Care & Safety

Remove the inner warming pouch before washing - it cannot get wet and should stay out until the wash is done.

If your wool-filled stuffed animal gets dirty, you can first remove the coarse dirt with a brush. Since Senger only uses the best quality natural fibers (no polyester), heavy washing is usually not necessary. The pure sheep's wool filling is a natural fiber that can shrink, mat, or clump if exposed to hot water, harsh detergent, or strong spinning.

Light Cleaning:

  • Brush off coarse dirt gently.

Washing (if necessary):

  • Hand wash only
  • Use lukewarm water (comfortable to touch)
  • Use mild or wool-specific detergent
  • Avoid hot water, harsh detergents, and spinning

Washing Process:

  • Soak in clear water first
  • Add detergent and gently move the toy in the water
  • Do not rub, brush, spin, or wring

Drying:

  • Squeeze out excess water gently
  • Lay flat on an absorbent towel
  • Reshape and move occasionally while drying
  • Wet wool smell will disappear after drying

Warming: warm the inner pouch in the oven on low heat (recommended), or in the microwave on low for a short period. Can also be cooled in the freezer.

How It Works

The inner cherry pits or grape seeds pouch lifts out through a zipper and warms gently in the oven on low heat, or briefly in the microwave on low, then slides back in for a comforting companion. It can also be cooled in the freezer.

Senger

Senger Naturwelt was founded in 1985 by Sabine and Volker Senger in Bavaria, Germany. Their handcrafted stuffed animals and warming companions are made from GOTS-certified organic cotton, with natural fillings including sheep's wool, spelt chaff, and cherry stones — many sourced from local German suppliers. Each piece is individually sewn and designed to be a lifelong companion.

Why Shop at Blue Otter Toys?

We do the filtering so you don't have to.

Blue Otter Toys carries a deliberately small selection of toys and children's goods chosen for craftsmanship, natural materials, and meaningful play. Many of the brands we carry come from small workshops in Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, and beyond — where toys are still made by hand from wood, wool, and cotton.

We believe children are drawn to beautiful, well-made objects that invite creativity, imagination, and discovery. We understand open-ended play, child development, and what genuinely engages children at different stages. Every product here passed that filter before it made it onto the site.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are Senger products made?

Senger animals are designed in Germany and sewn in Latvia, a member of the European Union. Production follows EU labor and safety standards, using natural materials and attention to detail.

What does the organic cotton on Senger animals feel like?

Senger uses certified organic cotton with pure wool filling, so the feel is more natural and textured than synthetic plush. The fabric softens with handling and after a gentle wash. Avoid fabric softener — Senger recommends against it for their materials.

What age is this appropriate for?

All Senger stuffed animals are safety graded for all ages.

What certifications does Senger use?

All Senger soft toys are made with GOTS-certified organic cotton and wool.

All Senger items are also tested to comply with US toy safety standards, including CPSIA and ASTM F963 requirements.

Are all Senger stuffed animals vegan?

No - some are filled with pure wool, others with organic cotton only. Check the Materials section on each product page, or filter by Vegan if that matters to you.

What sizes do Senger animals come in?

Senger "Floppy" animals come in Baby, Small, and Large.

Senger "Cuddly" Warming animals are available in Small, Large, XL, and even XXL for a couple of our biggest pieces.

Is the zipper hidden, or will my child feel it while cuddling?

Most of the warming animals have a fabric flap covering the zipper for comfort. A few have an exposed zipper instead — check the product photos if this matters to you.

What is the removable pouch filled with?

Large-size pouches are filled with spelt.

Small-size pouches come filled with either cherry pits or grape seeds.

How should I warm or cool the insert?

Large-size pouches should only be warmed in the oven on low heat - never the microwave. Small-size pouches can go in the oven on low, or briefly in the microwave on low. Either size can also be cooled in the freezer.

Do you carry other warming toys besides those offered by Senger?

Yes, we also carry an item from Efie: An organic cotton warmer that holds a small flask of warm water rather than a grain filling.

Can I replace the warming insert if it wears out?

Yes, we carry a replacement cherry pit insert. It doesn't fit every animal, though - the Small Deer, Dolphin, Otter, Seal, Shell, Starfish, and Whale use a different pouch shape.
