Here's Why Nervous System Care Matters. A lot.
Your nervous system controls most of what happens in your body. It helps you move, think, feel, and stay healthy. That's why nervous system care is critical.
Controls Your Movements
Every time you walk, talk, or pick something up, your nervous system is working. Keeping it healthy helps your body move easily and safely.
Keeps Your Body Working Automatically
Breathing, your heartbeat, and digestion all happen without you thinking about them. A strong nervous system helps these systems run smoothly.
Supports Learning and Memory
You use your brain to think, learn, and remember things. A healthy nervous system makes it easier to focus and solve problems.
Affects How You Feel
Your nervous system helps you process every emotion. Taking care of it helps you feel more balanced and less reactive to stressors.
Helps Your Body Grow and Heal
Your nervous system plays a big role in how your body changes and repairs itself.
Regulation is Transformative
Stress is part of life. Nervous System regulation completely changes how it affects you
How Percy Regulates Your Nervous System
Percy doesn’t just soothe anxiety or improve sleep—he helps regulate your nervous system for deeper, lasting calm and support.

Percy's Built Differently
Every detail has been considered when it comes to Percy. Right down to where his weights are placed to optimize maximum support.
Double Duty
Percy's made with durability in mind. His body seams includes two rows of stitching for lots and lots of hugs.
It's in the Bag
The unscented clay beads used to add weight to Percy are in dedicated bags in all four paws and his body.
Mimics a Hug
The weight in Percy has been intentionally distributed in five places to ensure when you're holding Percy it feels just like a hug.
Unscented
If you're sensitive to certain scents, that can be a real problem when it comes to finding a weighted stuffed animal. The good news is Percy is completely unscented!

What age is Percy suitable for?
Percy is suitable for ages 0+. However, we ALWAYS recommend Percy is used under adult supervision and with common sense. Common sense includes but is not limited to: Never leaving Percy in a crib with a sleeping baby/toddler or placing Percy on a child that cannot lift Percy on their own.
Percy's intended use is for hugs and snuggles only. Percy should not be thrown at people, other objects, or in the air. This may limit Percy's durability.

Percy is 15 inches tall and 11 inches at his widest point.
How do I heat Percy?
Place dry, room temperature Percy on his back with all paws folded on top of his body, into a clean microwave.
NOTE: If your Percy wears a bow tie, remove this first before heating!
Heat in 15 second bursts and check temperature.
Heat for no more than 90 seconds total. Longer warming times may cause outer fabric to ignite.
Beads may continue warming after being removed from microwave.
Only adults should heat Percy.

Spot clean Percy with a soft cloth, warm water and mild soap. Allow to dry completely before use.
How do I cool Percy?

Percy's weight is made of natural clay beads that are unscented. The other type of filling that's used in Percy to make him so cuddly is called polyfil and found in most stuffed toys.

Percy's interior filling is hypoallergenic.

Our Story
I created For the Cubs because everyone deserves to understand the power of nervous system care—and how it can truly change everything.
Anxiety. ADHD. Burnout. Grief. Sleepless nights. These struggles don’t just touch your life—they take it over. I searched for support that felt human, consistent, and kind. But what I found only made me feel like I wasn’t doing enough.
So I built something different.
For the Cubs offers tools that go deeper—support that speaks to the very core of how you think, feel, and function: your nervous system.
This isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about lasting change that empowers you to live with more peace, clarity, and strength.
— Amy, Founder of For the Cubs
I love my Percy to cuddle and hold. I know this is silly at 77yrs old but he brings a lot of comfort. We all
have good and not so good days. Percy’s hugs are comforting at both times.🩷
I absolutely love Percy. When I first received him, his 3 lbs seemed like he was a little heavy. However I have adjusted to the weight of him. I know Penny has adjustable weights, but decided to keep Percy. I am widowed and live alone. Lost my little dog, looking for comfort cause he always slept with me. Hoping to perhaps getting another dog for us to love. Will not be a dog toy, just friends with Percy!
Percy is super cute and really helped with my sleep at night. Unfortunately, my grandson slept over feel in love with him and he is now living at his house. LOL That is fine with me,so I just order the female version which should be arriving next month.
I adore my Percy!! I have anxiety and problems with sleeping all night. He is so soft and cuddly that I have slept like a baby since I bought him. Thank you 🙏
Everyone who holds our new furry cub baby LOVES him! We renamed him Oakley, and my grandson is so happy! Even my 22 year-old will hold him while watching TV. 🥰
What great photos! Thank you for sharing. We are so glad Oakley is making himself right at home and providing comfort to all who cuddle him!!
