Stuffed animals that help real animals

Thanks to a certain animated show, my daughter now ties her stuffed animals to chairs and then attempts to save them using only teamwork and a pom-pom hat. It's not my cup of tea, but I do like the idea of encouraging kids to help animals, which is why I like Oomfy.
This new business turns that cartoon altruism into real world good. Every time you purchase a stuffed animal and its companion book from Oomfy, a portion of the proceeds goes to support the rescue, rehabilitation, and eventual release of displaced and orphaned baby wild animals. The stuffed Oomfies are made from certified non-toxic dyes and stuffed with organic cotton, and the board books explore the real stories of the Oomfies, which were named for the sound that hungry baby animals make.

(Tell me that doesn't grab your heart.)

What's really cool is that the Oomfies aren't the usual bear-rabbit-puppy collection of critters.  Instead, you can choose from a hedgehog, a jackal, a bushbaby, a monkey, and an owl.

I love the way this gift gives back in so many ways, from helping actual animals to teaching children that they can be a part of the solution. Fwiends, this is sewiously cool.~Delilah
