Est. on a whim · Dispatch worldwide

A panda.
To your door.
For an undisclosed
period of time.

You design the panda. We dispatch the panda. It arrives, it settles, and it stays exactly as long as it decides to. No tracking number. No return window. Just a panda, and the quiet thrill of not knowing.

Currently dispatching to 62 countries. The panda chooses the route.

The process

Three steps. One panda.

It works a little like building a bear, except the bear is a panda, the panda is real, and the part where you take it home happens in reverse: it comes to you, on its own schedule.

Build your panda

Choose size, temperament, and a bamboo plan. Add an embroidered name to the certificate. Everything is configured before a single paw leaves the facility.

Giant panda in motion 02 Dispatch

We send it by air

Your panda is reviewed, approved, and dispatched to your residence. We do not share the flight number. The panda prefers a degree of mystery, and so do we.

Order of dispatch

Every panda ships with papers.

A single document accompanies your panda. It records what you chose, what we agreed, and the one thing neither of us can promise.

Panda FAQ

How long will the panda stay? +

Undisclosed. This is the central feature of the service, not an oversight. The not knowing is the point.

Is it a real panda? +

We prefer not to discuss the panda's exact nature before dispatch. What arrives will be panda-shaped, panda-sized, and panda-tempered. Draw your own conclusions on arrival.

What does it eat? +

Bamboo, primarily. Also your patience, the occasional houseplant, and any sense you had of a normal daily routine.

Can I keep it? +

The Indefinite tier exists precisely so that we never have to answer that question out loud.

Is any of this legal? +

Our legal panda is reviewing the matter. It has been reviewing the matter for some time and has not yet returned.

What if it never leaves? +

Then, by the plainest possible definition, you have made a friend.

Request a panda.

Tell us nothing about your schedule. We will tell you nothing about the panda's. Somewhere in the middle, a panda arrives.
