Have you ever had an unexpected run in with needing to care for an animal in need, but knew you wouldn't be able to afford it? Artist Tim Munz has done just that, and here's what he originally posted on the Kidrobot forums.
“A couple of weeks ago, my girlfriend and I heard what sounded like a cat in severe pain coming from the back of our house. It turned out to be a young cat that had previously visited us on more than one occasion. The very next day I took her to the vet where they found that a portion of her back had been smashed in (most likely by a car). The only hope she had for survival was an emergency (and pricey) operation. Right away we attempted to find the owner to no avail. So needless to say, we were caught between a rock and a hard place. It was either give the go ahead on the surgery and promise to pay the bill in full, or pay to have her put down. We decided to help give her a second chance, and with your help, we’ll be able to pay back the vet and continue to do whatever we can to get her back on her feet.”
While this was obviously an amazingly kind deed, even those of us without pets know that vet bills can be incredibly pricey. RunDMB, Betso, Igor Ventura, Map-Map, Maucha, Luihz Unreal and Tim Munz are creating ten custom Dunnys to sell for US$75 (US$78 shipped internationally). Pause Designs created an illustration and Tim Munz printed 120 total postcards to sell and give to participants. There are also random prizes for those who buy from the cause. You can currently purchase the print for US$12 in the MW Shop, and follow @MWSERIES3 on twitter to hear when the blind boxes are available.
