Cuddles (3.5e Creature)
A saddled lavender rust monster approaches, trotting merrily. It seems not to see you, but you see that it is definitely lacking its rider. As it comes within earshot, you hear it is whistling a jaunty tune.

This particular Rust Monster is the faithful companion and mount of Clemens Kwerath. When found, he is often mounted by his owner, but if found alone he is most likely to be in a good mood, minding his merry business and whistling or humming to himself.
Combat
Cuddles avoids combat when not with Clemens, preferring to dispense hugs at random.
Rust (Ex): A rust monster that makes a successful touch attack with its antennae causes the target metal to corrode, falling to pieces and becoming useless immediately. The touch can destroy up to a 10-foot cube of metal instantly. Magic armor and weapons, and other magic items made of metal, must succeed on a DC 17 Reflex save or be dissolved. The save DC is Constitution-based and includes a +4 racial bonus.
A metal weapon that deals damage to a rust monster corrodes immediately. Wooden, stone, and other nonmetallic weapons are unaffected.
