Findus Cat Review

Ruslan wanted Findus from Pettson and Findus for his daughter’s birthday, in a size small enough for her to carry. We sewed one to order.

Hello everybody! I decided to give my daughter a birthday present in the form of Findus the cat from the “Adventures of Pettson and Findus” cartoon, based on the books by Sven Nordqvist. Since the character is rather unique, I searched online for ages, but all I was able to find were various cheap Chinese knockoffs with unbalanced features and so forth. Then I saw a link to this site and noticed the option to order custom soft toys. The toy wasn’t cheap, but it was definitely worth it. I wrote an email with all the details for the toy I wanted made and attached a colored image from one of the books, so that the toy would look just like the character I wanted it to be based on. The order was taken right away. I had to answer a few follow-up questions regarding the toy’s size first, but that was also taken care of in a timely manner. (I needed a toy no taller than 25-30 cm since I wanted my daughter to carry it around, while the only Findus toy available on the site was 50 cm tall.) A bit over a week after my order, I was informed that the toy was ready and would be dispatched to me soon. I also received several photos of the finished product via email. At first, the photos made me think that the toy didn’t look quite the way I wanted it to, but when I opened the package and pulled out the toy itself, all my fears were swept away. The toy was a definitive depiction of Findus, with the same face, green striped pants, and a red winter glove on his tail :)) A big thanks to Vyacheslav and everyone else who worked on this project, and thanks for making him the right size. I’m sure my daughter will remember this present for a long time to come. Hopefully, Findus will become her best friend, to be taken everywhere and not just another random soft toy to be thrown into a dusty cupboard.
