Update:

Whiskas found a new home today! I'll miss her but am very excited for her and her new person.

The adoption was arranged by a wonderful cat rescue in Boynton Beach.

If you're looking to adopt a cat or help some out, these volunteers are wonderful and have lots of cats who need a new home.

I’m a sweet and petite senior cat who recently lost my beloved human, and now I’m searching for a new loving family to call my own. My temporary human friend has been taking great care of me, but I’m dreaming of a place where I can be the center of attention and shower you with all my love!

I might be a little over 10 years old, but don’t let my age fool you—I’m full of energy, affection, and personality! I’m a clean, well-mannered lady who loves sitting in your lap, cuddles, head scratches, and just being near you. I’ve been to the vet and, except for being FIV+, I’m in great health! Don’t worry—FIV isn’t scary at all. I’m symptom-free and still as sprightly as a kitten. It just means I should be an indoor-only cat and would do best as the only cat in the house or with other FIV+ kitties. I also get along just fine with dogs, and FIV isn’t something dogs or humans can catch!

If I could stay here, I would, but my current human already has two rescue cats, so they can’t keep me forever. Right now, I’m staying in a bathroom, and while I love the time we spend together, I’d really love a home where I can have more space to explore and snuggle.

I’ve been through a lot, but I have so much love and joy to give. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will warm your heart every day, maybe we’re the perfect match.

If you or someone you know can give me the forever home I deserve, please reach out. I can’t wait to meet you and start our new adventure together!

With love and purrs,
Whiskas

Looking for places not on the Ave for traditional breakfast. Loved Cristina’s but they’re long gone. No parking near the Ave so that’s out.

Hi all! I’m looking for peer support/support groups in the area on behalf of my grandfather. He’s currently the main caregiver for my grandmother who is dealing with a lot of health issues and I’d love to find him something local to provide support from people he can relate to.

Bonus points for groups that are all-male, male-focused, or those that are geared toward seniors. My grandfather is pretty averse to therapy for himself so I’m hoping this will be more his speed. Any guidance welcome, TIA!

Anyone know of any surf in Delray area next week? In town for work need a wave to take the edge off. Bodyboarding/bodysurfing/longboarding, frothing on anything .

It was a sad day when we lost the Delray Beach Mall, but at I assume most of you like me made the Boynton Beach Mall your new home.

Does anyone happen to remember the name of the CD/tape music store that was next to the Sears and across from the Kay-Bee Toys? I can't remember it for the life of me and it's driving me mad.

Edit: TY ALL, this is exactly what I wanted. so so helpful, excited to meet yall!!

Hi! 20s F. I'm moving to Delray soon and, per my title, would love some advice on where to meet people my age (recent college grads//young professionals) and with similar interests (I'm an athlete so health and wellness, nutrition, etc. also reading, cooking, baking). Maybe run clubs? Yoga? Reading groups?

...As a bonus, apartment hunting recs?

Thank you!!

Hey I’ll be visiting Delray Beach in October and I was wondering if there was a community track to run on? Thanks!

Hi everybody I've (26F) recently taken a job near South Military Trail and West Atlantic Ave and the current place that I am staying at is not working out so I'm wondering if anybody has any good insight into any possible apartment rentals (1/1) (2/1 highly preferred, hoping for my friend to roommate with me) in the area that are under $2,000 a month. Ideally I'm looking for something that's within 30 minutes of that intersection and would love any input on any good quality places around there. Thanks in advanced.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a quiet restaurant in Delray? Im arranging a business dinner of about 12 older folks and the hope is that we wouldn’t have to shout over a loud atmosphere. Thanks!

For those who don't know, Crown Wine & Spirits (also Crown Liquors) in Delray, Boca, Pompano, and sometimes Ft Lauderdale would host monthly wine tastings (sometimes beer tastings too, which were my favorite honestly) at a relatively low cost of $15 pp and they'd have 70+ wines available with vendors pouring wine from serving stations which were converted wine racks basically.

You could really have as much as you wanted as long as you were respectful and the vendors would tell you about each wine and there were a couple of small hors d'oeuvres too! They had a ~15% off sale for anything that you did choose to buy that night and the events were 2 hours long from 7:00 - 9:00.

