Why Gentle Care Matters for Your Sawyer Clip
Your 3.5-inch Sawyer the Squirrel Squishmallows plush clip is made with ultrasoft materials, which need a light touch to stay fluffy and clip-ready. Because it's designed to ride on backpacks, car keys, or water tumblers, it will pick up dust and light grime over time. The supplied information confirms the plush uses ultrasoft fabric but does not include specific washing instructions. That means the safest approach is gentle spot-cleaning—no machine washing, no harsh scrubbing.
How to Clean Your Sawyer Plush Clip Safely
Start with the least invasive method and only move to deeper cleaning if needed.
- Dust and surface dirt: Use a soft, dry cloth or a lint roller to gently lift dust and loose debris from the plush surface. This is often enough for everyday grime.
- Spot cleaning a small stain: Dampen a clean cloth with cool water and a tiny drop of mild soap (like dish soap or baby shampoo). Blot the stained area—do not rub or saturate the fabric. Rinse the cloth with plain water and blot again to remove soap residue.
- Drying: Press the damp area with a dry towel to absorb moisture, then let the plush air-dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight. The clip attachment makes it easy to hang dry from a hook or hanger.
What to Avoid
Without manufacturer washing instructions, machine washing or submerging the plush in water could damage the ultrasoft fabric or the clip mechanism. Avoid bleach, fabric softener, and high-heat drying. The clip hardware is not sealed against water, so keep the metal parts dry to prevent rust.

Keeping Your Clip Plush Soft Over Time
To minimize cleaning frequency, avoid placing the clip in pockets with loose change or sharp objects. A quick weekly dusting with a lint roller helps prevent buildup. If the plush gets wet from rain or spills, blot it dry promptly and let it air-dry fully before clipping it back on. With this care, your Sawyer the Squirrel clip will stay soft and ready for gameday or everyday use.
