Arthur is one of my homemade plushies. My mom made him from a piece of recycled vison furr and fleece. His eyes are buttons. He is very tiny and when I was a kid, Caprice, the family cat at the time, would just LOVE to carry him around in her mouth. She would climb the ladder to the top bunk bed to get to him.
Now my mom sewed a second hedgehog, and she even put some catnip in it, but Caprice would still go for mine and ignore hers.
Arthur is named after a pet hedgehog in series of books I loved when I was just starting to read : "Emilie".
