Hello and welcome, curious minds and fellow cat lovers!
We’re so excited to introduce you to Science is Pawsible — a playful enamel pin collection where science meets whiskers!
It all began with a simple question: what if our favorite furry friends got their paws on science? The result? A group of adorable kitty scientists, each exploring a different field — from chemistry and physics to space and tech, all with a spark of curiosity and a whole lot of charm.
Whether you're here for the science, the cats, or just the cuteness, we’re thrilled to have you join this little adventure. Thank you for being part of this project — your support makes it all pawsible!
Hard enamel pins (lapel pins/brooch) are decorative art that can be worn or otherwise displayed. They have raised metal lines forming the 'line art' and the recessed sections between the lines are filled with colorful hard enamel. The piece is then polished smoothly so it can be at the same level as the metal lines.

Please note that there will be a $5 shipping fee for USA backers. For other countries, shipping will be calculated with an estimated cost of $8. This fee will be collected after the successful completion of the project. Due to the recent increase in tariffs for items shipped from India to the USA, we will work to absorb part of the cost so USA backers end up paying less than $5. This ensures secure and timely delivery of your rewards once the campaign concludes, while helping us provide the best shipping experience possible despite the current tariff situation.
Who to Contact: For support related to tracking, missing packages, damaged items, or questions about your pledge or rewards, please contact [email protected].
Refund Policy: We offer full refunds with no questions asked for any pledges, as long as the request is submitted within 14 days after the campaign ends, from September 9 to September 23, 2025. After this period, no refunds will be issued for any reason. If you do not complete your survey or fail to pay the required shipping costs, your pledge will be treated as a donation to the project, and no rewards will be sent.
Shipping and Taxes: Shipping costs will be collected separately through BackerKit’s pledge manager, approximately two weeks after the campaign ends. Shipping is not included in your current pledge. You will be asked to confirm your address and pay for shipping when you complete your survey. All items will be shipped from India. You are responsible for any VAT, IOSS, customs duties, or local import taxes that apply in your country. If you do not pay the shipping fee or applicable taxes, your rewards will not be shipped, and your pledge will not be refunded. This policy has been clearly stated since the beginning of the campaign.
Fulfillment and Survey Deadline: Once surveys are sent, you will have 21 days to complete yours. A reminder will be sent 48 hours before responses are locked.
If you do not complete your survey within that time, your rewards will be forfeited and your pledge will be treated as a donation to the project. As mentioned in the refund policy, no refunds will be issued after this point for uncompleted surveys. Details about fulfillment and deadlines will be shared in campaign updates as we move into the shipping phase.
Damaged, Missing, or Lost Items: You will have 30 days after receiving your package to report any damaged or missing items to [email protected]. For lost or misdelivered packages, please contact us within 60 days from the shipping date for all orders.
Backer Responsibility: Backers are responsible for providing a valid and up-to-date email address on BackerKit and reading all project updates, which will include important information and deadlines. Tracking information will be emailed to the address you provide. It is your responsibility to follow up with the carrier if any issues arise with delivery.
What It Means to Back a Project: Backing this campaign is a pledge of support for a creative project. It is not a direct purchase. We are dedicated to doing everything we can to fulfill the rewards as planned, and we’ve successfully completed eight previous campaigns. Your support plays a vital role in bringing this project to life.
Note on USA Tariffs: Since these pins are made in India and the U.S. has recently removed the de minimis exemption, there’s a small chance your package could be charged a tariff on arrival. I’m not sure if they’ll apply it to small, low-value parcels like ours, but just in case — any customs, duties, or taxes would be your responsibility. To help, I’ll try to absorb some of that potential cost by keeping the shipping fee lower than usual. Hopefully it won’t be an issue, but I wanted to give you a heads-up!
From the bottom of our science-loving hearts (and our cats' tiny paws), thank you for joining us on this adorable journey! Your support brings these curious kitties to life and helps us share a little more wonder—and whiskers— with the world.
Whether you backed one pin or the full set, you’re now part of the Science is Pawsible family, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Here's to cute cats, clever ideas, and a community that makes dreams come true. 💛🐾
