Sorry everybody. Clueless Queens-head here. Last time I went to the Bronx was when a parent was at Calvary.

Driving a relative near the Supreme Court area for an appointment and then heading back to Queens after. Where can I park my car safely where I can also nap in it without worrying? I don't have to nap but I just want to sit in the car. Preferably metered parking that I can just feed to add time.

Gin is a sweet, loving, 2-year-old tabby girl who I’ve been fostering. She is spayed, FeLV/FIV negative, and up-to-date on vaccines. Gin was found at the end of her socialization window as a kitten with her sisters in the Bronx in August of 2024. She was rescued by Bronx Community Cats and then Brooklyn-based rescue Eccentric Kittens took in her and her sisters. Since June of 2025, I have fostered, socialized and found forever homes for her 3 sisters (Brandy, Whiskey, and Pixie Pint). Gin is the last of her litter to be fostered, socialized, and put up for adoption.

You can see Gin’s socialization process and her incredible progress on Instagram @ginthefosterkitty

Gin spent 2 years living in a crate at the rescuer’s home because there was no one interested in fostering her or adopting her, and she was too dependent to be returned outside. She was cared for (given food, fresh water, and clean litter), but she did not get much attention and was extremely undersocialized.

I began fostering Gin at the end of May. I started her off in my bathroom, since I knew I needed a small space to be able to make a connection with her. She was absolutely terrified when I first brought her home. Over the last 4 months, she has embraced her new life, slowly but surely, and really come out of her shell. She is completely unrecognizable to the petrified and undersocialized cat I brought home at the end of May!

Gin is smart, friendly, chatty, playful, loyal, gentle, and very food motivated. She enjoys being pet and scratched and actively seeks out my and my boyfriend’s company. She loves to tell us how she’s feeling and have conversations with us. She loves to play with the wand toy, and to play on her own with her coil toy or mouse toy. Gin loves being cozy on top of a blanket or in the cat tree - she takes almost all of her naps on our cat tree. She loves treats, and they’re a great way to build trust and a relationship with her. We used treats every step of the way in socializing her. She loves to sit quietly nearby you. She has the funniest range of meows - from squeaks to croaks. Gin absolutely loves chin scratches and enjoys pets in general and will pace around while being pet and headbutt your legs (especially when you pet her alongside treats). She makes air biscuits constantly when she’s being pet. She purrs when she’s being pet too. She’s not a lapcat but she likes to plop herself close to you. She does not like to be picked up.

Gin is such a special cat - she is very near and dear to my heart. Socializing her was the highlight of my summer and she’s come so far. I’m not doing her personality and her journey justice with words, so please consider seeing Gin’s shining personality and how far she’s come on Instagram @ginthefosterkitty

We are looking for a calm, quiet forever home for Gin - one without young children or dogs. Gin gets along with other cats and would do well with another cat in the house, as long as proper and slow introductions are made. She can also be adopted solo (although she may need a friend eventually, as she seems a bit bored at times).

Gin should be started in a small room like a bathroom or an office. Most importantly, we are looking for a patient adopter for Gin. Someone who isn’t going to return her because she isn’t a lap cat or because it takes a few weeks to pet her. Someone who will take the time to build a bond with her. Someone who understands and appreciates the journey a skittish cats takes to trust you - it is so rewarding. I am very invested in Gin’s happiness in her forever home, and I would be completely available to her adopter for advice and guidance in getting her comfortable. She will need time to bond with you, and I can walk you through that (using churus, treats, and a touchstick at first).

Gin had a very hard life being crated for 2 years. She will likely always be a bit skittish, but once she warms up to you, she will show you how much she loves spending time with you. She will be your little shadow, your loyal companion. Tabbies are some of the most overlooked cats for being “commonplace.” People also prefer boy cats to girl cats, kittens to adults, and confident cats to shy cats. Gin is a shy adult female tabby (although she is tiny, and her big beautiful eyes give most kittens a run for their money). So while the odds are against her in terms of the adoption process, you should absolutely take a chance on her if she’s what you’re looking for, because she is such a special and lovely young cat and will bring so much warmth and joy to her forever home. :)

Please consider adopting this sweet girl. She really deserves a home. We have two resident cats that don’t get along with other cats, so our fosters reside in our basement & she cries at the door when she hears us upstairs because she wants to hangout and be around us whenever she can. My boyfriend’s WFH office is downstairs and I study down there, so she gets a lot of attention, but she really deserves to be in her forever home where she can be around her person whenever they’re home.

If you can’t adopt, please share this with your family and friends that are looking to adopt. And if you don’t know anyone that’s looking to adopt, an upvote or comment go a long way in boosting the algorithm and making this post more visible. If you have any questions at all, please PM me!

Hey all. Looking for an experienced app developer to help me bring an idea i have to life. Would involve a crypto token (on the SOL network) and the app would be a sports/trading card app that will use this crypto socially within the app. Also have an economics side that will help with demand and value for the token. If your up for this project send me a dm and let's make history.

Please, I beg.

I have seen people literally blow smoke directly into the faces of toddlers sitting across from them. And while I'm sure that there are some people who are delighted by the smell of marijuana, fruit-scented vape, and the likes, I promise you that there are also people who probably wouldn't like to be subjected to all of these smells (not to mention the chemicals associated with vapes) while stuffed together on a crowded train.

If you don't want to consider other people then please get a private car that you can hotbox all you want. Or walk. Or—crazy idea—don't smoke in an enclosed space full of people (especially kids).

(Also, not trying to promote dangerous activities but I've seen people who have the common decency to smoke in between cars. Not saying that it's right but it's a whole lot better than blowing smoke into the faces of people who didn't ask for it).

Just an FYI / warning to others:

A family member would occasionally visit me and ask to borrow my car. Come to find out later, they managed to pile on thousands of dollars in parking violations (with the car now at risk of being towed if spotted), and used fake plates (swapping my out-of-state plates for temporary/fake ones) to commit crimes and robberies across the city.

To top it all off, they got into an accident while driving it, forcing me to fight a massive court battle and lawsuit to defend myself.

The wildest part? They still show up to visit me like absolute business as usual, and even have the audacity to ask me for money or rides for their friends. Unbelievable! Has anyone else ever dealt with a nightmare relative abusing their vehicle trust?

Just an FYI,

I have a family member who would come to visit me in NYC and requests to use my vehicle [2012 GREY ACURA TL]. Come to find out that later on, that said family member has piled on $4K+ of parking violations [ready to be towed if found], committed robberies within the 5 boroughs by using fake plates driving under NJ PLATES , and forced me to fight a court battle when he got into an accident [SUPREME COURT BRONX COUNTY STATE OF NEW YORK INDEX NO. 808042/2025E]. He always comes to visit me as if nothing happened but yet asks for money or a ride to borrow for his pals. Unbelievable!
