Giveaway & Review: Aurora's "Milly The Pinkest Kitten" Plush Toys [CLOSED]

If you are a fan of Aurora's Yoohoo & Friends plush toys, then you are going to love Milly, one of the softest pinkest kitties around. My children have a pretty extensive collection of stuffed animals, but my daughter has a special affinity towards plush cats and kittens. She loves to cuddle, carry, and sit with them on her lap . . . things our real full grown cats will not allow her to do.

The current collection of Milly plush kitties include ten different styles. We received the 8" Wanna Be Frilly Milly Ballerina and the 8" Pink Kitty With Strawberry Carrier. I was so happy to have received two kittens because our youngest son enjoys playing with plush animals as well.




The "Wanna Be Frilly Milly Ballerina" wears an iridescent crown that is embroidered with a ballet slipper. She also wears a pink tutu, which is removable. The "Pink Kitty With Strawberry Character" comes with a smaller Milly. The carrier is scented like a strawberry dessert, which carries over to Milly after she's sat inside for awhile. The carrier, which has lamé double handles, would make an adorable purse even though it is open on top.


Both Milly kitties are super-soft and look even plusher with their tone on tone tiger stripes. They each have anchored eyes and their pink whiskers are embroidered. Both noses are hard plastic, although the Milly accompanied by the strawberry carrier has a fabric-covered nose.


Our twins spent quite a bit of time comparing the two kitties. I think their favorite things about these plush toys were the tails, the removable tutu, and the fact that one of them is scented. After awhile, our son lost interest, but our daughter still loves carrying both kitties around the house with her, even when she is busy with other activities.


There are many versions of Milly that would be perfect gifts for a birthday, a first ballet recital, or just to put a smile on someone's face. To view the full line of Milly plush toys, visit Shop.AuroraGift.com, where you can order these and other Aurora products. Look for the Aurora brand at gift shops nationwide. You can also find Aurora World on Facebook.
