The Animals came in .....

In this case they came in one by one as that is all the Ark could hold. Rufus thought it was because it was a prototype which is true. Mimi did not mind as she like the wee bird on the roof and wasn't all that bothered about the animals.

The animals are also one sided (one ear and mane etc on one side only) and one eyed! Perhaps that is why Mimi was not interested in them!

Elephant and lion measure 14cm high x 18cm across and the giraffe measures 25cm high and 14cm across. The Ark is 30cm high and 34cm at the widest part. The Ark has a lightly padded roof and has been interfaced with very stiff interfacing. Even so when the animals are loaded into the Ark, it bends forward a bit. The problem with a prototype!

All are made with cotton fabric except for the bird which is wool felt.
