To harness the power of Mumsnet to make a little girl's Christmas...

[Bicnod]

Posting here for traffic because I am clearly not BU

My friend's DD has lost her beloved Floffel. Floffel is her seal cuddly toy from babyhood and will never be found again as Floffel was lost overseas.

Friend's DD has written to Father Christmas asking for Floffel back. Nothing else on the list - just Floffel.

They don't effing make Floffel anymore

Friend's DD as been through the wringer lately - can't go into details as would be outing but suffice to say she could really really do with a boost.

Please please please wonderful people of Mumsnet - if you happen to have an Aurora Naturally seal like the one in the photo hanging around your house (it's flannel not plush apparently and has the word 'naturally' on its bum) that you'd be willing to sell/give away it would truly honestly make this little girl's Christmas.

TIA

Thank you WombOfOnesOwn - will attempt to get google to translate the page!

PersianCatLady - might end up having to go down that route but keeping fingers crossed we'll somehow find original Floffel...

NotAgainYoda - will tell Friend about that!!

Thanks Tiredpigeon - will email them.

Annie you're probably right - will see if I can find an email address for them.

Bumping for you OP!

I am sadly no help,but I'm keeping fingers and toes crossed this has an amazing ending for this little girl x

Oh my that letter is heartbreaking. I really hope you find one!

I think this is the company that make them - Aurora

Awww poor little love

www.auroraworld.eu

This is the EU rather than the US website and there is a contact address in the UK.

Just marking my place to see if ImMeMe manages to rescue her one. Would be a lovely ending if she does.

Good luck Op.

What country was Floffle lost in?

Fingers crossed x

Ok I've emailed Aurora in the US and Aurora in the UK as well as Teddybearland - have linked to this thread in emails/contact forms so they have the back story (and know they'll get some positive publicity if they come good with Floffel!!)

Thank you thank you thank you - you are all being as wonderful as I knew you would be

You could try contacting this Amazon seller

Floffle's little sister?

If you want me to write to the one that AWombofOnesOwn linked to I can do it for you. We´re in Spain and speak Spanish.

Does anyone speak Spanish? It looks to be available here productos.parabebes.com/foca-natural-aurora-naturally_cp5ad20.html

Sorry cross post!

Oh I hope you find one and make this little girls Christmas.
