Manhattan Toy Nursing Nina Nurturing Cat Stuffed Animal with Plush Kittens 10 inch

I knew these were going to be fairly small when I ordered thanks to some other reviews, they were still a little smaller than I expected. However, they are very cute and good quality. I have a cat obsessed 3 year old daughter and she is in love with this little family. She plays with them all every day, she takes each one to bed every night

Nursing Nina Our sweet little great niece, Nora, just turned five. She wanted NURSING NINA so badly -- even though she owns two real dogs, she wanted this cat and her nursing kittens! When she reached into her gift bag and pulled it out, NINA automatically became the hit of Nora's birthday party! Made very well, this cat and her kittens will receive plenty of love from your little one. If you wished, you could answer any of their questions about animals/humans nursing their young. When we asked Nora what the kittens were doing, she looked at us as if we were nuts and said THEY ARE EATING DINNER! This toy is made very well. The kittens connect with magnets which are securely embedded inside each cat so they may attach to NINA. Both mama and her three little kittens are soft, durable, and probably will have washing directions attached; I did not think to look at any washing directions when the gift was in my possession. There is also a NURSING NANA dog with her three little puppies that is also available. This toy is cute as the dickens and can help any questions your kids may throw at you! Very cool gift for your special little girl!

*UPDATE* We loved the kitty so much that we purchased the bunny too and it’s absolutely adorable. It comes with teeny tiny baby bunnies. These plushies are SO cute that you can’t help but love them! Initial Review: Purchased for my child and it is so incredibly soft and huggable. The teeny kittens are the most precious thing. The “smile” on Mama kittys face is just so satisfying to see like she’s a proud and loving mama cat. The kittens are soft and the magnets are perfect to attach the babies mouths when they feed from the mom. Very sweet little gift. There is a Momma’s Milk paperback kids book that goes along so nicely with this and makes a great gift.

My parents gave this to my daughter for her fourth birthday and she loves it. She fondly remembers being nursed into toddlerhood and has been incorporating that aspect of nurturing into her pretend play for a long time. Her excitement at realizing that this toy is special and the kittens can latch was huge and she has been toting the mama and kittens around for weeks now. Fyi, she discovered that you can put an 18" doll's dress on the mama cat, stuff kittens inside, and voila! She can also babywear. This is one talented mama. Quality of the toy is even better than expected. The kitties are made of a durable and very soft material that we've already discovered washes well. The magnets on the mama's belly and in the kittens' mouths are strong and allow a quality latch that a lactation consultant would approve of. The design is adorable and I anticipate this being a favorite toy for a very long time.

This cat is so cute! Well made, soft, sweet mama cat with babies! This was a Christmas gift for my 6 year old son (from a relative) and he loves it! He loves making the baby kitties nurse from their momma and playing with them all. He carries it around everywhere so far and sleeps with it at night. He's an animal lover. I think the kitties are adorable and soft. The toy seems well made and durable. All the magnets work and the kittens attach to the mama cat's "nipples" just fine. I love that it also helps show children how natural nursing- for all mammals. A great toy for any animal or cat lover!

I sent 3 of these to 3 of my 4 yr old grand daughters. Instant hit. Even an 8 yr old big brother thought it was cute. The girls carry them everywhere in their packs. Well made These should last and last. They liked the different colored kittens

I ordered this product for my daughter's second birthday, in combination with the Spanish-English book, "Mama's Milk," by Michael Elsohn Ross, illustrated by Ashley Wolff, and I'm very glad I did. My daughter, who is still nursing, went nuts when she opened her gifts and wanted to play with the Nina Cat and kittens immediately! She begged me to read the book to her right away, too, while she practiced attaching the kittens to the little pink "teats" on the mama. It is an ingenious and adorable creation, as are most toys from Manhattan Toy Company. We got a black kitten, not a gray one as shown, and this one is her favorite of the three. She carries it around with her and cuddles it at night. The cat is soft and huggable like a pillow; its fur is very soft like suede. It is the perfect size for a toddler. The kittens are well-crafted and tiny, about as big as my toddler's hand. They all have their own satin-colored collars, which are sewn on. I like that the mama cat is stuffed with soft plush poly-fill, except for her feet, which contain beads, to give them a more natural "heaviness," and her tail has no stuffing, so it is not stiff. My daughter and I also like the realistic detail of the pink paw pads and the six pink magnetic teats for the kittens to be attached to. This is a very sweet and unique toy for any child who loves baby animals! It is also educational for introducing and promoting breastfeeding as a normal and beneficial way of feeding our children. The Nursing Nina Cat would also be a wonderful toy to feature at WIC Clinics, doctor's offices, hospital waiting rooms and maternity wards, day care centers, libraries, and for the breastfeeding consultant's waiting room. The only things I would change are the type of material the whiskers are made of, and the way the kittens are attached to the mother with tagging plastic things. The whiskers are a type of black, waxy, corded thread which unravels, and sticks straight up instead of lying down against the cheeks like normal whiskers. Instead they look like odd, spidery growths. I'm wondering if I can tame them with a curling iron without damage. But the kittens' whiskers do this, too. As for tagging the kittens to the mother, the fabric was ripped at one of the tag sites on our cat, so there was a small hole. I didn't have the heart to return the whole toy to exchange it, for my daughter had bonded instantly with these cats! And there was no guarantee the next one wouldn't have the same problem. So I got out the needle and thread and mended the hole. It is barely noticeable. Overall, I give it a 9 out of 10, and I wouldn't let the whiskers or tags stop me from purchasing it again for another child in the future. My daughter is thrilled with it. I highly recommend purchasing it in combination with the book, "Mama's Milk" (see my review for that item).

My cat obsessed daughter loves this

Schon die Idee allein ist volle Punktzahl wert. Die Katzenmutter mit ihren Jungen ist so allerliebst und niedlich. Wir haben sie für unsere katzenbegeisterte Tochter zur Einschulung auf die Schultüte gesetzt und die Jungen einzeln in kleinen Schultüten drangehangen. Die Begeisterung war riesig und beim Auspacken, als die Kleine gemerkt hat, sie kann die Jungen an die Mutter "kleben", gab es kein Halten mehr. Begeisterung pur. Die Tiere sind sehr gut verarbeitet, weich und ohne Chemiegeruch. Unsere Tochter gibt sie gar nicht mehr her.

I don't normally write reviews but this is such a lovely toy I felt I had to! I got this for my 18 month old as she is breastfed and loves cats so thought she could relate to it - I wasn't wrong! She absolutely loves this toy more than any she's had. I think it's a great price for a toy that has endless play value. It's a good size for little hands, the kittens are all a good size too and all separate so can be played with alone or as part of the set. The magnets are strong so they 'latch on' really well. It is also a very educational toy - my eldest has become interested in which animals breastfeed, so the topic of mammals and non mammals have come up. All in all it's a wonderful, soft, cute, educational toy that I'm sure we will keep in the family forever! Delivery was faster than expected too.

Très jolie peluche de chatte en train d’alléter ses petits. Les aimants fonctionnent parfaitement avec la mère et entre chatons. Peluche très amusante et douce qui a beaucoup plu

Älskar den mycket!
