When it comes down to it, these are our Community Cats. They may have been adopted as kittens and then discarded. Some can be socialized again; some must be accepted as they are now: Damaged. Since People created this problem it's only fair that People become the Problem Solvers. We can do this with an open heart and in the spirit of Community. http://www.petmd.com/cat/care/evr_ct_misunderstood_feral_cat?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=SocialMedia&utm_campaign=petMD_MisunderstoodFeralCat_10162017

URGENT - Need to Borrow Kitten and Cat Traps ASAP!

travelrobb — Thu, 05 Oct 2017 18:27:40 +0000

HI all- I want to rescue a litter of three or four kittens living part-time in the yard behind our apartment building. I have a place that will take them and check them medically and treat them and then find homes for them -- I just have to get the kittens to them. I'd like to do this tonight (Thursday evening) if possible, or tomorrow; otherwise we'll have to wait until Monday night to trap them. But I'm not sure time is on their side. If you're in or near Crown Heights and you've got traps that I can use, please let me know ASAP -- and thanks very much. -Robb

I have an awesome pair of teenaged rescue kittens in need of a great home with humans that will play fetch with them, let them crawl under blankets, give them toy mice to hide in slippers and be amused by their hilarious antics.

Brooklyn Museum fountain and unleashed dogs

Mechanical_Whispers — Mon, 17 Jul 2017 20:37:23 +0000

Can fellow dog owners PLEASE keep your dogs ON the leash when allowing them in the Brooklyn Museum fountain. Not only are you risking at least a $100 fine per dog every time you do this, but it's going to ruin it for those of us who want to let our dogs play in the fountain ON-leash, if police start patrolling this area and tell everyone to keep out. Not to mention, not all dogs get along, and allowing your dog off-leash in a public area is very, VERY irresponsible.

Dangerous dog and dog owner in Prospect Park

whynot_31 — Sun, 04 Aug 2013 13:13:44 +0000

I've heard rumors of this person's existence for a while, but a fellow dog owner has now decided to put a stop to it:

According to reports, the owner allows his pitbull mix off lease at all hours, and encourages it to attack other dogs.

He then joins his dog in the fight, by kicking the other other dog and stabbing it with an ice pick he carries.

He sometimes carries a cane or umbrella and uses it to hit the other dog and owner.

Do not confront this person. Call 911 or the 78th Pct. A warrant is out for his arrest.

This cat has been hanging around Sackett Street between 4th and 5th Avenues for the last few days. It is clearly not feral - it is friendly though shy so it's probably someone's lost pet. I have been feeding it and providing water. If you recognize it, txt me on 646 429 2219.

VERY URGENT! PLEASE HELP.

Such a heartbreaking situation.
Lost dog in PLG/DITMAS/FLATBUSH/SOUTH SLOPE

The human was rushed to the ER, the brother dog Otis was killed, and Ella ran away. We do not know if she is injured and in need of urgent medical care!!

Please share everywhere!!! And please be on the lookout, and let's get her to safety, to medical treatment, and back home ASAP! TYVM

DOGGIE DETAILS: "Ella" - Female black Labrador Retriever mixed with Shiba Inu, - - curly tail, white spot on belly and white tint around her mouth. Responds to her name and is really friendly.

Baby Kittens Need a Home!

skiweemas — Thu, 10 Dec 2015 16:09:13 +0000

Hello Brooklynian Friends!

I rescued six very young kittens from the NYACC shelters and they are ready for adoption. Two are three months and four are 2 months old and having been raised by a stay-at-home foster mom from the time they were newborns, they are very well socialized. They are all super playful and cuddly. They are currently being fostered in NJ so you can meet them in their foster home or I can bring them to Brooklyn. Prior to meeting the kittens, you'll need to fill out a Happy Homes Animal Rescue application. They must be adopted in pairs and there is an adoption fee of $150/pair. Message me for more information and photos. Serious adopters only please. Thanks for your interest!

Dog Owners: Be Alert In Prospect Park!!! A Man Is Attacking Dogs!!

naturegirlbk — Fri, 07 Aug 2015 08:27:11 +0000

ALERT! -- Reposting a notice about a recent attack & an ongoing alert from FIDO Brooklyn (Fellowship in the Interest of Dogs and Their Owners):

Warning - Creep Still Threatening Dog Owners in Prospect Park!!! (Reposted from Prospect Park Dog Owners Page)
-->>Originally Posted by TG on 8/6/15:

I wanted to post a warning for extra vigilance in the park after an incident last night. My roommate was walking my dog around 7:20 - 7:25 p.m. near the entrance to the park at Lincoln Road and Ocean Avenue. He was approached by a man who chatted to him about how my dog was cute, etc and then said: "Nice dog. Do you know how easy it would be to take his head off?" He then violently kicked my dog and ran south down Ocean Avenue.

