He's fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438898 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 13:24:18 +0000 Alba4 2438898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wash stuffed animals in a garment bag for delicates. I also use the setting for delicates. The hair never matted for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438826 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 12:43:46 +0000 Mommy Finger 2438826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a lion that similar to the one below and had to wash it.

I think they've even been through the dryer a couple times. :) Glad bunbun will be back in action soon! Non washable stuffed friends do not make the cut at our house, ha ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438736 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 11:45:59 +0000 fmmtk 2438736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: I love that your daughter calls it bun bun. We have developed a serious attachment to our bun bun in the past week, completely ditching our previous loves. </p> <p>I've successfully washed our entire collection of stuffed animals after a week of messy illness, including several jelly cats. As others have said, hand wash cycle and air drying are key and they still look new! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438547 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:00:23 +0000 PinkElephant 2438547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks, everyone. Bun Bun is on his way to the spa as we speak. </p> <p>@chopsuey: The fur is already a little matted from lots of love, so no big issues there. :)</p> <p>@youboots: Genius! You get a mommy gold star for that one! :) I've got a wire doll brush for DD1's American Girl, that should do the trick.</p> <p>@Foodnerd81: Haha working the knots out of American Girl doll hair is seriously good stress relief :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438476 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 09:16:45 +0000 youboots 2438476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: ha! I found a cute bumblebee costume at a consignment shop in the fall for Halloween this year. It took a bit to brush it out. I felt ridiculous. But it's so cute and not matted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438470 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 09:13:59 +0000 Foodnerd81 2438470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never washed it but we have the same bunny so glad to see you can. But I'm kind of laughing to myself picturing grown women sitting around brushing their stuffed bunnies @catlady: @youboots: :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438434 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 08:48:43 +0000 catlady 2438434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have that exact bunny and it's gone through the wash several times. The fur is never the same after you wash them (it gets sort of matted). But I've noticed that the fur gets like that anyway after awhile if they are well loved. I put them in a tied up pillow case when I throw them in, and use the hand wash and air dry cycles.</p> <p>@youboots: Never thought about brushing them! I am going to try this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438414 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 08:38:14 +0000 JerricaBenton 2438414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wash all stuffed animals including jellycats on 'hand wash' cycle and air dry. I put them in lingerie bags. They always come out fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438401 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 08:27:04 +0000 pwnstar 2438401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: That's right! I forgot to add that I also air dry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438393 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 08:23:15 +0000 Charm54 2438393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dd1's has gone on many "spa trips" to the washer/dryer and always comes out clean and fairly soft :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438391 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 08:22:13 +0000 youboots 2438391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've washed that exact bunny after my dogs got ahold of it. I air dry. You can brush if there are any mattes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438388 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 08:17:47 +0000 pwnstar 2438388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I third @chopsuey: and @GreenThumb: . . . LO has several jelly cats that have been through the wash and they are all still soft and adorable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438385 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 08:15:46 +0000 GreenThumb 2438385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: I agree with @chopsuey: . We have a jellycat lovey that goes through the machine regularly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438382 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 08:12:16 +0000 chopsuey 2438382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've washed the kids' jelly cats numerous times in the wash. The fur won't ever be the same texture, but ours are still fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-los-jellycat-in-the-machine#post-2438379 Wed, 27 Jan 2016 08:09:36 +0000 PinkElephant 2438379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Help! When I walked into DD2's room this AM, a wave of pee-stench hit me - her diaper somehow leaked and she was soaked up the front...as were the mound of blankets/stuffed toys she sleeps on top of. I'm about to throw everything in the wash, but am not sure about her Jellycat Bashful Bunny because it is kind of shaggy/long haired.</p> <p>It's this one, and mainly the ear that is seems to be wet/stinky, so I hand washed that part for now...but I'd really love to throw the whole thing in the wash if it won't destroy it.<br /> <a href="http://www.jellycat.com/us/bashful-beige-bunny-bas3b/" rel="nofollow">http://www.jellycat.com/us/bashful-beige-bunny-bas3b/</a></p> <p>Help, please! :) </p>
