Hi

Not sure where you would get a Lenny the Lion pump case in the UK but google 'Chatter Chums' and you will see some furry animal mobile phone covers for kids.

I have a Koala Bear one and my Spirt pump just about fits inside it with room for everything including access at bottom for tube to come out of. They are not that expensive and sometimes you can get them on eBay.

thanx will look into it see if i can find them, just asked about lenny the lion as we watched a video with lenny talking about pumps so dylan could identify with him they are on australian website but not the uk one

my daughter has a Lenny Lion pump case and she loves it. We actually use it to keep her BG meter etc in rather than the pump at night.

We were given it by the Medtronic nurse when she did pump training with it so I would contact Medtronic and ask for one.

I'm getting a Medtronic pump in January - will ask if they've got a spare Lenny I could have... I'll pass it on if I manage to get my hands on one. :wink:

Hi there . There is a new company that sell soft toys that have been adapted with a secret pouch in their back to hold most insulin pumps at night. They donate £1.00 to JDRF for every pet sold. http://www.pumppets.com
