Can anyone help me track down a Jellycat Fat Cat?

My sister gave DD a Jellycat cat years ago and she adored it. She lost it in TKMaxx one day about 3 years ago; we hunted all over the shop and asked staff but there was no sign of it. We thought it was long forgotten (she was only 5 when she lost it), but the other day we had tears and heartbreak from her because she missed it so much. She wrote to Santa then, asking if he could possibly find him and bring him back to her. I'd love to track one down for her, but it was first sold in 2002 and retired in 2013, so it's not easy to find. There's one on ebay but it's black, and it's a cream one we need. I've contacted Jellycat and they suggested a few shops to try, but we'd no luck with them.

Has anyone any suggestions? It's the cream version of this: www.ebay.com/itm/Jellycat-Fat-Cat-Black-Plush-Soft-Toy-Comforter-RARE-RETIRED/163396421413?hash=item260b2f8725:g:fb0AAOSwbX1b-v~4:rk:3:pf:0

i have had a look, and i can't seem to find one either. would it be possible for you to get the black one, and write a letter from santa telling your dd that it is her toys' twin, and that her toy has come to live with him to help him pack the presents (as she has a super sticky tongue to stick the wrapping paper!). we were in a similar situation a few years ago, but a letter like this and a toy in another colour seemed to work (and made my dd laugh.)

all the best x
