MANILA, April 6 (Reuters) - Philippines toy maker David Tan is flooded with orders from grieving pet owners who want to memorialise their dogs, cats, hamsters and rabbits with stuffed toys or 'plushies'. The process is different from taxidermy, which preserves the body of the animal, said Tan, owner of Pampanga Teddy Bear Factory. This is actually one hundred percent, genuinely a stuffed toy," he said. "Although his ashes are here, and his memories are here, it's so much better to see something that really resembles him," Lazarte said.
