Greenpoint Fashion Watch: Thomas

I have seen this chap around the neighborhood for some time. Alas, I never worked up the gumption to talk to him— until today. I’m glad I did. Nice to meet you, Thomas— and thank you for gracing the Garden Spot with your inimitable style!

From The New York Shitty Inbox, Part II: Meet Munchkin

A lass named Monika writes:

I know you posted a while ago about District Dog’s kitten adoption event. I wonder if you can give some publicity to a special needs District Dog resident in need of a foster or permanent home. Two weeks ago, people on a bench in McGolrick Park saw a young man dump a cat into some bushes there. The people intervened and caught the cat, who, it turns out, is blind. They brought him to the great folks at District Dog, who are now urgently looking for someone to adopt or even foster this big boy, whom they are now calling “Munchkin.” The vet checked him out and he is healthy, except for being overweight. Munchkin is estimated to be around 7 years old.

I am doing my best to get the word out about this handsome guy. I’ve been visiting him daily and he’s a sweetheart of a cat, likes to be petted, and from the shop owners’ accounts, he is eating, using the litterpan, and manages to get around the store okay when they let him out for a stretch…

Thanks for any PR you can give this guy!

Anyone interested in giving Munchkin the loving, permanent home home he deserves should contact the folks at District Dog via email, telephone— or simply swing by!

A chap named Sal writes (of the above photographs):

I was going to lock my bike up earlier this morning. About 8:30ish. And I noticed “Enids” restaurant using the bike racks on the corner of Manhattan and Driggs as their own personal drying rack for their dirty floor mats. The wet mats were draped over peoples bikes.

Nice…
