Hattie McDoogal is an elderly woman who owns one share of "Planet Ka-jigger". She's the landlady of the building that Fry and Bender lived in briefly as well as the late colleague of Professor Farnsworth, Dr. Mbutu. She has a lazy eye and two deceased husbands. She loves her pet cats, one of which she keeps in her purse, as we see in "Future Stock". Even though she owns just one share in Planet Express, she was once the tiebreaker in a CEO election between Farnsworth and Steve Castle.
Although she was briefly with him on the Titanic in "A Flight to Remember", she seems to dislike Professor Farnsworth. She refers to him as a "cat-hater" and seemed pleased at the fact he was receiving a mercy killing during the events of "The Tip of the Zoidberg".
Her memory is fairly poor, and she tends to replace words she doesn't remember with such nonsense words as "whatchacallit" and "kajigger".
