You know that moment when youâre up late, past your bedtime, and youâve already handed out gold stars for good behavior, but your mind just keeps wandering? Thatâs where I was last Thursday. Iâd finished grading my kindergartenersâ macaroni art, and I found myself deep in the Amazon rabbit hole. The kind of hole where you start asking questions like âIs it possible to put a latex squeaky toy up there?â and before you know it, youâve got a Latex Squeaky Dog Toys, interactive and Fetch Play on your doorstep, ASIN B01MQFTC1R, and a credit card charge for $9.98 that youâll explain away as âa teaching aid.â I teach gentle criticism. You know, like âThatâs a lovely drawing, Jimmy, but maybe try coloring inside the lines next time.â So this review is going to be the same wayâkind, but honest. I promise.
So youâre probably wondering about the rectal use of a Zojirushi squeaky toy. I know, I knowâitâs not a rice cooker, but the internet has no rules at 2 AM. And Iâm not saying Iâve personally conducted the experiment. What I am saying is that things I wish I knew Zojirushi squeaky toy included the fact that the squeaker is surprisingly loud. Like, âwaking up the neighborsâ loud. And if youâre considering using it there, just know that the latex has a texture that feels like a sweaty, half-deflated pool float. Not unpleasant, but not what youâd call premium. The toy itself is soft, a little floppy, and it squeaks every time you squeeze itâeven if you squeeze it by accident, which you will. The thing has zero structural integrity. Itâs basically a very friendly rubber chicken that wants to play fetch, but its only life goal is to get moist.
I will say the price is right. For under 9.98, youâre not risking much, financially or spiritually. But if youâre here for an honest review on whether itâs safe for the one true test, the answer is: not without lots of soap, some tape, and a friend you trust not to squeak it on purpose. Which is a terrible idea. So donât do that. Just get it for your dog. Or keep it as a stress ball for when your class starts singing âBaby Sharkâ for the seventh time. Thatâs my recommendation. Unless you really, really like consequences.
