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://comics.com/get_fuzzy/2010-12-28/|title=Get Fuzzy Comic Strip, 28 December 2010|author=Darby Conley|work=GoComics|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101231190749/http://comics.com/get_fuzzy/2010-12-28|archive-date=31 December 2010}}</ref> '''Foodar''' is a Canadian cat with a radar-like-seventh sense (according to Bucky all cats have six senses, the sixth being knowing which humans are afraid of them or dislike them so they can sit on their laps) that allows him to detect food at great distances (though he doesn't bother detecting fruit or vegetables). His name is a [[portmanteau]] of 'food' and 'radar'. '''Oreo''' is Satchel's friend and love interest from his puppy days, but over the years she seems to have lost interest in him. She has the fur patterns of a Border Collie, has black and white fur, and wears a collar with a heart-shaped medallion. '''Ira Chihuahua''' is a generally irritable [[Chihuahua (dog)|Chihuahua]] who first appeared in Satchel's dog conference. Ira prefers to go by his initial, I (as a play on the term "ai chihuahua"). He apparently likes to play in garbage and once contracted [[Helminthiasis|worms]]. '''Shakespug''' is a small pug who wears a green dishwashing glove, and usually applies Shakespearean quotes to his speech. Shakespug also seems to understand Mac Manc McManx the best through his "Brit-speak". '''Motor''' is a dog who is Satchel's friend. He is 3/4 Belgian Tervuren and gets offended when someone calls him a German Shepherd.
