[Highland Park] Please do not feed to wild animals !!!
by Michael M. Nadler 10 Jul '12

10 Jul '12

Dear neighbors - Again on Monday after the garbage men are gone there were remains from where strays and wild animals have gotten into our, and neighbor's, garbage in the back alley behind our home on Callowhill. Please use garbage cans for those items that would attract animals to dig through your garbage, especially if you are leaving it out for days before the pick up. We actually are supposed to put out the garbage the night before, but we have people that simply take things out daily, and in this heat that we have been having it really can stink up the area quickly, so please think about what you might be attracting, as well as keeping the neighborhood clean. The 2nd issue is those who are feeding the squirrels in our neighborhood !!! We continue, along with neighbors that have a garden, to deal with the damage to the plants, as well as having a mess, as the squirrels bury these peanuts, then again in the fall/winter as they dig them back up. They are even going up onto our patio, which is above our garage, and into the planters and pots that we have planted up there. Just as we are not supposed to feed the ducks and geese around the Park area because it will make them dependant, as well as draw more than we would naturally have, this disrupts the natural order of them foraging for food, and what an area can sustain in wild life. Thank you for thinking of your neighbors. Mike Michael Millet Nadler Past President & Board Member, Highland Park Community Council P.O. Box 5036 Pittsburgh, PA 15206

[Highland Park] Adorable Kittens in need of good homes
by Andrea Kinsey 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

About 7 weeks ago a very sweet, stray cat chose our back deck to have her adorable litter of four kittens under. We have cared for the mother and 4 kittens since their birth. They are one week away from being completely weened and are ready to find homes of their own. We are unable to keep any of the cats (including the mother) due to a child's severe allergy to pets, but we really want to avoid sending them to a shelter. If you or anyone you know is interested in an adorable and playful kitten or the mother (who is only 1 year old) please have them contact me. Andrea 412-735-0460avkinsey(a)hotmail.com
