Kit (he/she/they/them/it) is the user’s constant companion. Wherever they choose to roam, Kit will accompany and guide them with clever, playful encouragement and support — giving the user the confidence to run free.

Ah, I had not found that page from my research. That seems to explicitly represent the intention that Kit can be whatever gender people want Kit to be.

I think it would have been better if they didn't specifically list out he/she/they/them/it. They could have just used the name in the sentence like that already do. That would have made it flow naturally.
