FOREST COMPANION SERIES

- Stability: Engineered with a flat, weighted base to sit securely on any Chaban (tea tray).
Nourishment & Care Guide
To cultivate the perfect character in your Sweet Fox:
- The Ritual: Pour hot tea or the initial "wash" directly over the fox. The steam and oils will deepen the natural earthy tones of the purple clay.
- Grooming: Use a tea brush to spread the infusion evenly across the fur textures for uniform patina development.
- Cleaning: Rinse with clear, warm water only. Avoid soaps or detergents, as the porous Zisha clay will absorb chemical scents.
