'''Piddles''' is a character in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''.


==Biography==
'''Piddles the Cat''' is a character from the game, ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''. Piddles is [[Gruntilda]]'s meddlesome new sidekick created by [[L.O.G.]] after hearing that [[Klungo]] went off to make "ssstupid gamesss".
[[File:Piddles in Act 4 Nutty Acres.jpg|thumb|Piddles driving her car in Act 4 of Nutty Acres, "Cheatin' Witch."]]
Piddles is the sidekick of [[Gruntilda]], created by the [[Lord of Games]] as a replacement for [[Klungo]], who had gone off to make "ssstupid gamesss." After seeing Piddles for the first time, Gruntilda immediately kicks her far away. Piddles then, angry, jumps and bites the wire behind her connecting the container holding Gruntilda's skull to her body, causing her to run away with the [[Gruntbot]]s following her.


Piddles is later found in [[Nutty Acres]], where she is raced against. She was originally supossed to race [[Trophy Thomas]], but he was unable to because his "top racing tractor" was being repaired. When Piddles is defeated, Trophy Thomas thinks the duo [[Stop 'n' Swop|stopped the game and swopped something]] to win.
==Games==
===''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''===
After [[L.O.G.]] escorts [[Grunty]], [[Banjo]], and [[Kazooie]] to [[Showdown Town]], he gives Kazooie a [[Magic Wrench]] and Grunty asks what she gets. L.O.G. provides the answer with the real deal: an adorable purple cat (with extremely small legs) to replace her old, powerful henchman.


She appears again in the Act 3 of [[LOGBOX 720]], being sent by Gruntilda to polute the glubber pool of the console with cat litter, what would cause [[Bottles]] to have to shut it down. For Banjo and Kazooie to stop Gruntilda's plan, they need to win a race against her. After the race is won, Gruntilda will say that "this cat's worse than Klungo, if [she's] being frank."
Grunty and her new minion immediately get off to a bad start. Disgusted by her cuteness, Grunty boots the cat away from her, laughing. However, the cat, who's name is revealed by L.O.G. to be Piddles, proves that she is not one to take abuse, and attacks Gruntilda. Despite this incident, the two of them eventually learn to deal with each other and fight alongside each other.


In [[Banjoland]], Piddles aids Gruntilda by using the Grenade Turret to shoot the duo.
Piddles is first encountered in [[Nutty Acres]], where she can be raced. [[Trophy Thomas]] was meant to race her, however his car was being "repaired", apparently. After beating her Trophy Tomas accuses the Banjo and Kazooie for cheating via [[Stop 'n' Swop]] and she is used by Grunty again in the [[LOGBOX 720]] in a scheme to shut down the system for good. Fortunately, [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] soon put a stop to this plan before it even begins as Gruntilda was yet again stupid enough to give the bear and bird a chance. Piddles aids Grunty there by using an Egg Turret. She also aids Grunty in [[Banjoland]] by shooting them with a Grenade Turret. She is also seen in the background of the minigame Hero Klungo Sssavesss Teh Universsse (albeit much more ferocious-looking), being directed by Gruntilda to attack Klungo.


In the final battle at [[Spiral Mountain]], Piddles assists Gruntilda by using various weapons while atop her vehicles. After being defeated, Gruntilda's skull falls off the container that holds it, but Piddles knocks it back in. Due to their loss, the witch and the cat are both sent to [[L.O.G.'s Videogame Factory]] to work there forever.
[[Image:Piddlespic.jpg|thumb|150px|Piddles, moments before the final battle.]]


In the game ''[[Hero Klungo Sssavesss Teh Universsse]]'', two copies of Piddles appear in the background (one being obscured by the in-game screen), but much bigger and ferocious-looking, being apparently sent by Gruntilda to attack Klungo.
Piddles later assists Grunty in the final battle at [[Spiral Mountain]] by shooting Banjo with an Egg Turret atop Gruntilda's Broomstick. After having been defeated by the bear and bird, her head had fallen out of its jar and Piddles helpfully knocked it back in. Neither witch nor cat could stand up to the victorious bear and bird though, and both were sent to L.O.G's video game factory, in whence a scene occured where Piddles was actually talking, bossing Grunty around. This is probably as she no longer fulfilled the duty of being Grunty's sidekick by this point, but it seems likely she'll reappear in future games.


==Flavor text==
Piddles probably came from the idea of Halloween that witches have pet cats that ride with them on their broomsticks.

*After defeating [[Gruntilda Winkybunion|Gruntilda]] in [[Spiral Mountain]] and winning the game, Piddles can be seen in the group of people cheering [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] on for winning the game, even though she was taken to [[L.O.G.]]'s video game factory along with Gruntilda. She is the closest to Banjo's house, standing next to [[Jolly Dodger|Jolly Rodger]].
