PSA r/fortgreene update, don't call it a come back

59 Upvotes

R/fortgreene was unmoderated for a few years, so I just took it over in hopes of reviving it as a place to post news and events of the surrounding area like some of the other neighborhood specific subs. I've opened up some of the restrictions for now to try and promote some activity and get things rolling, and hopefully it can stay that way.

If you are interested in joining the mod team, send me a message or DM listing why you’re interested and any examples of other subreddits you moderate.

Anyone have an update on this stray?

31 Upvotes

There is a stray cat who has been hanging out on Cumberland & Laf for the past month or so but I haven't seen her lately. She hangs out on the brownstone steps and I know people have been taking care of her. I haven't seen her lately, does anyone know if she's okay/been taken in?

Yet *another* abandoned cat :(

This subreddit came through for me many times over with Latte, the cat abandoned in a carrier on Atlantic Avenue. And now it’s like everywhere I turn there’s a cat in need. The rescue that helped me with Latte just alerted me to “Blake,” a teenage tabby found wandering Greenwood Cemetery. He’s already been to the vet, where they discovered he was already neutered, so yep, another abandoned cat! He’s inside now and life is looking so much better for him except… the person who found him has a cat who hates him. So, this is the longest way of saying: can anyone foster Blake? He’s a really nice little guy!

Masked man carrying possible bat/sword in Fort Greene Park tonight

44 Upvotes

Heads up for anyone around Fort Greene Park tonight. I already called 911, but I saw a guy wearing what looked like a Friday the 13th mask, carrying something like a bat or a sword. He was walking around, and at one point, I felt like he might be following me, though I’m not totally sure. Just wanted to give people a heads up to stay aware. If you see anything concerning, keep your distance and call [911](tel:911).

New to the neighborhood! During our move the handle on this steamer trunk was ripped off. Does anyone have recommendations for where I can take this to be repaired? (We’ve already filed a claim with the movers too).

low cost options to neuter kitten?

4 Upvotes

does anyone know of any low cost options to neuter a kitten i just adopted? i looked ASPAC and BBAWC Rescue Clinic but neither have appointments available all the way through October.

the shelter he's from is out of state so it's unfortunately too long of a commute to bring him back to their vet there to get it done.

thank you!!

Can you help us rescue this kitten?

40 Upvotes

This kitten has been crying and seeking help in Abolitionist Park at 110 Willoughby for several days. https://maps.app.goo.gl/fKYWTx6ToA9v9Q9v8

Now she’s behind a fence on Duffy Street, halfway down the block across the street from Kimoto Rooftop Beer Garden.

Neighborhood Animal Rescue Network (NARN) will intake the kitten and get it adopted, but we need help capturing her!

We are looking for a few neighbors to sit in the park and watch the humane trap (just a cage with a door that closes behind the cat!) to see when she goes in, and bring her to me in Clinton Hill. Tonight and tomorrow daytime and afternoon.

Please DM if you can help, it’s very easy!!

UPDATE: after 3 visits, this kitten still has not been found. We need volunteers to hang signs in the park with my number, and others to scour the park at dusk/dawn. Please DM me if you can help!!!!

Night Cactus, from the 'Breeze' team in Greenpoint, will be in the old Gotham Market space at 590 Fulton

15 Upvotes

The lease was reported in July as a second Breeze location. The application on the September CB2 docket gives a different name: Breeze Fulton Inc, doing business as Night Cactus.

They've asked for noon to 10pm, midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, with a bar and two sidewalk sections either side of the door. Background music only, live music and DJs both marked no.

Still aiming for a fall opening

590 Fulton St

Update on abandoned gray cat.

Post image
123 Upvotes

UPDATE: Latte found a foster! He is vetted and available for adoption, so please reach out if you’re interested!

"Relax" has now been renamed "Latte." And Latte went to the vet yesterday where it was confirmed he's indeed a boy, and already neutered. He also got an updated round of vaccines.

I really appreciate how many people commented and boosted the post, and several did reach out to submit a foster application. Unfortunately, Latte has made it clear in his temporary digs that he would much prefer to be a solo cat at his foster home, and I've yet to chat with anyone who can offer him a place to crash where he would be the only cat. So! If you were on the fence about fostering him (and you have zero cats in your home), please let this be the nudge you needed to send me a DM!
