==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The naming of Louise and her owner, Telma, is an obvious reference to Thelma and Louise, the dastardly female duo from the [[wikipedia:Thelma and Louise|1991 movie of the same name]].
*During development of {{TP|-}}, Louise was initially meant to accompany [[Darbus]]. This can be seen in early concept art where she rests on his shoulder.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= For some reason, this concept art depicts Telma's cat riding on Darbus's shoulder. It seems that, initially, the feline played a role in his story.|book=HH|page= 189}}</ref>
