Same here! I'm a grown person, but as I type this, I'm looking around my office and see
1 stuffed Vermont Teddy Bear
1 Velveteen Rabbit
1 Owl named 'Mr Who"
2 Stuffed penguins
1 Eeyor the Donkey
1 Garfield the cat
1 Home made stuffed calico print cat, compliments of mom
1 stuffed black and white cat
1 stuffed rat toy, wearing a suit
1 Tigger
1 Koala bear wearing a little white T-shirt.....
oh, and a tiny stuffed Christmas bear in my bookshelf.

My mom let me have a lot of stuffed animals as a youngster....I still have them....and more---when I was little I always wanted an indoor kitty, but mom wouldn't let me bring them inside because my sister had terrible allergies - the stuffed animals really helped
