A WA court has given its official seal of approval — under the International Teddy Act of 1908 — for a seven-year-old boy to adopt a “hug” of six teddies.
The young boy wrote to the Family Court of Western Australia asking if he could adopt his teddies.
Much to the boy’s surprise, the court wrote back advising it had approved the adorable adoption.

“In the matter of Mr D, Baby D, Brown Bear, Bamboo, Special Teddy Jnr and Tiny,” the court order reads.
“Before a Teddy in chambers.
“Application having been made under the International Teddy Act 1908 for an adoption order in relation to a hug of teddies known as Mr D, Baby D, Brown Bear, Bamboo, Special Teddy Jnr and Tiny who reside in ... Western Australia.
“It is ordered that the said Mr D, Baby D, Brown Bear, Bamboo, Special Teddy Jnr and Tiny be adopted by (the boy) to be treated lovingly as child and teddies.”
The court document was shared online by a loved one of the boy who said he was not sure how many similar requests the court received but “this seemed to go above & beyond. Thank you.”
It has attracted hundreds of “likes” and dozens of messages.
“That’s so awesome. Gives you renewed faith in humanity,” one person said.
