• First Impression: Well as I’m sure my regular readers know, I’m a sucker for stuffed animals. Shredding them to pieces is one of my favorite activities. So when Mom and Dad took me to this “fu-fu” pet store called Diggidy Dog in Carmel, CA. I just knew I had to get something to destroy. Fortunately, they had this 26 inch giant monkey stick. The center of the monkey had my favorite “grunt” squeaker that my old hedgehog had. Then it had the normal small squeakers in each of its paws. Oh how I loved destroying that monkey. I tore its head off within a couple days. Dad has made his own Suture Needle just for type of thing. He quickly sutured the monkeys head back on with fishing line, and I was back at it. I then ripped off his arms. Dad just sutured the holes shut and trashed the arms. About that time I had already ruined the large “grunt” squeaker, it no longer made any noise. I then proceeded to rip the monkeys head off again. It was harder this time because of the fishing line, but the fabric eventually ripped, not Dad’s stitch work. Dad decided that was enough and the toy went into that big brown bin outside… I really want to get into that bin, I know all my old toys are in there…
• Conclusion: If your parents are willing to buy you toys just so you can destroy something, this one was fun. It won’t last long, but it grunts, squeaks, and shreds well. 2.5 out of 4 paws because although it was fun, it just didn’t last long enough.

2.5 out of 4 paws!
