Catherine Grunden Sends Us "Fan Mail"
"When my previous plush supplier took a turn for the worse in quality, I was stuck looking for something new. I was so glad to have found Plush in a Rush! I recently placed a small order to check the competition. The quality far surpassed my previous supplier, the price is even better, and the shipping was incredibly fast! I look forward to purchasing even more!"
Catherine shares her plush upgrade story
Catherine Grunden runs a family-owned business called SensiPal in Defiance, Ohio. Inspired by her son Elijah's needs after being diagnosed with High Functioning Autism, she and her family began crafting sensory-friendly items at home.
Working out of a spare bedroom, Catherine assembles each item by hand—ranging from compression sheets and fidget toys to therapy putty and weighted plushies. She recently purchased our 22" Cuddle Quartet and cleverly modified it by adding weighted beads, creating a cozy and adorable alternative to a traditional weighted blanket.
