It's unknown when or where we met. There is no smoking or pets in the environment. It's a little dusty, but generally clean. Please understand that it has not been washed. Also, we cannot be held responsible for issues such as excessive shedding after you wash it yourself. These stuffed animals have been kept in bags for a long time. I apologize. I hope someone will cherish them. There are other stuffed animals as well, so please take a look. You can also take home several at once. There is a bear with the same ribbon and eyes as this rabbit. There is also another bear that is yellow and similar. You can purchase it immediately.
