Roo

Roo is a character in the Winnie The Pooh franchise. He is a stuffed joey belonging to Christopher Robin who first appeared in Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree. Roo is the playful and spirited son of Kanga and the best friend of Tigger and Lumpy.
==Background==
Piglet's Big Movie suggests that Roo and his mother Kanga are the most recent residents of the Hundred Acre Wood. He and his mother live in a tree house where they have a conjoined mailbox. Roo is, unsurprisingly, the youngest member of Winnie the Pooh's circle of friends. The earliest Pooh shorts, such as Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day and Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too, portray Roo as a toddler that spends most of his time tucked inside his mother's pouch. The earlier shorts also depict Roo as still learning to speak, as he was unable to pronounce Christopher Robin's name. More modern Pooh media depict Roo as slightly older and more proactive. He rarely spends time in his mother's pouch and will often take part in the shenanigans of Pooh and friends without Kanga's involvement.
Roo's youthful and energetic personality (as well as his natural love of bouncing) makes him the perfect companion for Tigger, with whom Roo shares a relationship akin to two siblings. However, his young age sometimes prevents him from tagging along on Pooh's adventures (mainly because Rabbit and even Tigger believes Roo's too young for certain expeditions). When not with Tigger or Kanga, Roo spends his free time with Dexter, Owl's cousin. Since Lumpy's introduction, he and Roo have been portrayed as best friends and spend most of their time together.
