Lost soft toy in Docking, Norfolk! Heartbroken son!

[Kittykat89]

Posting on AIBU for traffic.

Huge long shot- anyone in the village of Docking this weekend seen a Jellycat tiger soft toy? We are desperate to be reunited with George the tiger as he is hugely sentimental.

We retraced our footsteps just a few minutes later and he had been picked up.

Have you checked Facebook to see if they have a local page it could be posted on

They seem to be very small groups with infrequent updates- have requested to join 3 of them but not been accepted yet. I have put my number on local noticeboards and through the houses I think we were passing when my son dropped George. I'll check in the church lost and found tomorrow when it's open and I'll check with the local shop too. Any ither bright ideas?

Hi. I’m not too far from you but I do have a friend in Docking. Would it be worth copying/pasting your OP on my Facebook thing? Without your mumsnet details of course.

Maybe e-bay to get a lookalike?

Can you find the nearest local newspaper and post on their Facebook page, maybe?

Sorry I don’t know the area, but is this near enough?

Also our local radio station KLFM are pretty good at shout outs for lost pets/toys.

They’re on Facebook too.

Yes please to sharing my post on your friend's facebook Alex! I'll also messagethe local radio to see if they can help, great idea! Thanks so much!

The local radio are going to do a plea on the radio and they're sharing a photo on their social media. Thanks so much for the great idea. Not feeling very hopeful but just got to try everything!

Is it the new tiger or retired one?

I posted your OP last night on Facebook and now Jellycat is now there via klfm. There’s been a few-replies. One mentions the Spar shop.

Thanks so much for your recommendation, I checked their page a couple of times and hadn't seen that it had gone up until just now. I asked in that Spar and looked at and near the post box that is mentioned a few times after we lost him and I think he had already gone. Thank you so much for trying to help! xx
