\"\"Have you heard about Cashnip Kitty who spends his days raising money for the homeless. He raises a few smiles in the process. You see, he\u2019s an office cat for a marketing firm in Tulsa, OK. Evidently, he enjoys sitting at the glass doors of his office building and people-watching. One day the owner walked into the foyer and noticed the cat sitting on a pile of dollar bills. He discovered that people, seeing the cat, would entice him by slipping a bill through the slot between the doors and the cat would take it. So the owner of the firm put up a sign saying, if the cat takes your dollar, we\u2019ll donate it to the homeless.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a video of Cashnip (Aka Sir Whine\u2019s A lot) at work. http:\/\/www.khq.com\/story\/36386324\/this-cat-is-raising-money-for-the-homeless-in-tulsa<\/a><\/p>\n

She\u2019s sent over 300 photos out so far. http:\/\/nypost.com\/2017\/09\/02\/this-woman-is-using-her-goofy-cat-to-raise-money-for-harvey-aid\/<\/a><\/p>\n
