I hope you stopped by the charity table if you attended @Anthrocon to meet Max! Gray Paws Sanctuary helps senior dogs and asked me to base him on an actual good boy in their care of the same name. Attendees raised over $100k for this cause, wow!!

Less than a month until @Anthrocon now - wondering about the new Friends that await?

Close crop of a character's face showing their eyes, nose, and just a bit of their smile. They have orange and off-white fur with brown freckles, a black nose, and green eyes behind gold-rimmed round glasses. Their eyebrows are raised as they look back at the viewer.
