Meet Otis, an extra-wide, extra-chubby weighted stuffed animal made for the ultimate cuddle. With 2.2 lbs / 1 kg of comforting belly weight and ultra-soft fur, Otis gives you something soft and substantial to hold, helping you unwind, feel comforted, and settle down for sleep. Whether he’s on your lap, in bed, or curled up with you on the couch, Otis brings the comforting feeling of a cuddle whenever you need it.
Otis is scientifically inspired by the comforting feeling of a cuddle. The combination of touch, softness, and something substantial to hold creates comforting tactile stimulation.
Research suggests that comforting touch stimulation can help buffer the body's physiological response to stress.
In other words, a cuddle can send your body a simple message:
“You're safe. You can slow down now.”
Research into comforting touch and cuddling has linked touch with:
Otis is designed around one simple idea: Sometimes, you just need a cuddle - no questions asked.
Otis is the perfect size to cuddle up with in bed, snuggle on the couch, or keep comfortably on your lap while you work or relax.
All our weighted animals have the CPC Certificate (Children's Product Certificate) for product safety tested in the US, as well as the CE mark for product safety tested in the EU.
Even with a weighted body, Otis can still be washed easily!
We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth for smaller messes. For deeper cleaning, hand wash gently using mild soap and air dry.
Machine washing and harsh chemicals can affect the softness of Otis's fur.

When you cuddle Otis, his ultra-soft fur and extra-chubby body create continuous tactile stimulation. Research shows that touch can play a meaningful role in emotional and physical well-being.
Research has found that comforting touch can reduce the body's cortisol response following stress. Otis is designed around that same simple idea: giving you something comforting to hold when life feels like a little too much.
Softness, touch, and 2.2 lbs / 1 kg of comforting weight create a soothing sensory experience you can make part of your wind-down routine. Cuddle Otis on the couch, hold him in bed, or keep him on your lap when you want to settle in and get cozy.
Extra wide. Extra chubby. Extra soft. Otis's substantial body gives you more to wrap your arms around, while his weighted bottom adds a satisfying heaviness that makes every cuddle feel that little bit more comforting.

* Results according to consumer studies.
Yes. Research has linked comforting touch with benefits including reduced anxiety and stress-related outcomes, and studies of hugs and self-soothing touch have found lower cortisol responses following stressful experiences. Otis isn't a medical treatment, but his design is inspired by this research and the simple comfort of having something soft to cuddle.
Otis weighs 2.2lbs / 1 kg, with his weight concentrated on his bottom. That gives him a satisfying, substantial feel without turning him into anything too heavy and overstimulating. The perfect cuddle buddy!
Yes! We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth for everyday messes. For deeper cleaning, hand wash gently and air dry.
Otis is made to be part of your wind-down routine. Cuddling something soft and comforting can give you a relaxing way to transition from a busy day to bedtime, while his extra-wide body gives you plenty to wrap your arms around. Think of him as your designated bedtime cuddler!
Anyone above the age of 5 can benefit from Otis!
All our weighted animals have the CPC Certificate (Children's Product Certificate) for product safety tested in the US, as well as the CE mark for product safety tested in the EU.
Due to his weight, we don’t recommend it for very young children or pets.
Everyone’s nervous system is different. Some people feel relief instantly, while others notice benefits after a few consistent uses. Either way, Otis the Otter is there for you for the long-haul!
We wanted a weighted animal that was actually made for cuddling. Most weighted plushies are cute, but they’re often too small or narrow to really wrap your arms around, more something you hold than something you can properly cuddle.
That’s why we designed Otis differently. His extra-wide, extra-chubby body gives you more to wrap your arms around, while 2.2lbs / 1kg of comforting weight makes every cuddle feel satisfyingly substantial. Add ultra-soft fur and a customizable front pocket, and Otis is basically what happens when you design a weighted stuffie entirely around one thing: a really, really good cuddle.
