I've been pointed toward the Pride Pets kickstarter, and am I ever glad of it! These are adorable-sounding pins, one dog and one cat of a specific breed for each variation, in the colors of multiple pride flags; nonbinary, trans, both the more common gay pride and the specific lesbian pride flag, ace, poly, pan, bi, a sweetheart pin, and ally are live so far. Bi Siamese! Nonbinary Russian blue! Trans black kitty! Ace husky fluff! :) There's the distinct possibility of demisexual or genderqueer pride, or both! being upcoming goals. [personal profile] alatefeline, I thought of you when the idea of a genderqueer kitty pin came up. If it's a tortie...!

I personally could not resist the lure of an ace Maine coon, and did the Kickstarter backer thing for the first time ever as a result. XD I'm holding out for a demi pin as well, and reeeeeally hoping it's a demi labby or golden. Then again, retrievers adore everyone pretty much instantly and equally, so maybe not... I've also had the idea of a demi blue heeler in my head since earlier this evening, which ties back to my own personal history and has everything to do with excellent guitar music played by a delightful Australian friend and nothing to do with a fuzzy. Still, sharding well waaaaant. That'd be perfect. That's just me, though. I'd love to see an intersex pair down the line somewhere too. Intersex tuxedo cat? XD

What color are the bi Meezer's points? For that matter, what color are the Birman ally's points, since I believe that breed of kitty is colorpointed? Oh, and the FAQ specifically said the Maine coon's not a tabby due to the comparative difficulty of designing and creating stripey pins. Is there a solid base color beyond the ace flag's four? *curious*

Bi-Amese -- body is pale lavender (or pink, it's so pale it's hard to pinpoint). Inner part of the ears, lower front legs, and tail all have the same pattern of fuchsia, lavender, indigo in stripes top to bottom. The fuchsia and indigo stripes are twice as wide as the lavender in the center. The kitty's mouth is wide open showing a pink tongue. The entire pin is outlined in gold-tone, so the points are actually gold.

Google shows me Birmans where the outer ear is dark grey, and gently shades to light gray inside the ear, while the body is a slightly dirty white. The pin, on the other hand, shows a beige body, the front paws holding a pride flag, big smile and a bandana around its neck with the word "ALLY." The ears and tail are both brown, with sprouts of not-white-not-beige hair showing inside.

You didn't ask but I have to tell you that the Corgi is butt-first, with a very large three-equal-stripe pan heart covering its butt, and it's turning its head back over to look at us and check if we think it's cute enough. Yes, it's cute enough--its pink tongue is almost as big as its ears.

Maine coon body is exactly the color of chocolate ice cream. Num.
