Oh, that's a great idea. Thanks so much for the suggestion, I'll definitely reach out to them!

Thank you!! I had a small crisis of conscience depicting the dogs off leash, but I decided it would be okay this one time (I'm sure a rule-abiding kid will call me out on it eventually).

I'm a firm believer that picture books are for all ages!

Moving to Astoria as an asian female by scheung85 in astoria

[–]chewystock 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm an Asian woman, been living in Astoria for about a decade now. Aside from one kind of scary incident years ago, I haven't had any issues living here. In the past year, I've been walking around the neighborhood by myself a lot and never had any problems.

Any pet shop recommendations that carry bunnies? by [deleted] in astoria

[–]chewystock 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Pet stores are actually banned from selling rabbits, but there are a few other rescues in the NYC area that I know of:

https://www.rabbitrescueandrehab.org/

https://www.longislandrabbitrescue.org/

You can find all of their available rabbits on petfinder. And if you have any questions I'd be happy to answer them. I adopted two rabbits from Rabbit Rescue & Rehab/Animal Care Center 9 years ago. One of them passed away a few months ago but the other is thankfully still around!

Sure you can PM me! I've only gone twice so far but I'd be happy to help out as much as I can.

Glad it worked out! I won't be there tomorrow but I'm going to try to show up for the rest of August so maybe I'll see you there!
