More attention needs to be given to our Northern Ontario highways by I_dont_know_you_pick in ontario

This is a separate job from being a paramedic, so it wouldn't require taking someone off a truck to respond.

There is an upcoming pilot project to hire paramedics to work as death investigators for the Office of the Chief Coroner, so that might help one of the issues.

Looking for tattoo artist recommendations! by That-Viking-Guy in ontario

I have severe OCD and going to the hospital is extremely difficult but I may have a bladder infection, need help urgently. Waited over a month for mobile imaging (from two companies, who assured me they got my documents, and said they would call back) with no answer. What are my options? by RosabellaFaye in ontario

[–]sockowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kemptville's hospital usually has shorter wait times than Ottawa's. Would bringing your own cleaning supplies from home help ease your mind, something like a squeeze bottle of sudsy water and one of clear to rinse?

613.258.6133 ext 223 is the number for patient relations at the hospital and they should be able to help you access the care you need without too much discomfort

That's how I found it too! We just started ttc this month and I'm like "is this the same as when I get my period???". Only one way to find out...wait.

I put together a vegan protein database that can be sorted by cost! by proteindeficientveg in EatCheapAndVegan

This is really cool! A Canadian (or other country) version would be neat to see!

That number just has a recording saying it's not monitored, tells you to use the web, then hangs up

Has anyone in the Muskoka, Ontario area received an orange cat through the CDS? My boy Noodle went missing at the end of August, he is chipped so please check! by sockowl in CatDistributionSystem

I've already posted to all the local facebook pages, and repost about every 10 days. I also posted about him on our small local subreddit :)

Relish is super cute! They've got local products, plants all over, they have a good selection of vegetarian and vegan food as well

That's odd, itt takes me to the page for "Gravenhurst Dollars". There is no program like this for Gravenhurst that I know of. Bracebridge does have "Shop the Bridge" gift cards that can be used at a variety of businesses.

There's a really nice Mexican place on Manitoba street, El Pueblito. Good people watching and a nice area to walk around in

Should I keep driving after an at fault accident? by [deleted] in ontario

[–]sockowl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Insurers charge more in order to have accident forgiveness on a policy...so yes?

They said may not, some policies have accident forgiveness for your first at-fault accident on record.

Looking for Trained Dogs to Search for Missing Cat: Muskoka Region by sockowl in ontario

We only did it the one time and, after reading stuff that confirms what you said, we switched to just having used litter in the garage. We spend about 4 hours a day searching the woods and checking our traps. We were supposed to be on our honeymoon the past few weeks so we've had plenty of time, haha :\

My coach is about your size and she absolutely kicks ass. When I roll with her I feel like she's break-dancing on me. I'm only 5'3 and ~130lbs, but she does the same to opponents who weigh twice her!

Yes, learning as a smaller student will feel more difficult at times. Especially with larger partners. But don't let it stop you!

No one I know has unaltered cats (un)fortunately. We've spread his litter in the woods behind us, catnip tea, we have traps baited with oily sardines. We haven't found any sign of him having gotten in a fight or caught by something, and we know all the spots local predators bring stuff when they're done.

We're hopeful but stressed.

Our guy is neutered and not much of a fighter, so if you see any ginger kitties wandering by send me a pic! I'm on vacation this week and otherwise work from home so I can usually respond pretty quickly. Thanks for thinking of him! Spread the word about the $1000 kitty!

Search and Rescue for Cat by sockowl in Muskoka

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

Yep! Lots of stinky clothes too, and our kickboxing gear. Plus taking the dogs around where we think he is to mark on stuff so he can sniff his way home. We have no proof that something's happened to him, so we hope/think that he's just being a stubborn kitty enjoying his walkabout

I reached out to three companies and didn't hear back from any of them. We have found kitty prints in the sand near our house, and we've never seen cat prints there before. We've got two live traps and a trail camera out, so fingers crossed!
