“Dear PoPville,
I feel like this has to have been asked but is there anywhere left to let my dog off leash in DC? She’s got so much pent up energy but I need an enclosed space so she can’t run away! All the dog parks and fields near me are closed.”

September 18th 2019 launched us into the wonderful world of corgis, and later other breeds/pets, hitching rides around town, often via public transit, in backpacks. Sadly, the series had become another victim of the coronaville shutdown. Not for the first time nor for the last, I hope, it’s Meatloaf to the rescue!!
“Meatloaf has been spotted working from home, he is very sad to not be on the actual Metro anymore, as evidenced by photo #2.” (more…)

Ed. Note: DC’s First Cat Cafe, Crumbs & Whiskers, opened in June 2015.
From an email:
“Hey C&W Fam,
My name is Kanchan and I’m the founder of Crumbs & Whiskers. I want to take a few minutes to share what’s happening at C&W with you, and how the virus has been impacting us.
Things are really, really tough right now. As an experiential business, we rely on our booking & reservation sales to fund our operations. For the past month, we haven’t had that, which has been really difficult for us. We applied for every loan and grant that we qualified for, but unfortunately, we didn’t receive anything before loans ran out of funds.
As of now, Crumbs & Whiskers is surviving. We will most likely be permanently closing one of our locations – our DC cat cafe. (more…)
hahaha, spotted sweet Zuzu sleeping on 11th Street over the weekend. Love the labeling. (more…)
