Honey infused goat cheese: what some may say is a great afternoon snack with crackers can now be the name of your new cat! Honey, for short, is one of the sweetest ladies out there. She is very gentle and is known to enjoy a nice window-nap on a sunny day. It may take some time for her to get comfortable with new people, but she is worth the wait because once she does, she is a total love bug who loves to be petted. Unsurprisingly, Honey has a great appetite and loves to eat – especially treats, please! It must be her culinary roots taking hold. Apply today!
Iggy is a gentle and adorable one-eyed hound who is looking for a home where he can enjoy being outside and exploring, particularly when there are so many smells and friends in the neighborhood! Iggy may be 10 years old, but that doesn’t stop him from playing with anyone who is interested — human or dog.Some of Iggy’s new favorite activities include cuddling on the couch, taking walks around the neighborhood, and enjoying some delicious treatos! Iggy is an older pup who is soooo grateful and excited to have a second chance at a better life, with lots of love to give in return. Apply today!

Whoever is constructing Stephen Starr’s restaurant space at Signal House (1255 Union Street NE) is dumping their wastewater in this treebox/rain garden… It’s been going on for at least a few weeks now.
I have shared with 311 and will also share with DOE and DOB as well.”
