This has been my most funded project so far, and I can't thank you all enough for the support of these little floral kitties I love drawing so much 💖

⭐ Back Cat Botanicals reached 553 Backers with $29,663 in total funds raised!!
⭐ You all collectively ordered 2,483 enamel pins, including sets & mini pins!!
⭐ You smashed through every single stretch goal I had within the first few hours of going live!

I am truly humbled and overwhelmed by the response to this project. 😭💙

Now that we have the sappy stuff out of the way... let's talk next steps.

Most pledge payments have processed without issue (thank you!), but there are still a few thousand dollars of failed payments, so this is our first formal reminder to please double-check the cards you used for your pledge!

If your payment details need to be updated, no worries! Backerkit will remind everyone until February 26th to correct any payment issues you have. After that, the funding will be locked and you will no longer be able to pay for your pledge, so please get those corrections in as soon as possible!

I am hard at work on setting up the surveys all backers will be receiving soon! For those unfamiliar with crowdfunding, a survey will be sent out, usually two weeks after the campaign ends, so that backers may select the designs that wanted for their pledges as well as add on any additional items. 

Shipping is charged during the survey phase rather than the campaign phase in order to more accurately account for carrier costs frequently changing as well as allowing a smoother fulfillment process overall.

I am aiming for the surveys to be sent out around February 25th, with a smoke test being sent out to a select few backers ahead of time in order to test the survey and ensure everything is laid out properly. So please keep an eye on your emails!

As always, if you have any questions at all, please feel free to comment or reach out! 

I'll be in touch again soon when payments close and surveys are able to be sent out. 

Cheers, 
Zandra
