Get your CAT out of my YARD

To whoever owns a gray cat - GET HIM OR HER OUT OF MY YARD.

On Saturday morning I was in my yard mowing the lawn (grass) when this cat showed up. He looks at me and then starts pawing at my bushes. I run the mower towards him to "give him a scare" and he runs off. Then 10-15 minutes later I see him back at that bush, clawing away. This is a very expensive bush, so again, I take the mower and drive it towards the cat. This time he runs off but much slower, no longer as scared. I finish mowing the grass and then head inside.

Later afternoon I walk past my window and see that cat again, this time it looks at me and scratches my window, then takes a bite of my bush and runs off. WHAT!

I did not see this cat on Sunday until I was taking out the garbage. He was at the end of the driveway laughing at me (how cats laugh, not like a human) and then ran off again.

SOMEBODY CONTROL THEIR CAT OR I WILL BE FORCED TO TAKE DRASTIC MEASURES!

I didn't look at who posted this, read it and was fully convinced that this was a real post on ND until I looked to the left hand side.

I have seen several posts with people offering to "meet up" (drugs?) Thess posts contain code words so that other muggers recognize the code words and use the code words to show up and mugging? Seeing some strange terms like Discord (chaos?) and Sunset (death?)

quote:

If you live on Smith, Johnson, Lincoln, or Doe and have receive a bag of groceries on your porch/driveway in the middle of the night, please call the police non emergency number and report it. Better yet, if you have a camera and captured the person/vehicle, let them know. Sounds like this is only happening in our neighborhood. They don’t know why and the officer I spoke with this morning said they would send night shift out to patrol more frequently.

quote:

It’s probably a friendly neighbor. I doubt anyone is poisoning fruit and passing it out. We live in crazy times. Maybe post here first and request the person come forward before involving police.

quote:

These people are going up to houses and as soon as they see you have a camera they stop and put the bag down and walk away. They are looking to see if you have cameras. Ps. You don’t bring stuff in the middle of the night and Immediately stop and put the bag down when they see they have a camera they’re doing this to a lot of our neighbors

Why wouldn't you just like, look for camera's from the street?

Strong stroll for a mangy stray

quote:

This is bizarre. So a couple months back around October, my boyfriend had set his bike outside our apartment door for a couple hours while it wasn’t in use. We walked outside to the bike gone, the tires were kind of flat so we were thinking “ok they won’t get far.” The next day, we go to leave and the bike is back in the same spot it was stolen from accept the tires were fully pumped.... WEIRD. My boyfriend ends up moving his bike to our balcony so this doesn’t happen again. Or we thought.

A couple weeks later, we wake up and open our blinds to the porch, bike is gone. Someone had reached over our balcony and stole it once again. This time we just knew it wasn’t going to come back.

Fast forward to TODAY, my boyfriend opens the front door for a friend and HIS BIKE IS BACK!!! This time, with a target bag hanging off the handle bars filled with BRAND NEW bike pump, bike lock, night time lights, and regular lights (pictured). I am shook. No note or anything! I don’t know how to feel 🤣
If you did this or know who did please come forward 😭 thank you thank you thank you!!!!

I got my bike stolen and I... never saw it again, imagine that! Lucky

Exploration is ill-advised.
I'm just reminded of when we lived in a house that among a number of other rather baffling decisions, had a variety of overgrown cacti literally right next to the driveway. The inevitable happened a few times.

Suspicious bee Saw something really suspicious yesterday around 3 pm on my porch. A bee that I can only describe as "shifty" appeared out of nowhere at my house and flew around on my porch for seemingly no reason and when it saw the porch camera it suddenly turned around and ran away. I've known bees all my life and I have never seen behavior like this. Very strange. Is someone training bees to case houses? Please watch out for strange bee behavior.

Snow Again?

Just seen it's snowing again outside. I planted several hundred dollars worth of flowers and fruit trees and bushes over the last week. All purchased from Samuels' Green House. Will I be able to get a refund if the plants die?

update: Looks like about an inch of snow now. Global warming sure would be nice right now LOL

update 2: About an inch, inch and a half of snow. It's melting a little bit on the sidewalks and roads. No traffic accidents yet but I haven't seen a plow neither.

update 3: Snow has melted, no plow ever showed up. This city is going DOWNHILL FAST.

311 is the non-emergency/city services number. Fire hydrant leaking? Call 311. New pothole in the road? Call 311. Car got towed and you can't find it? Call 311.

Whether or not it's used to call police varies, here in Chicago if we call 311 and ask for a squad car to come check something out they just transfer us to 911 or tell us to call it instead.
