For Ds not me

He loves them and has asked for a real one that can live in the garden so I thought next best thing is a cuddly one that can live in his room LOL

Can anyone point me in the right direction ??

Do you live near a zoo by chance?

moondog · 03/09/2006 21:56

No you don't.
It will piss you off after about 2 days.
Buy a little plastic one.

Erm I can get to a zoo, it's not close by but I could make a trip I suppose.

He has a little plastic one but he said it's not a real giraffe cos it's small.

Will check out Hamleys, doubt I can afford Steiff this week

Bit different, but can you sponsor a giraffe for him too? Zoos often do this, doesn't cost a lot - maybe £30 a year?.

JackieNo · 03/09/2006 22:10

Two here - the first one's not much cop, but scroll down to the second - it's better.

Ohh that ones quite good Jackie, have bookmarked that one.

I did look into Sponsering one but i'm not sure how often I can afford to take him to see it etc etc and also he would think he was taking it home LOL.

Sitting down one - love the site - if you ever need a cuddly aardvark, you know where to go. And I think 'Interfauna' is a fab name.
