Make Mine a Jitter Critter



Stopped by the Concord Pet in Middletown on Saturday and while checking out saw this box of fuzzy little creatures called Jitter Critters. Two of the clerks said they're fast sellers. I picked out a yellow one (not pictured) -- maybe it's a cat, maybe it's a lion or tiger, maybe it's a cartoon character. Who knows? Pull the string in the back and it scurries forward, sounding like a tiny outboard motor. I tried to entice the clerks to race two of them along the counter, but a customer walked in needing help with dog vitamins, and she ruined playtime.

Jitter Critters are $2.49.
