Squishmallow help!

Racksonracks · 2024-12-04T22:00:13+00:00

Hi everyone, I hope that you are all getting prepped for Christmas! I just wanted to ask if anyone, ^anyone^, has seen the Cam the Cat squishmallow in shops? It’s the only thing my daughter has asked for and I cannot find it anywhere, aside from obvious fakes on eBay, and £50 (!) ones on Amazon. It’s a calico cat with smiley eyes. Thank you for reading!

Thank you for the link! That’s the one, but without the hat. She needs the original, apparently 🙄

There is a brand new one on Vinted. It won't let me link it but worth a look!

Thank you both! I can’t find the Vinted one but I will keep looking!
I almost ordered the eBay one, but then I saw the size. She wants the normal squishmallow sized one.

Urgh. Why do they always want the hard to find things!

Have you checked in b&m they have loads of squishmallows.

mechanicallyinept · 05/12/2024 13:41

My daughter has a Cam and she asked for Cam's twin Jack the black cat (or something) for Xmas. When I did my research this 'twin' was a rare squishmallow that they only made few hundred of, and which cost like £10,000!

When I informed my 7yo they were really rare and expensive she responded 'that's ok, Santa can just made another'.

I then had to lie and say something like the elf that made this black cat had passed away and none of the other elves knew how to make it the same.

shellyleppard · 05/12/2024 13:50

hi op my son says hes seen it in b and m

Shufflebumnessie · 05/12/2024 13:58

There's this one on Amazon but there's a chance it might not arrive in time (estimated delivery from 22/12 - 22/01)
https://amzn.eu/d/131gDIP

You could always get thia cushion version and make up a reason why the real one hasn't arrived yet!!

Bloody hell.

DD wanted the Wizard of Oz ones but it was a hard no with the postage costs!

LostCats · 05/12/2024 15:23

Oh no, sorry, I meant that was the total price not just the postage.

Thank you all so much! I think I’m going to have to go with the Amazon one - thanks for the link! And I will take a look in b and m and try and get lucky. I can always send the Amazon one back if so

Dd wants a taylor swift hoodie that is out of stock but "it's okay, Santa's elves can make it". I might steal this idea.

Omg 😂 pretending an elf has died to protect the Christmas magic is quite funny 😂

valentinoandme · 05/12/2024 18:23

Worth checking in The Works and Smyth's - I found ones in there that were not on their websites. Luckily my DD asked for Cam with the hat!

LochNessy · 05/12/2024 18:35

I’m so so sure I’ve seen that one in b&m!! I know that doesn’t necessarily help as you’d still need to track it down and varying stock in different stores but hopefully you can find one!

Thanks all! I will go on a B&M trawl at the weekend, but otherwise I should have the Amazon one to fall back on. Phew!
