Here are the top stories in Sunset Park today:

1. Sunset Park area adoptable pets: meet Colin Furth and more. "Colin Furth is a 3-year-old male who had a rough life outside until we rescued him. He very friendly, playful, independent, couch potato, smart, brave, quiet, dignified and protective," wrote shelter staff. Maybe you would consider fostering a pet. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year-round, many shelters offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed. (Sunset Park Patch)
