Most Kitty Kitty Kittens no longer have a full water bladder so I wouldn't worry too much about the bacteria risk at this point to start with. I think it's been long enough by now. Washing it is always an option if you're concerned though and it's likely that stain in the stomach area is from the water after the balloon popped.Although honestly - as long as you're not putting it in your mouth I think you're fine I'd imagine that was the big issue because it was meant as a toy for a kids, who may put it in their mouth or put their hands in their mouth after the water leaks. In which case the whole discard of destroy makes sense. You know keep it out of the hands of other kids? But as a collectible that is definitely overkill.

They're so cute, I don't see how anyone could "destroy" or throw them away! If someone had one for their kid, I think it would be easier to dispose of the balloon and clean the toy rather than tossing it, especially if their child played with it often.

But that takes effort a lot of people may not be willing to exert and since at that time the water bladders likely were full they'd be exposing themselves to the bacteria as well.My mom threw out 12 or so of mine so... x.x
Poor kittens...
They are super expensive. I had 4 of the Tyco ones (not involved in the recall) escape being tossed out.The one DSI Kitty Kitty Kitten I have is from ebay. I'm hoping to eventually collect them back now that she has no say lol.

I found this website that had a bunch of information about them, but they don't mention which ones were. (http://www.pranceatron.com/kittens/kittykittykittens.html)I have the calico, golden eyes, and with a pink tag (The tag was cut but I can see the pink font.) Were these ones fine or also recalled?
I found one from 2000 at a local church sale for a quarter, it is a calico one.
