The Knowledge That Disappears With a Neighborhood

New Bloom Magazine published Julie Choi's essay on the practical neighborhood knowledge that makes street-cat rescue possible.

Beginning with the search for Yeontan's kittens, the piece explains how caregivers, repeated sightings, photographs, routes, and feeding routines form an informal map that official redevelopment plans do not preserve. It argues that humane redevelopment must account for the animals and care networks still present before access disappears.
