How to Clean Your Lambskin Panda
- This ain’t your average plush – the lambskin fur is handcrafted, so NO water or washing machines. Got a stain? First, gently blot with a dry cloth. If it’s stubborn, use aslightlydamp cloth + a drop of lambskin-safe cleaner (always wipewiththe fur direction!). Finish with an alcohol wipe. Pro tip: Real wool stays fresh longer – you’ll rarely need to clean it.
Uh-Oh, It Got Wet!
- Panic mode OFF. Grab a low-heat blow dryerimmediately– water messes with the leather’s vibe. Dry it like you’re defusing a bomb: slow and steady.
Sun & Moisture: The Drama Twins
- Keep your panda out of direct sunlight (UV rays turn wool yellowish over time). But hey – if the fur ages into a vintage patina, it’ll lookmorelike a wild panda! A little yellowing = instant authenticity points. Just avoid dunking it in pools, okay?
Fluff Masterclass
- Use the brush we sent – strokewiththe fur, like petting a real cub. Shedding a few fibers? Totally normal. Lambskin has self-cleaning magic – brushing lifts dirt and keeps it cloud-soft.
Handling 101
- This isn’t a stress ball. The head has a hand-carved inner structure – don’t crush it. Limbs are hand-stitched with reinforced joints (no yanking!). Eyes are acrylic – treat ’em like grandma’s china. Basically, love it like a living thing, and it’ll outlast your couch.

Will my panda turn into a black bear if unwashed?
