I feel like this batch of mutagen is different too though, Kirby seems to have lost his humanity - he's not like Dogpound, Fishface and the other mutants from season 1 - who could talk and still be aware of themselves. Even the squirrelnoids don't look like they'll be talking much... and we know animals turned mutant gained that ability, The turtles being 4 cases and even Pidgeon Pete could talk....

Then again, i think back to the mutant cockroach, the wasp and Monkeybrain... those were mutants unable to communicate or speak... Not sure what the determining factors are for these mutants anymore... Anyways... I just don't really care for the squirrels.

Another note: I don't think Spike is going to be Slash... I feel like Slash is going to be a Kraang project to try and immitate their greatest foes - the turtles... that or its going to be a Shredder mutant attempt (reminiscient of the second live action from the 90's perhaps where Shredder mutated a snapping turtle (and wolf)) like Mickie15 said it was already shown at comic con that spike will mutate into into slash, they showed pictures and everything. theres pics of him on this wiki.
