He is so cute! And it is very amusing when he bonks NPCs or other players over the head ^^

...this companion may cause some raised eyebrows in town if one uses the Critter Emotes add-on UI. =P

I loved this pet despite getting bonked in the head, but when I was running last night with my husband and brother and they kept freaking out about something stunning them I almost fell out of my chair laughing. Now I adore this little squirrel! Too perfect!

My first opinion of this pet was how amazing the higher textures look on him.

The second was how hilarious he is when he hits other people with his namesake. hahaha!

I was coming to comment on the size of him in the companion window but it looks like I got beat to it. Anyway it is a giant squirrel and shows him from waist down and the name fits.

Breanni, although I love taking care of squirrels, can't you send one over that doesn't feel like hitting me over the head every so often? I mean we gnomes have to stick together and my cloth hood doesn't work too well versus nuts, only swords and axes and the squirrel is bigger then you would think....

Thank you in advance,

a concerned gnome with a terrible headache.

What a pleasant surprise to find him in my mailbox today! As soon as I summoned him I /tickle'd him and that's when I realized just how much fun you can have with this pet!

Currently on the live realm, the companion picture of Nuts is huge and you can really only see the front bottom half of the squirrel. I wonder if this is a bug or an attempt at humor on the parts of a Blizzard programmer. Either way, I'm sure it will be fixed soon.
