10 toes, 10 fingers, one head. You know the drill – that sort of thing doesn’t sell in the circus. (rubs hands together – ya that’s evil.)
From the listing:
Are you a fan of creepy circuses and freaky carnivals?
Do you love babies?If you answered yes to both of those questions, this product is for you. Originally created as a prop for a Halloween party with a horror carnival theme, these cotton candy babies make a great addition to any curio room.
Hanging by a multi-colored string, these dolls were painted a deep red and surrounded by painted cotton to give the effect of a tasty cotton candy baby just ready to be eaten by the unsuspecting circus patron. Hang them, place them in a bowl, or use them as a great centerpiece – these babies will be a conversation starter no matter where they’re displayed.
We have five of these products. Two have blue cotton and three have pink cotton. Comes in a bag with string attached, ready to be hung by thumbtack (not included).
I’m going to assume these aren’t edible. Given the paint and all. If you’re having a Halloween party* this year, these would be perfect!
Thanks Adam! <— that blog is often NSFW/kids, but is one of my favorite blogs. You’d best have a good sick sense of humour if you go over there!

*not recommended as a baby shower gift. Pregnant women have enough nightmares. I once dreamed I was breastfeeding a cat. My nipples curl into my boobs every time I think about it. Cat teeth are quite unforgiving, I would imagine. Meow!

Thanks, guys! I recommend the cotton candy babies as Christmas Tree ornaments, centerpieces, wall art, throw pillows, coat hanger cozies, and front door wreaths.

We made them for the Halloween party last year – for the carnival theme. They’re mine already.

My cat tried to suckle on me, and it actually wasn’t painful; there is a space between a cat’s long front teeth. He was quite disappointed when nothing came out, though.

I didn’t do it! I was just moisturizing after a bath, and he crawled onto my chest. purring. I thought he was being sweet, but he was just trying to suckle. I thought it was funny as hell, because he had weaned months before.

I had a kitten who tried to do the same thing one time – I was like NOOOO CAT. He didn’t know any better, poor little dude was just hungry.
August 10th, 2009 at 6:22 am

And way off topic… emilykwg…. ?!? blink, blink. ?!? Wasn’t that painful?…You let him try? blink…
