We've recently acquired a piano and I am looking for recommendations for a piano teacher for a 6-year-old girl (and perhaps her mother who played once long ago). Neighborhood location is a plus, but not a requirement. Thanks, Lynn Cabral

[Highland Park] Calico Cat
by Autumn Daniels 21 Nov '12

21 Nov '12

Is any one missing a young calico cat? At 6 this morning, my cat woke me up as she sat in the window making noises. I looked out and saw a cat outside. When I went out to look, the cat ran but after calling for it, the cat came over and was very affectionate. I do believe the cat was female. She appeared to be very well fed. Unfortunately with it being so dark out and her friendliness I couldn't get her to stay still long enough for a good pic. I wasn't able to bring her in as she ran off when several people walked to the near by bus stop talking. She was seen on Callowhill between Mellon and N Saint Clair.

Thank you to all that offered advice. I obtained a trap from the City of Pgh. and was told to put peanut butter in the trap. Animal control will return to pick of the racoons if they are caught. Thanks again, and I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday. J.
