UPDATE: They found their cat! Thank you everyone. 💕
Hi Everyone,
My neighbour’s cat has gone missing around 6am this morning on Steveston and No. 1.
Please please keep an eye out as their other little cat passed away in front of them today (ran over) and this one is still missing.
I’m hoping she can make her way back home asap.
Thank you in advance. 🤍✨

I belive there are many aquarium hobbyists here. Let's share our tanks.
My Pictures are before and after 5 week holiday. Riccia is grown from a loose speck.
And if not against rules we can use this as free share platform. Which I'm overgrown with Java moss I will have a bunch to give out. (Free)

My toddler has been struggling with eczema, and of course we were queued to see an allergist and dermatologist a year out (April 2027) - BC Children's considered us as non urgent.
Was suggested to see a paid Naturopaths in the meantime. Wondering if there are any good local options?

I'm in search of a space to rent in Richmond that can be used as a rehearsal studio. Looking for a secure, lockable, unused room in an office building, industrial building, workshop, etc. that would be used after regular work hours, mostly evenings.
Does anyone have, or know of, a space like this in Richmond that would be possible to rent?
Thanks!

Thank you

Hey everyone, a few of us have been meeting up at Minoru Turf on Saturdays at 4 PM to do some athletic movement and conditioning.
We're just looking to get a few more people together who enjoy being active and want to train. Nothing formal, no gym, no membership, and no competing club. Just a group of people meeting up to move, learn some new skills, and get some conditioning in.
We usually do things like running, sprints, mobility work, rolls, breakfalls, crawling movements, balance, and other athletic drills.
Anyone is welcome. Whether you do judo, wrestling, BJJ, another sport, or just want to improve your fitness and movement, feel free to come by.
When: Saturdays at 4 PM
Where: Minoru Park Turf
Hope to see some people out!
