Carmie Soft Mountain Lion by Douglas: A Playful Cougar Cub Companion
Meet Carmie, a genuine Douglas Soft Mountain Lion
Carmie is a genuine Douglas® Mountain Lion plush from the Douglas Softs collection. She is modelled on a mountain lion cub, the wild cat that many people also know as the cougar or the puma. Her coat is a warm caramel shade with cream accents, and gentle airbrushed markings across her face give her a lifelike look without losing any of her softness. Her amber eyes have a playful sparkle that suits a curious young cub perfectly.
You can see her photos, her current price and her availability on the Carmie Soft Mountain Lion product page.
How big is Carmie?
Carmie measures about 28 cm (11 inches) long and weighs about 198 g (7 oz). In ESSA UK terms that makes her a Medium companion: a comfortable size to hold in your lap or tuck under one arm, and light enough to carry from room to room or pack for a weekend away. Her body is floppy and posable, so she can sit up, stretch out or settle across your arm. If you are comparing sizes, our ESSA size guide explains every Douglas plush size side by side, so you can picture her at home before you order.
Why wild cat fans love her
- A natural cub colouring: caramel plush with cream accents, finished with soft airbrushed detail.
- Expressive eyes: her amber eyes give her a bright, slightly mischievous expression.
- Made to be handled: a floppy, posable body that is lovely to cuddle and easy to arrange on a shelf or a bed.
- Realistic yet huggable: she looks like a real mountain lion cub while staying soft enough for everyday cuddles.
A comfort companion for every day
Many of our customers keep a Douglas plush as their ESSA, a comfort companion they name, take on trips or keep close at home. Carmie suits that role well for anyone who likes a lighter, softer plush to hold. Her floppy body relaxes into your hands, and her gentle face makes her a calm presence on a bedside table or a desk. An ESSA is a comfort plush rather than a medical product, and any plush you love can become one. If the idea is new to you, read our guide to what a comfort plush companion is.
Is Carmie a good gift?
Carmie makes a thoughtful present for anyone who loves big cats, wildlife programmes or a day out at a wildlife park. She suits children who are ready for plush toys, as she is suitable from 24 months, and she is just as welcome with adults who collect realistic wildlife plush. Her warm caramel colouring looks lovely in a gift box, and many people like to give her a name straight away, which is half the fun of welcoming a new companion home.
Looking after Carmie
Carmie is machine washable, so she is easy to keep fresh after plenty of cuddles and adventures. She is suitable from 24 months.
