2. I suspect that Mr. Squiggles snorts antimony
<snip>
As noted, the company which imports the sold-out toy from China, Cepia, has not issued a Zhu Zhu pets recall.
The levels of antimony found in the products were 93 parts per million of Antimony in their fur. They also had 103 parts per million in their nose. The federal limit for Antimony is only 60 parts per million. Anyone with a young child can attest to the fact that almost everything enters the mouth at one time or another.

Antimony is a heavy metal. Technically, the term is misleading. Heavy metals are so classified and include all toxic metals irrespective of their atomic weight.

7. To make matters worse, when you press his back he says, "Don't you dare!", then farts and squeals!
