The Cheat is a character in the Homestar Runner animated cartoon series, and is Strong Bad's "sidekick" and primary partner in crime. When his name is invoked, it is always as "The Cheat" (with the definite article), and never merely "Cheat" (ie: Strong Bad addressing him as "Hey, The Cheat" instead of "Hey, Cheat"). He speaks entirely in a language of high-pitched squeaks and growls, which the other characters can apparently understand.
The Cheat is small and requires protection from larger predators, which is provided by his best friend Strong Mad. His appearance has been described as a cross between a Pikachu, a wedge of cheese, and an anvil. The Cheat has a gold tooth, although it is rarely seen. Though his yellow fur has some black spots like a Cheetah, his name also fits his passion for scheming and finding ways to cheat. This includes ransacking houses (usually Homestar's) and smoking.
