'''Squitter''' is a large orange-and-black haired spider and an [[Animal Friend]] in the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'' franchise]]. He is one of the few spiders in said franchise to actually have eight legs, whereas most others, such as [[Small Spider]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' and [[Skittler]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', have six. Despite this, Squitter still lacks some spider features, such as multiple eyes and chelicerae. He also wears four pairs of orange-white shoes, which resemble those worn by another Animal Buddy, [[Expresso the Ostrich]].

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', Squitter appears to assist [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] on their adventure. He has the ability to shoot out an unlimited supply of web projectiles from his mouth, which he can use to defeat most enemies, including [[Zinger]]s. He also has the ability to create temporary web platforms to reach higher areas, such as a [[Bonus Area]], or to cross a large gap. However, he cannot jump as high as the Kongs can in return. Squitter is unable to defeat an enemy by jumping on it, as this injures him in the process.

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'', Squitter reprises his role, keeping mostly the same characteristics. Unlike in the previous game, Squitter can now defeat enemies by jumping on them, although it is no more effective than the Kongs' jump attack, because he cannot defeat stronger enemies like [[Buzz (enemy)|Buzz]]es this way.
