Our innovative Warm Whiskers Body Pillows combine traditional, plush designs with our special blend of buckwheat and lavender to create the ultimate heatable and freezable plush animals. A comforting gift for one and all, the Body Pillow will bring you back to your childhood when you could snuggle up with your favorite stuffed animal, but this time, it gives back more than just love. Designed as neck rolls and multi-functional pillows, our Body Pillow products are a favorite amongst children, yet designed with adults in mind. Adorable and cuddly, the warmth and comfort these animals provide also make the buckwheat pillows our best sleep aids. They are particularly effective in targeting joints, cramps, and strains. After placing the body pillow in the microwave for 1 1/2 minutes to 2 minutes, heat remains for approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours, the heat retention varies depending on size.
