Hey Everyone!
We hope you’ve been enjoying your game, and that those nasty cucumbers aren’t giving your adorable cat meeples too much trouble! Today, we wanted to share something exciting with all of you… tiny games!
Envy Born Games the co-publisher of Cats vs Cucumbers has recently launched the Tiny Game Series on Kickstarter, featuring three unique, travel friendly games: Dragon Roost, Prowl, & Space Potato.
Since you’re clearly cat lovers, we thought a few of these might be right up your alley:
Prowl: Well because it’s all about big cats… and by big cats, we mean tigers. 🐅
Dragon Roost: featuring adorable baby dragon miniatures that are cute as a button. It also hits that same light, family-weight feel you love, perfect for quick, fun sessions like Cats vs Cucumbers.
Space Potato: a clever worker placement and resource management game designed by Ammon Anderson (the same designer behind Cats vs Cucumbers). We know he’d love your support on this one too!
If any of these catch your interest, we’d love for you to check out the campaign and learn more. We’ve got some awesome bundle discounts available right now, plus a free bonus dragon miniature for anyone that backs a game during the campaign! CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE!
Thanks again for all your support, we truly appreciate you being part of this journey.
Fulfillment Update

Hi everyone! Sorry this has taken so long for us to post. We have had a few challenges getting this game out to the rest of the world. We just wanted to provide a quick update for our international backers.
If you packages was shipped, the shipping tracking number can be found in your backerkit account.
Canada
We sent a pallet of product to a fulfillment hub in Canada about 5 weeks ago. They apparently just received it 2 days ago and said they will get those processed in the next 6-10 days. So expect to begin receiving packages in Canada! We do not know why it took longer to get to the Canadian distribution hub than everywhere else in the world. We have been trying to get this moving for a while. Thank you so much for your patience.
UK
Zatu has processed all orders and shipments have gone out. I believe many of you should have already gotten your packages. If you have not received your game yet, you will soon.
AU/NZ
We are working with Lets Play Games for fulfillment. These have all gone out and you should have received these in the past several weeks. Please reach out with any issues.
Rest of World
These were shipped. We did have a mistake by our fulfillment parter. They apparently sent out quite a few packages with peoples usernames instead of their actual names. We are working on a solution for those packages that have been returned. Please let us know if you did not receive your package yet or DHL informed you they couldn't deliver. If you have already commented, messaged, emailed or posted about it, no need to reach out. We have you on the list already for replacements. We are working on a solution to get enough copies back to the fulfillment parter for replacements. We will let you know as soon as we have a solution. thank you so much for your patience.
For the rest of the the REST OF THE WORLD, you should have received your packages weeks ago.
We really hope you are enjoying the game. Please reach out with any problems or missing packages and we will look into that.
All the best,
Ammon Anderson

Hey awesome backers!
We have had several people reach out for clarification about the use of Toys in the game. We created a Glossary of the Toys to remove any questions about their use.
You can access that printable on my website: levity.games
Second: We have had questions about how the Cat Tree is assembled. I shot a video to help you all with that small task. You can watch it here:
Thanks again for all your positivity, and patience! You people all ROCK!

USA Fulfilled! International is beginning soon.

Hello CVC backers! You guys all totally rock! Thank you all so much for your patience as we have been working to get you this cute game!
US fulfillment:
This past weekend, we had a blast packaging up over 2000 copies of the game and shipping them out to the US backers. Our home was filled with SO MANY BOXES and we made boxes and we broke down and recycled other boxes. Mathue flew in from Philly to join us, and we had other publisher friends just show up with food and a truck and their help! A huge shoutout to Last Night Games for just being super cool! We had kids come home from college to help us fulfill this game. We had good food, watched super fun films and just worked 12 hours a day for 3 days to get this to you! Check out these photos:
International Fulfillment:
The international fulfillment companies have all been paid for the shipping expenses and their services and will begin fulfilling very soon. We will updated soon on that.
IMPORTANT: BACKERKIT (If you have NOT submitted your shipping address)
We have over 150 people who have not confirmed their shipping addresses and paid their shipping fees. Our international fulfillment partners will only ship 2 waves of fulfillment for us and then they will destroy their remaining stock as they won't maintain long term storage for us (because they are a short term fulfillment company). So, if you are missing the first wave (in the next week, we will do another final shipment in 3-4 weeks. IF YOU DO NOT PROVIDE SHIPPING BEFORE THIS and you are outside the Continental United States, it will become 3 times more expensive to ship your products to you. We will need to charge additional shipping costs if you miss both shipping waves.
We have sent 20+ reminders to update shipping information. If you have concerns that you don't know if you have filled out your shipping information on Backerkit, please reach out. You can also log into Backerkit with the email address that you use for Kickstarter here to confirm your shipping for Cats Vs Cucumbers here: Backerkit.com

All the best, Ammon, Melanie & Mathue

Hey Everyone!
We hope everyone had an amazing holiday season and is off to a great start in 2026! It’s been about a month since our last update, so we wanted to share where things currently stand.
Right now, we’re in the final stretch as games make their way to our fulfillment hubs around the world.
United States Our product has officially cleared customs and is currently on a ship awaiting unloading and transport to our final delivery destination. We’re estimating that fulfillment will begin toward the end of the month.
United Kingdom A full pallet of games is on its way to our UK fulfillment partner, Zatu. Once we have a clearer timeline from them, we’ll share an update on when fulfillment will begin.
Canada After the inventory arrives and is unloaded in the US, a portion will be diverted to our Canadian fulfillment partner, Board Game Bliss. We’ll provide an update on delivery timelines once the inventory is received by their warehouse.
Australia & New Zealand Our fulfillment partner, Let’s Play Games, is currently arranging pickup of the inventory for delivery to their Australian fulfillment hub. We’ll share an update on delivery timing once the inventory is received.
Rest of World (ROW) Our China based fulfillment partner, has arranged pickup of inventory directly from the manufacturer. Fulfillment for these regions should begin within the next couple of weeks.
That’s all for now! If you have any questions, please feel free to leave a comment below, and we’ll respond as soon as we can.
Thanks again for your patience and support 💚 Ammon, Melanie, & Mathue
