The Fluffington Post Teams Up With ASPCA for Limited Edition T-Shirt

The Fluffington Post has teamed up with the ASPCA to offer this limited edition Rosie the Retriever T-shirt. For every shirt sold, $3 goes toward finding loving homes for abandoned pets and stopping animal cruelty.

But we can’t create this special tee without your help. Unless we sell a minimum of 175 shirts, they simply won’t get printed, and puppies everywhere will cry. You don’t want a bunch of crying puppies on your hands, believe us.

This special piece of wearable art (created by the amazing illustrator Kiersten Essenpreis) will be screen printed on shirts made by Alternative Apparel — a company that prides itself on high-quality materials and sustainable business practices. This isn’t one of those “I’ll just wear it to bed” kind of T-shirts. It’s more of an “I’ll wear it to really cool parties and all my friends will be jealous” kind of T-shirt. Men’s and women’s cuts are available!

Rosie the Retriever shirts will never be sold in stores or on our website. If you want to own a piece of FluffPo history, you’ll have to act now. What better way to show off your FluffPo fandom and help cute animals all at the same time?

Go get one!

"He knew why he wanted to kiss her. Because she was beautiful. And before that, because she was kind...."

Mon, 16 Jul 2012 18:07:20 -0400

“He knew why he wanted to kiss her. Because she was beautiful. And before that, because she was kind. And before that, because she was smart and funny. Because she was exactly the right kind of smart and funny. Because he could imagine taking a long trip with her without ever getting bored. Because whenever he saw something new and interesting, or new and ridiculous, he always wondered what she’d have to say about it—how many stars she’d give it and why.”
