"I've had chronic insomnia since the age of 9, and I am 67. For more than a decade the only sleep that I get is with the help of prescriptions. Even then, it's difficult. Percy has made it so those sleep aids work better almost all of the time. I can't explain it. I'm so glad I took a chance, and ordered him." - JAN H.

You are never too old to give your nervous system the functional comfort it needs to feel calm.
Yes. Anxious feelings, stress and sleeplessness can live in your body as a racing heart, shallow breathing, restlessness, and tension.
Think of Percy as a physical circuit breaker for your nervous system. By providing deep pressure and targeted sensory inputs, it signals safety to your brain, switching off the physical stress response so your heart rate can slow, your mind can quiet, and you can finally feel calm.

"Percy is designed around Dr. Stephen Porges' polyvagal theory: weight, touch, and warmth or cold send direct signals to the nervous system that shift you out of stress response and into rest.
This is why he works so well. It's not magic or imagination; it's neuroscience."

Our story
After becoming a foster parent and diving into nervous system and sensory tool research, it helped me kick my own anxiety and sleepless nights to the curb.
That’s when it hit me: there are no adult-sized sensory tools for our adult-sized stress!
So, I created For the Cubs.
I know it’s hard to believe something so simple could be so effective, which is why we back it with a 60-day guarantee. That's how confident we are it will help.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Percy for adults?
Percy is for adults, including you. 😊
What makes Percy different?
Most comfort products do one thing. Percy does four, because your body needs more than one signal to unwind.
Percy was created by a licensed trauma-informed foster parent who spent 20 years navigating chronic stress, a busy mind, and difficulty sleeping. She learned nervous system regulation through foster care training and built the product she couldn't find anywhere else.
Every element targets a different part of how your body unwinds: deep pressure to shift out of alert mode, cloud-soft fur for immediate tactile calm, gently rustling beads to anchor a racing mind, and a removable heart pouch that heats or cools, so you control the temperature. No heat trap. No night sweats from the thing meant to help you rest.
Why would Percy help me when nothing else has?
Most sleep tools target one thing. A pill targets your chemistry. A weighted blanket targets pressure. A meditation app targets your thoughts. When that one thing doesn't work, you're stuck.
Percy works across four sensory pathways at once: weight, touch, sound, and temperature. That mix provides your nervous system with more signals. That’s why Percy connects with people in ways that single-input solutions can’t.
Is Percy machine washable?
Yes! Simply remove his weighted heart pouch, pop him in the wash bag provided, and wash him on a cold delicate cycle. Tumble dry on low.
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.
