Winter Fundraiser, Day 3

Another $210 came in yesterday, bringing the total raised so far to $335 and leaving another $2,665 to go to reach the $3,000 goal around about Dec. 15. So far, 16 readers have contributed to the fundraiser. Thanks to all of them for their support to date.

No hard sell today about how fabulous this site is. Except to point out that a few of you sure do get a kick out of seeing my cats appear at the end of fundraisers past. The sooner things end, the sooner my cats appear. As usual, the PayPal button is on the right, or send me an email and I'll send you my mailing address.

Speaking of cats, last night a post of mine got linked on some chat forum and I followed the link and ran into one of the funniest .gifs I've seen in forever, a chimpanzee washing a cat in a bathroom sink.

Now what other site brings you quality stuff like that? Even Liz Spikol, queen of the cute animal pictures, does not offer you a chimpanzee washing a cat.

Hmm. If Liz is the queen of cute animal pictures, am I the princess?

Seriously, that is a cute picture.

The president of the KC and Katie fan club is waiting patiently for the cats to reappear, or for Santa to visit. Which ever comes first.

Are my contributions tax deductible? How do I get a receipt? Thank you.

a believer, this site is not a non-profit, so i'm afraid the answer is no on a tax deduction. as for receipts, paypal gives you a receipt of some kind and if you send me a check, i'll write you a receipt. gladly.

Phillip,

Good luck with the fundraiser. I just sent in a donation. I thought yesterday, when I decided to donate, that I was just supporting the best blog there is about what's wrong with my chosen profession.

Now I find that I'm supporting incredible videos too. I mean that literally--incredible! How do you get a chimp and a cat to be friends, a cat to stand still for a bath, and both of them to stand still for the video??

Please keep up the good work. You report the good stuff, with good documentation, and manage not to foam at the mouth, as I do when I try to tell folks what's going on.

Philip,

Love the Siamese being cared for by a chimp. On that note, I wrote a little post to your site, in hopes that my six readers would follow!