I have never seen anything in my life that even comes close to resembling this, short of spending $100+ for tickets to an actual food and wine festival but honestly the events are so different that it's not really comparable.

There's no great point to this post other than to reminisce but hopefully I can jog some cheerful memories for people! Chime in if you have ever attended one of these festive occasions or have something to share!

Unfortunately these events ended when covid came about and have not returned. I found out about them in 2018 at some point and had a solid roughly 1.5 years of enjoyment with my friends.

Edit: in Delray it was the Crown off of Federal going North (I can't remember if the road already became 6th ave by that point?) but it was a great starting point if you wanted to go to The Ave afterwards

Thoughts on this Neighborhood? South of Atlantic / West of Swinton

I am Considering buying a home west of Swinton, in this general area. What are your thoughts on the neighborhood? I’m a 28M w a 28F fiancé. I’d be interested in living there for a while, but would either turn the home into a rental or sell if I had kids and wanted to be in a more family friendly area in 5 years or so.

Signs things are pointing up: See some brand new flipped homes, a lot of the homes have cute bones & are easy to picture being renovated. It seems like one of the few areas in South Florida with home prices below $500k that is only a 15 minute bike to the beach, and a short ride to a busy walkable commercial promenade.

Signs improvements may take a long time: a couple neighbors don’t care of their trash, loud music from cars & homes, seems like some low income people have been here for generations so they may be unlikely to cash out.

What is the holdup on this neighborhood being gentrified? It’s currently happening in instances but will it increase soon?

My dad still lives down here and I was wondering if I buy a car in Palm Beach area is it worth it? I’m just looking for a Toyota Nissan reliable and not that expensive. I’m just looking right now.

Fun Sports 7 on 7 Flag Football Tournmanent. Sun. 8/18 in Palm Springs.If it's not Fun, why play?

At least once a week for the past two months I've been receiving calls from businesses in Delray Beach trying to get in touch with Warwick. I finally found a registration for a business he started earlier this year, and in that registration his business's phone number is only one digit different than my work phone.

As far as I can tell, ever since he started that business he's been accidentally giving out my phone number instead of his. I've tried calling and texting him, my texts show as read, but have gotten no response from him and I still get his calls.

Normally this could be a fun setup to do some reverse crank calls, but the number that he's giving out is an emergency line for a hospital, so this is not a line that can be tied up.

I know it's a longshot, but if anyone in the area knows Warwick Claassen, please tell him to doublecheck that he's giving out the correct phone number for his business.

Hey guys so I just moved to Delray and our water has a yellowish tint. Our complex said to run hot water in all sinks and showers for 15 mins to flush out old water but that it’ll never be fully clear because this is how Delray Beach City water is . Is this true? Am I really gonna have to buy filters for my showers and kitchen sink? Never thought I’d experience flint like water in Florida smh.

Hi DRB. I’m visiting your town later this week with my two boys 7 and 9. Wondering if anyone could refer a guide for snorkeling in the area. It will be the first time for the boys. I’m pretty comfortable with it. I’ve learned from skiing that sometimes lessons are best received when a non parent is giving them. Thanks!

Hey Delray!

I am looking to rent a furnished place in Delray Beach for this coming month of January.

Somewhere closer to Atlantic between 95 and NE 5th Ave, Lake Ida and SW 10th St (although I understand that to get 'safe' you need to be south of Atlantic).

Requirements: Safe, 2/2 or 3/2, parking, laundry.

Optional: access to pool.

I would appreciate any suggestions for condos, websites, quality realtors, or if you've got something opening up and want a reliable renter this winter.

Thank you.

Anyone know what’s going on with this place? I went there today and it was closed

I'm so done with the poor service from the local State Farm office.
Would appreciate any recommendations for an office with good, friendly service.

Long story short, my wedding hair stylist may have bailed on me. I am now in need of a new one, and the wedding is imminent.

My wedding is August 9th in Delray beach. It is a brunch wedding which means getting ready starting at 7:15 AM.

I only need my hair styled (the bride), as all bridesmaids will be getting ready independently.

Is there anyone here who is a stylist that would be able to help me out, or recommend someone who can? Thank you so much for any and all help!
