Stuffed animal thread!

Because, admit it. You're never too old for stuffed animals

Here you can talk about stuffed animals you have, or used to have.  And even post pictures of them if you want to!

(Has anyone heard of Aurora Rolly Pets? SO CUTEEEEE)

Amethyst D. here! I'm a stuffie! Except also totally and completely real, and don't you forget it!

Yep! That pretty much covers it. However, we can put more things about her! 

For one thing, she's a grey tabby. She has a nose injury but can still smell and is good at smelling. Her hearing is also very good. And her favorite wildcats are the scottish wildcat - she thinks she has some in her - and the black-footed cat.

A.D. - I'm good at a lot of things. I like to help Blackfooted Bobcat with all of her crafts - I'm not even going to try to list them all - and garden and play outside and paint and write and draw and go on adventures whether mostly real or mostly imagined/real,  climb trees, and did I mention READ?

It should be noted that most of the time you get stuck in the tree because you're scared of heights. If you'd just climb down -

A.D. I do some of the time! Anyway, I'm basically Katie's only friend. Definitely her best friend.

And that about covers it! I'll post some other things in a bit, including some drawings of her.

I accidentally put my real name in there!!!! Admins, can you fix it???

Did I fix it OK? I adjusted the only comment I found from Blackfooted Bobcat that came in on this thread. If it's another comment from another name, you need to tell me specifically what it says so I can find it.

Wait, it's back. Can you replace the name that's not Blackfooted Bobcat or Amethsyt Dreamchaser with Blackfooted Bobcat?

I'm fourteen years old and I still have all my stuffed animals. I have a huge problem with emotional attachment, and I cannot fathom giving them away. I can't even put them in a storage box or basket because I'm worried they'll think I abandoned them. Yeah I So now there are thirty stuffed animals that take up 70% of my bed. All my stuffed animals have backstories, personalities, careers, and friend groups. My brother and I have hosted not one but THREE stuffy weddings. 

I know, you're probably thinking "what is wrong with this girl I threw away all my stuffies at age 8." I totally agree with you Alex, you are never ever to old for stuffed animals. 

Attached is a picture of Horatio's (the giraffe) bar mitzvah ceremony. Yes, I did cut out 30 mini yalmulkes for this occasion.

eyyy! I’m not the only one! I’m turning 13 in a week and still hav a bunch of my stuffies. They all have backstories, and groups of friends. Some nice, some not, and all different interests. I’m glad to know I’m not alone. I especially have one blanket that my mom got at my baby shower. It’s threadbare and anyone else would probably throw her out, but I love her, and can’t fall asleep without her. My younger brother has wayyy more than I do though. Whatever. I’m trying to get him to figure out shipping. I’m like, ‘right, so Speedy and Skip like each other’ and he’s like, ‘huh?’ Speedy is a frog he has, and Skip is a Wallaroo I got at the San Diego zoo. Sooo.... yeah. No one feel bad that you still have all your stuffies. :-)

I've promised myself that I'll never donate my stuffies. On occaision, when I've been neglecting one, I'll break that promise if I feel that anyone else would love him/her better, but that's not very often and a very solemn/bittersweet occaision with a large ceremonious celebration. There is NOTHING wrong with you having stuffies when you're fourteen or fifteen or sixteen or even eighty! We have celebrations too, except for my stuffies don't get married. And, if Horatio's bar mitzvah was anytime recent, tell him congratulations etc. from me! (I don't know when this was, so if it was like 3 years ago no need to!)

I have SO many stuffed animals. One of them is a beagle, and it's almost creepy how real she looks. 

Has anyone heard of Furbies? They are like stuffed animals only they like talk and stuff. I just got one, and it's adorable and extremely annoying.

I still have a bunch of my stuffed animals too... my bed got so full that I edventaully had to put some of them into a box because I was having trouble sleeping. XD

My absolute favorite is a stuffed elephant named Ellie. I ordered her online really soon after we moved into our new house and have kept her with me ever since. 

I still play with them and they all have personalities and are my babies. They're like imaginary friends... that are real.

Does anyone else talk to them in your head? Or is that just me because I get really lonely at times... 

Here's a picture of what Ellie looks like! (I'm slacking off with shcool and too lazy to go grab her, so enjoy a random picture off the internet! She looks just like this... but a lot more smooshed).

Uh... hopefully the picture will show up... if it doesn't I'll take an actual pictue of her. :/  

Sorry, but the CB is only allowed toinclude photographs taken by the CBer. Photographs found online are the propertyof the person who took the photograph. --Admin
