The eviction notice was taped to my door today.

I have to file an answer or pay within 7 days.

Contractors haven’t been told to go back to work yet.

Please help. Donate. And share.

We can’t be homeless. We can’t lose the pets. We are so scared.

Things were much happier last year.

Even as the shutdown ends, we’re facing eviction, medical bills and uncertainty. We need to stay housed.

Please, if you can help, donate and share.

We only rate dogs. This is a family of Suburban Gold Fairies. It's rare for them to travel together like this. Very magical but please only send dogs. Thank you... 13/10 for all (TT: hdbrosriley)

Please share YouTube links to the most regionally specific representations of where and when you grew up. Like… local sandwich shop commercials. Footage of amateur theater productions. Hyper regional news stories. I wanna see it all.

This is Oakley. He has an injury that requires physical therapy and at-home massages. Luckily, his cat sibling River has been training his whole life for this. 14/10 for both

Friends,

Pegasus Residential told me this morning that they are moving ahead with the eviction despite the government likely reopening this week, which make it nearly impossible to rent a new place.

Please help us, and Bigby and friends, stay housed.

Please consider donating. We really don’t want to Have to surrender the pets, but it looks like that could be necessary.

I love this. Everything about it. Way to go, Pedro Elias Garzon Delvaux! (and he loves Poirot--but of course!)
“His mother, Félicité Garzon Delvaux, grew up in an 18th-century museum-palace, daughter of a curator and an artist — and regularly takes her son to exhibits.”

And he dresses to match his Resistance hero. Perfection.

I’ve reached out to a community group for help, and they’ve set up a GoFundMe to help avoid the eviction, pay for food and get us set in another place. As a federal contractor, it could be 30 days before they pay me after the shutdown ends. Please help if you can. Please share.

In just four days, she and her sister Annie will have been here for ONE YEAR. As you can see, she is a lap cat that loves cuddling! Why have they been passed over for so long!? Rescue them in #Tucson!

CHAD (6yr) is one of the most remarkable cats we've ever had. He is large, gentle, and intense. He is bonded with his best friend Squidge (7) and they would like to go home together.

... Where he can stare at you. Like this. All day. #Tucson

PLEASE TURN OFF OUTDOOR FANS AT NIGHT! Fans can injure or kill bats. This California leaf-nosed bat has some head trauma from a fan run-in. Please keep any outdoor fans off all night even if they don't have lights. 🦇
