Feed The Kitties
11 years ago
My stash of furry swag got a significant reduction this weekend. Fangcon's charity auction to benefit Tiger Haven gave me the chance to turn treasure into cat food. My hopes of aiding and abetting the goals of TH were met and I had a good time watching the auction in furson.
A British military vest (with more pockets than I had mags to fill), two canteens plucked from a pile of a dozen or so (only used to hold quarts of air so far), furry and non-furry comics from the 80's and 90's I was glad to pass on (before they got moldy or mouse-eaten), a garage-kit Asuka Langley Soryu figure (un-molested by angels). I was astounded by the "paw pride" badge that went for significantly more than when i acquired it at MFM '09; someone just handed it to me in the hotel and i thought it might come in handy in the future.
Knowing the crowds aren't ginormous at Fangcon and the con attendees aren't likely to be major shareholders in anything, the money my stuff raised was pleasing. I merely provided the motivation; I didn't feed the kitties, you the bidders did.
I'd kiss you all but you smell like con-goers.
