Lost & Found On Monitor Street
Filed under: 11222, Crazy Cat Lady, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic
Given these fliers were found literally a block apart on Monitor Street I have to wonder if the kitty in question is one and the same. Since no gender is given on the latter flier there’s no way of knowing for certain. Nonetheless, if you are missing a cat— or happen to know who this kitty belongs to— please contact his (her?) good Samaritan at the above-listed telephone number.
Thanks!

Found On The Southside: Fat Cat
While no photograph accompanies this flier (which hails from Marcy Avenue at South 2nd Street), the copy is detailed enough. If you know who this porcine pussy belongs to— or perhaps would like to make him (her) your own, please contact his/her good Samaritan at the above-listed telephone number. Thanks!

Adoptable Cutie: Meet Nellie
Filed under: 11222, Crazy Cat Lady, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic
I recently recieve a rather disturbing email form my friend Jay at Dog Habitat. He writes:
We also have a female gray young cat that was left in a basket. She’s still here and we will find her a home as soon as we get her checked out by a vet. She’s a clinger- attaches herself to people (literally) so safe bet she had a home but was dumped on our door step. We’ve rescued quite a few abandoned animals in the 11222. Dogs tied to fences or left in the dog park and cats soaking in their own urine after bring unceremoniously stuffed in boxes with air holes cut out. Not cool.
Naturally I had to see this lady— and the container she was left in (which can be seen at left)— for myself. Guess what?
She’s a cutie! Follows is a little footage of this lady while Jay tells her story. Enjoy!
Don’t let her seeming camera shyness fool you: this is one very sweet-natured and gentle gal. Anyone who is interested in giving this winsome lass the permanent, loving home she deserves should contact the folks at Dog Habitat via email at: rescue (at) doghabitat (dot) org. Otherwise I will update this post once Nellie undergoes her check-up and (hopefully) gets a clean bill of health!
Paws crossed,

Spotted On Manhattan Avenue: Larry!
Filed under: 11222, Crazy Cat Lady, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Urban Fur
It would appear he has chosen to stay with us… at least for the time being! The above photograph was taken this afternoon after Larry saw fit to torment some nearby pigeons. I can personally attest as a witness on the scene that they were totally asking for it.

Happy Feral Cat Day!

Thank you for covering feral cats (and domestic cats), as well as doing posts about TNR workshops. I’m writing to see if you’d consider doing a post for National Feral Cat Day (on very short notice – it’s 10/16!) to raise awareness about feral cats and what people can do to help.
Every neighborhood in NYC has feral cats and most people innocently feed them, not knowing you can do anything else to help out these feline underdogs. But they can – through Trap-Neuter-Return! Our website with general information is here. And the workshops, including one on 10/16, are listed here.
We’re always willing to provide feral cat content at any time, National Feral Cat Day or not, so please keep us in mind!
Duly blogged!

From The New York Shitty Inbox: Found
Filed under: 11206, 11237, Bushwick, Bushwick Brooklyn, Crazy Cat Lady, East Williamsburg, East Williamsburg Brooklyn
Anna (who sent me the above photograph) writes:
I found the sweetest female tabby, appx. 7 months old, in Bushwick near the Morgan L stop on Sunday night. I have done everything to locate a possible owner, to no avail. I already have two cats and cannot take a third. She seems really healthy, but I also cannot afford to give her any medical care right now (blood tests, spaying, etc). I’ve tried to contact the no-kill shelters in the area, but they are either full or won’t return my calls and emails. She is presently being housed in my bathroom, but I would love to find her a real home or at least just a foster home for now. Can you either post this to your website or give me some suggestions on what to do? I’ve posted flyers, posted on craigslist, posted on facebook, posted on a few online databases, called Animal Care and Control, and don’t know what else to do.
If anyone knows who this little lady belongs to or would like to provide her a temporary— or better yet: permanent— home, please shoot Anna an email at: anna (dot) franklin (at) gmail (dot) com
Thanks!
