Question 1

We are contemplating purchasing for a Memory Care clinical center. how do you recommend cleaning between use by more than one person?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your question about the TwiddleSport. I recommend first removing all fidgets, including the interior orbit ball, from the Twiddle. Place the Twiddle in a lingerie bag and throw it the washer and dryer with the rest of the laundry; it will emerge fresh and fluffy. The fidgets also are washable and dryer-friendly; however, I prefer to wash them separately in warm soapy water, then rinse them in the sink. Quick and easy! Hope this helps.

Question 2

Which would be better for a 93 year old mother with advanced dementia who gets bored? She loves to hold a doll or a stuffed monkey. Dog or Sport?

Accepted Answer

Hi James, Based on the situation you've described and the comfort objects she prefers, I would recommend the TwiddlePup, rather than the Sport. If she is calmed by repetitive tactile stimulation, I would suggest you consider our Twiddle Classic. We've received great feedback re: those living with dementia finding the fringe embellishments to be of interest and comfort. Happy Holidays!

Question 3

Has anyone tried this with someone with sensory integration dysfunction???

Accepted Answer

I have not.  I bought it for my Mom, who has severe dementia.  It calms her at times and keeps her hands warm.  There are times when she thinks it is a real pup and other times when she doesn't seem to respond to it one way or another - but - when she's anxious, having her put her hands in it seems to calm her - and - she's braided the attached ribbons - that seems to keep her hands busy.  The pup might work for someone with sensory integration dysfunction.  Can't see that it would hurt - but definitely check out the attachments for safety issues.  It's been very helpful for an elderly person with dementia and does not so much of a child's toy look.

Question 4

What is the measurement around the neck (for a collar)?

Accepted Answer

What a charming idea! The neck circumference is 7"; however, in case the collar needs to be stretched over the TwiddleCat's head, you should know his head is 14" at the widest point. Thank you for your purchase and kind regards, Vicki
