I also have a soft toy from when I was a child, Pearl, my stuffed wombat. We had a real wombat called Pearl, who was a rescue animal because her mother was killed by a car. I grew up in the country, so Mum brought home this baby wombat one night when we were kids, and we looked after her. She was free to roam, but she stayed. But then she became a problem because she was so fat and so big. She would sit against the door and we couldn’t get in or out. So Mum and Dad took her to live in a zoo.
