The latest of AI pet companions, Moflin is a fuzzy and featureless robot pet advertised not as a toy, but as a mental health companion. The ball of fluff — a lot like a limbless guinea pig or show-stealing Ghibli creature — wriggles around and makes noises just like common life-like pet toys already in stores.

The AI-powered plushie first debuted at CES in 2021, billed by its developer Vanguard Industries as a pet robot with emotional capabilities, able to intuitively learn from its handlers to offer companionship. Now in partnership with the tech manufacturing giant Casio, the fuzzy pet has finally gone to market.

Moflin owners have to access an app to see their pet's emotional state, which reflects and responds to the human's own mood and care. Each robot also has its own distinct personality, according to the company, but all of them enjoy "snuggling." They even recharge in their own little bed. A quick YouTube search for Moflin shows owners dressing them up in tiny clothes, driving them around in baskets, and tucking them in under fuzzy blankets.
