WELCOME!

Hi everyone, I'm Kino! I have ran 7 successful Kickstarter campaigns over the years, but today I've come to BackerKit directly to offer you something new and exciting!

In 2022 I launched a campaign called the Witchy Kitty, an enamel pin and apparel collection spanning 8 witchcore cat designs, a dress, and a button-up shirt. This project, The Bat Cat, is a companion piece and continuation to that collection, adding a classic Witchy Kitty pose as a soft and squishy plush as well as 4 Bat Cat enamel pins and a freebie mini pin!

Everyone that pledged within the first 48 hours of the campaign will receive a free vinyl sticker sheet of the bat cat designs!

FREE bat cat sticker sheet for those who pledge in the first 48 hours.

THE PLUSH

Introducing the Bat Cat Plush! Measuring at 12" tall and an impressive ~16" wide, this large boy is ripe for cuddling. Soft minky fabric and extra doughy filling gives this plush its signature squish. Take a look at the closeups of the sample!

THE PINS

The matching enamel pins to this project are the perfect complement to any pin wall or itabag! Let's take a look at each pin design. All pins are hard enamel and gold metal plated with a backstamp and two rubber star backings.

If at any point during the campaign you want to add anything extra to your pledge, you can do so with the add-on feature! When you pledge for any tier, you can choose to add any extras, like an additional pin, or an extra plush, to your pledge.
Edit
UK & EU BACKERS

For those of you in the UK & EU, I unfortunately can't ship there due to VAT laws and the new EU GPSR law requiring all businesses to have an EU legal representative and include trackable safety information with every non-food item. I am a very small business so unfortunately I must comply with this new law.
Edit
SHIPPING

To ensure accurate shipping costs so you're not overpaying or underpaying for shipping, ALL shipping costs will be charged after the campaign ends during the survey! They survey is where you get to choose which pin/plush you want, and it's also where you submit your mailing address to calculate shipping costs. Don't worry, you can always change your mailing address up to the day I start shipping out rewards!

Domestic Shipping Estimates(to the US):
  • One-Four Enamel Pins $5-6
  • One Plush $9-12
  • Two Plush $10-13

International Shipping (outside the US)
  • One Enamel Pin $10-15
  • One plush $15-25
  • Two Plush $16-25

Edit
TIMELINE


After the campaign ends, production for plush takes roughly 30-45 days, after which shipping to me will take another 30-45 days. If everything goes to plan and on schedule, you should receive your plush in May! For enamel pins, production usually takes 30-45 days, but shipping only takes about a week, so enamel pin only backers should receive their pins sometime in April!
