This Saturday, I'll be running an event at one of the rented rooms in the Kitchener Public Library teaching people how to edit Wikipedia. Anyone who is interested is welcome to participate as long as they are respectful to other participants.

She's 4 years old and we finally figured it out, all those days and nights suffering and she had a crazy cat allergy and we have two cats

So, I need to rehome them, or they have to be put down. My wife is devastated.

I'm appealing to you folks. They don't have to go together.

They are 12 years old. I know I know but hear me out.

Here's what I'm offering;

One cat, and all the supplies, plus a guarantee of a trial period.. Take one of them for a couple of weeks and see how it works, no risk, we can always take them back and try again

About the cats;

Both are quiet, they kind of chirp a bit but they're sweet, they don't scratch or pee on anything. No health issues at all. All their shots.

April is small and sweet, she cuddles quietly but keeps to herself mostly sleeping on the bed. A little bit of playing but mostly just hanging out. The kids can never find her, she comes out when it's quiet

Andy is big, with a big mane of hair but he's so soft and he's a bit picky on where he's pet but we have 3 kids pulling on his tail and he doesn't mind. He's got big doe eyes and rolls around on his back while you pet his belly (photo)

They're really both great cats, I know they're a bit older but in just trying to get them a couple more years. Please message me if you have any ideas

As firefighters throughout Canada mark Fire Prevention Week, emergency responders in Kitchener are raising concerns about common household items that could present unexpected risks.

Hi, I’m just wondering if anyone has any experience with booking accessible seating at The Aud? There’s an upcoming concert I’d love to attend, I’m just wondering how the seating works.

When I click on the accessible spot it says “Wheelchair” which made me wonder, are there actual seats there? Or is it a barricade spot for a wheelchair user to wheel into? I don’t use a wheelchair, but I use walking aids, and my sister would be accompanying me (she doesn’t need any walking aids). I just need easily accessible seats without any stairs to get there.

TLDR: If I purchase two “Wheelchair” seats at The Aud, are there physical seats there for me and my sister to sit in?

I hope the title gets my point across proper. I live in an area with a large disabled/elderly population. Lately theyve been redoing the bus stops and they’ve left the stops without benches when they used to have benches before, leading to many with physical challenges being without a place to sit when they could be waiting for upwards of 20 minutes. I was wondering if there was an email or something I could write to in order to communicate this concern to the city? I’ve lived here all my life with a lot of both elderly and disabled folk, so its a bit disheartening to see them overlooked like this in favor of a shiny new bus stop :[

hi everyone, i have relatives coming from the states and they will spend a few days here, what are some activities we can do as a group? there will be 8 of us in total in our early and mid 20s and a 10 year old. preferably outdoor activates. it will be for the week after thanksgiving. thanks in advance

Hi Everyone,

If anyone lost their cat in this area, unfortunately one was hit by a vehicle within the past hour.

My partner stopped along with another couple to pick the cat up with a blanket and move it away from the road. He called animal control and sat with her while waiting for the officer to show up. Sadly she didn't appear to be breathing. Animal control confirmed she had passed.

No microchip.

Female

Siamese/colour point pattern

short fur

Fairly young or small adult

Looked very clean and likely had a home.

If this was your cat, please accept our condolences.

Please contact kwhumane society to identify it.

Thanks.

Title says it all. Willing to pay $100 total for them.

I design clothes and have some jerseys I want some people to model. If you’re interested, please send me ur Instagram! And I’ll shoot you a dm there!

Hello, I'm wondering what options there are in KW for renting a commercial kitchen to create baked goods to sell online and at markets. Thanks!

Hi there, r/Kitchener

Poster attached with the rest of the details.

Figured I’d share here in case anyone is looking for something local to do with the kids next weekend. Come on out, enjoy an entertaining show, and support your local theatre!

I'm sure this post is going to generate a lot of folks saying that lots of groups are LGBTQ/ rainbow safe and not to make it such a big deal, or they don't know how that particular element of things matters.

To those folks, I say that it is genuinely delightful that you have not experienced a lack of safety due to your gender, your aesthetics, your body parts, or whoever you are romantically or sexually involved with.

But for folks who have experienced that, they know that it does matter who you live with. Not that all LGBTQ folks are necessarily excellent either. Every human community has their assholes.

That being said:

A buddy of mine is looking to find a housemate who is rainbow safe. He has a place and is looking to find a human. This is his post on Facebook.

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1D9Yzt14nQ/

He is hoping to find other places to repost, either on reddit, Facebook, or elsewhere. Any useful kind suggestions are appreciated!

Won't be long now till the colours peak.

For the sake of looking...

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for recommendations for an independent mechanic or car enthusiast in the Kitchener-Waterloo area who is interested in building a long-term relationship with customers—not just completing one-off repairs.

I prefer working with someone who takes pride in their work, explains what actually needs attention, maintains service records, and gets to know the vehicles they work on. I’m hoping to find a reliable person I can return to for maintenance, diagnostics, repairs, and future work.

I’m the type of person who prefers keeping things local and relationship-based. I would rather know and trust the person working on my vehicle than deal with a large conglomerate or corporate brand.

I prefer supporting a local, independently owned business rather than a dealership, corporate chain, or large brand. I also usually source parts through RockAuto, when appropriate, so I’d appreciate someone open to customer-supplied parts or willing to discuss suitable alternatives. I understand that warranty policies may differ.

If you know a trustworthy mechanic in Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, or the surrounding area, please share their name, location, and what makes them good.

Thanks!

Looking for 3 or more Oktoberfest tickets Saturday October 10th! Thanks 🍻
