Lawndale, Developer Grapple With New Expansion By Haleemon Anderson With critical deadlines looming, a proposed retail development at Hawthorne and Manhattan Beach boulevards took center stage at this week’s City Council meeting. The sale and redevelopment of the 1.37acre space is currently under the direction of the Arroyo Seco Development Group, since December 2015. The developer is charged with delivering a letter of intent from a restaurant by the September 3 deadline. The council has made it clear that it expects a family style, sitdown restaurant, although no specific vendor was mandated. Representatives of Arroyo Seco were on hand Monday to update the council. Steve Boss, principal representative, said the agency is in the midst of an aggressive tenant search. Boss said at least 20 restaurants have expressed interest and of those, eight are sit-down venues. “There is plenty of tenant interest,” said Boss. Nevertheless, Boss explained the complications involved in nailing down the particulars of this deal. He said site-planning options are heavily dependent on what vendors require to take up tenancy. And, inevitably, the councils’ specifications must take precedent. The council has envisioned the location as an attractive gathering place with outdoor seating, and modern architecture. Boss said the south-west corner space is in a population dense area and its location is a strength. But bringing in a “synergistic tenant mix” is the challenge. He explained that the trend in dining is toward “fast-casual.” These kinds of eateries can be more cost effective rent-wise, than large, sit-down spaces because of their quick turnover potential. He asked the council to remain patient and open-minded as he and his team continue to vet prospects. “We are going to lock up the best tenant proposal we can,” said Boss. “We absolutely want to deliver what the city and residents want.” Mayor Robert Pullen-Miles confirmed that, beyond the family restaurant, none of the other specifics are set in stone. He said there is precedent for modification to the original plan. “Hotels in this area have a 98-percent occupancy rate,” said Pullen-Miles, speaking about high-volume special events. “We may want to re-think a hotel.” Pullen-Miles, as well as other council members have been vocal about the revenue potential of the NFL franchise coming to Inglewood. That deal finalized just several months ago. When an agreed upon plan is reached, the city will sell the property to Arroyo Seco, who will develop the property to the agreed upon specifications. Lawndale stands to benefit from property and sales taxes from retail tenants in the new space, but not from the property sale. That’s because the sales revenue will need to be returned to the state, in a somewhat unwieldy formula that amounts to a payback for past redevelopment funding. The state dissolved redevelopment agencies a few years ago, replacing them with “successor agencies” and creating a new revenue platform. City Manager Steve Mandoki explained that the Council acts as the successor agency, handling the business of the dissolved redevelopment agency and dealing with financial matters related to dissolution and other prior redevelopment matters. Several community members expressed misgivings with the project. Steve Koonz was especially concerned about conflict with another nearby community fixture. “Where is the loyalty to Spires,” he said, referring to the long-standing family eatery, just across the corner from the proposed development. Another resident, Monica, suggested Arroyo Seco may not have a good pulse on the youth market. “What millennials really want is activities,” she said. “You should be developing something recreational.” She also pointed out that youth like to frequent specialty restaurants, with more of a trendy appeal. Councilman Jim Osborne brushed aside suggestions from the audience that the council acted without input, saying, “The Council held a community meeting and the room was packed. A sit-down family restaurant—that was the consensus.” Two local developers also made comments before the council, seeking clarification on the RFP process. One asked for clarity on why his group was not chosen, saying his offer was in line with the appraised value of the location. The other developer said his company was still interested in the project and is prepared to buy the property outright. Mandoki, in prepared notes, indicated three finalists, Arroyo