Toots

Toots is a small, pink anteater-like creature which, while incapable of speaking, makes high-pitched cooing noises when happy and is kept as a pet by some of the series' other characters. In Banjo-Kazooie, Toots sits beside Rubee the Snake Charmer and appears to sing along as Rubee plays his pipe.

In Banjo-Tooie, Toots sits beside King Jingaling on his throne. When Jingaling's life is sucked away by B.O.B., Toots hides from the zombie Jinjo in a hole in the cushion with only its eyes visible. When the Banjo and Kazooie restore Jingaling's life force, Toots rejoins his master's side on the throne.

There is some debate over whether Rubee's Toots is the same one as Jingaling's, or if they are different individuals of the same species, as evidenced by a slight size difference.
