Yummie Cats Cat Toast Plush 23 cm

The Yummie Cats are the cat line of the Yummies collection, in which food turns into plush. In the Cat Toast the cat sits in the sandwich as if in a basket: the golden-brown slice of toast with its light crust on top, the second slice underneath, green lettuce, red tomato and yellow cheese made of plush in between. The face is embroidered, not printed, the ears are pink inside. From the front the cat looks straight at you, from the side you see the sandwich in cross-section – with the lettuce leaf peeping out from under the cat.

The Cat Toast measures around 23 centimetres. The shape is compact and angular like a slice of toast – it can be stacked, stood up or pushed under your head as a small cushion. The plush is short-pile and soft, the filling yielding, so it gives when squeezed and finds its shape again afterwards. The label with the care instructions hangs on the product at purchase and can be removed.

Because cats famously squeeze into every box, every bag and every gap – so why not into a sandwich? The Yummie Cats take this habit literally and put the cat where it has no business being. The result is a cuddly toy you have to look at twice, and a talking point as soon as it lies on the sofa.

The Cat Toast looks good where you least expect it: on the kitchen shelf next to the real toaster, on the desk as a hand rest for breaks, in the children's room as a pillow for the dolls or on the sofa among the real cushions. Anyone who owns several Yummies stacks toast, burger and onigiri into a plush menu – the angular toast forms the stable base.

For cat people with a sense of humour, for children who collect cuddly toys, and for anyone who wants to decorate their sofa or bed with something unexpected. As a present, the Cat Toast is one that gets a laugh when unwrapped – for a birthday, as a small gift or as comfort for a broken heart, where a sandwich famously always helps.

Under the name Yummies there is a whole plush menu: sushi, burger, fries, beer, cupcake, avocado and more. The Yummie Cats combine this idea with cats – alongside the toast there are the Cat Burger and the Cat Bun. Collectors have a theme.

• Dab stains with a damp cloth and mild detergent
• If needed, wash in a laundry bag on a gentle cycle, then air dry
• Not in the tumble dryer, so that the embroidered details and the shape are preserved
• Fluff up the plush with a soft brush after drying
