My Doll Haven: Anthros

Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

Comparing Anthros

I recently acquired a Coco Tribe Brice on the secondary market, which appeared to be a perfect companion for my Doll Leaves Jax. However, on her arrival and even though they are listed as a similar height (CT Brice is listed as 17cm and DL Jax as 16cm not including his ears), I was quite surprised to see how much more stocky she was compared to Jax, you could say she was quite chubby . . . but then I guess bears are meant to be a little on the cuddly side! :)

She had been listed on DoA as Beauty White, but her skin has yellowed evenly, which gives her a slightly more normal skin colouring. Mind you I am not complaining about this, for if I was to purchase one new she would have been much more expensive than what I paid for her.

She came as shown, with an outfit by Flower Doll Room (which consisted of a white lace dress, pink & white stripe underskirt, two puff sleeves and head wear), her cushion and Coco Tribe box.

Looking for 16cm Anthros

I am a self confessed dreamer and I am lucky to have a hubby who, having an interest in science fiction, understands my penchant towards a world of fantasy. This morning over breakfast we were discussing the direction my dolls were heading in and the story that would encompass them all.

They all live in the Elvin Forest; humans, fairies, elves, sprites & sylphs, dragons, unicorns and anthros too. Not necessarily the same part of the forest, because the Elvin Forest is very diverse and has lots of secret nooks and crannies.

It was during this conversation that I thought it would be good for Jax to have two companions with which to share his home . . . perhaps a squirrel and a mouse or fox, not sure yet, but these do have potential.

My biggest problem is size . . . I really want them to be 16cm tall, the same size as Jax, and most of what's available is either smaller (12cm) or larger (26cm). I did come across this little pig named Patrick, and he could fit in size wise, although I don't know of any pigs that live in a forest.

So if any of my readers know of any anthros that are 16cm tall, please let me know . . . I'll be forever grateful.

EDIT: 9th Jan.

Thank you everyone for all your wonderful contributions, it's been good being able to do a quick whip around to the places you suggested to find just the right little critter.

After looking at them all, checking their sizes etc., it seems PIPOS has the perfect answer for me . . . this sweet little mouse is not quite as tall (14.2cm), but as Hubby said, mice are not as big as piglets and bunnies anyway.
