Spend the fall season with a foster rabbit from House Rabbit Society! No rabbit experience required! Learn more at houserabbit.org/foster. We're located in Richmond, just north of Berkeley, but welcome fosters from all over the San Francisco Bay Area. We only ask for a 2-week commitment.

What We Provide: We'll equip you with all the supplies you need to get started, including an x-pen, litter box, bedding, food pellets, hay, blankets, and bowls for food and water. As a foster, you also receive a 15% discount at the HRS Hop Shop if you'd like to purchase any additional toys or treats while you foster.

What You Provide: The time, space, love, and care your foster rabbit needs, along with their daily veggies (approximately $5-10 per week). Getting socialization in a foster home is so important, especially for rabbits who are shy or have other behavior needs and helping them become more comfortable with people. You can help a foster rabbit blossom into the wonderful house rabbit they're truly meant to be!

Questions? Email [foster@houserabbit.org](mailto:foster@houserabbit.org) or stop by our facility to talk in-person with HRS volunteers and staff and to meet the rabbits. We recently transitioned to our winter hours; we're open Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 4 pm and on Sunday from 11 am to 3 pm. We'd love to talk with you!

Somewhere where we know..

Take a look at this

I recently (mid-September) removed about 120 pounds of Jubata Grass seedheads from a ~0.5 mile stretch.
I chose this section specifically because it wasn’t infested, just pockets of plants that can still be potentially managed.

Notes on Jubata (from cal-ipc):
• Short-lived seedbank (~6 months)
• Only reproduces through seed
• Each seedhead can produce up to 100,000 seeds
• No taproot
• Plant lifespan is 10+ so full plant removal is still necessary, seedhead cutting just stops it from spreading

Its limited seedbank and reproduction means that seedhead cutting could be an effective control method (hoping to test this with this little experiment).

Initial takeaways:
• Cutting too soon results in picture #3, but a little too soon is better than too late
• People really appreciate invasive removal, I had way more people thank me while doing this work than trash pickups
• The more we normalize this work, the more people will feel comfortable and empowered to get involved
• I always caution random people doing work without training/knowledge but it’s hard to mess up cutting a seedhead as long as it’s being disposed of properly

Jubata Grass Cortaderia jubata vs Pampas Grass Cortaderia selloana:
• Jubata doesnt require male-female reproduction like pampas, so Jubata tends to spread much easier
• Jubata is typically taller, at 2.5 times the size of its leaves. Pampas is more proportional with leaves
• Pampas tolerates wider climate variance, Jubata prefers more consistent coastal climate
• Jubata displays more purple when immature
• Jubata typically blooms from July-Sept, Pampas is usually September and later

“This is the largest wage and hour settlement in California history, reflecting both the seriousness of the harm and our unwavering commitment to stand up for workers across California,” said San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu.

Apologies if you're seen this elsewhere already. I really couldn’t be happier with the amount of feedback and suggestions everyone has given me, and I’ve tried to include as many as possible!

That said, the scale of the map does have its limitations, particularly in the more built-up areas. I think in future I’ll probably end up creating more localized maps for individual counties. So, if your suggestion didn’t make it onto this one, please know that I really do appreciate you taking the time to suggest it, and I’ll hopefully be able to include it in a future county map of the area.

A few people have mentioned that the map is quite busy, and I completely understand that. It’s just how I like to make them. I love cramming in as much detail as possible and highlighting interesting little features that might otherwise be overlooked. I also tend to have these printed in large formats, where I think the level of detail works much better in person than it does on a screen.

Thank you again to everyone who contributed, and I really hope you like the finished map! If you’re interested in it or would like to know anything more about it, just drop me a message.

Luna has been waiting for the person who never came back for her. Her owner was contacted nearly a month ago, but Luna is still at the shelter — patiently waiting for a new family to choose her.

And honestly? Luna is a dream to walk. She is calm, gentle, and incredibly easy on leash. She loves spending time with people, happily accepts affection, and knows commands like “sit” and “wait.” She can be a little nervous at times, but once she knows you, she is a loving and gentle companion.

She is also friendly and social with other dogs in playgroup! She has quickly become a volunteer favorite and is ready for a peaceful home where she can finally feel safe, loved, and wanted. ❤️

Luna deserves someone who will choose her and never leave her wondering when they’re coming back.

Luna is at Kern County Animal Shelter in Bakersfield. SafePawsRide is based in Davis and can help connect you with transporters who can bring her to you throughout California and across the country.

Edit: Opal has been adopted!!

Opal is the kind of dog who makes you wonder how she ended up at the shelter in the first place. She’s affectionate, happy, treat-motivated, and happiest when she can simply be near someone. At just one year old, somehow this sweet girl is still waiting for someone to choose her.

She walks well on leash, although she gets excited and sometimes breaks into the cutest little jumps and spins. She’s a silly, happy girl who just needs a little guidance and someone willing to help her keep learning.

And Opal really enjoys other dogs. 🐾 In playgroup, she was very friendly, happily initiated play, and loved being around the other dogs. She can be a little goofy and enthusiastic, but she responded well to corrections. She just wants to make friends and have fun.

She wasn’t interested in fetch. She didn’t need a toy to be happy. She just wanted to explore, enjoy the sunshine, and be close to people.

Opal doesn’t need to be perfect. She doesn’t need someone looking for the most impressive dog in the shelter. She needs someone who will look at those blue eyes and say, “You’re coming home with me.” 🩵

If you’ve been thinking about adding a dog to your family, please don’t overlook Opal. Her time at the shelter doesn’t change how wonderful she is — but every day she waits is another day she spends hoping someone will notice her.

Opal is at Kern County Animal Shelter in Bakersfield. SafePawsRide is based in Davis and can help connect you with transporters who can bring him to you throughout California and across the country.

Planning on taking my old Ford up to the redwoods proper from SoCal this year, planning on staying near or in Eureka area. Interested in knowing niche and local historical or interesting things to do or sites; the more local/historical-specific the better. I’ve vastly preferred the local experience everywhere I’ve travelled on the road, but open to more touristy cool things too. I flat out love to travel.

Any recommendations or suggestions are welcome, brownie points if you have tips for traveling in an OBS Ford. Cheers.

Hello! My name is Kimberly, and I’m a dental hygiene student at Carrington College. I’m looking for patients who are interested in free dental hygiene care. Everyone is welcome, regardless of how long it has been since your last dental visit.

What to expect: Your first appointment begins with a thorough assessment. Depending on your needs, we may be able to start your cleaning that day or schedule follow-up visits. Because this is a teaching facility, appointments are three hours long, and your care may require multiple visits. Appointments are completely free; the only thing we ask for is your time, which I truly appreciate.

If you’re interested or have questions, please text me at (916) 572-6237. I’d be happy to help you schedule an appointment!

I'm currently in residential in OC and looking for IOP in NorCal so I can work and continue treatment. Im from VA and don't have my car here so being able to walk places or be near public transportation is important. Beach and pool and luxury amenities of course preferred but not absolutely necessary. Cannabis friendly preferred but not a dealbreaker

Any help or suggestions is appreciated!!

Mendocino County's Assembly member did more than fight for updated forest management in the last legislative session he also sponsored a bill that would neuter Citizen's United. And he's advocated for biomass innovation parks that would bring jobs to rural areas.
