What Soft Toy Can I Give Him That's Safe?

sonnet

Alpha Buck
I'd really like to get Merlin a soft toy to snuggle up to & mother (he's very soppy :)) but I don't want to give him something that he's going to lick or destroy & then make himself poorly with!

What should I look for? Baby safe quality?
What soft toys do you have that the buns have been fine with?
 
I have a suggestion for making a "soft toy" for buns (but would like somebody more "bunny savvy" than I to give it a 'green card' before I suggest it to you 100% if somebody would be so kind...) that would cost you next to nothing and can be "re-made" when needed without "popping to the shops". My suggestion (awaiting 'green card' though!!) is this:

I used to keep Hamsters for many years and as such used to use loo paper (that is designed to dissolve in fluid) as nesting material as a result. This is far safer than the nasty fluffy stuff you can buy as Hamsters can chew bedding at will...SO I was thinking:

A bunch of hay/straw wrapped liberally in loo roll to make it soft and snuggly...a GOOD bun "soft toy" maybe? :?

TP;)

I suspect the rabbits would chew this to bits in no time?
My rabbits love to chew paper.. I haven't really checked what their plushie are made from...most of them are random toys I was given as a child or that I won at fairs. :roll:
