The science of being held.

Mimi isn't a stuffed animal. She's a body-sized cuddle therapy device disguised as the cutest thing on your bed.

01

Your nervous system can't tell the difference.

Holding a weighted, body-sized object during sleep triggers oxytocin and serotonin release while suppressing cortisol. The same neurochemistry as a real hug โ€” measurable, repeatable, and exactly what an anxious mind needs at 2 AM.

02

Back pains? Try cuddling in bed.

Mimi's body length aligns with your spine, supports your hips, and fills the space between your knees. Studies show improvement in back pain through the use of body pillows.

03

Your skincare routine starts here.

OEKO-TEX certified plush velvet outer cover. Hypoallergenic cluster fiber fill. Zero flame retardants, no formaldehyde, no fiberglass, no off-gassing. What's inside the pillow matters as much as what's on top of it.

A note on why

Mimi started with a simple question.

Why can't medical-grade orthopedic body pillows be cuter? Quality is great ($300!) but does not match the aesthetic at all. We can get long cat plushies on Amazon for $30 but the material is cheap. This means chemicals like PFAS, poor fill quality, and they get flat after a while.

So we obsessed. Over every material, every stitch, every dimension. We sourced an OEKO-TEX certified plush velvet since we have sensitive skin. No fragrances, no chemicals. We designed a face that you'd actually want to wake up next to. The result is Mimi. A quality pillow that hugs back, in a form that is good for your wellness and health.

Common Questions

The essentials.

When will Mimi ship?+

We're currently sold out for the first production batch. EarlyCat reservations get priority access when the next batch opens โ€” expected in 8โ€“12 weeks. SMS subscribers will be notified first.

What's Mimi made of?+

Outer cover is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified plush velvet โ€” soft to the touch, safe for direct skin contact. Inner fill is hypoallergenic polyester cluster fiber: PFAS-free, formaldehyde-free, and free of flame retardants. The cover is removable via concealed zipper and machine washable.

How big is she?+

Mimi is 120cm (48 inches) tip-to-tail. Engineered to align with the average adult torso for side-sleeping. Substantial enough to feel like a real cuddle, light enough to handle daily.

Is she safe for sensitive skin?+

Yes. We chose OEKO-TEX certified materials specifically because customers will be sleeping with the pillow against their face. No flame retardants, no formaldehyde, no fiberglass, no PFAS, no synthetic fragrances. Hypoallergenic from the cover through the fill.

Can Mimi help with anxiety or sleep issues?+

Mimi isn't a medical device โ€” but the science behind weighted, full-body contact and its effects on the parasympathetic nervous system is well documented. People who sleep better with a partner, pet, or weighted blanket tend to respond similarly to Mimi. We make a comfort product. We don't treat clinical conditions.

What's the EarlyCat pricing?+

The first 100 reservations lock in $120 โ€” that's $80 off the $200 MSRP. After that, pricing returns to standard. The reservation just secures your slot โ€” no charge until your batch ships.

What's the return policy?+

Because Mimi ships sealed for hygiene and quality, we can't accept returns once opened. If your reservation hasn't shipped yet, you can cancel any time. We'd rather you wait for the right cuddle companion than rush something you'll send back.
