Princess Charlotte's Cuddly Toy Sells Out In Various Outlets After Royal Photo Release

Princess Charlotte's photos of her playing with her soft cuddly toy 'Jellycat's Fuddlewuddles' immediately created a hype, with the toy she's pictured with being sold out in various outlets in just a matter of days.

The six-month-old princess, the second child of Prince William and Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, was pictured playing with a stuffed puppy, one of Jellycat's Fuddlewuddles toy with super soft fur and is suitable for children of all ages. The photo was taken by the Duchess herself.

This and other photos were released to the media and surprisingly -- or unsurprisingly -- the toy pictured with the princess caused a stir, with everyone who is a fan of the Royal family wanting to have one just like it. The stuffed toy was identified as a Jellycat Fuddlewuddle, an article on Huffington Post UK reported.

The Fuddlewuddle toy can be bought in different animal forms: the elephant, puppy, donkey, lion, bunny, or cat.

Founders of the abovementioned toy company, brothers William and Thomas Gatacre, confirmed the news. "Yes, that's [our] Fuddlewuddle Puppy. The pictures look lovely," William Gatacre said.

The toy has gone out of stock on John Lewis, which retails at £17. The National Gallery Company, who reportedly were fast enough to inform their customers that they have the toy, has also sold out of the puppy. Amazon's all sold out as well.

Based from the listing in Jellycat.com, the Fuddlewuddle soft puppy toy was described as "adorable, loveable, squidgeable, irresistibly silky-soft and huggable: Fuddlewuddle Puppy, it's undoubtably, completely and utterly un-put downable!"

For those who wish to wash the toy before giving to their kids, Jellycat also stated some precautions on its safety and washing. It says, "Tested against and passed ASTM requirements, suitable from birth. Huge and Large sizes - please do not leave in a cot/crib. Made from 100 percent polyester. Hand wash only; do not tumble dry, dry clean or iron. Not recommended to clean in a washing machine. Check all labels upon arrival of purchase."