Seco along with Festival and Frontier, were interviewed by staff. Arroyo Seco was selected by the Successor Agency. The company has an exclusive negotiations agreement (ENA) with Lawndale which expires in November. In the bi-monthly safety report, Lieutenant John Hoking reported an officer was injured and a suspect shot after the suspect crashed a car head-on into the officer’s service vehicle. The suspect was injured when the officer fired at him as he attempted to get away. The investigation is ongoing. On August 3 a man was arrested for vehicle theft. The man was refused an oil change on a car the proprietor believed stolen. The suspect attempted to get away by stealing another car on the premises. The council agreed to continue two items, regarding park development fees and the city’s license agreement with the farmer’s market, until next meeting. The remaining eleven Consent items were passed with unanimous approval. Public hearing was opened on two agenda items. Lawndale’s congestion management program (CMP) report was confirmed and approved unanimously. The city’s disaster and local hazard mitigation plans met with public comments requesting plans specific to Lawndale. Mayor Robert Pullen-Miles asked if a handsized emergency-preparedness guide could be developed for the community. Councilman Jim Osborne said that self-reliance is key in being prepared, adding that stock-piling water and food and keeping supplies refilled is vital. The Council took action to enhance Veteran’s Day observances in the city, approving funding for a provisional installation on the library lawn to honor local veterans on the upcoming November 11 holiday. The $6500 budget was approved unanimously and will cover staffing, licensing agreements, and memorabilia and supplies for the recognition event. The Lawndale City Council will hold its next meeting on Tuesday, September 6 as the first Monday of the month falls on Labor Day. • Page 2 August 18, 2016 Finance Classifieds The deadline for Classified Ad submission and payment is Noon on Tuesday to appear in Thursday’s paper.

(BPT) - By now, we’ve all heard about Brexit - the term used to describe Britain’s exit from the European Union - and a serious decision that will play a crucial role in the overall health of the global economy for months and possibly years to come. On the flip side, there are some immediate affects that could be great for your personal economic situation. As the dust settles, consumers are set to experience a unique economic landscape. Most consumers, in one way or another, should understand the impact Brexit is having on their finances and assets. It isn’t all doom and gloom - understanding how Brexit affects the average consumer can give you an advantage. Here are five areas you should pay attention to following the Brexit. Housing U.S. mortgages rates are expected to remain low, if not decrease slightly due to Brexit. Uncertainty will drive lower rates with less variance, creating a buyer’s market. “Mortgage rates are likely to soon fall close to the all-time lows that prevailed in late 2012,” says Alan MacEachin, Navy Federal Credit Union corporate economist. “Homeowners should assess whether refinancing would make sense for them.” What’s more, prospective home buyers should be aware of the lower costs for financing their purchase. Since the housing crisis, rates have been extremely low. What this means for you: Own a home? See if you can refinance your mortgage to a lower rate. This could save you money over time. Still renting but in the market for a new home? Partner with a trusted lender to check the rates. If you don’t have enough money for a down payment, look into 100 percent financing options, like the HomeBuyers Choice mortgage from Navy Federal Credit Union. You could get into your new home with no money out of pocket. Use Your Plastics Make the most of Brexit-influenced pricing by using your credit card as your primary form of payment. When traveling, your card will offer a better exchange rate than banks or exchange kiosks. However, “Make sure you’re using a credit card that waives foreign transaction fees,” says Randy Hopper, vice president of credit cards at Navy Federal. “Otherwise, the advantages of the exchange rate could be lost entirely.” Hopper added that U.S. interest rates are likely to stay lower for longer as a result of Brexit, “meaning there’s a reduced likelihood that the interest rate on most credit cards will