A recent study confirms what cat owners have long known. Our cats understand us when we talk to them, they just don’t give a fu..rball about what we have to say to them.
I have taken my passion for the arts and over past 2 years I have created a series of prints, enamel pins, greetings cards and tote bags based on some of the greatest artists in history; Frida Kahlo, Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso and Vincent van Gogh and combined them with my love for cats creating a series of funny, unique and puntastic enamel pins, this time the art itself and the cat collide.
Heres what the funding is for, to help make two new exclusive pins, these pins are limited edition and only available for a short amount of time. Kickstarter supporters will have access to these before anyone else and at a super great price too.
The enamel pins are inspired by artists Gustav Klimt and Henri Matisse and the theme is the unrequited love from a cat, we all have that one pet that we love so much but were just not too sure the feeling is mutual, I thought a fun way to express this would be for the cats to invade the art this time around.

Once the pins are manufactured all post within the UK will be sent out ROYAL MAIL 1st Class. For international deliveries packages are sent standard international shipping, anything with 10 pins and above will be sent tracked and signed.
This means no tracking numbers will be available with standard shipping.
You can keep upto date with my latest projects and general cat goings on via Instagram.
The only risks for this project would be delays in the manufacturing of the enamel pins themselves.
