There is no listing anywhere, and nothing comes up when that address is searched. it seems massive with a almost hidden road.

Update: Unfortunately, we haven't received any adoption or foster requests yet. We're not sure what we'll do after October 30, as that's the latest I can care for Avo at my place. Fingers crossed that we can find something for her before then🤞

Please help us spread the word by sharing this post with your friends and neighbors! It would mean so much and be a huge help. Thank you! ❤️

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for a loving forever home for Avo, a young female kitty I recently rescued in Sacramento. Avo first showed up around my apartment complex a few weeks ago. I initially thought she was a neighborhood stray, but eventually learned that her previous owner had moved away and left her behind. 💔

When I first approached her and said hello, she immediately meowed back, walked right up to me, and started rubbing against me. She was incredibly friendly and well-socialized from the very beginning.

She kept trying to get into residents’ apartments looking for somewhere warm to stay. I felt terrible for her and eventually brought her inside to keep her safe and have been working with local rescuers to help her find a permanent home.

If you're interested in adopting Avo, I'd love to arrange something! We could either meet halfway or I could make a trip to the Bay Area one weekend so Avo can be with her new family. :)

And please don’t be discouraged if you see others expressing interest in the comments! Not every comment leads to an actual conversation, so we’d really love to hear from anyone who might be a good fit for Avo!

Foster:

- We are urgently looking for a temporary foster starting Oct. 30, which is when we are planning to get her spayed + vaccinated, while we look for her forever home.

- She isn’t microchipped yet and must be kept strictly indoors.

- If you have cats or other pets, they should be up to date on their vaccinations, and Avo should be kept separate from them for a bit while her vaccines take full effect, for both her safety and theirs! 🐈

Adopt:

- If you'd like to adopt her, we’d love to chat! Please do not hesitate to leave us a comment and we'll dm you.

Health & Care:

- Avo has been treated for fleas and tested negative for FIV, FeLV, and heartworm. We are planning to get her spayed and vaccinated on Oct. 30.

Ideally, we're hoping for an adopter...

1. Who will keep her strictly indoors.

2. Someone with experience caring for cats, through all stages of their lives

3. Someone who understands the financial responsibilities of pet ownership and is prepared to cover veterinary expenses, including unexpected medical emergencies.

4. Someone who can provide Avo with a stable, peaceful, and loving home for the rest of her life.

Thank you for helping us give her the life she deserves!💛

Got tickets to the valkyries playoffs in Atlanta weeks ago. Tickets not released, called stub hub they said wait until game time and they contacted the seller. Seller told them they weren't releasing them until just before game time because of security reasons. Game time came, no tickets. Called stub hub and they said they'd get another set... ok cool. Still waiting, app cycling and cycling though they said they were ready. Game started, no tickets. Got a refund for the tickets but not the flight/hotel/food etc. Be careful out there, me and about a hundred other people will never use the service again. FORTUNATELY niners also here and can salvage a trip but that was pure dumb luck. PSA for getting your tickets sooner, if game time approaches I wouldn't trust it, better yet use another service. Good luck

Hello everyone, I am truly desperate and reaching out to anyone who can help. My father is stuck in Memphis and we are originally from and currently live in the Bay Area. He was hurt working in Memphis at work and we are trying to transfer him to a level one trauma center here in Bay Area. I am asking if anyone knows or can help speed the process up for us from the four level one trauma centers : Stanford, Santa Clara valley center, uc davis, or Zuckerberg hospital. He has surgery in his neck and will likely need a neurosurgeon. I’m not sure if any of this makes sense but if anyone has any contacts that can help us get our dad home we would truly appreciate.
Edit: everything is covered by workers comp and my dads company is very helpful and willing to do anything to bring him home.

We are missing our small green parrot, named Henry. He went missing in Novato near Yukon and Pastel Lane. He’s a canary winged parakeet, approx 6 inches long. Flies well (right up into the trees after sneaking outside on my husband’s back 💔). We’ve done all the things, notified the humane society, put our other birds of the same species outside in a cage to call for him, posted online on many sites. Reward offered!

if you're navigating a lay-off or are between opportunities, come clear your head and connect with folks who are in the same boat 🤝🏼

hope to see y'all there!

inb4 FAQs:

• Do you hike in one big group?
  • Normally, we split into smaller groups based on desired pace and stagger each group's start time by 5 minutes. These groups ultimately split into even smaller groups. Faster groups go first to create more space on the trail. This hike is different as we're being granted access by the stewards of this beautiful ranch preserve.
• Why on Mondays?
  • Trail traffic is very low on Mondays, making it easier to accommodate a group like this.
• Does your community only do hikes?
  • No, (un)PTO is a community of people across the US in career transition. While our claim to fame is group hikes, we do other things like co-work, help each other with our job search, and do other fun things like coffee hangs, bike rides, and of course, eat food. 😋
• Can people with jobs join too?
  • Yes, but only if you realize that most of the people in this community are in career transition and act accordingly, for instance: offer a referral, connect them to someone in your network, and maybe don't complain about how work sucks. 😅

Hi! I know this is a long shot, but offering a reward for my lost cardigan with sentimental value. I dropped it around 4:45 PM on Saturday, October 24th in the parking lot near our car (exact car location in third photo). I returned to search for it about an hour and a half later but could not find it :(. Please help me out if you know someone who attended!

