Snap me down! Sniz and Fondue were the only reason I watched KaBlam! back in the day (well okay, that and Action League, Now!!), I mean these guys wereepic, between Sniz's hyper activity, and Fondue's finickiness, they always had some wacky moments that really made them so much cooler than most of the other segments on KaBlam!
I just never could figure out what in the world they were supposed to be though... when I was a kid, we kind of believed they were cats or something, but it seems more people speculated they were some kind of rodents, like moles or muskrats, but now the current speculation (at least what's currently on Wikipedia) is that they're ferrets... really the only evidence of that is Sniz in the hospital watching a soap opera called "Ferret Valley Hospital".
Another interesting tidbit is that years before KaBlam!, Courage creator John Dilworth co-produced a pilot short that featured prototypes of the Sniz and Fondue characters, called Psyched for Snuppa, which centered more around Snuppa and Bianca, with Sniz and Fondue (who in the short went by his first name Squeaky, Fondue is his last name) as supporting characters... and there was also a different voice cast, with Meat Loaf as Snuppa... it can be viewed on Dilworth's site StretchFilms.com under "works".
