I know nothing about this beast, including why she's sometimes labelled as a pencil sharpener, and sometimes as a pencil topper. I have never seen her on a pencil
It appears that the little thing she attaches to (seen
in picture to the right) is the pencil sharpener, and the figure is a removable decoration for the top of it. Not sure how small the sharpener would have to be for the figure to double as a pencil topper!
Edit: The figures seem to be about the size as Twinkles the Cat, maybe slightly larger. The undersides have holes in them that are the size of a pencil, so that just means that the figures themselves are big for pencil toppers, but they'd still fit on the pencils. It appears they just double as pencil toppers and pencil-sharpener toppers.

There are also figures of Bubbles and Cotton Candy in this style
(Cotton Candy figure seen above)
There are three variations, each w/ different poses - Sitting, standing, and rearing
The Cotton Candy and Bubbles ones also have 3 variations, w/ the same poses
It's possible these figures may have been given as rewards in the UK Activity Club