increase anytime soon.” What this means for you: Use your credit card when traveling overseas. To avoid foreign transaction fees, choose a card from a financial institution that doesn’t charge them, like Navy Federal. Ripe For Auto Loans Consumers have something to celebrate when it comes to auto loans. Considering the average age of a used car is now at 11.4 years, a new car that requires little maintenance, combined with the low rate environment, may prompt you to take a test drive on that car you’ve been eyeing. “The key factor here is that rates will remain lower for longer. I expect auto sales to remain high this year, considering rates consumers are getting,” MacEachin said. What this means for you: Do your research. It may be time to upgrade your car, and there has never been a better time to do it. Run the numbers with a Car Affordability Calculator, so you can see what impact rates have on your monthly payments. Many financial institutions also offer auto loan pre-approvals, so you can shop with confidence. Saving For Retirement Consumers years away from retirement have plenty of time to recover from any losses Brexit may cause. For those closer to retirement, it may be a good time to check on your investments and overall retirement plan. Form a solid plan of action with your financial planner to safeguard your investments from any market volatility. What this means for you: This is a good reminder for those saving for retirement to check up on your investments. Your financial planner will be able to provide advice that matches your retirement plan and help guide you through these times of economic uncertainty. Got The Travelbug? This One’s For You! Have you ever had the desire to visit the UK? Now might be the time. The exchange rate will decrease the cost of vacationing in the UK, as everything from meals to hotels to clothing will become more affordable. British airline fares may also decline relative to American carriers. “The value of the British pound has dropped sharply as a result of the Brexit vote, which means the cost of a vacation in Britain would be about ten percent cheaper than it would have been just a few weeks ago,” MacEachin says. If you are flying a British or European carrier, be sure to check in with your airline before flying. Following Brexit, there is some uncertainty on how UK carriers will adjust. What this means for you: London may be calling, so check out your travel budget and compare the pound to the U.S. dollar. Search for hotels, airfare, and entertainment at lower costs. Due to the low credit card rates, it may also be a good time to check around for any travel rewards cards. Bottom line: The Brexit affect is only just beginning and the long-term view is that it could create some market volatility. But for the immediate future, you can take advantage of low rates on consumer loans, in addition to credit card exchange rate, and travel prices. The time is ripe for making moves, especially if you’re buying or refinancing a home, in the market for a new car, moving to using credit cards, especially overseas, or more specifically in the U.K. Cheers mate! • August 18, 2016 Page 3 Police Reports Hawthorne Happenings Mon 8/1/16 to Sat 8/6/16 ROBBERY S INGLEWOOD AV/W ROSECRANS AV Mon 8/1/16 13:11 Property Taken: SMALL BLACK PURSEUNKNOWN BRAND, SOCIAL SECURITY CARD, U.S. IMMIGRATION CARD-UNKNOWN NUMBER BURGLARY – RESIDENTIAL 13100 S RAMONA AV HOUSE Mon 8/1/16 11:58 Property Taken: (1)5GALLON JUG WITH MISC.

My dear wife and I have spent the last week seeing the sights in our 49th state. We decided to do the trip on our own and not do the “tour thing”. We have found everything to be a little higher in price up here. Not a lot of rental cars, hotels or restaurants to choose from so they cost about 50% more than what we are used to paying down there in the “lower 48”. But it has been worth every penny. They call this the last frontier and we can see why. Wide open undeveloped land for as far as you can see for hundreds of miles. If everything is BIG in Texas, everything is Giant in Alaska. The mountains are everywhere when you can see them through the clouds. It has been sunny, drizzly, cloudy, cool, warm and everything in between. With 700,000 residents, Alaska only has about seven times the population of Hawthorne but has 663,000 square miles in area for its people to live in compared 5.5 for our city. Alaska has twice the land compared with Texas. Diving this