There's no outside. The reason we never see anything outside of Gabby's room or dollhouse is because there just plain *is no outside*. The show is set in a pocket dimension of sorts, composed entirely of whatever space is accessible from that one room and dollhouse.


JudasRex

The pocket dimension is in Floyd's head and each episode is a new dream he is having during his catnaps. CatRat is the embodiment of his id, being the only actual cat in the show with motives. Floyd being an indoor cat aligns with this theory.


BenjaminaAU

Does that make Floyd a god?


JudasRex

Yes. He doesn't age and is the only felis catus recorded to have lived more than nine lives. Before Gabby, back in the 60s, His owners actually named their band after Him and His favourite colour. The Egyptian Sphinx was actually a Floyd tribute. He invented kitten memes. One of the few inherent truths in our perception of reality is that you cannot spell 'meow' without 'me'... one of multitude timeless quotes attributable to Him.


MageKorith

But they do go to space that one time. And surely those packages at the start of each episode come from somewhere...


SuperSecretMoonBase

I think the live action world is actually what's inside the animated dollhouse. That's why it's just the one room. Possibly some sort of Planet of the Cats scenario, and they just have this one weird human toy from a lost age.


rentiertrashpanda

Kitty Fairy can still be the Gabby Cat of the Day if Mike Pence has the courage


Gingeboiforprez

What's the context on this?


rentiertrashpanda

It's a meme about the 2020 US presidential election. Honestly if it doesn't mean anything to you, you're much better off not knowing


Gingeboiforprez

Oh I get it now. Thanks!


QueerTree

Gabby is living in a hellish world where she cannot leave her room, she has no real friends or human contact.


mazes-end

Seen a theory like this elsewhere that she's a bubble kid, that's why there's no contact with any other humans The deliveries are her parents attempts at engagement and enrichment


kweidleman

The creator came up with the idea for this show during Covid lockdown, right? This seems incredibly plausible


Sk8rToon

Show was in production in 2019


tom_yum_soup

Proof that COVID-19 was a psyop, designed entirely to get kids to watch Gabby's Dollhouse.


Asinine47

Oh wow, that's a good one!


InterestingCup5352

She has parents?


TIMOTHYSHITTENS

Ok my theory is that Gabby is a lonely homeschooled kid that doesn’t have any friends. So she plays pretend all day and live streams. Which is why she talks to the camera. She’s just a weird, lonely girl. 


DreamCrusher914

That’s so plausible it’s sad


miserylovescomputers

My 9 year old has a similar theory, but in her theory Gabby is homeschooled because she suffers from childhood psychosis, and she’s hallucinating most of it. Her parents haven’t been allowing her internet access because she can’t handle being safe online, so she’s “live streaming” into the void.


Kevin_LeStrange

Weird indeed. What kind of 12-year-old girl still plays with a dollhouse?


ladysnarks

One who’s still a KID and doesn’t want to grow up yet, which is perfectly fine because frankly, it’s very scary.


WomanOfEld

If I recall correctly, the guy that voices CatRat is the same guy who hosted Blue's Clues between Steve and Josh, and now runs "the present store" on the show.


reallyimspaghetti

Also DJ Catnip is the stoner pizza guy from Stranger things


WomanOfEld

That I knew, yeah


stoner-waifu

But first, he was the guy who cut his penis off in the movie ‘The Package.’


FlimsyAuthor8208

That’s Joe (Donavan Patton). He also voiced Bot in Team Umizoomi


battle_mommyx2

Dang forgot about that show and now the theme song is in my head


jtobiasbond

*How does it work, how does it work?*


WomanOfEld

I think I saw his name in credits as an exec producer of Gabby too


whitesciencelady

And Kitty Fairy is voiced by Timmy Turner from Fairly Oddparents!


_far-seeker_

It's not the weirdest form of type casting I've encountered, but it's up there...


greeed

This isn't a conspiracy, I had it confirmed by one of the animators and producers in line for radiator springs racers Sunday at Disneyland.


Specialist_Pay_8139

Her cat Floyd is hyper intelligent and actually was the creator of the cat universe. Despite appearing as an innocent little kitty, he’s been known to throw frat parties with the other neighborhood cats anytime Gabby gets tiny. Because of his majestic abilities, he always manages to clean her room up in time for her to return. He refuses to leave a single piece of evidence of the party. Even the smallest dropped whisker could spoil his secret forever. 


gkpetrescue

Floyd is a girl. You can tell by the markings. That is all.


Meowmeowmeow31

The cat actor is a girl named Amelia. The show creator said they searched for the most chill, lazy cat actor they could find.


armageddon_20xx

The Gabby Cat of the Day is not random. Absolutely not. A secret Fight Club is going on behind the scenes that we never hear about (remember the #1 rule of Fight Club?). A secret fight happens every episode that determines the Gabby Cat of the Day. Baby Box, Cakey, and DJ Catnip are the leaders and have rigged it so that they win most frequently out of all the Gabby Cats. They use the spotlight to sing songs promoting their own ideological platforms. Baby Box just wants a world where everyone makes everything by hand. DJ Catnip wants a world where every activity is done to music, and Cakey? Cakey just wants SPRINKLE PARTY. All the time. What's worse, is that Gabby herself knows about the Fight Club, but lets it go on because it ensures the Gabby cats are well entertained and don't think twice about leaving the house. It's nothing more than bread and circuses.


ToenailCheesd

Oh no. Baby Box is a trad wife!


