Lonely Singles Can Now Snuggle With A Giant Emotional Support Bear

Introducing, The Loving Bear Puffy, human-size emotional support bear that comes in the shape and size of a male human body — but has the head of a teddy bear.

Its maker says Puffy is “a very personal product invented by an ordinary woman who is afraid of being alone.”

The 5-foot, 7-inch oversize plush bear — weighing just 7 pounds — is $160 and “replaces the need for the physical presence of a person in various moments and situations of everyday life, especially during long lonely nights.”

The milky-brown bear is produced by a Bulgarian company founded by model and designer Ina Marholeva who says, “Puffy is made with a human shape and size to replace as much as possible the lack of physical presence when we need to hug or lean.”

The company even pointed out that the human-size bear offers some benefits over the company of a man.

“He doesn’t snore, he doesn’t grumble or get angry”.
