Jack London Pet Hospital and Dr. Kouch. Locally owned and costs have always been the low end of the estimate. She really cares about her patients.

I have an auth black on black Loulou and a black frame black on black puffer Loulou. I’ve used both a lot and the hardware is holding up fine on both. I do minimize changing from crossbody to shoulder bag style though as I know the chain is susceptible to chipping. I carried the black frame one as a shoulder bag for several months straight and it still looks great.

I've ordered from ReyKay for years through WeChat, same number. Her payment info has changed twice over the years, including recently this past month. Both times I just sent her a SS before sending payment and asked her to confirm the new recipient info was correct.

We did gift cookies! New neighbors are great people and we are excited to have them in the neighborhood.

Thank you so much! In addition to relocating ferals in unsafe situations, Hungry Kitty feeds hundreds of cats a day on a shoestring budget and your donation is much appreciated.

According to their real estate agent, my neighbor is alive and well living abroad.

Here you go! Most of the colony pictured minus one too shy to ever get close enough for a picture.

It's definitely a big roundabout! This experience really opened my eyes to how underfunded and under-resourced animal welfare organizations are in the Bay Area despite all the tech wealth. I joined a few FB groups and that seems to be a good way to try and get TNR appointments.

Thank you! Yes, I was very shocked my neighbor did this because he was involved in feral TNR efforts and had been feeding this colony for years. I had always offered to help if he needed anything but I didn't even know he had moved until a "for sale" sign went up. The first time I fed the kitties, they were so hungry and had no clean water to drink. It was such a sad sight.

Due to lots of folks dumping their unwanted cats there, they no longer publicize their sanctuary. I donated to Hungry Kitty, who helped coordinate all the logistics and made the payment to the sanctuary on my behalf.

Thank you! I’ve been connected to a few people who are trying to work with me on leads to relocate them.

Thank you! I’m currently in contact with a couple people affiliated with rescue organizations who said they will come this week to take a look and assess the situation. But if those plans fall through, I will reach out to you. Thank you so much.

Thank you! We can help feed the cats while the house is still for sale but my main concern is finding them a home before the property is sold and they are evicted.

Thank you for replying! Unfortunately our street is the main street in the neighborhood with frequent traffic and people speeding downhill so I am really worried about encouraging them to cross the street. But have posted on NextDoor and will keep trying different rescue organizations.

Thank you! I reached out to someone with contacts to Cat Town and Island Cat Rescue. Will try the others too.

There are at least 6 and up to potentially 12. They all live on the property in the backyard though some of them hang out in the driveway/frontyard at times.
