[Highland Park] lost tabby cat
by victoria cole 17 Oct '06

17 Oct '06

Our big orange tabby didn't come home last night and we are all worried, especially our five-year-old. His name is Charlie and he's very very friendly. We live in the 5600 block of Callowhill, Highland Court, Mellon Terrace area. If you see an all-orange neutered male cat with a white button on the end of his tail, hold on to him and call us at 412-441-9117. (He just came from the Animal Rescue League 6 weeks ago and he has a chip implanted.) Thanks-Victoria Cole

[Highland Park] bicycle rack for car (2 or 4" receiver)
by Curt Shaw 17 Oct '06

17 Oct '06

I have a Sportsworks bicycle rack for sale that mounts on a 2 or 4" receiver. This is the top of the line from Sportsworks like the kind you see on the front of some buses that carries the bicycle by the tires so not to scratch the paint of the bike. It carries one or two bicycles. It is in new condition. These racks go for over $200 and I am selling this one for $100. Curt gginy2k(a)yahoo.com

[Highland Park] black and white cat
by Sherry Goldman 17 Oct '06

17 Oct '06

Anyone lose a black and white cat? My husband and I were startled to find a black and white cat sleeping on on back stairs Monday night around midnight because he looked so much like our beloved cat who just died a week and a half ago, except this one had a pink nose. When he heard us, he stood up and stared at us a while and then ran off. We live on Jackson near Heberton.

[Highland Park] looking for used Civic/Corolla or similar
by Rebecca Rieger 16 Oct '06

16 Oct '06

I'm currently in the market for an inexpensive (hopefully around $3,000), reliable used car like a Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla (but I'll consider other cars as well). Ideally, I'd like an automatic, decently well maintained, no major body damage, with mileage that's not astronomical (under 125,000 miles would be great). If you have a car that might fit this description and are considering selling it within the next month, please keep me in mind. You can email me here or call (412) 725-5261. Thanks! Becky Rieger Jackson Street

We have a ground hog who has taken up residence in our back yard, Decimated the vegies and has done a number on the shrubs, too. So, if some one is loaning traps, we need one, too. Email if you are so inclined. Thanks. Jean Clickner
