Slowpoke Rodriguez is a fictional animated cartoon mouse, part of the Looney Tunes' cast. He is described as "the slowest mouse in all Mexico", and cousin to Speedy Gonzalez, who is known as the fastest.

Perhaps Speedy Gonzalez's best-known sidekick, Slowpoke only appeared in two cartoons alongside his cousin: "Mexicali Shmoes" (1959), which ends with two lazy cats learning the hard way that Slowpoke carries a gun and "Mexican Boarders" (1962), where Speedy tries to protect Slowpoke from Sylvester the cat. The latter cartoon was later edited into Bugs Bunny's 3rd Movie: 1001 Rabbit Tales.
