| | | | | | “Contact Barb at 412-334-0924 or jacob75293(a)aol.comMADDIE would like to thank her FB followers for the many likes and shares on her last post. While MADDIE hasn't found a match yet, she hasn't given up hope and she prays her fans haven't either! MADDIE wishes everyone a happy & safe Labor Day weekend! She's sending you a photo of her plans for the long weekend ........ relaxing in her favorite spot! My name's MADDIE and I've been waiting for a forever home for 500 days and counting! I had a home long, long ago. I remember how nice it was but then one day I was living in the streets. Nice people took me from the streets to Angel Ridge. I had food, water and a bed but I was anxious with other cats near my cage; I was very unhappy. I went with a volunteer to a place called a foster home. It's real nice and I love my foster family but I stay in one room because the other cats make me nervous. I remember in my old home, I was able to go in & out of all the rooms and I especially liked the kitchen and sleeping on a bed! I miss having my own home. I wish everyday for some special human to notice my pretty face and come to meet me...I'll be a loving companion if given a chance with a patient human. Please continue to share my story and help me find my forever home! MADDIE is seven years old, spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, snap tested negative and flea treated.

Gutter cleaning/replacement - suggestions needed
by janet jai 05 Sep '20

05 Sep '20

An HP friend needs someone to clean/replace the gutters around her family’s porch roof (1st floor so not a high job). They bought some gutters but it began to look difficult because her porch has a flat roof so they would prefer to use a gutter professional. All suggestions and cautions appreciated. Please reply to me and I’ll pass them on. Thanks very much. janet jai