vast state you see God’s creation and not so much of man’s footprint. Travels Remember the days when grandpa and grandma would come home from a trip and set up the slide projector in the living room to show their travel pictures? There would be slide after slide of beautiful scenery but everyone would be dozing off while they explained all the different places they visited. I don’t wish to bore you with tales of our travels. Since everyone has a cell phone now, we can come home with literally thousands of electronic images to share with friends and family. I’ve learned that even my own children are really not interested in seeing their mother pose in front of one of our national treasures. I will however share that we were one of the lucky 30% of visitors to Denali National Park that actually got to see the tallest mountain in North America, Mount Denali, “the Great One”, which was known as Mount McKinley up until last year when President Obama and congress changed its name back to its CASH REGISTER, US CURRENCY, LOTTO TICKETS, BLACK BACKPACK Method of Entry: UNKNOWN BURGLARY – RESIDENTIAL 2000 W 115TH ST HOUSE Thu 8/4/16 11:03 Property Taken: CD PLAYER, Cuff links Method of Entry: PRIED POE: SLIDING WINDOW Entry Loc: FRONT BURGLARY – RESIDENTIAL 4600 W 132ND ST OTHER Thu 8/4/16 13:48 Method of Entry: UNKNOWN BURGLARY 4200 W 118TH ST Thu 8/4/16 13:36 BURGLARY 12500 S PRAIRIE AV OTHER Thu 8/4/16 16:05 Property Taken: SAMSUNG GALAXY X6, REBEL T-5I CANNON, CAMELBAK, TRIPOD WITHIN THE CASE Method of Entry: OTHER BURGLARY – RESIDENTIAL 4000 W 137TH ST APARTMENT/CONDO Thu 8/4/16 23:25 Property Taken: 55” SONY 4K FLAT PANEL TV Method of Entry: UNKNOWN BURGLARY – RESIDENTIAL 3800 W 130TH ST HOUSE Thu 8/4/16 22:29 Property Taken: LARGE BAG OF PAPER PLATES, LARGE BOX OF MISCELLANOUS PLASTIC SILVERWARE, 55” VIZIO SMART TV, SONY PLAYSTATION 4, 4 MISCELLANEOUS PS4 GAMES, SET OF TOWELS, SOCIAL SEC CARD, SAMSUNG GALAXY 4 TABLET Method of Entry: OPENED POE: SLIDING WINDOW Entry Loc: FRONT ROBBERY W 119TH ST/S ACACIA AV STREET, HIGHWAY, ALLEY Sat 8/6/16 01:21 Property Taken: IPHONE 6S PLUS WITH GOLD CASE, BLACK VANS SHOES W I T H W H I T E B OT T O M W I T H ORTHODICS ROBBERY 13700 S HAWTHORNE BL LIQUOR STORE Sat 8/6/16 03:43 Property Taken: (3) CARTONS OF NEWPORT CIGARETTES, $100 IN US CURRENCY ROBBERY 11500 S HAAS AV STREET, HIGHWAY, ALLEY Sat 8/6/16 19:37 Property Taken: ROSE GOLD IPHONE 6S • original Native American name. Wild life is all over here but if you decide to come up here get a good set of binoculars or a good telescopic camera because the bears, caribou, mountain sheep, sea otters, sea lions, and bald eagles are mostly a long distance away from your car, boat or shuttle bus. We did see a couple of eager beavers cutting down some tall trees right along one of our hiking trails. I would say they were more like loggers chewing through 12” diameter trees with their teeth. Valdez In 1989, the Exxon Valdez, the giant oil tanker, was placed on auto pilot carrying over one million gallons of oil out of this village after filling up here where the great Alaskan pipe line ends. The ship’s captain did not realize that his auto pilot was on when it hit a shallow reef about 25 miles out in the Prince William Sound. The cleanup from the spill took years but there is no visible environmental damage to be seen and the US government has taken many steps to prevent a spill from ever happening again. The other event that Valdez is known for is the 1964 Earthquake. It registered 9.2 on the Richter Scale. It sent a tsunami down the west coast of North America. I was living in Crescent City, California when that title wave wiped out the entire down town of our small community on that fateful Good Friday, March 24th, 1964. It was the largest title wave ever to hit the continental United States. Hawthorne and the World We met a young couple from Switzerland on our glacier cruise ship yesterday and was sitting having pizza and a “cold one” back in a small “hole in the wall” here in Valez last evening. A Beach Boys song came on and I asked our new friends if they had heard of SpaceX or Tesla in Switzerland. Not only had they heard of Tesla and X but their father had put money down to purchase a Tesla car. They knew of Elon and Hawthorne. Hawthorne IS world famous. (By the way, the cold ones were pretty good. Even if the weather is in the 60’s, damp and cloudy, a cold one is always good.) • Email me at [email protected].

