Our delightful, supportive friends, Tag Team Tompkins, have donated their "Year of the Tiger" 5'x7" letterpress print (available in 3 different color options) as a fundraiser for our kitten fund.
The story:
We found a mama cat, Zoey, and her litter of SIX kittens under a garden shed in our neighborhood. We cared for Zoey as best we could until the kittens were old enough and mobile enough to come out from under the shed and into our home. We were able to capture them all on May 3, 2020 and they are now growing safely and quickly in our home. They are all happy and healthy but vet and food bills for 6 hungry kittens and Zoey is more than we were expecting so we are going to be doing a series of fundraisers to help offset the costs and make sure that these kittens get the best possible care before they are adopted to their forever homes.
Follow-up:
Three of the kittens were adopted out in the summer of 2022 but due to overcrowding at the local shelters last year, we were unable to find good homes for the other three kittens or Mama Zoey so they have been brought into the fold at Desk Central. Any purchases of these prints will provide donations to our local low-cost spay and neuter facility. Thanks so much for your continued support!

We’ve drawn these characters and hand-lettered their text in our own Tag Team Tompkins collaborative style.
