Mad Menagerie

Theo Turkey may have plumage, but this turkey's taking no chances. He's knitted himself a bold teal hat, ready for the winter! Theo has over-sized honey feet, a round cocoa tummy and a silky ginger tail. Most impressive of all, this proud turkey has a beautiful suedette caruncle (that's the wobbly bit under his beak). A dazzling gift for happy holidays.

Ricky Rain-frog likes to sit and puzzle out the world. It’s a tricky business! He’s a ponderous, chunky, pea-green chap, and his podginess means he can sing like an opera tenor. He’s squishy, huggable – and very thoughtful indeed, especially in the mornings!

Cizi Snake is a statement-making serpent this festival season. Bright and bold in contrasting forest green and pale yellow fur, Cizi has soft textured scales, embroidered scutes detail, and a sweet, smiling face. Poised ready to strike for a cuddle, Cizi is showing off that suedette forked tongue.

Meet Budgeby Parrot – lifeguard extraordinaire, sun-seeker, and all-round beach bon vivant! Eyes to sea and poised for action, he spends his days scanning the waves from his lookout perch (usually keeping an eye on Peanut’s outrageous water sports).

Allexi Alligator is head chef at Gator’s Gap: a celebrated (and entirely meat-free) diner nestled in the Louisiana marshland. Renowned for his tofu chowder and okra gumbo, Allexi gives classic Southern staples a veggie twist – and takes pride in feeding just about everyone who wanders into his swamp. Even Amuseables Peanut, who, wildly off-route, found himself in need of some sustenance after gator-frogging across the Gap, got a warm Southern welcome. (Allexi didn’t charge him a dime. After all, it’s not often someone cartwheels through the mid-lunch service!)

Mummy Bob is a legendary sweet maker – and his specialty? Halloween. From ghoulishly good sherbet to bon bons, every treat is wrapped up in showstopping packaging. Glow-in-the-dark lettering: check. Boxes bejeweled with googly eyes: check. Cobweb trim: check. His most famous creation – Mallow Mischief – was a runaway success: a fusion of gooey goodness and unexpected flavors (pickled egg and honey, anyone?). Looking for treat (or trick) ideas? Bob’s already got a vision board for next Halloween’s inspo!
