I have a few plushies, but my collection has really dwindled lately. I have some beanie babies, a plushie of Kyo (the cat from Fruits Basket), and a skelanimal bunny (http://www.likecool.com/Gear/Toy/Skelanimals%20Jack%20Rabbit/Skelanimals-Jack-Rabbit.jpg). Growing up I had literally hundreds of plushies of all different animals.

I've recently decided to limit my collection to the smaller beanie bears. They don't take up near as much room. I have about 40 or 50 of them in a big plastic tub and there's still room there for plenty more, plus it's easier to sew a second body for a smaller bear if they fall apart ( I've practiced a lot. I can cut a bear shape out of a piece of fabric freehand without the need for a pattern  ) than it is a bigger one.  There's a beanie bear flopped over my shoulder as I type that. One of the early ones that was hard as hell to find in the 90s when the craze was going on. Fortunately for me prices have gone way down and availability way up.

Hehe, since I couldn't stay on task cleaning up my room I took a pic of my puppets (which I consider plushies as well). They get plenty of cuddling.

How cute! lol *squeezes*

i have just the one... a lion i picked up from west-midlands safari when i went there just before i left for uni. he's pretty much all golden... i was thinking about attempting to dye him into the colours of my character, but nah... i like him too much the way he is to ruin it. he sits on my bedside table looking at me when i'm in bed, but sometimes if i'm doing a long sesh of coding work or producing/writing, i'll sit him atop one of my speakers so he can watch me do that too... what a thrilling roller-coaster lifestyle he leads huh?

I kind of have a random assortment on the overhang above my bed.  Maybe 10 or so.  Of them my three favs are my Ein the Corgi, Stitch (Lilo and Stitch), and Ryo Ohki (cabbit).  However, I have around 50 bears in dry storage ranging in all shapes and sizes.  Most of them are collectibles left to me by my grandmother but among them is the very first teddy bear I ever had.  He was made by my grandmother and given to me by her when I was born.   I still pull him out and cuddle him once in a while when I'm feeling down.

I had that fox! I ended up sending it to a furry friend I met on livejournal ( back when I had a livejournal that is ).

I went to the zoo recently, and finally got two cheetah plushies! I have them resting on top of my computer. 

Now I still need to find a Jaguar plush....
