[Highland Park] two sweet sister kitties available for adoption
by vs 21 Aug '08

21 Aug '08

We are looking for a new home for our two kitties. My initially mild allergy turned into two rounds of bronchitis and constant voice problems, so, sadly, here I am trying to find them a new loving family. Tubby and Bones are 3, respectively 2 years old healthy sisters who love each other very much: they curl up for naps together and Tubby loves grooming her sister. We would like someone nice to take both of them. They never had any health problems or litter problems Tubby, as you can guess from her name has been a little overweight after being neutered but since weve put her on a wet food diet shes lost most of it. They are very friendly and fun love being outdoors or just snuggle on the couch. I attached a photo of each; Tubby is gray and Bones is tortoise. Please write me back if you are interested in adopting them. Thanks, Veronica

[Highland Park] Missing Cat
by Peter Gillespie 20 Aug '08

20 Aug '08

My little gray cat with white paws--white also underneath on chest and belly; short hair, sleek and small, a little gray 'panther' named *Sparky*--went missing sometime after 11 pm this past Saturday night from the 5900 block of Hampton (betw. Highland and Euclid). I can't believe she ran off or got lost. I imagine she was kidnapped, perhaps by some of those kids who routinely walk on Hampton from Highland toward Negley in the wee hours of Saturday and Sunday mornings, walking often noisily down the middle of the street, homeward bound from weekend revels. Sparky just had her first birthday, but she's still small enough to be taken for a kitten, awfully cute and with a fateful friendliness. So I imagine she's now being held captive somewhere between Highland and Negley on, or just north of, Hampton, hopefully by kind people, but you never know. And indeed, this is all wild speculation on my part, the only certainty being that Sparky is gone and her sister Blue and I miss her most grievously. Any information would be gratefully appreciated.

[Highland Park] Did my post get lost?
by michelle wahila 20 Aug '08

20 Aug '08

Hello Mr. Moderator, I hate to bug you, but I noticed that my post wasn't posted - It was subject: Dining Room Furniture with some photos. I sent it Monday evening, I think. And I figured you had a bunch from the weekend, but then noticed that some posts from yesterday and today went up. Did you receive it? I have been having some email trouble, so I wouldn't be shocked if you never got it. Sorry to be a pain. Thanks for your help, Michelle -- Rev. Michelle L. Wahila Associate Pastor Third Presbyterian Church 5701 Fifth Avenue Pittsburgh, PA 15232 412.661.4710 ext.11 michelle(a)wahila.com www.thirdchurch.org

Dear Neighbors: Can you suggest someone to plaster some of our dining room ceiling? If we don't get it fixed we'll have to buy hard hats for dinner guests. And have any of you had any experience with Mke, Bill, and Tom who advertise themselves as senior carpenters? Thanks, Jim and Deb Bogen
