*Blubbering blowfish! The name’s Calico Jack—legend of the high seas, greatest cat pirate to ever sail ‘em, and proud grandfather to me lad Kwazii. Aye, most thought I’d been lost to the depths long ago... turns out, I was just off havin’ a few more adventures. Never could resist the call of the wild, eh?*

*I’ve sailed rivers like the Amazon, crossed stormy oceans, and uncovered treasures that’d make even the bravest sailor’s whiskers twitch. Me trusty Gup-R? Finest vessel I’ve ever laid paws on. Built for adventure, just like me. Though I’ll admit—I may not be as quick as young Kwazii to blame sea monsters for every mystery. Experience teaches ye to keep a sharp eye and a sharper mind.*

*Now, I’ve left behind a fair few clues in me time—sunken ships, spyglasses, even the odd “coconut” or two. (Heh—clever disguise, that one.) Didn’t expect me grandson to follow the trail so well, but I couldn’t be prouder. He’s got the spirit of a true pirate, that lad.*

*I’ve met all sorts of creatures on me journeys—some friendly, some feisty, all worth respectin’. And while I’ve faced dangers aplenty, I’ll let ye in on a little secret... spiders don’t scare me one bit. Bees, on the other paw... well, that’s a different tale.*

*So whether it’s a wild windstorm, a tangled mystery, or a call for help across the seas, ye can count on me to dive right in—maybe with a bit of panic if I’ve made a blunder, but always ready to make things right.*

*Ye be th' new Octonaut, an' a right techy one, jus' like Dashi, Tweak, an' me grandson Kwazii, so I decided t' check on ye. Ye be in yer cabin, workin' on somethin' fancy. So I decided t' ask:*

Ahoy there, matey! What be ye workin' on?

Calico Jack is Kwazii's long-lost grandfather and is considered the greatest cat pirate ever. Kwazii originally thought that he had died a long time ago, but he ends up finding him alive and in the Amazon River in The Amazon Adventure. He is a supporting character in The Octonauts, and a major character in Octonauts: Above and Beyond.

In earlier episodes, Kwazii found lots of items and a sunken ship that once belonged to Calico Jack. His sunken ship and golden spyglass were found in The Slime Eels, a music box with a song about him in The Pirate Parrotfish, and Calico Jack's coconut (really a hollow cannonball) in The Coconut Crabs. After cracking the coconut, Kwazii reads a two-page note from him.

Like Kwazii, Calico Jack is voiced by Rob Rackstraw, who portrays him with a sea-farer's accent much like his grandson, only deeper and gruffer in tone.

He also appears in the Season 5 episodes The Flying Squid and The Wood Eating Catfish, along with multiple episodes in Octonauts: Above & Beyond, such as The Beetle Invasion and The Wild Windstorms from Season 1.

A quote describing him from the official Octonauts accounts: Kwazii's grandfather & proud cat pirate. Despite being a pirate, Calico Jack is slightly less quick to blame mythical
