We have so far raised $44.62 for Planned Parenthood through sales of The Cat's Job. Thank you. As we said yesterday, we will be donating the proceeds of February sales of The Cat's Job to Planned Parenthood, and, yes, we are still Doing That.
If you would prefer to donate to Planned Parenthood directly, here's that link again.

They also send trees, and seedlings, bees, and fingerling fish, so it's not all sheep and water buffalo.
I have heard that some folk who claim they know better say that all of this is a bad idea. They might be right. I'm not an expert, either.
But! Any other discussion of the unsuitability of Heifer International as a charity ought to be addressed either to Heifer International itself, or to Mr. Rothfuss, who after all runs his Worldbuilders Charity annually -- which means he'll be doing it again next year.
