The prototype plush for weighted Nyx, Teacup Nyx, and Teacup Athena are all in progress! We should get our first photos of them in about 15 to 20 days. 

I submitted the new claw shape to the manu. So hopefully they can get the front claws on the weighted plush to be the way I have been envisioning them. 

Claw Option 1 won the poll. So the embroidery on top of the claws for the weighted plush will be similar to this.

And as for the name for the Cockatiel Terragryff, the winning name was Calypso!

So say hi to Calypso the Cockatiel Terragryff!!

I had mentioned previously that I wanted to do a Pride line of the Teacup Terragryffs, well we have been gearing up to launch the teaser page for the campaign!

Our first reveal is a Nonbinary Cheetah! All the plush will be based on Pride Flags and Wild Cats!

What flags and what types of wild cats would you like to possibly see?

You can follow the teaser page here -> Wyldefell Woods: Rainbow Terragryffs 

We will be working on getting a couple prototype plush for this campaign in the works soon. The campaign will be launching at the end of May, just in time for Pride month.

Surveys have been sent out. Please fill yours out ASAP if you haven't already. Surveys will lock at the near the end of this month and we will be charging for any add-ons/unpaid pledges.

Shipping will not be charged until after plush production is completed and we have a better idea on what shipping costs will be. I will keep everyone updated on costs as we get closer to that time. 

If you have any questions please let me know! 

I made a few mock-ups for possible claw embroidery for the weighted Terragryffs. Please vote for which you like the best of the three. Voting will end on Saturday the 8th! 

Also I'm so in love with the concept art that the amazing HappyFoxx did for the redesigned front claws for me. I will be submitting the redesigned concept art to the factory after voting has ended. 

The poll to pick the Cockatiel Terragryffs name is now live! Voting will end on Friday the 7th. 

I submitted the survey for review to BackerKit yesterday. So I should in theory be able to send out the Smoke Test surveys by Tuesday. And then hopefully get out the surveys to everyone on Wednesday. I will update everyone if that timeline changes at all. 

The amazing HappyFoxx who did the artwork for the enamel pins helped me out with drawing up some new front claw images to send my manu. So we can hopefully get the claws looking a bit better and a little less scary looking. 

I was sick this past week for a few days, doing much better now. So now I will be working on updating all the concept art for the plush to give the manu so we can get that process restarted. I anticipate new plush prototype images later this month/early April. It usually takes about 15-20 days for them to do a prototype plush from when I submit the concept art to them. 

I will also be working on getting prototypes of the plush accessories made as well. And looking into the big EST (Emotional Support Terragryff) vests for the weighted plush as well. 

I'm open to suggestions for what kinda designs you would like to see on the bandanas. I can have my staff artists whip up some ideas too. 

I will be vending at Animarathon in Bowling Green, OH the weekend of March 22nd-23rd. It will be my birthday weekend too. We will have the first weighted Athena and teacup Eudora prototypes for people to check out at my booth as well. And of course many many other creatures will be looking for their humans too! 

If you are going to Animarathon stop by my booth and say hi! 

Help us name our Cockatiel Terragryff! We want to keep with the mythological naming scheme we have been using. So we are open to any mythology based names!

She will be available as a wooden pin and a sticker via add-ons during surveys and in the pre-order store. And in the future will hopefully become a plush as well!

Once a good chunk of names have been suggested I will put up a poll for everyone to vote on!

We have a number of failed payments. So please check to make sure your payment has gone through or not. BackerKit will do another attempt at the payments in a few days. 

If you need more time, you will be able to pay during the survey period as well. 

I'm currently working on the surveys. Hoping to have them finished and out to everyone in early March! 

I will be working on the surveys as soon as I'm home from Katsucon, but please remember it will be a minimum of 2 weeks before they can be sent out. Payments have to finish processing first and the standard amount of time for this is roughly 14 days.

If your payment failed, you can update your payment method OR wait and BackerKit will automatically retry the charge later this week. At this time there is nothing I can do on my end to manually process this payment. After surveys have been sent out I will be able to help more.

I'm currently waiting on BackerKit to release funds. Once they have been released I will start up the prototyping process again. I will keep everyone updated on that process as it happens.

If you want to keep up with the action and get to know your fellow Wyldefell Woods friends come join us on Discord!

Our Pre-Order store is currently open for just Terragryff Plush pre-orders. I will be updating it this week to add the stickers, pins, and everything else.

For anyone who backed and wants to add more add-ons. You will be able to add those at the end of your survey once those are sent.  

You can find the store here -> https://wyldefell-woods.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

I'm not doing well mentally. Early Thursday morning, I lost my kitty Monster to a stroke. He was taken to the emergency vet by my partner but his vitals were too far gone. I did get to do a video call with my kitty and talk to him before he passed though. He seemed to respond to me talking to him. I'm going to miss him dearly. He was very much a velcro kitty and would try to be as close to me as possible. He always wanted to cuddle.

I'm trying to raise funds to get him cremated/pay for the vet costs. I have my Ko-Fi set up for donations here -> https://ko-fi.com/otherworldmenagerie

I have also restocked the OtherWorld Menagerie online store and will be adding more creatures to the shop later this week. You can check them out here -> https://www.otherworldmenagerie.com/
