The TY Beanie Baby AVA the Black & White Cat is a plush collectible toy from TY’s Beanie Babies line, featuring a small black and white cat design that stands about 6 inches tall — a classic size for Beanie Babies collectibles.

Key Features

Design & Appearance

• Color & Style: AVA is a black cat with a white belly and face, giving her a tuxedo‑style look that’s very appealing to cat lovers and collectors.

• Eyes: She has large, glittery green button eyes, a signature feature that adds sparkle and personality.

• Facial Details: Includes a pink plastic nose and an embroidered pink smiling mouth, along with peach‑colored inner ears.

Size & Build

• Approx. Size: Around 6 inches tall, making AVA a regular‑sized Beanie Baby — compact and easy to display or carry in a small bag.

• Bean‑Filled Body: Like all Beanie Babies, her body is filled with small pellets (“beans”), giving her a flexible, slightly weighted feel that’s characteristic of this TY line.

Tags & Collectibility

• Tags: Official versions typically include the TY heart‑shaped swing tag with AVA’s name, birthday, and a short poem, plus a tush tag sewn into the seam. These tags are important for collectors and can affect value.

• Birthday: AVA’s official birthday printed on the swing tag is December 15.

• Poem: Her tag includes a playful poem:
  “I like to jump and skip and hop
  And in the mud I like to flop!” — adding charm and character to the plush.

Who It’s For

• Collectors: A classic Beanie Baby that fits well in collections, especially for fans of cats or TY plush toys.

• Kids & Play: Soft and small enough for gentle play and snuggling (age recommendations typically 3 + years due to small parts like buttons and tags).

• Gift Idea: A nice gift for birthdays, holidays, or anyone who loves cats and plush toys.
