[UC] Fwd: Lost Calico Female - Recognize her? Want to adopt her?
Begin forwarded message: From: Naomi Fiordimondo naomif...@verizon.net Date: October 2, 2010 7:41:29 PM EDT Subject: Lost Calico Female - Recognize her? Want to adopt her? Reply-To: naomif...@verizon.net A little over a week ago, I saw this sweet young calico female wandering around in front of our house. She had a pink collar with an SPCA tag on. She came right up to me and was very friendly. She even let me pick her up and hold her but I wasn't sure if she was a stray or just a new neighbor cat out for a stroll. I also didn't have anything to write down the SPCA number and and was on my way out so I made a mental note and checked back later that night and the next day but there was no sign of her. Today I saw her on 50th St between Walton and Catharine - this time without her collar, a little worse for wear and clearly lost/abandoned. I scooped her up and she's living in our bathroom until we figure out what to do with her. If you recognize her, please let me know as I would like to assume she is just lost and would like to return to her rightful home. If no one comes forward, I would like to find her a good home so let me know if you would like to meet her and possibly take her home! (We're at cat-pasity in our house.) She is tiny - maybe 7 lbs. - but I suspect she will bulk up a little once she catches up on her eating. As she had an SPCA tag early on, I suspect she is already spayed and has had shots some time in her young life. She has a good appetite and, despite whatever she has been through, is still quite friendly. She let me pick her up no problem, and she lets both my husband and I pet her. She also enjoyed sitting on my lap and meows nicely to us. Let me know! - Naomi

thanks, darco Lalevic, Darco wrote: Sure, as Glenn points out, numerous attempts to paint the neighborhood as a wild, out of control neighborhood that UCD and associated entities have now made safe. I disagree with UCD taking on an enforcement roll of any kind. I disagree with the entire Clark Park revitalization plan. I think it's wasteful at the least, and at worse, part of an effort to clean up the park to make it more appealing to the gentrification of the neighborhood and push certain people out. The structure of the UCD is designed to advocate for the corporate entities (and while, yes, it's their money mostly, the net effect is the general public is left out of decisions). -Original Message- From: owner-univc...@list.purple.com [mailto:owner-univc...@list.purple.com] On Behalf Of UNIVERSITY*CITOYEN Sent: Sunday, September 26, 2010 10:07 AM To: univcity@list.purple.com Subject: Re: [UC] Clark Park: Power and secrecy was the goal, UCR Lalevic, Darco wrote: I too am often offended by the bias and misinformation that is often propagated as marketing for University City. can you cite examples of this?

Re: [UC] Clark Park: Power and secrecy was the goal, UCR
A half-hour ago, on a cool, gray fall afternoon, I observed 15 inner-city kids playing on the new basketball court, 12 kids playing on the new older-kids playground, 6 kids playing on the new totlot -- all fruits of the Clark Park Revitalization Plan. Different people hold different priorities, but in general, I don't think it's wasteful to direct a little public investment toward inner-city kids every 40 years or so. I never ask strange children if they are gentry or not, but I also saw no evidence today that certain people have, in fact, been pushed out of the park, just because it's been improved. My friends in the Woodland Avenue Reunion like the way the park has been upgraded. A better park attracts people from all over West Philadelphia, every day. Completely ungentrified West Philadelphia neighborhoods, like those around Clara Muhammad Park and Carroll Park, have also lobbied successfully for public investments in these public spaces in recent years. Should our neighborhood avoid doing likewise, solely out of fear of committing gentrification? -- Tony West Lalevic, Darco wrote: I disagree with the entire Clark Park revitalization plan.
