MADISONVILLE, OH (FOX19) - The Ohio Alleycat Resource Clinic held a kitten show for their new babies on Friday.

Every year at this time, local shelters are flooded with thousands of kittens.

This event is held to promote adoption and the importance of spaying and neutering your pets.

"We help supply food for our TNR colonies and we also just need supplies for our clinic and our rescue operation," said Emily Moore, board member.

Several guests brought toys and other kitten care items from their Walmart baby registry.

GLENDALE, OH (FOX19) - The Laws, Claims & Misc. Committee will meet Monday, May 16, 2011 at 7:00 pm to discuss a plan that will require anyone who decides to tear down and replace a building addition to replace it with one that is better looking.

The proposed amendment to Codified Ordinance 154.46(C)(2) has language from the solicitor that says "When replacing an addition to an existing building, the replacement shall be no less compatible with the existing building than the addition that is to be replaced."

This meeting will take place in the Village Office conference room located at 30 Village Square, Glendale, Ohio 45246.

This meeting is open to the public.

CINCINNATI (FOX19) - Volunteers from the Dow Chemical Company arrived in Avondale this afternoon to restore two prominent abandoned buildings on Vine Street.  Joined by an alligator and an Angolan python from the Cincinnati Zoo, 20 volunteers from the Reading plant enhanced 36 barricades with painted representations of windows and doors.  In addition to painting the buildings’ multiple windows and doors, volunteers removed 120 pounds of weeds and overgrown brush that made the property an eyesore in the community. 

The volunteers finished just before heavy rain rolled through the area.

This effort is part of Dow’s commitment to environmental stewardship and corporate citizenship.
