Cuddle Bug 2.0!!

Hey guys,

I wanted to share a more grounded update about where things are at since its been awhile! The past few months has been pretty wild, between traveling back home across the country for family and helping support other artists through house sitting, I haven’t been in one place for more than a week at a time. Because of that, orders have been going out much slower than I ever intended

I understand how frustrating delays can be, as a two person operation, I’m doing everything I can to keep things moving and plan to move faster! A few backers have reached out asking if they'd be able to pick up their order physically at Furry Weekend Atlanta (FWA) and I'm here to say YES please, if you have an order an you're going to FWA or Anthro Ohio, please reach out and we can discuss pick up options! 

If you're not going to be at these next two cons, don't worry! Orders will still be packed before I leave, now with a thank you gift for the patience you have given me endlessly!

I genuinely want to thank everyone for sticking with me through this, I hope that my Cuddle Bugs will have been worth the wait! Please allow me a few days to catch up on emails and messages, I've seen a few but needed to be home to give everyone a clear answer!

Hello everyone,
First, I want to sincerely apologize for the delay in shipping your plush orders and for not being more transparent when everything first happened. At the time, I was hoping I could get back on top of things quickly and avoid causing concern, but I ultimately fell further behind, and I recognize that clearer communication would have been much better for my situation but it was hard to find words for something so personal but;

Earlier this month, I was unexpectedly hit with a sudden double loss in my family. Both my Grandmother and Aunt passed in the same day, only hours apart. I needed time to step back, regroup, and get my life back into order before I could responsibly resume fulfillment. This was not a decision I took lightly but I needed the time to handle the sudden grief

I’m happy to share that shipping has now begun, though fulfillment will be moving at a slower pace than originally planned since I am now currently balancing a full-time job alongside my existing responsibilities, but they will be moving out weekly!

I will also be actively responding to emails regarding address changes to ensure orders ship to the correct location, I again would like to apologize for not doing so sooner but I'm finally home and able to it do so please make sure any updates are sent as soon as possible!

Please know that your order has not been forgotten, every backer will receive their plush! I’m grateful for the patience and support this community has shown me and 
Thank you again for backing this project and for your understanding.

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to ship orders out before the holidays as I originally hoped, I overestimated how much I’d be able to focus on shipping while preparing for a long road trip home, and some other parts of the business had to take priority first. On top of that, getting all of the stock counted and properly put away took significantly longer than expected due to the heavy snow and my inexperience driving on such icy roads.

I do expect to begin shipping Cuddle Bugs in early January, as soon as I'm home, orders will go out in waves over the following weeks until everything is fulfilled! I’ll continue to post updates so you know exactly where things are at!

In the meantime, I’m also welcoming feedback on the Cuddle Bugs for the few orders that were picked up in person, it was so incredible to meet everyone and to see first hand how excited you guys are for these bugs! If you have any suggestions, concerns, or notice any issues, please feel free to email me directly, this feedback won't delay fulfillment, it’s just to help me improve and make future plush even better!

Thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and continued support, it really means the world to me and I hope that everyone has a Happy Holiday!!

The time has finally arrived! After two long hectic months, every single Cuddle Bug shipment has safely made it home, and all the boxes are officially accounted for! That means it’s time to get things moving!



📦 Address Locking📦

I’ll be locking addresses very soon, so please double check that your shipping information is correct! This helps me finalize counts and make sure your plush goes exactly where it needs to, last thing we need is a lost cuddle bug!

I’ll be at Midwest Furfest this weekend, and yes, I'll be bringing Cuddle Bugs with me to sell!
BUT don’t worry: none of the stock set aside for this project will be touched. Backers come first.

If you’ll be attending and would like to pick up your order in person, I’m happy to arrange that! Just keep in mind that I won’t have the freebie stickers with me, but I can mail those out afterward.

 Fulfillment Timeline

Once I get home from the convention on December 9th, I’ll be jumping straight into fulfillment! There are 250 orders, and I’m handling everything myself, so the process may be a bit slower, especially with the holiday season starting up but that said, I’m going to do my absolute best to get everyone’s plush shipped fast!


!!Customs Info!!
For international backers: I’m not responsible for any customs taxes or fees that may be charged, but if any issues arise, I’m always open to working out refunds where needed just message me!

Thank you all so much for your patience and support! We’re in the final stretch and I can’t wait for everyone to finally receive their Cuddle Bugs! 🐛💚
