Meet Ottie

Ottie was born somewhere in China, as far as we could tell, based on the information printed on the tag permanently sewn into his tail. He traveled overseas by boat or plane and landed in a gift shop in Corpus Christi, Texas, in the mid-1990s. We adopted him for $10, and the little guy has been part of our family ever since.

Ottie's Adventures

Ottie's adventures are our adventures, filtered through the plastic eyes of a tiny stuffed otter with monofilament whiskers. His unique perspective bestows insight into a world beyond hostility and enhances the common-sense thinking one might experience after a reflective fireside conversation.

Leadership

Ottie believes that the leaders of our world should be honest, knowledgeable, and rational thinkers who are brave enough to stand up for everyone's rights and work together to ensure that the needs of the planet, its people, and its animals take precedence over self-serving political agendas. Pretty smart for a critter whose brain is mostly polyester, wouldn't you say?
