Hi, I'm Frankie the Cat.

I'm loyal, loving, and low-key — but I can be quite playful when the mood strikes! It may take me a moment to warm up to strangers, but I'll always want to take a cuddly catnap with you.

  • WEIGHTED ALL OVER TO HUG YOU BACK! Hugimals weigh a substantial 4.5 lbs each, and unlike most other weighted plush with weight clumped only in one area, Hugimals have their weight distributed evenly throughout their body, head, arms and legs, for the blissful feeling that they are hugging you back.
  • EMOTIONAL SUPPORT TOOL: Hugimals' facial expressions are intentionally neutral to support you in feeling any emotion in a no-judgment zone.
  • SENSORY BENEFITS: Weighted Deep Touch Pressure can help anxiety, stress and sleep. It can also help with focus, making Hugimals great study or work buddies.
  • SOFT AND LOVABLE: Extra-soft fabric provides a soothing tactile sensory experience.
  • MACHINE WASHABLE EXTERIOR: Weighted with non-toxic glass beads sewn into a secure removable weighted insert, which allows for machine washing of the outer plush.

I love this fox!!

I have multiple Hugimals and I love them all so much. Each is unique in some way. My fox is named Tucker. He is a very good size and weight , on the larger side, compared to say the sloth, which is the smallest feeling that I have (but absolutely adore her too). Very high quality materials, construction, and design. Adorable and truly comforting. Stop debating and get it! You will not regret it, particularly if you are an anxiety sufferer like me.

Every human of every age and some animals too

Everyone needs a Hugimals and a Hugaround. They are soothing to the nervous system. They are cute. They are a small business created by a woman. Get one! Get a dozen!
I have the Brown Hugimals Bear and the Panda. They are stupendous.

These Hugimals are perfect for my 3 and 6 year olds. I got them each one last Christmas and they both loved them so I decided to get th3m each one this year and they love them too. They sleep with them and they really comfort them when they don’t feel good.

Love him!

I love the panda I renamed him Oreo he’s so wonderful when I’m having a stressful time at work I come home and hold him against me and makes me feel better. At night it helps me sleep when I cuddle him. I have almost all the hugimals it’s a wonderful thing for anxiety.

How do our weighted products work?

Similar to a big, comforting hug, the weighted pressure (aka Deep Touch Pressure) in our products brings on a relaxation response from your parasympathetic nervous system — and tamps down a fight-or-flight response from your sympathetic nervous system. When one of our weighted self-care products is placed on your lap, chest, or tummy, your body begins to lower production of the stress hormone cortisol and increases production of the “calming” neurotransmitters, including oxytocin, serotonin and dopamine, helping you feel comforted, relaxed, grounded, and secure. 

Deep Touch Pressure has also been shown to help with sleep, as well as focus & concentration, making our products excellent bedtime companions and study/work buddies!

Enjoy the calming hugs!

FOCUS AND CONCENTRATION: Weighted pressure can help with focus, making Hugimals great study or work buddies when placed on a lap (like a weighted lap pad but way more adorable!). 

EMOTIONAL SUPPORT TOOL: Hugimals’ neutral expressions are specifically designed to allow you to feel any emotion in a judgment-free zone (no forced smiles here.)

SENSORY BENEFITS: Hugimals’ extra-soft fabric provides a soothing tactile sensory experience, and their calming colors are inspired by the natural colors of river stones.

SELF-CARE FOR ALL: Unanimously positive reviews from our children's hospital pilot program show that Hugimals are "a fantastic source of both comfort and sensory support" for children. Our Gen Z and Millennial fans use Hugimals for self-care, stress relief and to help with sleep. They make great gifts!

This is an information diagram showing how to remove a Hugimal's weighted insert and wash the outer plush.

REMOVABLE WEIGHT: Your Hugimal is weighted with the same non-toxic glass beading used in many weighted blankets, sewn into secure sections within a removable weighted inner body for added safety.

WASHABLE! (AND WE DON’T MEAN SPOT-CLEAN ONLY): The weighted inner body is fully removable, allowing for easy washing of outer plush. We recommend washing the outer plush in a cold, gentle cycle. Best to wash in a laundry bag. Then hang dry.

BLISSFUL, FULL-BODY HUGS: With their weight distributed throughout their head, body and limbs, you feel the soothing sensation of your Hugimal “hugging” you back.
