Shoe

The East Village is a wild and wacky place — we wouldn't want it any other way!

I was walking down Avenue C yesterday, when I saw this lost cat sign:

Zapata.

They named their cat Shoe! If I was named Shoe, I'd run away too.

I wonder if they named their shoes?

Gato.

There was a farmer had a shoe
And Gato was its name, oh…

Lost Cat?

I was walking… oh, jeez Louise, where was I? 6th Street? when I saw this Lost Cat sign:

Lost cat sign.

If you take a close look at this sign, you'll notice a couple of things: 1) the man in the picture is black-and-white, while the cat is in color; 2) his hands are reaching around the cat's throat.

Hmmm.

It seems like a lot of cats are running away these days!

Rewards

There have been a lot of signs in the East Village recently, offering rewards for lost pets.

This one is from May 10:

$50 reward.

(Maybe AJ didn't want to be rescued?)

Then yesterday, I saw this sign, hidden on a No Parking Anytime sign:

$200 reward. 

It's not easy to read, but there is a $200 reward for this cat, who answers to the name Skitten. Or doesn't answer — you know how cats are!

Finally, this past Monday, I saw this sign:

$1,000 reward.

So if you're looking for some extra spending money, keep your eyes open for these lost animals — the record is still $10,000, set back in March, 2015!

Return of the Missing Cat Sign

March 26th was the one-year anniversary of the East Village Explosion.

Early that morning, I saw this gent videotaping the empty lot:

Videotaping the empty lot.

Interesting note: the signs hung on the fence paying tribute to the two who died here stop at the property line:

Signs stop at property line.

Even stranger is that signs for a missing cat have re-appeared:

Missing cat sign reappeared.

Keeping hope alive… in the East Village Today!
