Project Update: We did it Zodicats!!
Hey everyone!
What an amazing journey these past few weeks were!! Because of you and your outstanding support, I get to bring these pin designs to life and get them to you to enjoy!!
So...
What's next??
Payment processing:
- So now backerkit will take the next few days to collect the funds. You'll get an email on whether your pledge was processed or not. If it wasn't, please get that corrected ASAP please and thank you!
Surveys
- *I'm hoping to get the surveys out mid July, about 2-ish weeks or so after payments are finished processing.
- Please fill this out ASAP. Without the survey completed I canNOT complete your order. I need this information to send you your rewards!!
- Shipping and any other add-ons you may want will be processed at this time. This is a separate charge from the pledge itself.
- Those who have used Pay Over Time will receive their surveys once the balance is paid in full.
*Please note that my July is very full and hectic. So surveys may be later than anticipated.
Pre-Order Store
Pre-Order Store
- I'll be working on getting this open soon for those who missed out on the campaign but still wanted some items.
- backers don't need to visit the store. All the items will be in your survey to choose from and will save you from being charged twice on shipping.
After Surveys timeline
- After the surveys are all completed I can get a count of how much to order of each item.
- I'm hoping to start ordering around mid August.
- With any luck I'll have add-ons to me by September and pins before November. *fingers crossed theres no delays*
- Then I can start shipping them to you!
- Again, timeline can vary depending on delays and manufacturing
UK backers
- Once you've completed the survey, I'll l message you directly via email confirming your rewards and also how much your subtotal will be. Please make sure your BackerKit email is one you have access to and use often.
- I will then set up a custom reserved Etsy listing for you.
- Once I'm ready to ship, I will email you a link to your custom listing for you to purchase. Etsy will collect VAT and shipping costs.
Reminders
- Once orders are locked, about 30 days after the end of the campaign, refunds will no longer be accepted.
- Surveys that are not filled out and completed will forfeit your rewards and will not be eligible for refunds.
Beyond Zodicats
- July is going to be very busy for me, as I'm sure you're tired of me stating. I have back to back conventions and a huge cross country trip to help a friend move that's been in the works for over a year now. So if things are a bit delayed or my responses are absent, I apologize.
- The best way to reach me is by reaching out to my email [email protected].
I will try my best to keep you all updated, though July may be a bit hit and miss.
I sincerely appreciate everyone who has supported this campaign. It has been absolutely mind blowing and I can't wait to send them off to their new homes with you! I hope you look forward to the campaigns I have planned in the future!!
Have a great weekend

Project Update: FINAL STRETCH
Hello hello!!
The weekend flew by and now we only have 3 days left of the campaign!! I'm going to do my best to work on the surveys so they can be sent out in a timely fashion, though I have back to back conventions coming up the first two weekends of July. So I'll also be packing/organizing for those events! (Really all of July is just full of obligations) Please bare with me on that and I'll do my best to keep you all informed!
I can't believe we're at 190 backers for ZODICATS! I'm so happy you all love these little zodiac cats and are supporting them becoming real! Definitely share it with others so they can love them and maybe get their own before times up!
What comes after the campaigns end?
- Once the campaign is over, I'll be sending out Surveys. When that will be, I don't exactly know right now due to all the reasons stated above. I WILL be working on them as much as I can, when I can, to get them out to you as soon as possible.
- Once the surveys are out, you need to fill them out! Without the completed survey I canNOT send you your rewards. This is the stage where I collect all the information I need to get you your rewards!
- Those who are using Pay Over Time; this is my first time using this system. Please bare with me as I learn how to navigate fulfillment. You WILL have to pay in full to receive your rewards.
Remember
- I will be accepting refund requests up to 30 days after the end of the campaign. After 30 days I will not be accepting refunds. Once orders are locked in, there will be no refunds or exchanges given. Should your order be damaged in transit to you, please take photos and contact me at [email protected] to see what can be done.
Future campaigns
I'm hoping to get into Pintopia 2026. I'm trying to make a decision between a few ideas.
I'm also doing 2 other campaigns next year that I'm already planning for as well. One will be pride themed and the other will be a set of mini pins.
I hope you'll look forward to seeing what I come up with!
Thank you all again for being so incredible! My campaign couldn't be possible without you!

Obviously this isn’t something that would be done/could be done before the project ends, however! I still thought it relevant to say that if you ever did pin banners - with the designs you currently have acrylic bookmarks, potentially offering one for each zodiac if you found a Print on Demand sort of place, or honestly whatever cosmic creations strike you in the future - I think they would be a real hit! Adorable and fun enough that I would want to hang it on my wall; technically a neutral, since space goes with everything 👻; and charming on its own without being *so* busy that it detracted from any of the pins that would be pinned on it. Again, no pressure to feel like you have to do it at all, but when I saw the bookmarks, the idea kept sticking in my head and here seemed like the most relevant place to mention it (so anyone else who likes these cosmic cutiepies can weigh in as well, if they wanted to, lol!) Much love to you all! ✨🐈⬛✨

Project Update: STICKER TIME
Good day all!!
I'm back with more art for you!! Excitingly, I finished coloring the sticker and am beyond excited to show it to you! This is, imo, one of my best sticker designs ever! I love it so much and I hope it brings you as much joy as it does me!!
It also seems that everyone is wanting it to be a holographic sticker! I'm all on board with that, though I currently don't know if the whole thing will be holographic or just parts of it. I'll be noodling on that a bit and talking with a manu to see what they're capable of doing or what would be best. Though if you have thoughts I'm always happy to hear them! Be sure to vote in the poll for what you'd like!
CITRUS CON
This weekend will be another busy one for me. House remodeling aside, I'll be 'boothing' at Citrus Con. It's an 18+ online convention and this'll be my 3rd year there. Excitedly my first year with an actual website for it. I'll be doing my best to pop in here and check messages, though my responses may be delayed.
I hope you all have a great weekend!

Project Update: PAWSATIVELY POWERFUL
Good time of day traveler!
Hope you're having a good week so far and that the rest of your week is fantastic! I've been getting ready for a convention this weekend and even though it's online, it's still a lot of work! Regardless, I've been doing a lot of sketching on what I want the freebie sticker for all backers to be and I've finally come up with a design I like!! I hope you'll like the sketch I've done cause I can't wait to finish it!
I'm currently debating on if I wanna make it holographic or not. So let me know in the comments what you think!
I'll be doing my best to finish this sticker design this week and show you. If not this week, it'll certainly be finished by next week before the campaign is over.
