— February 20, 2020 — Lifestyle
The Little Live Scruff-a-Luvs are adorable interactive rescue pets that is designed for children, reacting when they nurture the toy. The plush mystery electronic real rescue pet responds in a life-like manner, with over 30 sounds and interactions. This includes whimpering, shivering, hiccups, heartbeats, feeding sounds, and happy sounds.

Every box comes with a mystery factor, as referenced in the namesake -- kids won't know until they open the box if they rescued a cat or a dog. Once they wash the plush toy, dry it, and groom it, it is revealed -- it comes with an ID tag, a bottle for feeding, an adoption certificate, and a comb. Notably, proceeds from every purchase of the toy goes towards ASPCA.