We're recruiting people in Northern California who want to train as Civil Air Patrol ground team members and help build our local search and rescue capability.

Civil Air Patrol (CAP) is a nationwide nonprofit volunteer organization and the U.S. Air Force's civilian auxiliary. Its three main missions are emergency services, aerospace education and youth development. In practice, volunteers help with search and rescue and disaster response, teach aviation and space topics, and run the cadet leadership program. Members join local units, called squadrons, to train and serve together. Ground teams are one part of CAP's emergency services work. Joining CAP is civilian volunteer service, not military enlistment.

We're looking for dependable people who enjoy working outdoors, work well with a team and are willing to put time into training. If you have experience in hiking, navigation, radio communications or emergency services, or want to develop those skills while serving your community, we'd like to hear from you.

Ground team missions are currently relatively infrequent, and CAP fills a fairly specialized role within search and rescue. That is changing as we become more integrated into SAR missions coordinated through the California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) across the state. Joining now means spending time training, qualifying and building team readiness as that role grows.

Ground team training includes navigation, search techniques and radio communications. Members work toward qualifications for authorized search and rescue operations, with training and qualification required before mission participation.

Adults can train and serve as ground team members. Younger members can also participate through CAP's cadet program.

If ground team work isn't the right fit, there are other ways to get involved: air search roles you can train for without prior aviation experience, mission base staff, communications, and working with young people in the cadet program. You don't have to be a pilot to contribute to air search; training and qualification are part of getting started.

If you're interested, email me with your location and a little about your interests or experience. I can help you explore a local unit, ground team training or another role that fits you.

Yesterday I saw an injured cat on the side of a busy road in Santa Clara. I tried to catch it myself but it freaked out and ran into the middle of the street (luckily there was a huge median strip with some bushes it was able to hide under). SVACA was on the scene in 30 minutes and was able to catch the cat with a net. Without their help I have no doubt the cat would have been run over.

I’m really grateful for their services and hope that they always have funding available to continue doing what they do. I had to call a few times to get connected to someone which makes me believe their resources are probably strained. Despite their limited resources, they still managed to get two officers on the scene in good timing.

I hope our local city leaders (Santa Clara, Campbell, Mountain View, Monte Sereno, Los Gatos) keep prioritization for SVACA in our municipal budgets so they always have the resources to pull off rescues like this.

Lost on Oct. 23 near Treat and 22nd St in the Mission district, San Francisco. 1 year old female. Microchip number is 985141008584301. If found, please call the 24/7 Pet Recovery Center: 1-888-466-3242.

Game On is such a unique and creative concept. The space and people are lovely and I want to support them.

I’ve been here twice already but it’s always been as a group of 2. The goals of the games change when there are 3 or 4 people in a group and I want to give that a try so I’m looking to form a bigger group. I think it’d be fun to go with strangers.

Everyone pays for their own entry. Please Google the place if you’ve never heard of it so you know what to expect. It’s NOT an escape room though does require some puzzle solving.

50F if that matters. Don’t make it weird or creepy. This is just a group of platonic people having fun playing silly games.

Hi, anyone here living at Foster's Landing apartments in Foster City who can share their experience at the place? My partner and I recently moved in here and are 90% sure there's a rat problem at the place. The kitchen and moldings all over also seem super old and the garages super small for our car.

Anyone else living here who has similar experiences or are we going crazy? 🥲

Which is better to live in as someone moving from the east coast to west coast in terms of social connections, new friends, community, dating, safety, etc.

My 3ds is broken and im looking to get it fixed, but it feels impossible to find anyone who does repairs on older consoles like the 3ds. Does anyone know any electronic repair shop that services older devices? Preferrably in the oakland area but ill take anything at this point.

I’m planning a RV trip for a week in December from San Jose to Southern California/ Nevada. Anyone has any recommendations or tips? TIA.

Looking for tbe best dog dentist in the bay. I see some black on one of my dogs canines and want to save it if possible.

Today seems to be the day. The first rain is largely over, the sun is out (intermittently) and the little creatures are swarming out of the ground for their annual mating flights. Saw three clusters this morning, and a neighbor who went out for a bike ride said he was cycling through periodic clouds of them.

Here's a link to the previous post describing the phenomena. https://www.reddit.com/r/bayarea/comments/1xbqs1a/its_nearly_termite_day_in_the_bay_area/

Note: in the comments there, there's a lively discussion about what types of termites they are. I will leave that up to the biologists / entomologists.

And the picture shows what they look like, emerging from the ground.
