Silly old bear...
―Christopher Robin; affectionately referring to Winnie the Pooh

Winnie the Pooh (or Pooh for short) is an anthropomorphic, honey-loving teddy bear belonging to Christopher Robin that first appeared in Disney's 1966 short Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree.

Pooh is based on the character of the same name from the book of the same name, written by A.A. Milne.

Background[]

Pooh Bear resides in the Hundred Acre Wood, an imaginative world inhabited by anthropomorphic stuffed toys and animals that Christopher Robin frequents. Pooh is stuffed with fluff, and is therefore impervious to pain. Due to his obesity, his seams rip open on occasion, but Pooh has become so accustomed to this that he can tie it back together in seconds. Pooh's tree house—which is under the name Sanders—is mostly filled with jars and jars of honey, which he harvests from beehives throughout the day.

At the jingle of his "Pooh-koo clock", Pooh typically starts his mornings with his "stoutness exercise", which is an ironic attempt to gain weight, rather than lose it. When not collecting honey or pondering about nothing in his Thoughtful Spot, Pooh spends his day with his friends, the most significant of which being Christopher Robin, with whom he shares a special bond.
