Weighted Wildlife® is a weighted plush brand designed by Nathaniel Manns, an autistic artist who wished to create the best weighted plush on the market.

Launched in the summer of 2023 by an overwhelmingly successful Kickstarter campaign, Weighted Wildlife® strives to provide a travel-friendly alternative to weighted blankets with a constantly growing variety of animal species to choose from!

Unlike other weighted plush brands, Weighted Wildlife® focuses on the actual end user of the plush, which is most often those with sensory and anxiety issues, though they can provide a relaxing buddy to anyone!

Designed by an autistic artist living with C-PTSD and a panic disorder, we know first hand what does and doesn't work for sensory safe toys and is constantly striving to improve each and every new design Weighted Wildlife® offers.

Transitioning to recycled faux fur in all our plush and already using 100% curbside recyclable packaging, we also take our commitment to the environment seriously. As we grow, sales of Weighted Wildlife will be contributed to various wildlife conservation programs to further our sustainability goals.
