1. You read The Rumpus and want to support the work we do. Thank you, thank you!
2. You love poetry and want to share that love with the world.
3. You want to help us pay our April contributors---we have twice as many during National Poetry Month and profits from these sales go to helping us increase our contributor funding pool! Our goal is sell at least 200 shirts/sweatshirts. As I type this, we have 175 to go!
4. You love cats, duh. (There is also a cat-free option. No judgement.)
5. Now that you've seen them, you love the editor-in-chief's cat and the publisher's cat in particular. Model pics of Biscuits & Gravy and Sweet Potato Pumpkin Pie above. Seriously, these cats have never offered (not even once) to help us with rent or groceries. It was time to put them to work and onto some merch.