Concerned that my dog was hurt, my roommate took him back to our apartment before calling the police. Unfortunately, the 78th Precinct told him that he would have had to stay at the scene and call 911 immediately to file a report.

It seems that a similar incident occurred across the park two days ago, so if anyone else finds him/herself in similar circumstances, please call 911 immediately as the 78th Precinct requires. (The 78th Pct oversees Prospect Park.)

Note: You can also call the 78th Precinct Detective Squad directly at 718.636.6483 to report any incidents. Also, we are awaiting a description of this attacker and will post with any details once they are provided. But as this kind of incident has happened a few times in the park recently, be on alert to anyone who approaches you or your dog and carry your cell phone!!

Gravesend Cat TNR group seeking SPACE + volunteers (South East Brooklyn)

gigs2go — Sun, 19 Jul 2015 21:48:34 +0000

Gravesend Cat Friends is a 4 year old Trap- Neuter-Return (TNR) and Cat Rescue group. We have neutered over 400 cats so far, and fostered and adopted out dozens more.

You can check out and like our facebook page by going there and typing in our name in the search box.

We are seeking general volunteers, especially those with SPACE for holding trapped cats pre and post surgery (a few days before and after surgery)... cats are in special traps (that have 2 doors, and fork separators that allow us to safely clean the cat's litter and feed it without it being able to touch us, sort of a compartmentalized cage) the entire time and will never be let loose. Basements, garages, and covered porches are ideal for this. We operate out of South East Brooklyn, so Gravesend, Midwood, Bensonhurst, Coney Island, Brighton Beach, etc, are all ideal neighborhoods for holding spaces.

We could also use help trapping and occasional fill in with transportation to and from the vet's office, almost always on Monday mornings (8:30 am) and afternoons (5:30 pm). Jeeps are great for this, as we often have 3 trapped cats to move.

We are also looking to become an official 501c charity, so that we may collect donations. We're seeking grant writers, lawyers, legal specialists , accountants and others good with fundraising to do pro bono work and help us out with this. There are also many Pet Smart and other pet store grants to apply for.

Please let us know how you can help, and thanks in advance.

Free- owner died, 2 cats about 4 years old, Dearest and Dear Heart, can deliver to you in my car

gigs2go — Sun, 19 Jul 2015 20:52:01 +0000

The owner, an old woman, died and her 2 friendly cats were left behind. They are friendly, about 4 years old and get along well with each other.

Dearheart is a male, and has the black and white splotches/cow look.

Dearest is a female and she is a brown and white tabby (stripes).

Will be updating ad with more pix and more info.

They are vetted-
Neutered/Vaccinated recently/and negative for all diseases. Micro-chipped...

They are free, but we will be screening vigorously to make sure they go to a good home. They are being boarded in Midwood, Brooklyn, but I have a car and can deliver them to you.

We would prefer they are both adopted into the same home so they can stay together, but will consider people who only want one cat (separate homes) too...

***Email me with your full name, a link to your facebook/linked in page, and also let us know about your living situation.

IMPORTANT ALERT: DOG-NAPPING IS BECOMING COMMONPLACE

naturegirlbk — Mon, 13 Jul 2015 17:33:44 +0000

Important Alert: There is a huge increase in dog-napping occurring in our neighborhood and throughout the city.

Dognapping is a growing and heartbreaking phenomenon in Brooklyn, and in this city overall. Please do not EVER leave your dog outside unattended for even one minute. Do not ever tie them up outside of stores, restaurants, or anywhere in public, for any reason, for any period of time NOT even for one minute. Please - it is not worth the risk to your dog.

Please - if you need to do errands, just take the extra few minutes to bring your dog home first, no matter how quick you think you will be done, and no matter how much you think your dog enjoys accompanying you.

The insane reality is that people are literally pulling up in cars alongside tied-up waiting pups and snatching them, and teens are literally walking up non-chalantly pretending to want to pet the tied-up dog, and then stealing the dogs in a matter of seconds from whatever they were tied to by quickly unclipping their collar from their leash-tie, or simply unclipping the collar itself, and running off with the dog. And it is nearly impossible to find these stolen dogs ever again. Fact is that these stolen dogs are often horrifically used as bait-dogs in dog-fighting rings!! Horrible, but true, and dog-owners need to be informed of this rising trend.

Please - This is a terrible, but growing reality....Our dogs rely on us to protect them from harm and it is very simple to keep them safe. Never leave them unattended and vulnerable to being stolen. Not for even one minute. Never leave them unattended outside or in a car -- anywhere - ever - for any period of time. Its not worth losing your dog and putting its life in jeopardy.

PLEASE PLEASE SHARE THIS INFO WITH FELLOW DOG-OWNERS, WALKERS, PET-SITTERS, NANNIES, ETC...Anyone who might walk your dog, needs to be informed of this growing reality.
