Finds & Treasures: Kitty Stuffed Animals (January Childhood Theme)

The rattiest, oldest stuffed animals you have were loved the most.   No matter how ratty they get, you don't see yourself parting ways.  That's the case with my founding stuffed animals named by my toddler self as the next entry for my F&T series of "from birth to childhood."

My toddler logic named the black and white one Paws for her large feet, and the grey and white one Sassy due to her obvious swag and attitude.

How funny to know that over twenty years after I received Sassy I would have a real life look-a-like of my own in the form of Jimmy the Cat (to show scale and cuteness in the image below).  Maybe my next cat should be black and white.

Live cat for scale.  Jimmy lets it all hang out, (his usual sitting position).

Do you still have your first stuffed animal(s) from childhood?  Let me know in the comments.
