Every clone starts with the essentials. A few quick details help our artists capture the pet you know — not a generic look-alike. Here’s what we’ll ask:
Pet name
So we know exactly who we’re bringing to life.
Species
Dog, cat, horse, bird — if you love it, we can make it.
Breed
Gives our artists the right shape and proportions to start from.
Age
Puppy, adult, or wise old friend — we match their life stage.
Upload your photos
This is where the magic starts. The more our artists can see, the more lifelike your clone will be — so show us your pet from every angle. The best place to begin is with their face.
What to include
We ask for at least three photos. For the closest possible match, try to capture:
- ✓Their face — the best place to start
- ✓Left and right sides
- ✓Tail
- ✓Paws and belly
- ✓Any unique markings or birthmarks
These angles aren’t all required, but each one helps our artists capture more of what makes your pet, them.
Three tips for the best results
Clear and well-lit
Choose photos that are in focus and well-lit so we capture your pet’s true colors. Natural light — near a window or outdoors — works best.
Various angles
Include shots from different sides — face, tail, and paws — so no detail gets missed.
Unique features
Got distinctive markings or a birthmark? A close-up makes sure your clone is as one-of-a-kind as they are.
Add the finishing touches
The little things make it unmistakably them. Choose the details that capture your pet’s personality and favorite pose.
Tail position
Wagging high or resting easy — pick the tail that looks most like them.
Ear position
Perked up, relaxed, or floppy — match how they usually hold their ears.
Mouth position
A happy open smile or calm and closed — choose their signature expression.
Body position
Sitting, standing, or lying down — set the pose you picture on the shelf.
We handcraft your clone
You’ve done your part — now it’s ours. Once you submit your details, our artists get to work building your one-of-a-kind plush entirely by hand.
They’ll match every spot, stripe, and whisker to the photos you shared. And if anything needs clarifying, they’ll reach out before a single stitch is final.
- ✓Built entirely by hand
- ✓Every detail matched to your photos
- ✓We reach out if we have any questions
