Cuddle Clones: “Where Our Friends Take Shape”

So, there I was, snowed-in, catching up on several years of reading my old college alumni magazines when I came across a paragraph (in a Spring 2015 magazine) about Jennifer Graham Williams (’00, University of Puget Sound), founder and CCO (chief cloning officer) of Cuddle Clones.

Intrigued because I am a dog person, I checked out the website. And love it! I want a Cuddle Clone!

What a great idea, IF they are truly look-alikes. And they are!

Accessories, Anyone?

How about outfitting your stuffie with a new collar or hoodie or T-shirt? You can do that, too.

How-To

Just send in a photo of your loved one. You can also select the ears – up, folded or floppy; the mouth – open or closed; sitting, lying down or standing, and more. Or order a sandstone figurine or ornament or bedroom slippers or jewelry. The possibilities are endless.

Cuddle Clones also donates to pet causes around the world, such as Dogs on Deployment: Support Your Troops by Boarding Their Pets.
