Get Ready for Horror Kitties Enamel Pins & Stickers!
by ganglecat
Can we count on your pledge for our upcoming project?
Hi, there! I'm ganglecat! I'm a longtime artist who's finally launching my own line of enamel pins featuring my two favorite things: Halloween and Kitties. This is my second campaign and the second round of funding to unlock the remaining designs that weren't unlocked the first time around. Here's more about the enamel pin project below! Enamel Pins will be hard enamel with a black nickel finish, screen-printing details, double-posted and back-stamped. I do have Add-On items such as: Stickers that will be 3" in a weatherproof vinyl with a Matte finish. T-shirts that are a poly-cotton blend that are super soft to the touch and look great after washing. Here are the pin designs below: Pledge for the $66 Early Bird Special and receive a FREE Michael Meowers T-Shirt! ($25 value) Slots are Limited! VALID THROUGH NOVEMBER 2ND, 2025 WHILE OFFER LASTS! Choose one or the whole collection - when the campaign ends, a survey will be sent to your email that will ask you to choose your reward options. Pledge now, pay later and choose whichever designs that you love most once the campaign has been funded. There are plenty of Early Bird Specials and offers - so that you can take advantage of this early pricing. All rates will increase once everything hits my online shop! www.ganglecat.com
Here's what you can look forward to as a Backer of this project:
Φ Free Sticker! All Backers will receive one free sticker from the Halloween Cats collection.
Φ EARLY BIRD DEALS! All Early Bird Specials will reduce the cost for each enamel pin to be $10 a piece - THE LOWEST THEY WILL EVER BE! Retail price will be $15 once they hit the shop. These are extremely limited, so take advantage of these prices while they last!
Φ NORMAL TIERS! All Normal Tiers at full pricing will include Free Stickers of Your Choice with your pledge. Stickers retail for $5 each, so this is a special offer for you if you've missed the Early Bird pricing. The amount of stickers depends on your enamel pin pledge. If you pledge for 3 pins, you get 3 stickers!
Φ WHOLE COLLECTION! If you purchase all 12 designs, they will be offered at $12 each instead of $15. I am also including a special Horror Fanatic Bundle, if you love the collection that much and want it all.
Φ HORROR FANATIC BUNDLE! For $200, this special bundle includes all 12 enamel pins (1x of each design), a Michael Meowers Meowloween T-Shirt, a Horror Cats Lanyard and 5 Horror Cats Stickers of your choice. These bundles are VERY Limited and this retails normally for $250 - save $50 and get it all!
Stickers of all designs will be available as Add-On Items. They will be a reduced rate of $3, rather than $5. They are 3" weatherproof stickers and will be listed as a "generic" Sticker, so that you may choose your design at the end of the campaign.
Horror Cats Lanyards will also be available as an Add-On item to your pledge. They are 32" in length, printed on both sides and have a black lobster claw clip. They're at a reduced rate of $10, rather than $12. See below what the lanyards will look like: Michael Meowers T-Shirts will be available as an Add-On Item. These are a vintage look and feel, being very soft in a poly-cotton blend. They're at a reduced rate of $20, instead of $25. Available from XS-3XL and shown below:
- What currency are you using? All prices listed are in USD.
- The pins I want are locked. Can I still pledge for them? Yes, you can! Pledging earlier makes it much easier and much more likely to reach the different goals, including pins with higher unlocking points.
- Can I get multiple of the same pin design? Yes! The tiers are only set up for the amount of pins (not specific designs) you want to pledge for. Buyers will be able to select specific pins in the reward survey sent out after the campaign has ended.
- Will these designs be available for purchase after the Kickstarter? Yes! I will be selling them through my online shop. However, the prices have been discounted for their first round of production. Make sure to pledge early to get these discounts!
- I'm in the UK. Am I still able to pledge? I am currently not collecting VAT for buyers in the UK/EU. Any additional taxes, fees, or customs charges will be the responsibility of the buyer, should you choose to pledge to the campaign.
Shipping will be different for each tier, depending on the weight of the packages and depending on the destination. I am not able to collect VAT at this time, so any pledges made run the risk of the backer paying taxes/fees/customs charges upon collection. Below I've outlined estimations for the cost of shipping with each tier. ALL shipping will include tracking!

These mock-ups have been designed to give you a better idea of what the enamel pins will look like in-person. They have been 3D rendered by a professional 3D artist. NO AI WAS USED TO CREATE MOCKUPS OR DESIGNS IN ANY CAPACITY. These were commissioned to represent their look in-person. Support Small Artists! A Big Thanks to Rafael for all of his help with these mockups (credit below)
3D RENDER CREATED BY MAKTIN3D Hiiiii, I'm ganglecat aka CatZy aka Brittany! I'm a longtime artist & graphic designer who's recently entered the area for my own art collection. You can hear me as a cat vlogger on YouTube on The CatZy Show - a cartoon I voice and that I produced. I dabble in various visual mediums, from graphic art to film production to animation. I've spent many years working for various studios, agencies and companies. I decided to take the plunge and create my own brand: ganglecat. During the day, I design websites and manage social media accounts for businesses. At night, I'm ganglecat and spend time drawing and designing my next latest ideas. Horror is my favorite genre of film and Halloween is undoubtedly my favorite time of year. I love to work and be in the creative space - bringing ideas to life is my livelihood. Here's a photo of me, wearing my latest Michael Meowers shirt that you can order from my website www.ganglecat.com My Favorite Horror Films: Evil Dead (I love you, Brucey!), The Thing, The Grudge, Babadook, Halloween, Creepshow, Paranormal Activity, Talk to Me and probably a lot more I'm just not thinking of right meow...
RISKS & CHALLENGES: Backerkit is an all-or-nothing style of funding different projects to bring to life. When you make a pledge, your card will only be charged if the campaign reaches it's goal. If the goal is not met in time, then nothing happens. Once the campaign ends, funds will be collected and the order will be placed to produce the enamel pins. Delays in production may occur, but you will be notified by the creator (me, ganglecat!) of every update along the way. Production time is around 1-2 months, shipping could take up to a month to receive the enamel pin order and then up to another month for packaging and shipping to your home.
This is my second campaign now and I do have experience shipping orders all over the world, so no worries there! You will receive tracking information and email notifications once orders have been sent out.
