Hello!

How well do piggies do with plush toys? I know not to get anything with buttons in case they try to eat it, but are there any other materials I should look out for? My boys like to sleep and eat, so I think I might get them a snorlax.

Thank you for replying.

If it is safe for a baby, should be safe for the guinea pigs. Do watch out for chewing though.

Nothing with hard eyes, noses, or ribbons. Cut off tags, don't rip off because it can damage the stitching. Embroidered on eyes and noses are ok.
Check it over every day. I don't recommend anything with longish "fur" on it either, it is to hard to tell if anyone is nibbling and it would encourage them to barber the plush toy. Smooth fabrics are the better option.

Make sure it's not stuffed with beads like the bean bag toys such as Beanie Baby Brand animals. It should also be washable, as it may be dragged through poo and pee.
