Wallingford is such a pet-friendly neighborhood, isn't it? So much so, that our neighbors look out for one another's pets with almost as much care as their owners. Take Jenny and Janna, for example: Two lovely neighbors who helped get Muffy the cat out of a rather tall pine tree last week. Or how about the time when the Jai's dog Stella was stolen right outside of the Durn Good last year, in broad daylight, and neighbors rallied together to put…
Update, 10/10 at 8:32pm: More good news! "Muffy" the cat has been reunited with her family. Here's what Jenny told us: Wow...life is funny sometimes...I had 10 posters I was going to post in the neighborhood. When I was posting, and only on my second one, I freakishly ran into the owners! I was starting the second one, when a very nice man and woman approached me and asked me if I was posting about a lost cat, and I said,…

Last night, Jordan spotted this flyer while he was out crashing Wallingford block parties: (The goat was last seen on July 1, so let's hope the little guy found his way back home; but that explains why the lawns in lower Wallingford have been extra tidy lately.)
If you haven't yet had the pleasure of meeting Paul "Brownie" Brown, owner of Wally Pets Food & Supplies, I strongly suggest you take the opportunity to do so next Wednesday. On August 1, from 4pm to 8pm, Brownie and his friends (including the four-legged, furry kind) will be celebrating his first year of owning the store, located at 4411-C Wallingford Avenue North. There will be wine, appetizers, a lemonade stand, a raffle, and treats for his "feline and canine fans." Even…
Tomorrow night (Thursday, May 17), bring your pooch over to Wally Pets (4411-C Wallingford Avenue N.) from 5:00PM - 7:00PM, where Paws4training owner Susan Oshie (CPDT-KA) will provide a demonstration on K9 conditioning and body awareness exercises.