Reviewed by Katrena Woodson, Teen and Young Reader Librarian, El Segundo Public Library • Film Review “Pete’s Dragon” is What a Family Movie Should Be– Magical By H. Nelson Tracey for www.cinemacy.com It’s a travesty that the description ‘family movie’ has become categorically marooned by studios and the public alike as a juvenile and tasteless affair. Animated movies aside, the subgenre is no longer seen for its potential: to enrich the lives of all those who watch it, provide a nourishing dose of spectacle to the wide-eyed young audiences and sincere delight to the parents and older folks who accompany them. “Pete’s Dragon,” now playing in theaters and the latest of Disney’s live-action remakes, has exactly the type of magic that’s been missing from the big screen. Admittedly, I haven’t seen the original version, one of Disney’s less-branded properties, so I can only speak to how the current film stands up. The title is a reference to our protagonist, Pete (Oakes Fegley), an orphaned boy who lives deep in the woods, alone with the green dragon, and for years has avoided human companionship. I expected the film to wait a long time to reveal the titular dragon as most movies would, these characters make the story come alive without lowering the bar. Time and time again the film respects our intelligence as viewers and develops with a certain grace that never takes us out of the story. It’s amazing that something simple and well-executed feels like a marvelous revelation in this case and I’m happy to have experienced it. Impressively, the film avoids being easily diverted into overused tropes. From the moment the protagonists are established as loggers and rangers, I was waiting for the inevitable heavy-handed environmental message that always feels hypocritical coming from a major studio. As we learn more about Pete, I was ready for a certain orphan backstory that you’ll think has to be employed. But the film is above all that, it never succumbs to the on-the-nose mentality. Instead, these themes of wilderness/nature and mankind’s interference stay subdued knowing that within the context, all audiences are mature enough to understand what’s at stake. Most of all, this is a beautiful story about what it means to grow up, perhaps the perfect How to Train with a T-Rex and Win 8 Gold Metals by Michael Phelps. that is sure to catch your eye. This book is sure to be an instant winner with sports fans from age 4-10. Second, Weatherford wrote the picture book Jesse Owens Fastest Man Alive, as a poetic tribute to Jesse Owens’ extraordinary performance at the 1936 Berlin Olympics. The narrative flows smoothly and allows readers to tag along with Owens on his journey from America to Berlin, Germany in the hopes of winning an Olympic medal. This is a time when racial tension was high in Germany due to the rise of Hitler and the Nazi party. The text emphasizes this tension with lines such as “Hitler does not want your kind here” giving readers a look into the past and the extra troubles Jesse had to face. The artwork appears slightly grainy and is reminiscent of old-time photographs. The illustrations capture the feelings of movement, speed and determination. At its heart though, this is an uplifting story of triumph and a phenomenal Oakes Fegley is Pete in ‘Pete’s Dragon.’ Courtesy of Disney PetesDragon ESH. Katrena Woodson. but instead he’s introduced and shown right from the get-go, a nice device that reminds us this is their story, not the story of the outsider townspeople we will soon meet. Yes, the dragon is shown early on, but its enchantment continually grows as stakes are raised. This introduction works as a way to immediately put us on our protagonist’s side: while the outsiders nearby don’t believe in such creatures, we as an audience do. These outsiders are a well-cast ensemble of familiar actors, all living in small town U.S.A. Bryce Dallas Howard is Grace, the no-nonsense forest ranger who’s never seen a dragon. Her fiancé Jack (Wes Bentley) and brother-in-law Gavin (Karl Urban) are loggers encroaching upon the forest. Oona Laurence plays Jack’s daughter, Natalie, and continues to prove herself as one of the greatest child actors currently working, in this touching supporting performance. Lastly, the legendary Robert Redford plays Grace’s wise father, Meacham, who reflects the movies wisdom with a reverence that can only come from cinema’s finest, in a role that likely was tailor-made