A sloth stuffed animal is a soft plush shaped like a sloth, with long arms, a calm smiling face and fluffy fur, made for slow, cozy cuddles. At Mister Plush, our sloth plush collection goes from a 5.5 in mini sloth to a 39.4 in blue sloth, in brown, gray, beige and sky blue, plus a sloth pillow and a sloth backpack.

Why are sloths so popular?
Sloths are loved for their calm, smiling faces and their slow, stress-free lifestyle. Real sloths are slow because their bodies are built to save energy: they have one of the lowest metabolic rates among mammals, according to The Sloth Conservation Foundation, and two-toed sloths sleep about 15 hours a day, according to the Smithsonian's National Zoo. A sloth plush is a reminder to slow down and rest. Learn more in our article Why Are Sloths So Slow? The Science of Life in Slow Motion.
Which sloth plush size to choose?
- Under 9 in (Cute Sloth, small Kawaii Sloth): easy to carry, to mail or to add to another gift.
- 11 to 16 in (Sloth Plush Doll, Brown Sloth, Small Sloth, Hanging Sloth): the classic cuddle size for kids and adults.
- 19 in and more (Giant Sloth, Blue Sloth up to 39.4 in): a big, huggable sloth for the bed or the sofa.
