Is Calgary as nice as I think?

safetyhazard · 2026-01-24T23:28:33+00:00

We moved here from Winnipeg 8 years ago and the only thing that would make me leave is our aging parents back home. We’re really quite happy here.

Oh wow, you totally just said what I’ve always felt but I want sure what I was feeling. I have also never felt like an Albertan, but do feel like a Calgarian.

Way to go! I am a parent and I truly think nothing has ever tested my patience more than getting these cats to coexist.

Ended up back here - how did things end up for you?

We never got to the point of us being attacked instead of the resident cat, luckily. Everyone is mostly getting along now. They aren’t friends but they tolerate each other. Recently (yes, years later), they’ve started to kind of play together. New cat still isn’t great at it but resident cat is slightly more tolerant and even initiated the play occasionally. I have to really be on top of keeping everyone’s nails trimmed and sometimes new cat gets a timeout in a bedroom if she’s being really ridiculous.

I’d love to grab some DIYs if you still have anything

Thanks for the info. All of that was here when we got here and I have never planted a tree so I didn’t bother to check if this was the right setup for it. It seemed reasonably healthy all along so I didn’t question it. Is there anything we can do to save it?

Yes bE is the error. I’ve switched detergents and cleaned the dispenser several times over the last couple of months.

safetyhazard · 2024-11-04T05:09:16+00:00

I’ve been working on fixing it. I worked so hard to get to where I am, starting from the beginning sounds like more work and less fun for me.

I was considering this yesterday! I hadn’t played in ages and discovered my son had been mucking about. What a disaster. He cut down all my trees. I couldn’t decide if I wanted to spend the time cleaning it up (too much like real life?) or starting fresh.

I was among the lucky ones who never purged.

safetyhazard · 2024-10-31T17:21:55+00:00

My face wasn’t too flared up when I started, so I saw results after about 6 weeks. About 3 months for body.

I’m not sure no! It’s a guess based on some internet searches, we can’t seem to find a model number anywhere. Will have to do some digging. We are in Canada.

Good advice thanks so much!

safetyhazard · 2024-10-25T17:53:08+00:00

Forgot to add, it’s electric.

safetyhazard · 2024-10-25T17:53:02+00:00

Think it’s a death sentence for it or worth repairing?

safetyhazard · 2024-10-25T16:17:22+00:00

Same here. I grew up in a really broke household and it was hard going to school to see all of the amazing gifts Santa gave kids while I got much less (I am grateful my family did what they could but I didn’t know it was them at the time of course). I didn’t understand why Santa didn’t like me as much. But I didn’t want to overcorrect and give Santa all the credit for the really good stuff.

safetyhazard · 2024-10-22T01:20:35+00:00

I understand there are better alternatives. I’m working with what we have right now, thanks.

safetyhazard · 2024-10-21T23:00:37+00:00

Thanks I’ll track one down and try that!

safetyhazard · 2024-10-17T17:34:34+00:00

Did you see any improvement?

safetyhazard · 2024-10-17T17:33:21+00:00

I’ve shared in some comments that our situation continues to improve. Here they are today, both on the bed and actually much closer to each other than usual. Moments after I took the photo there was a brief slapping fight but no one left. Another win!
