Bee and PuppyCat is an American animated web series created and written by Natasha Allegri, and directed by Larry Leichliter. Fred Seibert serves as the series' executive producer, with producers Kevin Kolde and Eric Homan, as well Allegri co-producing the series. The series revolves around Bee (voiced by Allyn Rachel), an unemployed woman in her twenties, when suddenly she encounters a mysterious creature called PuppyCat (voiced by the Vocaloid program Oliver). She adopts this apparent cat-dog hybrid, and together they go on an intergalactic babysitting gig to pay her monthly rent.

The series began as a two-part episode, which was uploaded on Cartoon Hangover's YouTube channel as two 5-minute shorts as part of Too Cool Cartoons!, as well as a 10-minute video combining the two parts. Part one went online on July 11, 2013, while part two, as well as the full film, went online on August 6, 2013.

After garnering popularity online, Cartoon Hangover started its first Kickstarter project in order to fund additional episodes.[14] The Kickstarter was started October 15, 2013, and achieved its US$600,000 goal with 6 days left; by the end, they had raised $872,133, earning nine 6 minute episodes, of which the first would air in the summer of 2014.[15] As of its funding date, Bee and PuppyCat became the most successful animation Kickstarter in history, the #4 film/video Kickstarter (only behind three Hollywood based projects), and the #1 Kickstarter based on a YouTube video.[16]

In May 2014 KaBoom! Studios launched a Bee and Puppycat comic book.[17]

Bee and PuppyCat: The Series premiered November 6, 2014 with a second two-part episode.[18]

In December 2014, critic Robert Lloyd of The LA Times listed it as one of the best TV shows of the year.[19]
