The oldest manufacturer of soft toys in America, GUND was one of the first ever companies to produce a teddy bear in the early 1900s. Pusheen was created by artists Clare Belton and Andrew Duff as a character in their webcomic “Everyday Cute”, which was launched in May 2010. Only a few of the older comics were archived, however mentions of additional posts can be found on the site’s Facebook page and Twitter account. The comics revolved around the lives of the characters modeled after Belton, Duff, their yellow dog named Carmen and Pusheen, a chubby gray tabby cat based on Belton’s childhood cat. Her name stems from the Irish word “puisin” (“kitten” in English), which was given to the cat after she was adopted from a shelter.
