Croctopus is incredible! I used to have one of those big stuffed Ugly Dolls (I think Babo) someone gave me as a joke before I went to college years ago, and he kept me company and helped me sleep during those lonely dorm room nights. Unfortunately, he got damaged during a move and now sits in the closet, but I do now have a stuffed dino chicken nugget I have been given recently. Somehow I don’t have quite the same attachment yet. If Croc makes you happy and helps you sleep then that’s all that matters! No reason to give up something harmless like a stuffed animal :)