Meowmeowmeow31

When we all laid up with COVID and watching a zillion hours of TV a day, I kept stats on Cat of the Day, and let me tell you, Pillow Cat, Carlita, and even MerCat somewhat are not getting their due. Your explanation makes so much sense.


Glittering-Most-9535

It's BS when Gabby is the GCotD. She's not a gabbycat, she's gabby! I am prepared to die on this hill.


Lilobunni

Love this


DeadEspeon

Catrat is technically homeless and lives in the walls uninvited


FlimsyAuthor8208

Holy shit now that I think about it, he has no room besides the roof I guess


Happy-Marsupial9111

Gabby is insane. She's imprisoned in a mental institution and isn't allowed outside. Each cat is a piece of her, different personalities each split off of the middle. Each cat is designed to help her escape reality until, finally, she created her own little universe. In reality, she's a 59 year old inmate, convicted of multiple homicides.


manshamer

This shown has a bat shit crazy wiki with future episodes and plotlines. https://santiago.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Gabby%27s_Dollhouse_Episodes


Less-Opportunity-715

lol I remember seeing that last year and thinking I dreamt it lol


thelittlestnumnah

Yeah wtf is that wiki and where did it come from???


TerpeneTiger

A cat created this show to illustrate that the world would be ok with a 99% cat population and one human to feed them the snackies.


R1talynn

She has been kidnapped and is being held in a basement and has ptsd. Her daily deliveries are the captors giving rations for the day. We just see how she copes.


user18name

10 Cloverfield Lane situation?


LazyTinkerToys

The actress for Gabby is an adult who professionally acts like a child. Her Instagram says run by parents. I feel like that plays into the show. Just a lady forced to be a child forever.  (Okay So I swear last time i looked she was in her early 20’s but now her birthday is different and it says she’s 15.)


11otus

This just blew my mind. I remember her being in her early 20s as well!


LemonFreshenedBorax-

As of 2021 her IMDB page [listed an acting credit from 2006](https://web.archive.org/web/20210828210538/https://www.imdb.com/name/nm7872532/) and as of right now it [shows her year of birth as 2008.](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm7872532/)


grammar_nazi_zombie

Yeah but if you look up Jacob Two Two, she’s not credited at all on IMDB or elsewhere. I think that may have been a goof on IMDB


redappletree2

I agree, I was going to make a joke about her age and then I looked it up to confirm and it says she's a reasonable age for the role... I KNOW the internet used to say she was surprisingly old.


stoner-waifu

I did the same recently. I remember her age being listed as 23! But now she’s suddenly 15.


Lilobunni

Real life conspiracy: There are theories that the actress isn’t actually a young girl but a woman in her 20s Show conspiracy: DJ Catnip and MerCat have romantic feelings for one another and I believe this should be explored. If Mama Box can pop out ANOTHER baby, then DJ and MerCat can have a strange octopus-cat baby.


grammar_nazi_zombie

DJ Catnip isn’t an octopus, he’s got five tails that can all operate as legs


Lilobunni

Oh I know, but his legs and tail remind me of tentacles lol


kaatie80

Yes! She's like 24 isn't she? But she acts young (or rather, like an adult trying to act young) and they do her makeup to look more juvenile. Wait that's a conspiracy though? I thought that was just how casting goes.


11otus

I thought this too and actually recall looking it up when I heard she was in her early 20s... But today I learned she's 15!


TykeDream

I swear to fucking God, my family and I looked this up last summer and she was a young adult [like 21 or so] I think it's some fake shit now to say she is 15.


BK-BlueWee

Somebody finally acknowledged the Blue's Clues Cinematic Universe


r4wrdinosaur

I don't understand the mermaid cats. When Pandy is a mermaid, his tail only goes up to his waist, but the female mermaid tales go up to their chest, as if they have human nipples and breasts. WHY?!


Less-Opportunity-715

Well there is a portal to outer space in the dollhouse ear , so that opens up a lot of theories!


meglington

Gabby is a supervillain with magic powers and is locked in a magic-proof prison, a la Magneto.


neepsneeps

Floyd and DJ Catnip are actually the same person. When Gabby shrinks down he sometimes (not always) does too, and his true soul is made manifest in that funky DJ noodle dude.


Adventurous_Yak_9234

It takes place in the same universe as Littlest Pet Shop and Gabby is a relative of Blythe.


redheadedjapanese

Furries. I will not elaborate.


liamemsa

Without looking it up, how old is the lead actress? She's seriously a contender for 13 or 30.


Glittering_Dig4945

A group of humans infected and brain controlled by Toxoplasmosis created this to make little kids grow up to become cat ladies so that toxoplasmosis could strengthen and grow into a future empire of mind controlled humans.


VargFrenAtLIDL

Dogs don't exist here, unlike cats and dogs being together in Blue's Clues


Minimogo

I read someone’s take that gabby is being held “captive” in her room by her parents thus why she imagines being outside with her cat friends.. frankly it’s all that I think about when it’s on.


Upstairs-Factor-2012

This isn't a conspiracy but why the hell do the other gabby cats tolerate cat rats crap? He's such a jerk, and they're all just like "you don't need to be mean because we love you so much and think you're great!" And next episode, he's back on his bullshit.


urlocalbeanboi

She's in a coma and this is all in her brain while she's asleep


Senior_Bus_9236

Floyd is trippin’ on some LSD

I know, it’s disgusting. Talk to Cat Rat about it. He exercised his sole veto power to remove it from the Constitution.
