Morgan The Manatee - 21 Inch Stuffed Animal Plush (New Edition)

The manatee, or sea cow has great meaning to me. It was one of my mother’s favorite animals. We tried to visit the manatee when mom & dad could handle the trip, when we visited them in Florida. Mom especially loved to watch the mama manatees with their babies — heartwarming & always brought a smile to mom’s beautiful face. Mom left us 13 years ago, but those gentle giants will always hold a special connection to my mom. When my stuffed manatee arrived from Amazon, I immediately thought “oh, how childish of me at 67 to buy myself a stuffed animal!” But on second look, I chuckled, & my heart melted as I realized how much she reminded me of my Mom. So maybe I am childish, but this beautiful stuffed replica of a manatee will forever remain with me, reminding me of my wonderful, sweet Mom & times we shared with the manatee. And my manatee has a new name, BETTY JANE as she is now named after my mom. This is the perfect size stuffed animal, soft & cuddly, perfect for most any age.

This plushie is soft, adorable, and one of only a handful of designs that I like. 5 stars, no questions asked.

In November I went into the hospital for some serious surgery - a good friend told to bring a stuffed animal, I thought she was nuts, I'm a grown man who hasn't had a stuffed animal in decades, not that I have anything against them in fact quite the opposite, I think they're charming - if you're eleven.She assured me it could make a difference, so as I'm shopping on Amazon for a few things I needed to bring along to the hospital, I typed in "stuffed manatee" because I'm partial to sea cows and viola there he was and I'm happy to have him. I named him Harley after my Bulldog and just like my Bulldog I smile every time I see this funny looking guy.Very plush and well made, solid stitching and a really nice attention to detail abounds - he's weights in certain places with tiny beads which help him to stay in whatever position you put him in and because of his length of 17 inches he makes just about the best neck pillow you'll ever find and still to this day when I read in bed I put him to work. Everyone needs a stuffed Manatee even if they don't realize it so that said, I can assure that regardless of age should you choose to bring Morgan The Manatee home - you'll never regret it.

Soft and fun

This manatee is so cute, soft & huggable.

My granddaughter loves it!! Good quality. Fast delivery.

This was a gift for my niece who lives in Florida and was where I lived most my life and return twice a year.. anyway.. of course we revere manatees in Florida. I had no clue my niece really really wanted one and I was buying it for bday but she was now turning 16.. rather old for a stuffy maybe. She had been asking her mom for a manatee sutffed animal and I had had no idea. it was not small at all and had plenty detail for a manatee that in actuality is basically a blob in real life lol. No one outgrows the wonder of a big gentle vulnerable manatee.

This is a gift for our granddaughter who loves manatees. It was very well-packaged, compressed but it fluffed up to a very good size per instructions. Very soft, no odor, life-like "face." She loves it!
