This tabby has been hanging around the 4700 block of Hazel for the last couple of weeks. If you know him please contact Kathy at keisenberg [at] womenslawproject.org.

A 12-year old female cat, Hallie a.k.a. The Boog (short for “Boogie”), is looking for a new home. She needs to be in a home without other cats. The home where she is right now has a blended family of four cats which does not work well for her. The Boog would be happier with another loving owner.

The Boog is black, declawed, vocal and feisty but loves to hang out with you and sit on your thigh, facing outward, while you pet her. She’s on the plump side, but has no health problems.

The Boog is up-to-date on vet care, shots, etc. She loves ham, yogurt and edamame. She likes to know what you are up to. She needs focused attention but can be happy by herself as well. She will use a litter box as long as she is the only cat using it. She has no special dietary requirements.

If you are interested please contact The Boog’s current owner at: hippieflanders [at] gmail.com.

Today’s dog is Dakota, a male beagle.

Dakota is very good with kids and is house broken and trained in basic commands. His owners currently can’t handle their two dogs with a new baby and would love to find a loving home for him.

Dakota is also good with other dogs, but his owners are not sure about cats since he hasn’t been around any.

Dakota is up to date with all vaccinations, flea treatment and is neutered.

A reader Lori emailed with this information:

This older female tabby showed up on my steps today (500 block of Melville). She has no collar and I’ve never seen her before. She is in good health and very friendly. Please call me at 215-662-0749 if you know where she lives.

Today’s cat is Eggroll, a young and lovely dilute torbico (tortoiseshell + calico markings). She’s about one year old. She has rather pointy ears and nose, indicating that she may have a bit of Siamese in her.

Eggroll was rescued by a social worker on a rainy day. She was wearing a flea collar that was way too big — probably because she had lost so much weight fending for herself on the streets.

She is active and playful, but enjoys affection and cuddling, too. She shares a foster home with several other cats and a small dog, and she’s always trying to get them to play.

Eggroll would do well in a home by herself or with another playful cat or dog to keep her company. She’s ready to find her forever home today.

She is spayed, FIV/FeLV negative, up to date on vaccinations, and has received flea/parasite preventative/treatment as needed.

If you would like to adopt Eggroll, please fill out an adoption application here. The adoption fee is $85 to help subsidize the cost of veterinary care.

From Linda Lee:

Ziggy is a very friendly indoor-outdoor cat, mostly grey, with white markings, missing from the 4200 block of Osage.  If you have seen him (or can capture him), please contact his owner (sarah.e.lopez [at] gmail.com) and also email me back (lml3 [at] verizon.net). I don’t think he’s wearing a collar.  Possible that he’s been picked up by someone, or may be trapped inside a building/basement, or injured. -LL
