We are happy to announce that most of the #FursuitFriday backer rewards have shipped! There's still a few packages we're working on, and you either have received or will receive a tracking number from Backerkit for all your items as they're on their way.
Thank you again for your patience with us as we navigated the issues to get the items ready and shipped. You're the best, and thank you for helping us save baby horses!
Also! Between Backerkit and Indiegogo, Pocari Roo Saves the Kitties has raised $9,905 for Flatbush Cats (an NYC cat sanctuary). Consider donating to help out this great cause: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/pocari-roo-saves-the-kitties/

We are very happy to report that, despite UPS losing our package, we have reprinted the stretch goal items (the stickers, door hangers, and postcards), and we will be putting together the item packs this weekend. Our goal is to ship out the calendars early next week.
Thanks again for your patience and we apologize for the delay.

Hi everyone, we have some good news and bad news to deliver today. The good news is, we received the shirts from the printer and got them packed up and shipped out. Most of you who ordered a shirt should have received the tracking number today.
In addition, we spent several days getting all of the calendars in their envelopes and adding the stretch goal posters and dog tags. Our house is simply stuffed with them at the moment.
The bad news is, unfortunately, it appears that UPS lost our package which contained most of the stretch goal items (stickers, postcards, door hangers).
We set up an inquiry with UPS to see if they could find the package, but no luck so far. We will reorder the items and get them shipped to you as soon as we can.
Our deepest apologies for the unavoidable delay. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to message us, we're happy to help.

Hi everyone! Thanks so much to the 30+ of you who are helping us with the Pocari plush fundraiser already - we are supporting Flatbush cats rescue, consider heading here and getting a plush, pin, shirt or bundle: https://pocariplush.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders
(Also apparently Tinycari got a Bugatti, sweet ride bro)
Next, we have some awesome news - the calendars and posters (finally) arrived from the printer - there's so many - About 700 lbs of calendars!
The rest of the items are ready or in the final stages of production - the dog tags are being made by @catsncameras on Twitter and the first batch should arrive tomorrow at our location:
The tshirts are currently in production by Fields Printwear in Levittown, PA, and should be finshed within 5 days according to their quote.
And finally, the rest of the stretch goal items are ready, we're just working on getting them separated and into bags for you guys. I hope you like stickers, because there's a lot of them xD
Thank you again for your patience and for your awesome support. You're awesome!

Hi everyone! We are so thankful for your support of the charity calendar - and we have good news. The bulk order of calendars is scheduled to be picked up later today, so we'll send pictures once we have them!
Next we have some big news! A tiny roo found his way to Pocari Roo's house, and she adopted him - the little guy has been having so much fun ^.^
First he tried Peeps. You can imagine the sugar rush!
He tried gaming - beat us all in Smash, the little rascal!
Finally, he got tired, and fell asleep with the cat.
You can adopt your own blue roo - and help out a great cause. Our new charity project is called Pocari Roo Saves the Kitties!
This time, we are supporting a charity in NYC that helps care for sick kitties, and find them good, loving homes - Flatbush Cats! Cats don't usually get the medical care they need when living on the street - Flatbush provides a safe, comforting environment for them to get treatment and recover, before being found a happy home.
You can learn more about Flatbush's mission in this short video:
We wanted to help out this great organization, and we thought, why not make an adorable "beanie baby" style plush of Pocari Roo for you to take home? Same as with our last fundraiser, all proceeds after costs (like making the plushies, shipping, etc) go to help Flatbush Cats with their important mission.
With your incredible support of our charity calendar, we wanted to give you, the amazing backers of this project, the first chance to be part of our next charity fundraiser.
The fundraiser is currently in SECRET preorder for the next week - only you and Pocari Roo's patreon supporters are given this special access! Visit the preorder store here and consider adopting a blue roo of your own for charity: https://pocariplush.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders
And it's not just plushies - you can get the following fun rewards:
If you have any questions at all about this new fundraiser, or about the #FursuitFriday charity calendar, please join us on our Discord group #crowdfunding-discussion here: https://discord.me/AwooNews
Thanks so much and have an awesome week!
