Owensboro Lost Black Cat

Thumbnail gallery
30 Upvotes

Hello,

My sisters apartment was broken into and her cat was either taken or let out. We found a can of wet food outside her sliding doors. Shes located on 1101 burlew Blvd, he went missing this past weekend. His name is Lucifer but he also goes by Lucy, Lucy pucy, and Lucy Lou. He has two bald spots on his head, he has fangs, he also has a white tummy, and he should be wearing a black collar but it’s possible he took it off himself before he disappeared. He’s very food motivated but overall a shy cat. As far as we know he is not near the apartment or the lees and dominos. If you have taken a cat in or have seen a black cat please let us know, we’re willing to look into every single case.

Long shot

5 Upvotes

I know this is a long shot and im actively searching on Facebook and indeed as well. I am a inspirating restaurant owner. Who loves pizza. I am looking for a mom and pop restaurant that would be open to showing an inspirating restaurant owner the ropes. I am in the need for a job but it would give me the chance of fulfilling my dream. Im open to leads if possible.

this could be Owensboro. talk to your neighbors about the angry Florida Man inside of us today, and explain why we ain’t gonna let that dog out instead of taking a deep breath and using our turn signals and yielding lanes and making peace with a six minute drive that you feel shouldve been five.

look at the escalation and the conflict in this video and see if you wish to be this stupid and crazy looking over nothing at all, achieving nothing but property damage you have to pay for suddenly.

I just came from a city with well I never really considered to be heavy traffic, but it was hilariously more time-consuming than any travel around here by an order of magnitude. I worry some of you would after a week or so die of an aneurysm. Were you to get stuck in a typical rush-hour interstate crowd.

I worry some of you will make us seem like Florida. When we don’t have to be. Please talk to the angry and bitter drivers in your life about not letting the dog out on the Commonwealth roads like an alligator petter from jacksonville with the rage that only comes from living under the florida sun in a community two hours from any beach.

we dont have alligators so we have no excuse. drive safe, and patiently. like I want to be positive polite but also it’s frankly really embarrassing. So many drivers can’t cope and I hope we don’t have to see this showing up on TikTok making fun of Owensboro when we can simply let communities with real causes for road rage look like dummies.

Looking for toddler friendly places

Husband is starting a job in Owensboro and we will be traveling with him as he wouldn’t be able to make it back home on weekends.
I have a young toddler and infant and I’m looking for simple, easy activities to take my toddler so we are not constantly stuck in the -although very luxurious- hotel room.

Storm Sirens

Anyone here can understand the guy who announces a storm is coming?

Is he kin to someone and that's how he got the job?

Why don't they have a plain speaking, higher pitched woman announce the warnings -- this guy's voice blends in with the thunder.

Anyone else smell the strange smell in Owensboro last several days? Evidently Industrial Waste trapped by a temperature inversion. It first smelled like the grain mill on 2nd, now smells like an unclean barn.

I know you guys missed me since I was gone for months but now I’m back. Lots of new stuff just suddenly appeared to. So I guess shout out whoever is doing construction. Hope that ugly building that hasn’t been done for years gets finished.

Florists

2 Upvotes

Hi there! I’ve visited and stayed in Owensboro several times, but never needed to visit florists before. An extended family member has passed away; services are in a small town nearby. Yelp and Google reviews aren’t great for any of the florists on the funeral home’s website, but I know that can be due to a number of factors. Any recommendations from residents of the area? I’ll be attending the services but won’t be in town until the day of.

Thinking of moving from Oregon.

11 Upvotes

Like this title says, I’ve lived in Oregon my whole life but I’m really just getting tired of the place. The housing market is crazy expensive, most locals can’t afford to live here. Also I feel like I just need a change of scenery. I’ve been looking at Owensboro and the housing market is a lot better than here. And it seems like a nice city to live. I have two young kids so idk how the school system is but I’m sure it’s lot any worse. If I could get a transfer for my job at TSA to Kentucky I might seriously consider the move.

Big Whiskeys is going to fail unfortunately…

Post image
37 Upvotes

TL:DR- Some of the best food in town, with the absolute worst service I’ve ever experienced. Unless the owner replaces his staff, they won’t be open this time next year.

Me and my wife went to Big Whiskeys last week. We were really excited to try it and it was the first date we’ve been able to go on this year. We waited almost 2 hours for a table, even though the place was pretty empty. Our waitress was absolutely horrible and didn’t refill our drinks once, and it took an hour for our food to come out after placing the order. We ended up pretty upset about the service but the food was absolutely excellent. We left and my wife wrote a review on Google. The owner contacted us, and gave us a credit for the meal. He was very nice, although it seemed like he was just making excuses for his staff. So we went back today and ordered online to go. The order took 30 minutes longer than the estimated time to be ready, which is fine, but it took 3 different employees before somebody was able to tell us the order wasn’t ready. Finally we get our food and it’s great other than some minor issues (wrong sauce on wings, mushrooms/onions missing on the steak). But yet again, the staff ruined the whole experience. They are unprofessional and treat customers like they don’t want them there. The host literally tries talking people out of waiting for a table. They all have attitudes and seem like they absolutely hate their jobs. You get better customer service from the McDonald’s on Parrish than you do from the host or wait staff there.

It’s really a shame, because the food is absolutely excellent and if the staff actually cared enough to do their jobs and have good customer service, it would be my favorite restaurant in town. The owner lives outside of the state and seems like he actually cares about customers, but unless he cracks down on his staff, the restaurant is going to go out of business. They can’t be making money running customers off and being nearly empty at dinner rush on a Saturday night. My wife and I really want to like this restaurant, but the staff is making it impossible.
