Latest Updates from Our Project:

WE DID IT! 🎉

We’ve reached our funding goal! 🥳💕 Thank you guys SO MUCH for the support. I’m excited to get to work on making this project a reality!

What we’ve unlocked:
  • 11” Remi the Robin kitty plush
  • 5 sticker designs, including three from guest artists
  • the Pawdubons Coloring Book


My first goal will be to complete the coloring book and get the proofs in the works. I’ll need to make some alterations to the cover and finish the pages, but I’ve already done the bulk of the work on this. I can’t wait!! This will be my fourth book project, and second coloring book. Holding the first proof in your hands is the very best feeling!

The guests artists are hard at work on their sticker designs, too. I’ll be revealing those before long, but here’s a preview for now 😊

Cross-Collab = free rewards! ✨

Hello everyone!!!

Exciting news: I’ve made some adjustments to our funding and stretch goals based on your feedback!! The updated outline is below, but let me walk you through some of the key changes:


  • Daffodil + Maggie are BOTH unlocked at $6,000!
  • BACKER’S CHOICE tiers begin once we hit $8,000!


I’ve made this change to prioritize backer’s choice stretch goals! There’s been a lot of excitement about various Pawdubon designs that don’t yet have samples (such as Pip the Pigeon kitty and Carmen the Cardinal puppy) so I wanted to prioritize making the plush that the most people will enjoy 🥰

***when we reach a backer’s choice goal, backers will all be able to vote for their favorite design- and the winner will become a reality!

which of these is your favorite? are there any other bird species you’d like to see represented? let me know!



Most of all, I’d like to thank you all very much for the support. We are closing in on meeting our first goal and funding Remi the Robin kitty and I couldn’t be more excited 🧡

Best,

Jenna (Chai)

The Pawdubons plush campaign is live NOW!!! Be sure to back early- pledges within the first 48 hours get free bonus stickers AND have access to a special plush+coloring book bundle!

My birding hobby, my work with children and animals, and the comfort I find in plushies all played a part in shaping this project. I hope these Pawdubon Pals can inspire you to get outside and notice the life that’s all around you! 💕

(Did you know that birding provides important data on bird populations and how they change over time? when birders report their findings (ebird is a great tool for this,) that data is compiled and used for conservation efforts, research, and education.)

Whether you go watch some birds or just want to enjoy the comfort of a super cozy plush, I hope you enjoy the Pawdubons and I seriously can’t thank you all enough for the support 💕
