Alley Cat Cafe
Browncoat Cat Rescue
One of our most common questions is, “Where do the cats come from?”
They come from Browncoat Cat Rescue! AKA, BCR. BCR is a volunteer run organization that focuses on unwanted and abandoned cats in Ithaca and its surrounding areas. Volunteers create awareness within the community, and educate people of the importance of spaying and neutering. By working with committed foster parents, local veterinarians, and members of the community, we can empower feral cat colony keepers, and find loving adoptive homes for rescued cats.
BCR brings adoptable rescued kitties to the cafe, where they can socialize with people and other cats alike, and meet their future forever parent! It’s been a great way to spread awareness of cats in the community, as well as get these little ones the attention and homes they deserve.
The Cafe
Did you know the first ever cat cafe was in Taipei, Taiwan, in 1998? From there it spread to Japan, and quickly became popular since many people live in small homes that can’t house a cat. The concept since then has been popularized in many other countries – from Austria, Scotland, Canada, Australia and much much more! All over the world now, people seek the comfort of cats at cat cafes.
We also have been asked why BCR chose a cat cafe instead of an adoption center. Our mission is to create a sense of community; a place for people to come together with a common interest. Not only do we get cat-lovers, but we get coffee-lovers too! Amazing things happen when the two are combined, and the smiles left on peoples’ faces is so worth it to us. The cafe not only provides delicious drinks & fare, but also supports BCR and its cause.

Changes Cutting Studio
Changes was established downtown in the mid-80’s, was run out of a storefront on East State street until 1997, and currently occupies a second-floor loft on Aurora street, on the the east end of the Ithaca Commons.
Run originally by Lenny Randall, the business has been in the hands of Kim Sherwood Caso since 1991, during which time Changes has become a fixture of Ithaca’s business community.
Changes was conceived as a place to celebrate and support local music and art. The environment Kim and her staff have created is laid-back and funky, yet professional. Your ideas about looks and aesthetics are welcomed and appreciated, and time is taken to make sure you get the haircut you came for. With thirty or forty-five minute appointments, and colors lasting one to two hours, this is a place to relax and appreciate the floor-to-ceiling windows, rotating exhibits on the walls, music, and conversation.
Changes attracts to its intimate space a diverse clientele, from high school students to Cornell and Ithaca College faculty, local farmworkers and musicians as well as elected officials and technology and business people. At Changes, you get more than a ready-made, cookie-cutter style. You get the chance to have a personal exchange with your hairdresser.

If you need a new machine, don’t fall for brands that make cheap throw-away machines sold at chain and big box stores. Only a few manufacturers still make good-quality, long-lasting sewing machines. Janome is one of those brands. We have chosen to add new Janome machines to the store in good conscience. The machines are well-built, reliable, and easy to use. The high quality and 25-year warranty assure decades of service. SewGreen founder Wendy Skinner has opened a shop for new and old sewing machine sales and repairs.

My desire is to help you reclaim your agency in confronting any disease. Dietary medicine, appropriate exercise and lifestyle guidance, all central to this medicine along with acupuncture and herbal medicine, can greatly reduce and even eliminate pre-existing autoimmune conditions that make us more vulnerable to viruses.
In line with treating patients, my mission is to bridge an understanding between the science of classical Chinese medicine and COVID-19. I’m writing a series of short, interconnected pieces, beginning with the below links. Feel free to send me questions and comments.

The Relaxation Point
The relaxation point, commonly referred to as “The Relaxation Response”, is the moment when the body finds within itself an avenue or an ability to open up, unwind and let go. When this happens, pain cycles may begin to be interrupted, if even for a moment.
This moment, this happening, is the conscious or unconscious beginning of awareness to the self and the healing process.
In terms of massage as therapy, through Trigger Point Therapy, Kinesthetic Awareness through Movement, connective tissue work, general Swedish and other modalities, Joseph Karl Holmgren (LMT) seeks for this moment to begin within each client in hopes that finding the relaxation point may assist in their own personal healing, centeredness and self awareness for a better way of living.
