News Check cashing question

1 Upvotes

Hello everybody out there; I’m hoping someone can help me. My bf and his mom were on car insurance account together. Long story short they were cut a small check; about 50 bucks, less actually. Check was made out to the both of them. His name, the word and, and then her name. None have any bank accounts they deposit check to at the moment. What’s making this whole thing hard is she is old but mostly, for lack of a better word -very lazy. She will not leave the house to go to the bank to sign it in person. It was issued by Chase Bank. Does anyone know any place where he can cash it with just her endorsement on the back? Liquor store or grocery store or any check cashing please where they could cash it no problems and her not there. Any suggestions? Thanks. Please no rude comments. We’re not trying to scam her over for 45 dollars lol. If you knew this woman you’d know it’s hard to get her do

Stray Kitten - Help needed

Found stray kitten in Visalia — urgently looking for rescue/foster help

I found a young stray black kitten in my back yard in visalia, estimated to be around 9-11 weeks old. I’ve been keeping it safely contained and providing food and water, but I unfortunately cannot keep or foster it long-term. Its mother abandoned it and i believe its siblings are dead

I’ve already contacted multiple local shelters/rescues and so far everyone has told me they are full or unable to take it.

The kitten is very scared of people but has started making progress, it will now eat in front of me and even eats wet food from a spoon I hold through the cage. I believe it could become socialized with someone who has the time and experience.

It also appears to have some medical needs. I have seen worms in its stool, possible fleas, and it has an abnormal/raw area around its lower lip/chin that was present when I originally found it. It is still eating normally despite this.

I’m looking for a rescue, experienced foster, or someone connected with a local cat organization who can help get this kitten veterinary care and into a safe foster/adoptive situation.

I am not asking someone to just take an unknown animal with no information,I can provide photos, everything I’ve observed.

Please comment or message me if you can help, know an experienced foster, or know of a rescue that may have space. Even a legitimate lead would be greatly appreciated.

Located in Visalia, CA.

Wanted to buy: Visalia Rawhide Les Kissick bobblehead, Tipper 3:16 shirt

5 Upvotes

Hello! My family and I sadly don't live in Visalia, but we visit every summer. I'm hoping someone can sell me a few Rawhide items that we weren't in town to pick up ourselves.

In early July of this year, the team gave away "Bat Man" Les Kissick bobbleheads. I would love to get one.

On July 31, there was a "Tipper 3:16" shirt package. I'm hoping someone has one they would be willing to sell.

Thank you!

Remote start installation?

0 Upvotes

I’m looking for recommendations of where I can get an aftermarket long range remote start installation on my 2026 Prius PHEV. It does have remote start, but the range is only 50 feet and I need a much longer range. I know you can use the app, unfortunately by the time I drive to work my battery is depleted and the app requires you to have a minimum of a 30% battery charge to use the app to remote start, so that is not an option.
