Non-toxic Stuffed Animal Friend: Cheetah

February 15, 2008 by Jennifer  

I thought that since Peggy’s Hug This Animal, was the Cheetah today, I’d find a non-toxic toy version for the kiddos. That’s was difficult. I did find two cute stuffed pals finally though.

The Zoological Society of London (ZSL) is a charity, “Devoted to the worldwide conservation of animals and their habitats.” They have a super cute cheetah friend who is non-toxic and safe for ages 3 and up.

Or there’s the Mini Chunky Cheetah available from Kenana Knitters from the Ethical Superstore. This little fellow is 100% wool, dyed naturally with plants and vegetables, and handmade by fair trade producers in Kenya. Actually, not to get off base but they also have an adorable Mini Chunky Octopus too – winter style with hat and scarf. What’s with all the cute octopus toys lately? Is the octopus the new black or what?

    These are super cute! My dogs love to destroy stuffed toys, but I get nervous with how cheaply made dog toys are. Who KNOWS what kind of chemicals my babies could be consuming??? So these are really appealing to me from a slightly different perspective. ;)

    There are lots of eco pet companies, creating wonderful non-toxic options for pets. I’ll do a post on it soon. That way you don’t have to buy adorable kid toys and feed them to dogs! Hey, have you seen the post I did on sustainable dog homes? You would like that – you look so hip in your photo, and these dog homes are the coolest EVER:

    Mini Chunky Octopus? They had a chance to call something a socktopus and they didn’t?
    Still adorable, my daughter might get one once she’s older.
