⚠️ Risk

The product poses a risk of: - choking because the plastic tail can be detached and the rings released. All released parts fully fit into the small parts test cylinder, - strangulation because the length of the string for pulling the toy is 950 mm and, together with the plastic ring, enables loops to be formed posing a risk of strangulation. The product does not comply with the Toys Directive and the relevant European standard EN71.
