Hi guys, We have a bunch of diapers (unused of course, haha!) that our 3-yr old no longer needs. They are size 5 Pampers (35+ lbs) and there are probably like 30+ of them. I also have a couple small packages of Swimmer diapers (same size) and some Pull-ups size 2T-3T. If anyone wants em, let me know and i can leave them on my porch for you! -Anna M

[Highland Park] more kittens looking for homes
by Meg Reilly 15 Nov '09

15 Nov '09

Hello, it's your friendly neighborhood cat foster mommy again! I've had good luck finding homes for my fosters on this list serv, and I'm hoping for a little more! I am currently fostering five adorable kittens who were dumped at the side of a road. Fortunately some kind people found them and brought them to Animal Friends. There are four boys and one girl. Two are brown tabbies, and the other three are pure white with little "hats." They are about 6-7 weeks old, and have to gain a little weight before they are fixed. Pending medical clearance, they will be ready for adoption in a few weeks. They are very friendly with humans, even my five year old son, and are particularly laid back as kittens go. As usual, an application is required by Animal Friends, and the adoptions are subject to their fees, which are quite reasonable given that the kittens will be spayed/neutered and up to date on all of their shots. If you would like to visit and meet them, please let me know. Thanks! Meg Reilly Callowhill St. 412-901-0901

by Geoff Clauss 15 Nov '09

Dear HP Neighbors, I have an unusual chiminea for sale that has been gently used. I think we lit no more than 5 fires in it the first season and none since. It has decorative frogs that ring the outside and I would prefer to have it find a new home than for it to go unused. Asking price is $75 or best offer. I would prefer to sell it by weeks end. Geoff

[Highland Park] hard to recycle event re:paint
by Amy P. Kennedy 15 Nov '09

Just wanted to let folks know, if you have a significant amount of usable paint left (I'd say greater than half a can) you can also donate it to Construction Junction in Point Breeze. I've also posted it on Craigslist as a freebie with great success.

Hello Neighbors, I am clearing a few things out of our garage and have left some items on the sidewalk for the taking. It's a random assortment of open bags, including some organic potting soil, grass seed, fertilizer, black mulch, white rocks, and maybe something else that I'm forgetting. Also out there are some tomato plant cages and a wood framed mirror.
