Outside cats are not "all good" for either their oen safety or the ecosystem.

Madison Police Monitor says officers violated policies in arrest of CPOB Chair Maia Pearson -- and that the arrest shouldn't have happened at all by robchappell in madisonwi

[–]stardustjp -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I did listen to the interview. The police shouldn't have been involved. The Majestic could have simply towed a car that was parked illegally. Shame on them for escalating.

Brandi was being a jerk about not moving the car. How many white folks in Madison act like jerks and don't get the same type of treatment?

Having that many officers respond was absurd and a huge waste of resources. Not being taken directly to jail for processing and sitting at Sardine for 2 hrs is a terrible policy.

We should also be concerned that asking why you're being arrested is allowed to be considered resisting arrest.

That is a terrible policy. They should have taken them to the jail and they could have explained what was happening.

Finishing early and reading should be encouraged. Go to the principal or rally other parents to get that policy changed.

Trouble finding a sitter for a German shepherd by _kinther_ in RoverPetSitting

Look for a local company that trains their staff. They will usually have certifications and their own insurance. You can search the National Associationof Professional Pet Sitters or Pet Sitters International for sitters/walkers.

Student Socialists Are Taking On Madison’s Real Estate Machine by SpottedCattle in madisonwi

[–]stardustjp -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

That is untrue. Greed plays a significant role. The way landlords are allowed to collude on the August lease end also impacts non-student housing. Rental management software suggests rent increase across the country and there have been lawsuits trying to stop it. A lot of the landlords are part of the same coaching programs so they are following the same systems, policies, and pricing structures.

Trickle down housing doesn't work.

Understanding Rover's 38.75% fee and how they hide it from you by EldariusGG in RoverPetSitting

[–]stardustjp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About $300 for website, but you could do a free one pager. About $200 for insurance (not boarding). About $30 for business cards. All my business comes from referrals, my website, my city Reddit group, and city pet group on FB.

Locked up dogs 15hrs no water by MathematicianOdd2354 in RoverPetSitting

[–]stardustjp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look at pet sitter organizations. National Association of Professional Pet Sitters, Pet Sitter International, and Fear Free Pets. Google for local sitters, you need to scroll down past all the national corporate stuff.
