Mark Your Calendar: Clean Up Williamsburg

Given Bedford Avenue has been alternately described as being like Times Square or Mardi Gra on any given Friday or Saturday night (with the detritus to show for it) I was absolutely thrilled to learn about this wonderful endeavor while running errands today. Any and all who are interested in participating in this event— or simply want to learn more— can check out Clean Up Williamsburg’s Facebook page by clicking here.

LAST GASP: Foster Home Needed

A lady named Daina writes:

I am a Greenpointer movingĀ  away for a year to Nicaragua to work with ceramics artisans, and I am looking for a temporary foster for my two cats.

The other owner is currently deployed in Afghanistan and is due back stateside in May, and will pick them up as soon as he comes back, we don’t want to place the cats back in BARC where they were adopted, we love them so much but have been having a really hard time finding a temporary home for them.

I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind spreading the word?

Their names are Oliver and Stella and they are really awesome cats really relaxed and easy going.

As Daina states, her partner will be returning from Afghanistan in mid May. What Oliver and Stella need in the interim is a place to hang their respective hats from the end of January (day after tomorrow) until then. If any of you, dear readers, wish to give these two charming furkids temporary accommodations you can contact Daina via email at: daina.platais (at) gmail.com

Thanks!
