Iggy the Bunny

$68.00

Hi, I'm Iggy the Bunny

I'm extra soft, with epically fuzzy long plush in gentle shades of pink and cream, silky floppy ears, a sweet cottontail, and adorably oversized bunny legs and feet. My all-over weighted bunny hugs are so cozy, they’ll make you feel like the world just got a little gentler.

Hugimals Benefits

  • HELPS KIDS & ADULTS FEEL CALM AND GROUNDED: Developed with doctors & therapists to lower stress and anxiety and increase calm in kids, teens, and adults through weighted Deep Touch Pressure.
  • UNIQUELY 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 (and now viral!) 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.
  • SELF-CARE FOR ALL: Hugimals are a fantastic source of both comfort & sensory support for kids, teens, adults and seniors.
  • THE GIFT THAT HUGS THEM WHEN YOU CAN'T: When you send a Hugimal to a loved one, it will deliver all the loving hugs you can't always be there to give.

I babysat for a friend whose daughter had a stuffed plushie. I sat with it in my lap, just casually holding it. About half an hour went by before I realized…it was kinda soothing! I wanted my own. That night I did my research, compared brands, & spents days deciding which one i wanted! I watched the shipping updates like a hawk. Its been a few weeks and ive loved it since it arrived. Ive taken my bear on long distance road trips, overnight stays out of town, or ill just lay on the couch with it spread across my chest while i scroll tiktok. My Hugimals provides a much needed element of comfort to concious and/or subconscious stress inducing tasks & experiences. I want to design & create small shirts & garments to personalize my Hugimals. I tell all of my peers about it and plan to gift one to a close friend who i think would benefit from. If youre curious- i say BUY IT & and happy hugging <3

Great product, Great Customer Service

Plushies are exactly as described! Love the weight and quality. One of the plushies had an issue and I raised it to customer support and they immediately fixed it by replacing it for us with no cost and let us keep the plushie that had an issue! We'll be keeping our new one while the old one was manually fixed and donated to a charity!

Grief Support

If someone informed me 4 years ago that I would be sleeping with a weighted koala bear for support ... my laughter would have shaken the rafters. Yet here I am, 6 months into the death of my spouse and clutching "Quigley" as a comfort in the night. Believe it or not ... this weighted creature calms my body which has been in flight-or-fight mode for months now. Acute grief has triggered my body and emotion state into a high alert status. This Hugimal is proving its weight in gold and provides me with a physiological calming effect. I sleep more hours now with less nightly periods of wakefullness. Thank you for this product. I am grateful to have found your company ...

Best ever!

Thank you to Hugimals for sending another bunny to me when my shipment was not received from USPS. It was well-worth the wait, as a quick hug with the bunny is pure joy at the end of a long day! It instantly relaxes me, and I so appreciate it :)

Great customer service

My Sam the sloth was lost in the mail and I was so distraught. After some investigation I still didn't locate him. I reached out to customer care and they replaced him for free. I will definitely be buying others! Wonderful customer service. I really felt heard and cared for. 10/10

soooo soft and cuddly

i've struggled with really severe generalized anxiety disorder and general loneliness for years, which can be extra bad when i'm trying to sleep. having this plush on my chest and cuddling with it actually manages to help a bit. i'm a bit disappointed that it's not warmable like i thought it was (the Hugaround types are instead) but that's my own fault for not doing further research. as someone with really severe allergies who has tried other anxiety-relief plushies that were unfortunately scented and triggered a reaction, this has been such a blessing.

Comforting

I ordered my hugimal a couple years ago and I still love it just as much as the day I ordered it!! Quinn the koala brings me so much comfort, especially if my kids arent home or my husband is out of town. The weight of the hugimal laying on my chest relieves anxiety and calms me down. Love it so much !

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.
