JoeW Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Our recommendation is to hand wash because: Agitation in a washing machine or dryer could affect the internal mechanism It will take longer to dry if the plush has been submerged as it has many layers and machine dryers with heat could damage the rubber mechanism. Submerging the plush or putting it in a washing machine might cause water to enter the mechanism and be difficult to get out which could cause mold issues if any water is stuck inside; so it might still fart, but we wouldn't really want there to be a little bit of water stuck inside Suggestion for Surface Stains: Get a white cloth (white cloth helps to see if stain is coming off) Dampen the cloth with warm water and dish soap and try to dab and gently rub up the dirt, and be careful not to get things too wet. After hand washing the stain away, fluff up the fur with a clean damp cloth and until you have wiped away any remaining soap residue and allow to air dry. To remove odor / smell (not visible dirt): Put the stuffed animal in a sealable plastic bag with a cup of baking soda. Shake the bag for about 20 seconds and let it sit outside in the sun or inside by a window. Remove the plush toy, vacuum it, and voila— this removes most all odors.
