A number of items posted recently in the forum have caught our attention. Maybe you can help:

• Phinneydoc found a non-working cell phone in the bushes at the southeast corner of 73rd and 1st. Contact info here.
• A couple with a baby due in August is looking for a nanny share arrangement with another family. Post a reply here.
• In a semi-related post, another family is looking for infant daycare recommendations in the Greenwood/Green Lake area or downtown.
• Lastly, a collarless brown cat was found this morning at the corner of 67th and Linden. Unfortunately, it was hit by a vehicle and did not survive, the poster tells us. Animal control was called to pick up the animal. If you think the cat was yours, you can contact the poster here.

Coral sent us this note about something she found:

As I was leaving for work this morning I found a carry on type travel bag in my garden on a parking strip at 77th, west of Greenwood. I don’t want to make assumptions about how it ended up there but if anyone is missing a bag I will be turning it in to the Police dept. after I get home around 6 pm. I briefly looked in the bag for ID. I saw a half a loaf of bread(?) an empty wallet and a credit card that did have a name on it.

If you think it’s yours, contact us and we’ll put you in touch with Coral. Otherwise, after 6 tonight, check with the police department.

Nickz writes in Comments that the dog has been reunited with its owner:

We are the neighbors of the people who found the dog. The owner contacted them and was reunited with the dog the same night it was found. The owner was house-sitting for his daughter on 78th St. It was a 13 year-old Wheaton Terrier. The owner could not figure out how he got out - he is apparently quite the escape artist.

By the way - the dog had a chip, which we took to the 24 hr. vet on Stone Way to get ID’d. However, the chip had no information attached to it. Please remember to send in the info once you get your dog’s chip implanted! In this case, the breeder said the info was sent in, but it obviously never was.

Kathy sent us this note:

I’m hoping you can post a lost dog notice on the blog. His tag says his name is Riley, and the address lists Woodinville. He’s an off-white, golden labra-doodle type mix.

We found him today on the 500 block of N. 79th. We are locking him in the garage overnight and will call the Humane Society in the morning, as our yard has no fence and we have two dogs.

Inquiries can be sent to jvasen@gmail.com or (206) 334-3661.

According to Janice at the Greenwoood Neighborhood Service Center, 8515 Greenwood Ave., N.:

This morning upon arriving at the Greenwood Neighborhood Service Center we came upon a child’s bike, clothes, sleeping bag and coat. We do not know where these item came from. They may have been abandoned by a homeless person. stolen or they may have been left as a give away.

Let Janice know if you know anything about these items. You can reach her at GreenNS@seattle.gov.
