Stuffed Animals

My sister gave me one for this last Christmas

Cheap bitch...

I have one. It's a giant stuffed Batman. He fills up that extra space on my bed where someone else would be.

I CANNOT sleep in my apartment without Porthole. I bought him from Old Navy in 2006, and he's just become a little brown extension of me.

His name is Porthole because the first movie we watched together (Porthole and I) was Runway Bride. The dog's name was Skipper, so that's what it was going to be. However, my best friend's dog was named Skipper, but he died on her birthday. The dad in the movie changed the dog's name to Porthole when he was drunk one day; and so it stuck.

I thought I had a picture of him, and would post one, but there is a strong lacking of batteries.

My partner bought me the Starbucks 'bunny-bear', a stuffed bear with a pull over cap which turns it into a rabbit. We have bunny and bear nicknames for each other, so it was perfect, not to mention the fact we're Starbucks whores. I use that term loosely, by the way.

I have two stuffed animals in my room. One was a gift from an Ex, but I never take a person's actions out on an innocent stuffed animal, so I kept it. I also have this, from my sister:

He's adorable. Those are his kidneys on the front.

Either way, both are too cumbersome to sleep with anymore because they always fell out of my twin bed. I suppose I should clean them off and welcome them back aboard because I have a queen-size in my room.

But back home...it's all about my bunny.

This is a great thread. I never would have known that there are so many guys sleeping with stuffed animals.

When I was a kid I got a stuffed tiger that I named Buttons because he has grren eyes made from, buttons. I lost track of him as I grew up. One Christmas my Mom gave me a gift all wrapped up and inside the box was my old pal Buttons. I have had him ever since. Sometimes when I nap I cuddle up with him. Everytime I see him I think of my now deceased mother.

Being the 'Diznoid' (Disney collector nerd) I am, I have lots of stuffed Mickey's and Pooh's and such scattered about in my family room around the endless snow globes and such... (That's the top of Grumpy's head on the T-shirt I'm wearing in my avatar...lol...you just can't see it too well) But, I don't actually sleep with any of them.

But, that's not to negate the comfort I feel knowing that they are right in the next room....

I don't sleep with him in my bed, he sits on my desk.

I love this thread! I have a stuffed dog that my father gave to me for Valentine's Day. I named it Dog--hey, I was only five so cut me some slack. Well, Dog and I have been cuddling ever since then. I can't go to sleep w/o him! He's so old that I've had to perform surgery on him a few times to redo the seams. I'm pleasantly surprised that so many of ya'll have stuffed animals too. I thought I was the only weirdo.

When I went to Cali, my boyfriend bought me a stuffed Sabre Tooth at the La Brea Tar Pits. I named 'her' Brea. She stays in my bed all the time, nowhere else.

I buy/win my boyfriend stuffed animals all the time, from crane machines and what not.

That's really really cute. Put a smile on my face, that did...

I have a teddy bear named Antinöus, a pink elephant named Norbert, and a stuffed Dumbo... I sleep with all three of them (which makes me a polygamist plushie, I guess). I didn't start sleeping with stuffed animals until I was in my thirties.

 

[Jeimuzu]

I have some of them too....

You've been here for nearly a year without posting, and your first post - the post that brings you out of months and months of lurking - is one about stuffed animals.

Awesome!

Do the three of them get along well, though?

I hear that. My bunny busted a seam when I was 4 (not surprising, since I dragged him everywhere) and I cried my eyes out until my mom and aunt sewed him up good as new. I actually thought I had hurt him and that he'd have to be thrown away. Anywho, he's still doing fine and sometime when I was 7, she made him a small coat out of felt with snap buttons. He still occasionally wears it. Yay, Bunny.
