The Q at Parkside

(for those for whom the Parkside Q is their hometrain)

News and Nonsense from the Brooklyn neighborhood of Lefferts and environs, or more specifically a neighborhood once known as Melrose Park. Sometimes called Lefferts Gardens. Or Prospect-Lefferts Gardens. Or PLG. Or North Flatbush. Or Caledonia (west of Ocean). Or West Pigtown. Across From Park Slope. Under Crown Heights. Near Drummer's Grove. The Side of the Park With the McDonalds. Jackie Robinson Town. Home of Lefferts Manor. West Wingate. Near Kings County Hospital. Or if you're coming from the airport in taxi, maybe just Flatbush is best.

The Kitties Need You


Give to the Kitties! 

When feral cats get trapped and fixed, they can live out their lives fairly peacefully. Since doing TNR to a gang of cats behind our house in 2005, we've nurtured dozens of cats through the years. Without the sex parts, they're sweet and docile and don't scream or spray. They mostly manage to live through the winter. Baby Bootsy, one of the original cats we neutered, is now TEN YEARS OLD! Senior Gato and Spazzy Penguin are new. The three of them are good friends. Sure I miss Scrabbles and Corn Dog and Nichols and May. But they lived good lives. And that's what it's all about, even for we of the human persuasion. To pretend it's about more is hubris. (But whatever we're sure you're very, very important and your contributions to the culture and the DNA of Homo Sapiens immeasurable. Why should I kill your buzz? Now, back to those adorable kitties...)

FAT Cats has emerged as a local powerhouse in the movement, and they operate right here in the 'hood. I can't recommend them highly enough. Committed, caring and effective. Consider a gift today!

Yes, thanks for helping the kitties! Here's the donation link: https://www.youcaring.com/fat-cats-404553. I've got 6 kittens in my apartment now, all rescued from dangerous situations. All mad cute, vetted, and soon to be adoptable. Adoption fees only cover a portion of what we spend. FAT Cats are all local volunteers and we cover overhead costs, so your donation goes 100% to the cats. Did I mention how cute they are?

If you really want to buy it online, I can help you. My best friend just bought mesos from MMOAH. He said it is a great site which he had ever used. He never expected that he received mesos in quite a short time. And the site also provides the cheapest price than others. If you buy Maplestory M Mesos, just go to https://www.mmoah.com/maplestory-m It is much safer than others. Otherwise, my best friend have already used it.
