The octopus is Cthulu ( an elder god from the pen of H.P. Lovecraft ) one of the KI artists is a fan. The cactus pops up in many Cool Ranch puppet shows, and the alien is there for the "ancient astronaut" ( credit aliens for all of mankind's achievements ) theorists.

That living cactus you see, he's Saguaro Slim. Don't know about him, other than he's a living creature and presumably a wanted hunter and criminal in Cool Ranch. No matter.

KI throwing in running gag characters does give humor to the Puppet Shows. No doubt we may see more like them in new shows soon.

We also see him with Sam Bass, ( shown as a fish ) a real western outlaw.

also, when the cactus guy and the fish guy are chasing english bill into darkmoor, one of them is holding a gun with the name harry on its side. probably referencing dirty harry, another clint eastwood character.
