Missing On Manhattan Avenue: Andrew
I spied this flier (at Huron Street) while knocking around north ‘Point earlier today. If you have seen Andrew or know of his whereabouts please contact his “person” at the above-listed telephone number. Thanks!

Urban Fur: Back To Work
I, among many other North ‘Pointers, was absolutely elated to hear the good news that C.C. has been safely returned to his place of work/play. Naturally this morning I had to swing by Animal Planet and welcome him back. What awaited me was a changed man.
Not only is C.C. downright affectionate nowadays, but his person told me he answers to his name now is downright aggressive about getting lovins’.
If the scratches I spied on his nose are any indication, I’d say Mr. Sabathia had a run-in with an urban lion even more formidable than himself. Perhaps working retail isn’t such a bad “gig” after all? His co-worker, Kobe (who’s traditionally been the more level-headed of the pair), had this to say about C.C.’s homecoming: a hiss and a healthy swat to the face. That’ll learn him.

When I saw this chap last night I simply had to ask him if I could take a photograph. Pandas, being an endangered species, are quite rare. And this was the first and only time I have seen one in north Brooklyn! True to form this 11222-er had his “smartphone” on the ready. Note the carefully placed hole in his “mouth” so as to accommodate a cigarette. One word: awesome.

From The New York Shitty Inbox: C.C. Has Been Found!
As some of you might recall one of north Greenpoint’s more substantial shop cats, C.C. (as seen at left), went missing from Animal Planet last November. Well, today I have very good news! He has been found!
Apparently a woman on Eagle Street spied hm and contacted his “people” at Animal Planet. They came over with a carrier which, naturally, he refused to enter. However, when food was offered he felt quite differently; he pounced upon it and they upon him.
As for what C.C. experienced during his two month leave of absence is anyone’s guess: he isn’t talking. I suspect (or would that be hope?) the recent arrival of some downright brutal weather will motivate him to stay indoors moving forward.