to fit to him. Aside from Bentley’s character, who we don’t get too much exposure to, this entire ensemble shines in their respective roles, and each one is given the opportunity to grow as a character thanks to the adventure they experience. There’s no need for crude humor or pandering kid jokes, but instead theme for the genre. There’s even a feeling reminiscent of Room, one of last year’s finest entries, in the protagonist who similarly enters society for the first time, and while the rest of us can relate to the emotion of holding onto the past while life changes so fast, rarely can a movie so smoothly depict this. It offers an easily comprehensible storyline while also layering in meaningful themes to be understood differently by the many age groups who may all relate to varied experiences. And on another note, only because I can speak about it, the 3D in this movie provides to noticeable enhancement, so it isn’t worth the extra upcharge. The movie works great by itself, and I invite moviegoers of all ages and interests to experience this treat; check your cynicism at the door and let the wonder and magic take you as it did for me. At a time when it feels like compassion is being shortchanged in both the world at large as well as my own personal experience, “Pete’s Dragon” is an adventurous and triumphant return to those joyous feelings that make the world feel like a better place. Let this film serve as a benchmark for what a family movie can and should be: an emotional embrace of heartwarming adventure from start to finish. “Pete’s Dragon” is rated PG for action, peril, and brief language. 102 minutes. Now playing in theaters nationwide. • August 18, 2016 Page 5 Lakeshow Rallies Past Showtime By Joe Snyder In the final game of last Saturday in the Hawthorne Parks and Recreation Youth Basketball Division IV (ages 13-14) action at Betty Ainsworth Gymnasium, the Lakeshow and Showtime had a thrilling see-saw battle. In the end, the Lakeshow used a fourth quarter rally to topple Showtime 40-38. The win gave the Lakeshow a firm hold of second place at 5-2.

Political parties not only argue with each other, but they also fight within their ranks. Turn on the news and bickering is everywhere. Click on any internet story and you’ll read through pages of angry comments. Despite all the noise, however, Americans truly are more united than divided. And one of the issues that unites all kinds of Americans is supporting our veterans. In fact, it’s part of a long tradition that goes back to the founding fathers, and there are plenty of ways you can reach out and show your appreciation as well. A tradition of honoring heroism. In 1782, George Washington issued orders to honor soldiers who showed exceptional distinction by awarding them the Badge of Military Merit. Now called the Purple Heart, it’s given to men and women in uniform who have been injured or killed in combat or captivity. As the oldest medal currently in use, over 1.7 million have received the honor. Ordinary people giving. Millions of Americans have shown their support for veterans by donating their “Despite all the noise, however, Americans truly are more time and financial support to organizations ADS CLASSIFIEDS united than divided.

As a result, the unemployment rate among veterans has been halved. Helping vets tell their story. A highly effective way to help vets reconnect with people and get a hold of the confusing emotions they experience when coming home is to allow them to tell their story. Many organizations, colleges and community groups have set up programs that teach veterans the skills they need to find their voice and tell their story. Professionals volunteering their time. All wondering how they can help, thousands of professionals such as lawyers, accountants and career coaches have reached out to volunteer their time. Because free legal and financial advice is invaluable to help veterans navigate the world they return to, this kind of assistance is incredibly important. Inspired by the outpouring of support, many Americans wonder what they can do to help. Veterans organizations like the Purple Heart Foundation provide emotional, physical, educational and financial support for veterans and their families. In addition, the Purple Heart Foundation gives people the opportunity to volunteer, donate their vehicles or household items, or make cash contributions as a way of thanking veterans for the sacrifice they made.

