Neglectable Pets: Hoover.
written by Julie R. Neidlinger 3 comments link this post
Hoover has spent too much time with his face to the sewing room floor.
He's stuffed. With more than just stuffing.
He made a pig of himself on scraps of cloth, ribbon and thread. And he has the clear conscience (and heart) to not try to hide it.
He also has a crazy hair issue. All that time eating off of the carpet has raised a few gnarly static issues.

::Neglectable pets: bizarre and fun creatures that come with their own bizarre and erratic official papers that prove something not yet determined. All pets are made one at a time by myself, making use of two decades worth of my mother's fabric and notion scraps. Each has a mouth that is a fully functional pocket for you to hide valuable stuff. You can neglect them and yet they will retain a continual look of crazy-eyed bemusement. Each pet is original, one-of-a-kind, and based on a pattern of my own creation.::
Materials: Fleece, cotton, pinto beans, ribbon, clear acrylic.
Size: About 6" high, 5" wide, and 2" thick (thickness varies)
Other:Spot wash. [Do not immerse in water, since this neglectable pet obediently downed a bag of pinto beans before being put on the market for adoption. The beans keep him upright on dry land, but they'd drown him in the wash. And make him bloat something awful.]
Price: SOLD
Labels: budget, cats, neglectable pets, plushies

Hoover is a real cutie! (By the way, I've gotten a LOT of positive comments on Gullivar in airports...) :)

People like Gulliver?! That's actually very cool to hear. :-)

Hoover reminds me of a fluffy Tarzan. Maybe more sophisticated, though.
