Abstract
An alarm unit including a normally open switch is embedded in or affixed to an item that can be easily carried by an individual, such as a toy animal or other soft toy or cushion, or which can be worn by the individual, such as a watch. The item can thus be carried by the individual wherever he or she is seated in the home. When the individual senses the presence of an intruder, he or she presses against the portion of the item that includes the alarm unit, thereby to close or actuate the switch and activate an alarm.
