Happy New Year!
We hope you had an awesome holiday and New Years ... and played lots of games with family and friends!
We're still on track to deliver the product to you! Last week we confirmed that all of the Pets Gone Shady games, expansion packs and Octopuses are now on the way (on a boat) to the Long Beach, CA port. The Throw Octopuses will arrive on January 17 and the games and expansion packs will arrive on January 25. It takes about 7 days to receive the product once it checks into port. This means will be start shipping to all of our backers during the 1st week of February! That's good news since we were originally projecting to ship during the last week of January.
Because we're just over 3 weeks out, we will be charging your credit cards for the shipping and any add-ons that you selected via our pledge manager, Backerkit. If there's any issues, we will contact you to resolve.
Tee Shirts
Over the holidays, we made some really cool T-shirts via Teespring. You can now get these designs in any size with multiple color options for only $19.99.https://shadypets.com/clothing/
New stuff!
We're working on some new Shady Throw Pets! Check out these prototypes that we hope to have available for purchase by March or April. We're still making some adjustments. The idea is that besides the Throw Octopus, you can now throw these Shady Pets at your opponents when you play the 'Facial Card' too! We especially like the 'Hangry Hamster' plushie! Throw Hamster!!
Please let us know if you have any questions or you need any assistance with anything!
Thank you again!

Hello Pets Gone Shady Backers,
First off, Happy Holidays! We hope you all have finished your last minute shopping and now enjoying the holiday spirit and possibly the winter wonderland if you live in the north!
Production Completes Next Week!
Our manufacturer in China will complete production of the games and expansion packs on December 23 and will ship the product to us (in US) by end of next week. This means we will receive the product around January 25, 2021. As soon as we receive it, we will start shipping to our backers. If all goes to plan, you'll receive your pledge level and any add-ons between Jan 28 - Feb 10.
Pledge Manager now 92%!
92% of all of our backers have now completed the pledge manager! Most of you are in that bunch so thank you very much. If you have yet to complete the pledge manager (required to complete shipping information) and you did not receive the link to the pledge manager by email (undelivered, deleted, sorted as spam) please email us at [email protected] and we will send you your pledge manager link.
Baby Throw Octopus ...
One of the new items, the Baby Throw Octopus, was shipped via AIR (because of the weight it was cheaper to send by AIR than SEA). Please see our new logo and some pics from our first photo shoot (Throw Octopus and Baby Throw Octopus.)
Please let us know if you have any questions or you need any assistance with anything!

Hello Pets Gone Shady Backers,
Just a quick update on our progress ...
88% of all of our backers have completed the pledge manager! Thank you very much. If you have yet to complete the pledge manager (required to complete shipping information) and you did not receive the link to the pledge manager by email (undelivered, deleted, sorted as spam) please email us at [email protected] and we will send you your pledge manager link.
We will be locking orders this Friday (Nov. 20). You can still change your shipping address after Friday but we will lock your ability to modify your pledge level or change the add-ons. This helps us finalize the production counts.
As for delivery, manufacturing has started and we're still right on track for our estimated shipping to begin mid to late January, 2021!
We just received our final "sample/proof" of the expansion packs and pet packs and they look awesome. The white ink process turned out amazing! Here's a photo ...
Please let us know if you have any questions or you need any assistance with anything!
