At the adoption event last weekend, I was given a rescue t-shirt and declared an "official" volunteer.
The t-shirt?
Um ... yeah.
(The rescue had previously focused on dogs; they have only expanded to include cats recently due to overwhelming need in this area.)
I'm ... pretty sure this will be worn at events only. Ha.

I am so not a fan.. this and the "show me your kitties" one.. really? why do we sexualize companion animals
Ditto Tails comment. I saw the photo of that shirt from the Tractor Supply event and was embarrassed. Couldn't have been a cheerful complier there.....Not everyone has the same type of sense of humor, and I don't think you can assume that most people have a raunchy one.
I agree with you guys. I will say that the rescue sold several of those t-shirts at the event Saturday, so the t-shirts are making money that goes to support the animals. And I think sometimes there's a kind of gallows humor that kicks in, like, yeah, we're in a desperate situation, so let's have some fun. and go for biker crowd. Ha.
But! I think the rescue has several different designs for their t-shirts (I haven't been spending time at the adoption center other than to pick up/drop off); these were just the ones available at that particular event. So it's not all crass humor and boob jokes. :)
