A bath for your Pooh is highly recommended, for the cashmere to bloom and you can shape him to perfection whilst damp.
We highly recommend our CLOTHES DOCTOR cashmere and wool wash, which is lightly scented with Himalayan Cedarwood and Orange oil, to provide natural moth defence whilst cleaning. Soak him in luke warm water with a dash of the wash for 10-15 minutes, run another clean bath to give him a rinse, press with dry towels to get the most of the moisture out, shape him whilst damp, leave him somewhere airy and dry:

“Today was a Difficult Day,” said Pooh.
There was a pause.
“Do you want to talk about it?” asked Piglet.
“No,” said Pooh after a bit. “No, I don’t think I do.”
“That’s okay,” said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend.
“What are you doing?” asked Pooh.
“Nothing, really,” said Piglet. “Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don’t feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either.
“But goodness,” continued Piglet, “Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you’ve got someone there for you. And I’ll always be here for you, Pooh.”
And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs…he thought that his best friend had never been more right.”
