OK! This is the last thing I need to do for this year, and that is send off money from kokeshi book sales. Also did a flash sale with some of my other titles, and some slightly damaged books.
So we can send 1200 USD which will sponsor Pochi and Gonbei, 2 Fukushima dogs for 6 months.
They are being looked after by Animal Friends Japan(they changed their name from Animal Friends Niigata) - nearly half their animals are a result of the Fukushima nuke disaster. So gut wrenchingly sad.
Thanks to everyone who contributed!!
Having a look around the web about the pets up there, found the work of Yutaka Kamimura, a photographer who is looking after the cats and dogs in the nuke no go zone.
