Fact: Cats don’t socialize the way dogs do. Which means cat people don’t have social outlets like obedience classes and off-leash parks where they can share stories about their furry children, find out who the best vet and/or pet-sitter in the area is, and lots of other useful things. This Meetup group is looking to change that. If you are an aficionado of the feline, rather than the canine, version of a family pet – and especially if you are owned by more than one cat – this is the place to get …

I look forward to meeting responsible bully breed owners that can restore the tarnished reputations these breeds have.

I have a Maltese mix, we call him a Meekapoo, who loves to be in the company of other dogs. He really doesn't discriminate against larger dogs, he loves them too, but I can be more relaxed when he's around the little guys, so he doesn't get inadvertently trampled on (it's happened before!). I'm sure there are other local small dog owners who want to get together, take a walk on the North County Trailway, or a stroll through FDR park or just a spin around the hood with some company. This is purel …
