The cute cuddly toys originally designed for kids, have found themselves a new adult fan base in the last few years (which we count ourselves in) thanks, in part, to their fun new designs, including the Amuseables collection which sees food, drinks, sports objects, and plants become animate objects with faces and personality. However, with the new designs comes a lot of Jellycats and if you're looking to start your collection but are overwhelmed by the sheer amount of Jellycats there are (it's heavenly at this point) then we've got you covered. The best way we think to decide on something is often through your star sign, after all, if something is catered to your personality type it's going to be a good fit. And so we've sorted through the many Jellycats to recommend below the best Jellycat that most matches your zodiac sign.

Thief steals hundreds of dollars worth of toys by shoving them down her pants
Don't miss out on the headlines from Lifestyle. Followed categories will be added to My News. CCTV footage showed the shocking moment a brazen thief steals around $800 worth of Jellycats by stuffing them down her pants. The huge haul of Jellycat soft toys was taken from St Peter's Garden Centre, south west of Birmingham, England, after a woman stuffed a 'significant amount' of the stock into her trousers and bags. Footage filmed on June 7, 2025, showed a woman helping herself to items as she walked through the store, casually adjusting her pants as she went. Jellycats are uniquely shaped soft toys that are hugely popular right now, thanks to their quirky designs and super-soft material. Over the past year, the brand has experienced significant growth in popularity. William Blake, managing director of St Peter's Garden Centre, said: 'We were deeply disappointed by the incident, where a significant amount of stock – over $800 worth of Jellycat toys – was stolen from our store. 'As an independent, family-run business, every loss impacts not just our shelves but the hardworking team behind the scenes. 'Our staff work tirelessly to create a warm and welcoming environment for all visitors, and it's disheartening when that is taken advantage of. 'We're co-operating fully with local authorities and we'd like to thank our customers for the response to the video and all their continued support.' Jellycat toys are extremely popular right now. Picture: Supplied The woman stole $800 worth of Jellycat toys. Picture: CCTV West Mercia Police said: 'We received a report of theft from St Peter's Garden Centre on June 11. 'Inquiries are ongoing.' In Australia, stores such as David Jones stock Jellycats, with the department store seeing a massive uptick in sales in previous years. 'We've seen strong demand for the brand and an increase in sales in not only their iconic bunny which they are best known for but also more niche/unique styles,' a David Jones spokesperson told last month. 'There has also been a noticeable shift in the consumer who is buying this product, traditionally bought for children we have seen demand from Gen Z thanks to social media driving the trend among this group.' It comes as Aussies have gone wild for the Labubu craze, a furry plushie featuring a bizarre grin and sharp teeth. Designed by Hong Kong-born artist Kasing Lung, the product is sold by Chinese toy company Pop Mart following a collaboration with Lung on his story series book The Monsters, released in 2015. While the Labubu hit the market in Asia in 2019, the toy only took off after Blackpink's Lisa, a popular K-pop singer, was spotted with a $32 keychain-version of the doll attached to her handbag in April 2024. And in just 12 months, the whole world has become hooked, including Aussies.

Jellycats are uniquely shaped soft toys that are hugely popular right now, thanks to their quirky designs and super-soft material. Over the past year, the brand has experienced significant growth in popularity. William Blake, managing director of St Peter's Garden Centre, said: "We were deeply disappointed by the incident, where a significant amount of stock - over £400 worth of Jellycat toys - was stolen from our store. "As an independent, family-run business, every loss impacts not just our shelves but the hard-working team behind the scenes. "Our staff work tirelessly to create a warm and welcoming environment for all visitors, and it's disheartening when that is taken advantage of. "We're co-operating fully with local authorities and we'd like to thank our customers for the response to the video and all their continued support." West Mercia Police said: "We received a report of theft from St Peter's Garden Centre on Wednesday (11 June). "Enquiries are on-going." It comes after a brazen thief used a stolen van to smash through a shop wall and steal thousands of pounds worth of cigarettes and alcohol. Moment brazen thief rides on roof of white van to case out houses over wall - before hopping into garden Shocking footage shows the moment Kayne Palmer, 33, rams into Bestwood Hill Food and Wine in Nottingham using a stolen vehicle in October 2023. Stock and shelves fly across the room as the burglar reverses into the off license at speed. Brickwork continues to crumble around the van as Palmer nabs £8,000 worth of fags and booze. He can be seen on CCTV stuffing thousands of cigarettes into a bag before discovering it has a hole in the bottom. In a panic, Palmer then grabs a shopping basket which he uses to carry the stolen goods. He also swipes a till which he loads into the van before fleeing the scene. Palmer caused thousands of pounds worth of damage to the shop and stole £7,897 of cigarettes and alcohol, as well as £3,239 of cash. The frightened shop owners were upstairs at the time of the ram raid and were woken by the loud bang of the van smashing into the store. They called the police but by the time they got downstairs the crook had gone. Hours before the 5am raid, Palmer broke into a nearby house and stole keys to the work van along with a handbag and bank card. He carried out a 24-hour crime spree less than a month later, successfully breaking into five houses and attempting to force his way into another. He was finally caught when officers spotted him fence-hopping over gardens following an afternoon break-in in Bestwood, Nottingham. Palmer admitted to a series of offences, including eight burglaries, multiple counts of dangerous driving, assault and driving while disqualified. He was jailed for seven years at Nottingham Crown Court last Friday and was banned from driving for five-and-a-half years.
