Snagglepuss
Snagglepuss is a cartoon character created by Hanna-Barbera—a pink mountain lion known for his theatrical manner and catchphrases like "Heavens to Murgatroyd!" and "Exit, stage left!" The name sometimes describes someone dramatically flamboyant or prone to theatrical exits: He pulled a Snagglepuss and disappeared before anyone could object.
