Back in January we had a coolest pet in Petworth contest. I’ve recently been approached to start up a new contest including all the PoP neighborhoods – Petworth (if you didn’t enter last time), Columbia Heights, U Street, Logan Circle, Shaw, Mt. Pleasant, hell wherever you live. So without further ado the first entry is “Kilo” from Park View.
You can send your photos to [email protected] for the next two weeks and I’ll pick the finalists and you guys will pick the winner with the fancy new poll feature. Good luck.

Walking up 13th Street I spotted this parrot enjoying the Saturday sun. Not a sight I see everyday but pretty cool. And this parrot talked more than Steve Buscemi in Fargo.

The signs themselves are fairly typical. But my question to you is, why are they planted in someone’s front yard? That homeowner must’ve seriously snapped one day. This is my vision of him coming home that fateful day: “Maude! Maude! Those damn dogs did it again! I warned them! Get me my wrench!!!!”
Ed. note: I in no way condone nor intend to trivialize the seriousness of rogue dog waste.

How could you walk by this and not take a picture…

I guess I’m noticing a trend…

I thought only cats were supposed to sit in windows like this, right?

A while ago I shared our little secret of mice in the neighborhood. So I got a cat, Dingo, and since I got Dingo I haven’t seen any more mice. Now I was sitting on my porch the other day and I saw a stray cat walk by with a mouse in its mouth. And I thought – awesome! Why don’t we let nature run its course. Now don’t get me wrong, I like my cat and I’m glad Dingo has a nice home but would it be so wrong if we had dozens of cats on the street to take care of our mice problem? Wait, would we then have a cat problem?
