For me, it's soft, cute plushies/stuffed animals.

I got this little guy a couple months ago after a procedure I had to have done. I named him Greyson, because he is grey. He also has flat paws with beans in them that i like to squish around.

What about you? What's your favorite comfort object/kind of comfort object?
