Pablo the Little Red Fox is a British animated cartoon series which originally ran from September 28 to November 17, 1999 in the United Kingdom and aired on CBBC and CBeebies for the first season. The main characters were the 3 little fox cub siblings named Pablo, Poppy and Pumpkin, their parents named Rose and Red, their friends, a cat named Finbar, an owl named Madam Owl, a seagull called Gil, a hedgehog named Helena, a frog called Fromage and a dog named Baxter. These characters were best friends.
