Rough Timeline
Above is a very rough and very generous timeline I've put together for the campaign. Manufacturing usually doesn't take quite that long but i wanted to account for any surprises such as large order volumes or errors. Delivery before the winter holidays should happen so long as there's no major issues.Â

About
Hello and thanks for looking at my first crowdfunding project!
in 2018 I designed my first enamel pins, among them a design of a cat holding a knife that grew in popularity far beyond any expectations i could have ever had.Â
in 2018 I designed my first enamel pins, among them a design of a cat holding a knife that grew in popularity far beyond any expectations i could have ever had.Â
Over the years i've had numerous requests for custom colours and patterns to look like their own cats and expanded to include a number of options. I still get requests for certain customizations that i can't fulfill though. I've been trying out rotating various patterns over the years but it's slow going and I'm not sure what people really want. That's why i decided to try out a crowdfunding campaign as a one-time offer for a large variety of pattern choices!
Some of the designs in this campaign MAY be stocked or have extras in the future on my regular store if they are very popular in surveys and preorders here; however I can't guarantee any particular ones will, so if you see one you really want now is the best time to secure it! I will ONLY be producing pins that are selected during this campaign, so for example if nobody adds a grey ocicat to their order that one won't be made at all, however if only one person does it'll secure their production!
There are also other goodies to be unlocked further in like more keychain colours, long haired breed and stickers, you can check them out below, thanks for looking!
