Mixed Wool → Firmer structure, crisper definition. Best for: short-haired breeds, Labs, Beagles, Shorthair cats, or any pet with distinct markings. Not sure? Choose Mixed — it works beautifully for most coat types. How to Send Us Great Photos Great photos = a plush that truly looks like your pet.

Pure Wool uses a single fiber type for a softer, fluffier result — ideal for long-haired or fluffy-coated pets. Mixed Wool blends fibers for more structural definition — ideal for short-haired breeds or pets with complex markings. When in doubt, Mixed Wool is the safer choice as it suits most coat types. What photos do I need to upload? Aim for 3–5 clear photos: a straight-on face shot, a side profile, and a full-body photo. Natural light (outdoors or near a window) is best. Avoid blurry shots, heavy filters, or photos where part of your pet is hidden. The more angles, the better the likeness. How long does it take? Crafting takes 3–5 weeks. Shipping adds 5–10 business days (US, EU, UK) or 7–14 business days (AU, NZ, Asia). Total: approximately 4–7 weeks from order to delivery. What if I'm not happy with the result? We send a preview photo before we ship. If anything is off, you get one free revision — just tell us what to adjust. If the final piece still doesn't delight you, we offer a full refund, no questions asked. Can you make a plush of a pet who has passed away? Yes, and this is among the most meaningful pieces we make. Upload the best photos you have — even older or scanned photos work as long as the fur colour and markings are visible. Many customers order a memorial plush as a way to keep their pet's memory close. Can I include two pets in one plush? Single-pet plushes are our standard offering, but contact us before ordering if you'd like a two-pet piece — we'll discuss sizing and confirm pricing. { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "How is the custom pet plush made from a photo?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "You upload clear photos of your pet at checkout.
