ShellieMay is the cute, pink bear created by Minnie Mouse to be a friend for Duffy, The Disney Bear. Duffy felt a little lonely after his voyage around the world with Mickey came to an end, and so he made a wish for another friend by sending a message in a bottle out to sea. Minnie Mouse found out about Duffy's wish, and so created a girl bear for him to befriend. Duffy gave the new pink bear a shell he had found as a gift, and thus the name - and bear - ShellieMay was born!
