[Highland Park] Nice 2BR Pet Friendly Apartment Available Immediately in Highland Park 850 + Utilities
by Will Walker 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Dear Highland Parkers! We recently sold our house but the new owners never showed up for the closing :( In addition to our house, we now have a very nice 2 bedroom apartment that we desperately need to sublet. It is available immediately and goes through the end of May 2013. If you, or anyone you know is looking for an apartment we would greatly appreciate it if you would consider ours. The rent is already paid through September 1. It is a 4 unit building and the other tenants are super nice. The landlord is really nice too :) He allows you to have pets which is another bonus! We have attached a few photos that we took of the apartment before we moved in so you can get an idea what it looks like without our furniture. If you are interested, please respond to this post and we can set up a time for you to come look at the apartment. Health and happiness, Ang & Will 6051 Grafton

[Highland Park] plea for 2 terrific cats who need a home
by Meg Reilly 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

I am forwarding this for someone who is moving in 1.5 weeks to a place that doesn't allow cats. These are a great couple cats. Please consider giving them a home! Meg Please contact: Erin Cunningham <erinluxx(a)gmail.com> Mr Jingles (the orange tabby) is the sweetest and most tolerant cat I have ever known. Our kids carry him around all day long, lay on him, put him in a cart and wheel him around, argue over him and he never one time has seemed remotely irritated by any of this one bit. He is a very playful yet mild mannered little guy. He loves to be pet and snuggled. Lulu (the white with grey stripes tabby) is our little bashful female. Even though she is a little shy sometimes, she is so sweet and loves to snuggle up on a warm lap for hours. She loves her Mr. Jingles and will often follow him around. She enjoys playing with toy mice and always comes when you call her.

Hello All, Check out my work! (See before and after pictures from 745 Chislett St attached) Please ignore this message if you have received it already. My apologies. My name is Justin Brown. I am a student at the University of Pittsburgh and also run a successful painting business during the summer (see the pictures & reference letters attached). We are fully insured and bonded too!
