Timothy Q. Mouse is the deuteragonist in Disney's 1941 hit feature film, Dumbo. He was voiced by Edward Brophy in the film, Corey Burton in House of Mouse and Chris Edgerly in the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts.

Personality

Throughout the film, Timothy's primary goal is to make Dumbo rich and famous and rescue his mother. He is very clever and extremely caring for Dumbo. He understands Dumbo is crushed that his mother is away from him and tries not to push him too hard. He has a New York accent.

Appearances

Dumbo

In the film, Timothy doesn't appear until after Dumbo's mother is taken away. Timothy goes to cheer Dumbo up after he sees how badly the elephants are treating him. At first, Dumbo doesn't trust Timothy, but Timothy proves that he's a nice guy.

Timothy and Dumbo soon become friends and Timothy tells Dumbo in order to get his mother out he must become a star. So they tried and it was a disaster. Dumbo then becomes a clown and Timothy cheers him up by helping him visit his mother. Mrs. Jumbo and Dumbo are happy to see each other, but the visit is short and Timothy must take Dumbo back to the circus grounds. Meanwhile, clowns are drinking and a bottle of champagne drops into Dumbo's drinking water. Both Timothy and Dumbo drink the water and begin seeing Pink Elephants, but later they find themselves awakening on top of a tree.

On the tree, they meet a group of crows who bully Dumbo about being on top of a tree. The crows begin wondering how Dumbo got up there and everybody gets the idea that Dumbo is to be a flying elephant. The crows give a "magic" feather to Timothy in order to help Dumbo fly. After Dumbo learns to fly, he becomes very famous and his mother was able to come live with him like Timothy had predicted and afterward Timothy became Dumbo's official manager.
