[Highland Park] LOCAL ORGANIC MILK---PART 2
by Robert Collins 08 Nov '11

08 Nov '11

Howdy Folks, The Manchester Farms organic milk will be in the store Thursday the 17th. I am told by the owner that it has a 17 day shelf life. He said it is pasteurized, but not ultra-pasteurized. He indicated it was the closest thing to raw milk that you could legally sell in the stores. I will also find out more about his organic grass fed beef and pork program. I don't know if he sells that for retail establishments. Ahhhh.......so many questions...... Thanks to all......... -- Bryant Street Market 5901 Bryant Street Pittsburgh PA 15206 Phone: (412) 661 8720 Hours: Mon-Fri 8 AM to 8 PM Sat 9 AM to 7 PM Sun 9AM to 5PM

[Highland Park] **PLEASE HELP** Two Cats Desperately in Need of Home
by Jessica Koehler 07 Nov '11

07 Nov '11

Due to an unexpected change in housing, I can no longer keep my sweet cats. If a home is not found for them by the end of the week I have no choice but to take them to a shelter :( This brother/sister duo I got when they were kittens, just over 5 yrs ago, and they have both been absolutely wonderful pets! They are laid back, long-hair, and vocal (in a cute way). Descriptions below and photos available upon request. Freddy Badger, 15 lbs of soft, cuddly goodness...he's a tru lap cat with the sweetest, most gentle nature. Friday, his little sis, weighs half as much and likes half the attention. She's a sweet, quiet, calm little love bug who's a pleasure to have around. She especially likes laying at your feet while you're sleeping. Former cat owners, if fur issues are making you think twice, I understand...but never fear! I'll give you this awesome, expensive comb that when used regularly really does keep the fur under control. They both behave well when being brushed. I'll also pass on litter box, dishes, food, etc. Please call 412-337-0159 or e-mail healtobefree(a)gmail.com if interested. Thanks for reading! ~Jessica
