Soft Toy Otter - Stuffed Aminal Fish-Otter

Discover the high-quality cuddly toy otters of the Carl Dick Collection: At first, as a retailer, you think less of otters, but when Plueschtier.de was launched in 2007, it was exactly these plush animals that fascinated our first customers. And if you have ever touched such an otter plush toy from the Carl Dick Collection, then you know why these rodents are so popular.
Otters belong to the marten family and if you compare them to those in the store, you can also see that there are certain similarities.
It is especially cute that the plush otters usually turn their heads sideways and thus look at us as sweetly as a stuffed animal otter can. The otters of Plueschtier.de arrive dry with you, so that the stroking can begin immediately. In the zoo you can often see the little "water rats" flitting back and forth between water and land.
Why not try it out and give a stuffed animal lover a plush otter as a gift? Because whether as a pretty decoration or to play, cuddle and love - the fluffy otters are always a successful and loving gift idea.

Buy Otters as stuffed animals - the living role models are perfectly adapted to life in the water

otter plush toy stuffed animalOtters have existed on earth for about five million years - of course not quite as long as the cuddly toy otter in the assortment of Plueschtier.de. Certainly, the lying otter is one of the most popular classics among the cuddly toys in the range.

Strictly speaking, one must speak of the Eurasian otter with our otters, since there are still some other otter species in the world. The Eurasian otter lives in Europe, North Africa and Asia. We humans rarely get to see these shy animals in the wild, as they are nocturnal and crepuscular.

The lively guys have a high urge to move and are perfectly adapted to life in the water. You can see it in the streamlined, slender body of these amphibious predators. They are correspondingly good divers and can stay underwater for up to eight minutes at a time before they have to catch their breath. And to keep warm in the water, otters have a particularly thick coat that protects them from wetness and cold. And in the case of plush otters, this is of course pleasantly fluffy.

Being in the water so much consumes quite a bit of energy. That's why otters have to eat a lot to maintain their body temperature. And fish is the main ingredient on their menu, although not exclusively. They eat so much of it that they often compete with humans for fish stocks - unfortunately, this is one of the reasons why they were often hunted in the past and almost became extinct. In addition, otters have a beautiful and dense fur - another reason for hunting by humans.

And since their natural habitat is often destroyed by humans, otters do not have it easy and are unfortunately on the red list of animals threatened with extinction. Which was also drawn attention to in 2021, when the otter was chosen as the animal of the year in Germany.

For their territories, which are often many kilometers long, the animals need clean, shallow waters with an intact riparian landscape where they can find shelter. Unfortunately, this is often lacking in today's landscape, which has been built up and changed by man. In addition, bridges often cut through the waters, which otters often want to bypass and take risky paths.

And so we hope, of course, that the living otters can have it as good in the wild as the cute plush otters will have it at home.

Cuddly toy otter - the lively otters are popular as a cute gift idea with young and old

The fact that plush toy otters are so well received is also not surprising, because the living role models simply have something cute and likeable in themselves.
Their head with its small ears and the distinctive mustache with its tactile hairs contribute to the cuddly appearance of the animals belonging to the marten. Just as adorable are the short legs with the flippers between the toes.

The Carl Dick Collection lovingly translates this cute look into the cuddly toy version. As a cuddly toy otter in a lying position, he comes along especially cute. Because the real otters are also playful and also like to let themselves float relaxed on their backs in the water. The cute cuddly toy is particularly popular for playing as well as a pretty decoration.

All cuddly toys on offer are from the Carl Dick Collection. The traditional brand has been successful on the market for over 30 years and is a specialist in cuddly toys with its headquarters in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. Details about the material used, mostly high-quality acrylic wool, can always be found on the respective product page.

Care tips for the stuffed animal Otter

We recommend for all stuffed animals in our offer to wash them by hand with lukewarm water, should one of the cute otters get dirty and can take a bath. You can find detailed advice on this in our care tips for cuddly toys.
