People in the path of Hurricane Sandy -- Please stay safe & will your virtual animals need tending?

Please stay safe!

I just thought it might be good to see who might need their virtual animals (or something else on your street) tended to in case you are offline and need to tend to more important real-world concerns.  Spouses, parents, children, live furry/feathered/finned friends, property damage, etc.

Keeping my fingers crossed for all of you.

  • Mine might need tending. I'll post via iPad if my power goes out, and that'll mean I need help. Thanks for doing this! :D

  • This might be a good time to, if you are in the path of the hurricane and you have piggies, take the stick away so they can eat trees for a bit :)

  • I think we're just barely outside the projected area, but they're calling for snow and wind on Wednesday here and we don't have the most stable power in the area.  Feel free to tend to my piggies/butterflies if it looks like I haven't been on in a while, but otherwise it's not a big deal though, I can always hatch more. Hopefully we won't get much more than a flicker of an outage.

  • I don't think we'll get a direct hit, but the high winds may mean my power will be out for a large part of next week (judging from my utility company's recent performances in these situations).  I should know more later today or early tomorrow.

  • Yes, my front yard will need some TLC. I'm on a wood route and the wood can disappear fairly quickly if not maintained. Please leave a message if you've helped me out when / if I lose power! I will repair you in some form! Thank you!

  • Oh what a great idea.  we're a direct hit for the wind [Long Island NY] so there's a good chance I may lose power:(  of course there's always the 8' to 11' water surge but I don't think it will make it up my way or at least I hope not. 

    Thank you so much for starting such a great topic.

    @Pixel thanks for reminding us about the sticks, I wouldn't have thought about that !

  • Thanks Rain Cat.  I'm in the path of the storm.  I've asked my friend to watch my feeders for me in case i lose power.   I filled the feeders up this morning so they're ok for now. so far we have electricity but they are predicting winds of 85 mph today and the storm doesn't even hit till tonight.  so if you are out working on the quest, I'd be very thankful to anyone if you could  check my feeders  to make sure they have food in them. I have two feeders, one on each end of the street.  i have lots of trees you can pet and piggies to care  and butterflies to massage  so you can also work on the feat.  I have no sticks; my pigs and chickens are free-range.  :) Thank you for starting this thread.  (Cats - formerly Cats1524)

  • If you suspect you may be offline for days at a time, the simplest thing to do is to youth-ify all your pigs and stash them somewhere safe indoors.

  • I posted a route on Glitch Housing for glitchen like me who need their piggies tended to. Right now I'm the only one who's joined, but hopefully others will get on board soon. 

    The link is http://resources.grelca.com/route/364

    Stay safe!

  • I'm away from the shoreline, but it's raining and really windy. I saw some cute little birds being blown away. :(

    My piggies will be fine though-- thanks!

  • I updated all names here who said they may need help in the route. NO signpost is required. I will delete the route at a later date, after the storm. 

    Thanks for all who have offered to help!

  • RainCat, Thanks for this post. *hugs*

    As yet, I'm good but if you don't see me for a day or two, please do help feed my piggies, dear friends.

    Thanks so much again *HUGS*

    Cheers,

  • I'm quite fortunate in that my landlord's husband runs a tree removal company and we're next door to someone with power restoration priority.

    Stay dry?
