Our Story
LumoPaws began with a simple thought:
sometimes a photo just isn’t enough.
We kept meeting people who would lie in bed at night scrolling through their camera roll, talking to screenshots and old pictures of the pets they love—some still here, some already gone. We wanted to give them something they could really see, touch, and bring home to keep.
So we created LumoPaws, a tiny studio focused on one thing:
high-end, handmade wool-felt pet art.
Not mass-produced toys. Not quick-print products.
But true 3D portraits and sculptures, made one by one from your photos.

What We Make
We specialize in:
• Custom 3D cat and dog head portraits
• Near life-size full-body sculptures
• Small collectible ornaments and plush-style figures, all made from wool felt
Every piece starts with the photos you send us. We study your pet’s markings, fur color, and expressions, then slowly “sculpt” them in wool by hand. Every piece is one of a kind—made as carefully as if it were for our own pet.
We’re a small team, not a factory.
That means we choose to work slowly. We would rather create fewer pieces we’re truly proud of than many that feel just “okay.”

Why We Do This
We know that for most of our customers, this is not “just a product.” It’s a piece that:
• Honors a beloved pet who has passed, or
• Celebrates the furry little troublemaker who’s still very much alive.
Either way, they’re family.
That’s why we obsess over the tiny things—the tilt of an ear, the way the fur sits around the eyes, the little quirks only you would notice. We want you to look at your LumoPaws piece and feel, deep down:
“That’s them.”

Giving Back to Animals in Need
LumoPaws exists because we love animals—not just the ones who already have a couch and a name.
With every order, we set aside a small portion to support local rescue groups that help stray cats and dogs—providing food, vet care, and a chance at a new home. As our studio grows, we plan to increase our donations and work more closely with shelters and rescue organizations.
When you order from LumoPaws, you’re not only doing something special for your pet—you’re also helping give another animal a second chance.

Looking Ahead
We’re committed to staying in this niche and doing it as well as we possibly can.
Our goal is to keep improving our techniques, create more original wool-felt designs, and grow LumoPaws into a studio that pet parents around the world can trust for many years to come.
If you’ve read this far—thank you.
Whether you’re here to remember a pet who never really left your heart, or to celebrate the little one currently hogging your pillow, we’re honored to be a small part of your story.
