Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In various "Tom & Jerry" cartoons and comic strips, what is the name of Jerry's nephew who wears a diaper?

Answer: Nibbles

Nibbles was originally called Tuffy in his original appearances and that name is still used from time to time. He was later redrawn to be smaller in size and wearing a diaper. Typically, he appears to be grey in color but is sometimes another color.

2. Rizzo the Rat is a recurring background character in which franchise?

Answer: The Muppets

Rizzo is a street rat who appears in various roles in "The Muppets". He is usually very sarcastic and loves pizza. In "Muppet Christmas Carol" he says he has over 1,200 brothers and sisters. That same film was the first time Rizzo had a starring role. He played one of the narrators. Steve Whitmire, who also plays Kermit, is the puppeteer who plays Rizzo.
3. Gus and Jaq are two of the animal companions of which Disney princess?

Answer: Cinderella

Gus and Jaq are two of Cinderella's many animal friends. Jaq is considered to be the tougher and smarter of the two while Gus is more of a goofball.

After the Fairy Godmother helps Cinderella get ready for the ball, Gus and Jaq are transformed into horses to pull Cinderella's carriage.
4. Which little mousy literary character was conceived during a dream while the writer was sleeping on a railway car?

Answer: Stuart Little

E.B. White claimed that Stuart Little came to him in a dream he had about a boy who acted like a rat or mouse. Indeed, Stuart Little is a little white mouse who was born to human parents.

5. Though known infamously as Minnie Mouse, what is Minnie's real first name?

Answer: Minerva

When Minnie was first created in the late 1920s, her appearance was like that of a flapper, which was contemporary for the time. As time went on and social attitudes changed, Minnie's appearance changed as well. Her first appearance was in 1928's "Steamboat Willie" which was also Mickey's first appearance. Throughout the years, Minnie has become something of a girlfriend to Mickey.

Her real name of Minerva is almost never mentioned in her appearances. Minerva was revealed to be her real name in the 1940s comic strip "The Gleam".
6. Which of the following is NOT a nemesis of Mighty Mouse?

Answer: Pearl Pureheart

Pearl Pureheart is a female companion to Mighty Mouse in his cartoon series. Mitzi is his companion in the comic strips. Most of the Mighty Mouse's enemies are unnamed cats. Typically, the cartoons would have a World War II theme to them, especially in the early days when Mighty Mouse was called Super Mouse. The cats would resemble Nazis in action and appearance.

Oil Can Harry and Julius Pinhead Schlabotka are both cats. Oil Can Harry is Mighty Mouse's arch nemesis when Pinhead is a cat with superhuman strength. Automatic Mouse Trap is actually a dinosaur/robot villain.
7. Which cartoon mouse appeared in dozens of animated shorts including "Tabasco Road", "Mexicali Shmoes" and "The Pied Piper of Guadalupe"? He also has a cousin named Slowpoke Rodriguez.

Answer: Speedy Gonzales

Speedy Gonzales claims to be the fastest mouse in Mexico, while his cousin Slowpoke is the slowest mouse in Mexico. Speedy first appeared in the 1953 short "Cat-Tails for Two" but he looked completely different and did not wear his trademark yellow sombrero or red bandana.

He also did not shout "Andale!" like he usually does. In recent years, Speedy's appearances have been limited in the "Looney Tunes" franchise because of fears he represents a negative Mexican stereotype. However, many people have noted that Speedy is one of the most popular characters in Mexico.
8. Technically speaking, which of the following famous Pokemon is a mouse?

Answer: Pikachu

Pikachu is classified as the mouse Pokemon and the "chu" part of its name refers to the sound mice make in Japanese. Pikachu is probably the most famous Pokemon species. A Pikachu is the main traveling companion to Ash in the anime series.

Chuck E. Cheese's was founded in 1977 in San Jose, California by Nolan Bushnell who also co-founded Atari. It is primarily a pizza restaurant and arcade where children have their birthday parties.