Lucy enjoys playing with all sorts of toys including feathers, balls and track balls. Wrestling and running around with other cats is one of her favorite activities. After Lucy is worn out, she’ll come sleep with you and show off her belly so that you will rub it. With her energetic personality, she definitely needs to be in a home with other kitties. Lorelai was discovered on the loading dock of a grocery store with her mother and four siblings when she was four weeks old. She is a lovely tortie kitten with a strikingly beautiful face, and is sweet and playful too! Lorelai would love to be adopted with one of her siblings; a brown tabby brother, a black brother, an orange tabby sister or a buff tabby sister. Lorelai is a mini version of their tortie mom who is very sweet and also available for adoption. There is a mellow dog and other cats in her foster household and Lorelai co-exists nicely with everyone. Piper is about as sweet and petite as they come. She is super friendly and affectionate, and gets along great with other cats and children. Her previous owner never took great care of her, and she got pregnant at Lucy just four months old. He got divorced and decided he didn’t want poor Piper anymore, so he kicked her out onto the street (where lots of coyotes live)! Piper is a tiny girl weighing only 7 pounds full grown. People say she looks like a cute little kitten and we expect she will look like a little kitten for the rest of her life. Gabriel was found as a stray on the street when he followed neighborhood children home. He is a very sweet, friendly, affectionate young cat. At some point, Gabriel must have been part of someone’s family because he loves the comfort and security of the indoors and affection of humans. He is very clean, uses the little box always and is respectful of house rules. Gabe is a couch potato most of the day, but has a playful and curious side to him. He wants to socialize with other cats and needs practice doing so with a confident cat friend. Yes, Edith and her five siblings were named after the Downtown Abbey characters. Edith is puzzled why she was named after the loser sister. Edith is the bomb. She is sassy, independent and outgoing, and also a big love. Edith especially loves men that wear Aramis; she could nuzzle in their arms for hours. She can be a bit of a flirt and just really loves people and enjoys being held and loved. Edith is the only one of her siblings that fell in love with the dog in their foster home. She is still learning and growing, so if you want a lot of love and adventure, check her out. Cora is a tiny girl with a big heart. She was a bottle fed “Kitten Rescue Nursery” baby along with her five amazing siblings. Her foster mom says that made them extra special and lovey. Cora is very curious and loves to play with her brothers and sisters. Her favorite playtime activity is chasing a ball through the great box tunnel that came in the mail from Amazon. Of course this activity is most fun when her brother and sister play with her. She also likes climbing to the highest safe spot she can find to rest, so Cora likes to imagine she is a tree dweller. At her age, Cora needs to be adopted with her brother Matthew or sister Edith or into a home with another young cat. Matthew love, love, loves people and has been told that he is the most lovey of his siblings. He likes to play, run, jump and do all the normal things a little boy does, On Saturdays, we have adoptions from noon to 3:30 p.m. in Westchester at 8655 Lincoln Blvd. just south of Manchester Ave. and also in Mar Vista at 3860 Centinela Ave, just south of Venice Boulevard. Our website lists additional adoption sites and directions to each location. • Gabriel Cora but his favorite thing to do is to climb up in your arms and be held. Please stroke his cheeks, the top of his head, ears and nose, Matthew will then love you forever. This also usually makes him fall asleep, where he will be happy to stay for quite a while. He also enjoys when you play together with toys…feathers, balls, and any other toys you want to buy him. So if you want a lover boy kitty, he’s your man (or for now your boy). These cats and kittens are available for adoption through Kitten Rescue, one of the largest cat rescue groups in Southern California. All of our kitties are spayed/ neutered, microchipped, tested for FeLV and FIV, dewormed and current on their vaccinations. For additional information and to see our other kitties, please check our website www.kittenrescue.org or email us at [email protected]. Your tax deductible donations for the rescue and care of our cats and kittens can be made through our website or by sending a check payable to Kitten Rescue, 914 Westwood Blvd. #583, Los Angeles, CA 90024. Matthew Be kind. Save a life, Support animal rescue.
