Thank you all for your patience! shipping is well underway and should be finishing before the end of the year! The rats have just arrived so I’m finishing up those packages as well. I hope you all had a lovely holiday season and you’ll be getting your packages soon! 

Pins are all on cards! Shipping can finally begin!

Things have been a bit crazy here with the holidays, minor illness, and this large project. but! my best friend sat down with me and we finally got through the rest of the pins (she’s s real one.) I will begin shipping with the largest orders that dont have the rats in them and work my way down to single orders while waiting on the rats to get here. im hoping to have everything out in the next week or two because i have a convention on the 17th and I dont want to be dealing with both if i can (If you will be at con-alt-delete in chicago free to swing by!) 


Also: for kitten fans the baby from the last update is doing great! He is so fiesty!

New news news (if you got the rats please read!)

 Got a few things to discuss with everyone, some good some bad. Sorry for the gap in updates, ive been a bit ill the past 2 weeks and while im on the upswing im still not at 100%. Its getting a bit annoying at this point to be honest, I've got too much to do to be sick!


First: the pins are here! At my house! There are so many of them!

This is the biggest box of pins ive ever got, hands down. (Claws are curtisy of my room mate trying to cheer me up)

Its going to take me a little while to look over all of them and grade them, but the process has begun! (Honestly expect about a month of going over them and getting packages ready. I will update when shipping begins and you will all recieve tracking numbers via backerkit!)


Second: the rat pins will need to be redone. My manu had some covid closures for a while and that must have caused a slip up, as they sent me all the rats with no screen print! They are going to remake them at no cost to me, which is very kind of them. If you ordered a rat, hopefully you wont have to wait much longer as they are already in production and the molds are finished. If you would prefer to recieve one of the pins without the screen print to push your order faster please feel free to reach out and I will accomidate that request.  Honestly there is a chance that by the time I finish grading everything and getting it on their backing cards the rats might be on their way to me, but I cant promise that with the approaching holiday season.

They are still cute but the screen print definitly needed to be done

 Now! On to the cute news. My roommates little sister found this cutie in a box in a parking lot with the top folded. We all know what that means. She knew immediately who to bring him to.  So we're welcoming the little kitty into our family and working to take care of him (at least until we can maybe find him a new home, if that ends up being better for him.) Me, my SO, and my roommate all have experience taking care of such tiny Kittens luckily. While we are guarded about the outcome as he is probably only 2 weeks old (we think), we are hopeful. He is strong and vocal and so so wiggly!

Meet: Soy Sauce!

He currently needs a lot of attention, but look at his little faceee how could we do anything but give him what he wants.

Some good news and another project to check out!

Hey everyone! Our pins are moving swiftly through production. So far the potions, koi, clouds, cats and i believe the croc are all finished! Also: one of my kitties was found! I boo hoo'ed so hard when i found her and was just so excited! Im gonna be a real cat owner for a moment and make you all look at a picture of her. She was really skinny when we found her but shes still as fiesty as ever! 

She insisted on sleeping on me all night and I was not gonna stop her!

In addition to that, a group project between me and a dear friend! We are working together for a new set of pins, and if mushrooms are up your alley you should check it out. 

All kinds of mushroom goodness in there

Little life update and survey
over 1 year ago – Fri, Aug 26, 2022 at 12:08:00 PM

Hey everyone! Ive gotten a few messages regarding the survey and I wanted to let people know I was going to get back to them. Ive had a very rough time the past 3 weeks (stupid bad luck mostly, and my father losing my two cats maybe intentionally) that has stopped me from responding to people. I should be back to that now and will work to get in touch with everyone over the next few days to get everything settled. 

The good news is the pins are chugging right along, I've seen some early production pictures of the croc and bat so those two are approaching completion soon! With any luck things will continue right on schedual. Thank you all as always!
