Fruugo baby sleep-pillow listing removed after suffocation warning

OPSS says a blue-and-white cat pillow marketed for babies aged 0–12 months presents a serious suffocation risk in a sleep space.

What the primary source says

OPSS has issued a safety report for a blue-and-white baby sleep pillow featuring a cartoon cat, sold through Fruugo. The listing identifier is 342637611-750769198 and the product was marketed for babies aged 0–12 months.

The regulator says use in a baby's sleep space presents a serious suffocation risk. The listing is no longer available. This is a safety report and listing removal, not an announced recall. OPSS advises owners to stop using the pillow, keep it away from children and contact the seller for a refund or replacement.

Why it matters

The useful distinction

Removal of a listing does not remove products already in homes; carers need the specific product warning.
