FurReal Cubby the Curious Bear — Interactive Plush Pet
Cubby is our most advanced interactive bear — a curious, playful companion that responds to your voice, touch, and treats with over 100 sound-and-motion combinations. He blinks, wiggles his ears, moves his head, and makes adorable bear sounds as he reacts to the world around him.
FurReal Cubby the Curious Bear uses sound and motion sensors to create realistic interactions. When you speak to him, he turns his head toward your voice and responds with curious bear sounds. Touch his head or back and he reacts with happy wiggles and purring.
What’s Included with Cubby
Every FurReal Cubby the Curious Bear arrives with everything needed for interactive play except batteries. In the box you’ll find Cubby himself, a plastic baby bottle accessory, a soft berry treat, and a small grooming comb.
The bottle and berry are molded plastic pieces sized for small hands, and the comb features rounded teeth safe for little fingers. All three accessories are designed to trigger Cubby’s sensors when held near his mouth or paws. We’ve also included a quick-start guide with battery installation instructions and care tips.
Caring for Your Interactive Bear
Cubby’s plush exterior can be spot-cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid submerging him in water or placing him in the washing machine, as the internal electronics and motors are not waterproof.
If Cubby becomes unresponsive or his movements seem sluggish, check the battery level first. Low batteries often cause delayed reactions or quieter sounds. When replacing batteries, always use fresh alkaline C cells and ensure correct polarity.

Questions About Cubby the Curious Bear
Cubby requires four C-cell alkaline batteries, which are not included with your purchase. We recommend using fresh, name-brand alkaline batteries for best performance. The battery compartment is located on the underside of the bear and requires a Phillips-head screwdriver to open.
Low-quality or rechargeable batteries may result in quieter sounds or slower movements. Always install batteries with correct polarity as shown in the compartment diagram.
Cubby responds to three types of input: voice, touch, and accessories. Speaking near him triggers head-turning and vocal responses. Petting his head or back activates happy sounds and wiggling. Using the included bottle, berry, or comb near his mouth or paws unlocks unique feeding and grooming animations.
You can combine actions — for example, petting him while offering the berry — to discover new reaction sequences. Each play session can feel different depending on the order and combination of interactions.
No, Cubby should not be machine washed or submerged in water. He contains electronic components and motors that will be damaged by moisture. To clean him, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild detergent and gently spot-clean any soiled areas of his plush fur.
Allow the fur to air-dry completely before turning him back on. For regular maintenance, brush his fur with the included comb to keep it soft and tangle-free.
We recommend FurReal Cubby the Curious Bear for children ages 4 and up. The motorized features and sound effects are designed to be gentle and non-startling, making him suitable for preschool and early elementary-aged kids.
Younger children should be supervised during play to ensure they handle Cubby and the small accessories safely. The accessories are sized appropriately for small hands but should not be mouthed or chewed.
With four fresh C batteries, Cubby typically provides 8 to 12 hours of active playtime. Battery life varies based on how frequently his motorized features are triggered — constant interaction will drain power faster than occasional play.
To extend battery life, turn Cubby off using the power switch on his underside when not in use. Signs that batteries need replacing include quieter sounds, slower movements, or delayed reactions.
The bottle, berry, and comb included with Cubby are designed specifically to trigger his sensors. While we don’t currently sell individual replacement accessories, the original pieces are durable and should last through years of play if cared for properly.
If an accessory is lost, Cubby will still respond to voice and touch. You can also check with our customer service team for options if a piece needs replacing.
No, FurReal Cubby the Curious Bear is completely standalone and does not require an app, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth connection. All interactions happen through built-in sensors that respond to sound, touch, and the included accessories.
This makes Cubby a great screen-free play option that encourages hands-on imaginative play without the need for additional devices or downloads.
