APB Stuffed Squirrel

This may be a strange request.

For Christmas this past year we got our dogs a set of stuffed toys. It was a little tree with three squirrels. One of our dogs thought it was ok, the other one fell in love with the squirrels. She drags them around the house, drops them on peoples feet to get them to throw it, and is really the cutest thing in the whole wide world.

When the first squirrel died we set out to find replacements. Nothing we have tried has had the same success. However, at one pet store in Calgary we found some in the dog cages. We asked, and they USED to sell them separate from any set. These squirrels are out there.

To understand why I would go to such length for a stupid fucking dog toy you need to understand how cute the dog in question is. You can do that here.

So, have you seen this squirrel? Do you know where I can get some/many?

    Well, that is a pretty awesome looking dog.

    From what I can tell looking at the photo, the set in question is this here. It's made by a company called Multipet, and looking at their website, they don't make the set any more, or it's at least not in there catalogue any longer. However, the site linked above has the whole set for $10 US, so I suppose you could grab another entire set.

    Edit: I got bad information somewhere. They're actually made by a company called Kyjen. Here's the page in their catalogue. They have part numbers listed for the individual squirrels as well as links to distributors where you can buy their stuff, so you should be able to find one in the UK. (That is where you are, right?)

    Edit edit: These people sell replacements for $5.99.

    Buy a shit ton of them so you have them for a long ass time.

    My dog obsessed with this one mini soccer ball so we just bought like 20 of them, and for 8 years now, he still carries one around fucking everywhere.

    I'm wondering if those replacements are individuals, or a set. Seeing as the $10 set with the tree contains three of them.

    This thread turned out more wonderfully than I could have possibly imagined.

    It looks like the replacements are one for $5.99. It would be much cheaper to buy a bunch of the 3pack sets.
