Gaffer is the bedraggled, one-eyed cat who was frequently seen hanging around backstage in the later seasons of The Muppet Show. The cat was introduced for the first time in episode 419.
Gaffer was occasionally involved in the on-stage antics as well, notably providing a distraction during Foo-Foo's dog act in episode 520 and playing the title role in "The Cat Came Back" sketch from episode 523. The character was also one of the denizens of the Happiness Hotel in The Great Muppet Caper.
Gaffer made a rare apearance without wearing an eyepatch in a Muppet Labs sketch in episode 422. Gaffer also appeared in the background in the Playhouse Video The Muppet Revue.
In 2004, the character was sculpted as a pack-in accessory for Palisades Toys' Pops Action Figure.
Trivia
Gaffer's name was used in The Art of the Muppets. However, a number of Muppet Show Fan Club newsletters referred to Gaffer as "Theater Cat".
