There is a company out there who makes plush replicas of your pets. That’s right – a stuffed animal that looks exactly like your furry companion. They’re called Cuddle Clones, and they’re awesome.
There are several reasons you might want a miniature, stuffed version of your animal. Initially, that sounds a little creepy – but it can be a totally adorable and endearing thing to have!
If you want a cool gift for someone, or you'd like to honor the memory of a pet who has passed, getting yourself or your loved one a stuffed animal version of a beloved pet could be a really unique thing to do.
There is now a company out there which takes photos of your pet (small and large pets alike!) and produces a stuffed animal version of it for you to have forever.
Getting a Cuddle Clone is super easy. You just send in pictures of your pet, and choose customizations such as eye color, tail position, ears, etc., and then they make a (usually smaller) version of your pet and mail it to you!
Now you can cuddle your pet while you’re on the road, or have a “version” of your pet to keep in your office. This is a great idea for kids, who often want to take their pets with them everywhere they go, but obviously cannot.
It can also be a good way to carry on a deceased pet's memory, and make you feel like they're still here with you. This can be beneficial to those mourning the loss of a pet.

They are able to make cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, and other small and large companion animals.
Pricing starts at around $180 and goes up to around $250. If you pre-order now, you can expect to get it sometime in April. You can also pay extra to get it rush ordered (taking anywhere from 2-6 weeks). The company even gives 100% of your money back if you don’t absolutely love your Cuddle Clone.
If you want something that resembles your pet or if you're on the hunt for a really cool gift idea, this company also offers customized ornaments, slippers, jewelry, accessories, and memorial items.

The best part about this whole quirky, awesome deal is that a portion of each Cuddle Clone purchase goes as a donation toward pet-related causes such as rescues, sanctuaries, and medical funds for individual animals in need.
So not only can you get an identical replica of the pet you have and love so much, but you can also feel great knowing that some of the money you’ll pay for it goes to amazing rescue organizations!
