Hello, awesome backers! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and were able to get some time off to relax.
My BackerKit set up is still under review from BackerKit :( I do not think they reviewed any projects between Christmas and New Year's. Once I get the ok, I'll be able to send the smoke test and then all surveys. I did send in a support request today to ask that the review be expedited since I've been waiting for two weeks, so hopefully, this project is in the queue and will be cleared soon!
The emails to the survey will come to the email you used in the Kickstarter campaign and will come from BackerKit. Be on the lookout later this week, and hopefully absolutely no later than Monday the 11th. I'm very ready to move forward with manufacturing and fulfillment, too!
All best,
Maury
Surveys delayed but coming soon!

Hello, backers and Happy Holidays!
I wanted to let you know that we are using BackerKit for the surveys and order fulfillment and it's been a bit of a rough go. They changed their interface between the start of the campaign and the finish, and the option we are using for shipping (allowing you to combine any add-ons with your rewards shipping to save you money) is now a feature that is only available if you contact support and request it be added. I've done so, and it's been added, but there are some discrepancies and oddities. I've been going back and forth with BackerKit support and I think we're almost bug-free.
The good news is that you will get great value for shipping because the pins are lightweight and we are able to charge you by weight for the whole order (pledge rewards plus add-ons) vs. a higher-priced form of shipping that BackerKit now wants people to use because it's "easier" and they get more $$.
The other good news: if you're one of the folks whose pledge didn't go through on the Kickstarter, you'll still get the link to the BackerKit and you can re-enter credit card information or use a new form of payment at that time.
Thanks for your patience as we work through getting the BackerKit launched with the most flexibility and economical shipping possible!
Hang in there! 2020 is almost over!
We did it! Thank you for your support! What's next?

Thank you, thank you, backers! We crossed the finish line unlocking cats, snakes, and dogs! I'm excited!
Kickstarter is going to charge your credit cards today for the amount you pledged. If it doesn't go through, they'll try again in 72 hours, and then again in about a week. If there's a problem with your card, just send me a message and we'll work something out. I can charge you for the pins when they ship if you're short on funds now. No need to just cancel your pledge when I know you want these pretty pride pets!
In about a week, you'll receive an email from BackerKit that will be pre-loaded with your pledge amount to "spend" in the store. That is where you will select which pin designs (cat, snake, or dog) and which Pride Flag colors you want. You'll also have the opportunity to add-on other items, such as pronoun pins, other cool pins, stickers, and the promised socks! This is also where you'll enter your shipping address and be charged for shipping directly to you. Shipping and add-on items are charged separately, closer to the time of shipment.
For now, we can all just take a moment to celebrate! I'll be in touch, soon! Thanks again, and spread the love and pride!
Final 24 hours! Dog designs unlocked!

Stay with us! We've lost a few pledges in the past few hours, with folks perhaps not believing we would get to the other stretch goals! We were over the threshold for the puppers, then fell below (by $3) so those are still unlocked!
It's literally 30 people with $10 or 15 people with $20 or 10 people with $30 and birbs are done! It's not impossible! It's totally possible if folks who are watching this campaign choose to back here at the end, or if new folks get excited!
And remember, YOU choose which designs will be produced!
Thanks for your support and let's do this!
First stretch goal unlocked! Let there be sneks! Puppers are in sight!

Hello, backers:
We reached the first stretch goal and the danger noodles are unlocked! Here are some samples of some of the pride flag color schemes! Any color schemes from among the 19 that backers choose will be produced as cats and as any of the pets we unlock.
A selection of snek designs. Others will be produced as backers choose them: genderqueer, genderfluid, omnisexual, demiboy, etc.
We are in sight of the second stretch goal, the doggos! Here are some samples of some flag designs as blepping bulldogs.
We have a lot of people watching the project and waiting to back when they get a reminder in the final 48 hours. If even some of these folks back, it is very possible to unlock the birbs, and maybe even the piggies if we get a nice final surge. Here's what the birbs look like in a few other flag designs.
Thanks for your support so far, and let's bring this project home!
