You Try to Think Your Way to Calm
You tell yourself you're safe
You can logically know that, but your body doesn't understand logic and needs more to know it's safe.
You try to think it away
The tight chest, the upset stomach, the headaches. Thinking didn't put them there. It can't shift them either.
You try harder to relax
Somehow three hours of laying on the sofa pass and you don't feel any more rested.
Percy Calms What Thoughts Can't Reach
Percy supports your body
Gentle weight gives your body signals it's safe to slow down and rest.
No routines. No effort.
You don’t have to breathe perfectly. You don’t have to think differently. You don’t have to try at all. Just hug Percy and let him do the work.
The calm actually sticks beyond the moment
The more your body experiences Percy's frequent signals of gentle pressure, the more your body will feel consistently calm over time.

FAQ
Is the ship date really in May?
That's the estimated ship date, but he may come in sooner! We take extra time in our production process to ensure Percy is perfect for you. As soon as he's in stock, he'll be shipped right out. We promise it will be worth the wait.
Why is Percy more expensive than other weighted plushies?
Percy was designed by our founder, a licensed trauma-informed foster parent who struggled with anxiety, burnout, and insomnia herself.
She spent years on R&D and small batch production to create the best weighted comfort bear available.
Percy has adjustable weight, thermal therapy (heat or cool), and 5 pounds of deep pressure designed for adults. Double stitching is used on the seams for a lifetime of hugs and premium quality materials are used from the softest fur to the sturdiest thread.
Your purchase also helps kids in foster care, so you're giving to yourself and others who need it when you shop with us.

Can I travel with Percy?
Yes. Percy fits in a carry-on bag and is TSA-friendly. The removable pouch makes packing easier. Customers regularly fly with Percy, take him on road trips, and bring him to stressful situations like family visits, work trips, or medical appointments. His biggest trip so far has been across Europe.
Why would Percy help me when nothing else has?
Percy provides something specific: deep pressure stimulation.
Research published in the American Journal of Occupational Therapy shows consistent, gentle pressure activates your parasympathetic nervous system, which naturally reduces cortisol and increases serotonin production.
This is a physiological response your body is designed to have. Most people feel calmer within 10-15 minutes of first use. After a week of consistent, repeated daily use, people start to see changes in how they feel.
Percy works alongside other supports and therapies. Always consult your doctor before making any changes to treatment. This information is not intended to diagnose or treat any medical conditions.
How long until I feel a difference?
Most people feel calmer within 10 minutes of first use.
The lasting changes happen with consistent daily use. Hold Percy whenever you're seated and after 1-2 weeks, you'll likely fall asleep faster and wake less often. After 3-4 weeks, you may start to become less reactive to everyday stress and recover from hard moments more quickly. One hug feels good. Consistent use can change your baseline response to stress.
What if Percy doesn't work for me?
You have 60 nights to try Percy. If he's not the right fit, return him for free for refund. You can read the full return policy here.

From the expert
“Mental wellbeing doesn’t begin and end in a therapist’s office. It’s something we build — moment by moment — in the real world, all day, every day. With over a decade of experience supporting individuals and families navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, and autism, I’ve seen firsthand how crucial it is to have consistent, accessible support beyond the clinical setting.
Percy offers just that — calming comfort for people managing life’s challenges.”
Percy's used daily and loved deeply by thousands.

The importance of support
Anxious? Exhausted? Can't sleep?
Chronic or major stressors can have long-term effects if you're not giving your body daily feedback that it's safe to rest.
According to research* and my own experience with anxiety and as a foster parent, what really helps is steady physical input the body can respond to.
That’s why I built For the Cubs.
We make beautiful, comforting self-support tools that gives your body the input it needs to know its safe to rest: weight, sound, scent.
And when you shop with us, you'll help kids in foster care as part of our giveback program.
