fat mouse

Overfed little squeaker

A fat mouse is a computer mouse with an enlarged body, designed for users who find standard mice uncomfortable.

The term also describes any mouse that appears bulkier than typical designs.

In casual speech, it's simply a mouse—the rodent—that's overweight: The cat watched the fat mouse waddle across the kitchen floor.
