“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."

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.

Simple line drawing of a person stretching with arms raised.

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.

Outline of a head with a gear and circular arrow inside.

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.

People Love Percy

"A weighted blanket feels like it's strangling me, and it's too heavy to kick off! Percy has almost immediately given me better sleep, calming stresses."

Sandy

"Percy has a great weight to him. I’m an adult but suffer with extreme anxiety. I hold him or simply rub his ear and it ends what was the beginning of a panic attack.❤️"

Sarah

"I knew they'd be cute, but are above and beyond in person. And the weight is PERFECT on them. Highly recommend for any age!"

Je

"Haven't tried the warming function yet, but I bought this for me (40F, autistic). It is amazing. Just sitting at my computer holding it on my lap helps so much with my anxiety"

Mimics 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!

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

Adorable with a purpose!

I'm a 70-year old grandma in the Texas Hill Country, still with the evening hot flashes. A weighted blanket feels like it's strangling me, and it's too heavy to kick off! Percy has almost immediately given me better sleep, calming stresses. I can't wait to give one to a young niece who has a host of medical issues that cause her anxiety! Thanks for this adorable friend who looks absolutely fantastic when he's not in use. WELL DONE.

Thank you for this lovely review!! We are so thrilled to hear that Percy is helping you sleep better and keeping you calm during stressful days!
