Protagonists

  • Blythe Baxter is the main character of the series, an aspiring fashion artist and designer. She is very kind and compassionate and always assists others in need, including the pets, Mrs. Twombly, her new friends, Youngmee, Sue and Jasper, and even Whittany and Brittany Biskit. She has dark brown hair and light blue eyes, but she also wears "fashionable and unique" outfits. Blythe, along with her father, Roger Baxter, moved to an apartment in Downtown City above a pet store called the Littlest Pet Shop. Soon after moving into the building, Blythe hits her head and discovers that she can now be able to talk and understand animals. She comes to enjoy working at the Littlest Pet Shop not long after she saves the store from going out of business. Though she has wanted to be on TV all her life, she is also extremely camera-shy. Blythe is also a little closer to Russell, her best friend. Blythe's mother was Lauren Smith before adopting the surname Baxter upon marrying Roger, and Lauren's former pet tortoise Speedy Shellberg claims that Betty also may have talked to animals, a fact that was confirmed by her father in the series finale. Throughout the series, several jokes were made about the expanse of the size of Blythe's head.
