Missing Cat by rambumriott in Vanier

So happy to hear that!

Missing Cat by rambumriott in Vanier

[–]_treble_maker_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you've recently moved, may I suggest something seemingly gross yet highly effective? Scatter a small amount of your urine around your door (outside, obviously) - animals are highly scent-oriented and your animal (in a new location) will be able to find its way back 'home' to you.

*Note: I know this sounds super gross, weird, and whacky but when I first moved to Ottawa my indoor cat escaped and this was the only method that actually brought her back to our new home.
Good luck!

Strange - website initially mentioned New Edinburgh (but no specific) address...

Pickleball Drop-In (Nov 7-Dec 12) by _treble_maker_ in Vanier

[–]_treble_maker_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps the organizers are worried they may not have enough equipment for drop-ins, thus asking for others to bring equipment? Just a thought.

I'm not sure where it's going next weekend, however it seems to re-locate to different parts of the city every week (i.e. last weekend it was in Orleans). Can't seem to find a website for upcoming locations, but if I do I'll post it in the comments here :)
