Mimics the sounds of a mouse using squeaky wheels and a print-in-place scratcher. This toy is meant to be used under covers/bedsheets to simulate a “hunt”. Interactive play with cats is important!

In your slicer, stand the scratcher up so that the axles are on the print bed. The second picture demonstrates this. The main body might require a little nudge to set the scratcher free post-print.

Here's a video of it in action: 

It requries a little bit of finesse to get the wheels squeaking. To get the best sound, push down VERY lightly on the wheel from the top and slowly rotate the wheel, as shown in the video.

I printed this with black Overture PLA, I'm curious to see how other colors fare in squeakiness.

NOTE: Repeatedly taking the wheels off will prematurely degrade the squeakiness, so it's best to leave them on once you've assembled it!
