Pattertwig

Pattertwig is a character who appears in the 2008 Disney/Walden Media adaptation of The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.
==Background==
Pattertwig is a talking squirrel, who was one of the Old Narnians living in Narnia. He is shown to have a smart personality, unlike the squirrels living in Earth which did not talk. In addition to this, Pattertwig is shown to be a cheeky yet chatty squirrel, like all talking squirrels found in Narnia. Not much of his personality is known as he does not speak much, unlike most talking animals.
==Role in the film==
Pattertwig is first seen at the Dancing Lawn where he talks to Prince Caspian, asking him if it is possible if he could bring peace between the Narnians and Telmarines. Caspian tells the Narnians to have a chance to take back what is theirs, even though the Telmarines did not believe in the existence of animals or creatures that talk just as the Narnians offer him their lives, planning to help them fight off the Telmarine army. The other Narnians listened and believed in him listening to his promise to restore their land.
Pattertwig is later seen at Aslan's How during a discussion with the other Old Narnians in a plan to invade the Telmarine Castle where he suggests throwing nuts just before Reepicheep replies that they could throw them at the Telmarines - although he tells the squirrel to keep it down just before Peter exits and leads the Narnians to storm the castle. It is unknown if Pattertwig survived the castle raid, even after the Old Narnians won the battle against the Telmarines.
==Trivia==
*Pattertwig's voice actor, Harry Gregson-Williams, is also the film's composer.
*Pattertwig seen in the Disney adaptation of Prince Caspian is a red squirrel, which was common around Narnia author C.S. Lewis' lifetime. Over time, gray squirrels were introduced in European countries and started becoming more common than the red squirrel, causing the red squirrel population to decline.
*He is one of the few talking animals in the Chronicles of Narnia film series who has a limited amount of screen time.
