More rescued farm kittens looking for homes
by nicole carlin 04 Oct '22

04 Oct '22

(Pictures upon request) Here at Singing Wren Farm all our cats are fixed, provided with veterinary care, and are primarily indoor farm cats with a few exceptions. However, people feel comfortable dumping cats and kittens at our farm and at our neighbors. We work to trap feral cats for TNR and cats that are obviously socialized we try to find homes. This year we rescued 10 kittens from an elderly neighbors farm and have placed 8. Mochi (boy) black and white and Earl Grey (girl) grey and white are a bonded pair of teenage cats. They are in excellent health, very friendly, since they were bottle fed and are used to living inside. Mochi is a polydactyl and has the cutest mitten paws. Bacon and Biscuit are 10 weeks old brown tabby girl kittens that were dumped at 5 wks old and found desperately to thirsty in 90+ degree heat. They have had their first vet appointment and are felv negative and after some antibiotics are doing well. They are too young to be fixed yet, but they will only go to a home that will commit to having them fixed. They are friendly and very sweet. We are footing quite the vet, litter, and cat food bill as you can imagine but we are happy to do our part. We have invested probably $150 per cat so far (the little ones were in pretty bad shape when we found them) but are asking for whatever you can cover of that from our adoptive families. Please pass the word, these are great cats and ready for great homes. Nicole 412.361.4842

Looking for Antique Dealer / Flea Market Seller / House downsizing Consultant?
by Martha Riecks 03 Oct '22

03 Oct '22

Hi neighbors! I think I've seen posts on this in the past from antique dealers / flea market sellers or a house downsizing consultant? If you are one of the above or have a recommendation for one please reach out to me re a couple of boxes of china/dishware/collectable things my mom would like to downsize. These are items that didn't get weeded when they packed up their house but as they unpack into the condo, realize they don't have space for or didn't intend for the movers to pack for the move in the first place! Thanks! Martha -- Martha Riecks mriecks(a)gmail.com

Affordable apartment?
by Kimberly 02 Oct '22

02 Oct '22

I am helping to support a young refugee family and they are looking for a more affordable rental and closer to New Kensington where the job is located. It’s two adults and a baby. They are hoping for $6-700, which seems pretty impossible these days, but I figured I would try. They are so kind and from Afghanistan. Thank you! Kimberly
