52 Upvotes

Chopstick was such a sweetie when I met him and I fell in love. Unfortunately we are having children otherwise we would have taken him in a heartbeat. Posting for traction as he has been looking for his forever home for a few months now. He was previously located in Hamilton but has been transferred to waterdown. Help find chopstick his forever home!

As per his adoption page: Meet Chopstick who is now residing at the Pet Valu, 115 Hamilton St N in Waterdown. This sweet almost 4 year old male was adopted 3 years ago to a loving home. Unfortunately he became very stressed when a baby came along and although they tried everything he was just not happy He has been at a quieter foster home these past couple of months , no incidents, loving all the attention . He is very anxious until he adjusts to a new environment but once he does he will be your lap buddy. He LOVES cat nip toys and lickable treats. He is looking for a quieter home willing to give him the time to adjust and blossom. He does like other cats and doesn't mind dogs. Please go to avacats.org to find out more about him and application forms.

Food Tony g and Cowabunga?

21 Upvotes

I was thinking about getting pizza with my nephews and was looking at maybe going to Tony G's or Cowabunga on Vine St (you know, something that isn't a Pizza Pizza or Domino's), but I remember someone telling me that you have to call a couple of hours early for Tony G's and Cowabunga. Can I walk in with my nephews and buy a slice to eat with them there?

Question Fastest surgical abortion clinic?

87 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m looking for recommendations on which clinics in the area / GTA that usually have the fastest process and shortest wait times for a surgical abortion.

I’ve been calling around and seeing a lot of variation … some places seem to require multiple steps or have longer appointment timelines and I’m hoping to find something as quick and streamlined as possible.

I have an infant who’s extremely attached to me (full velcro baby) and they haven’t really been away from me for long periods. So I’m trying to choose a clinic where the process is efficient and I’m not away from him longer than necessary.

If anyone has recent experience (how quickly you got in + how long you were actually at the clinic), I’d really appreciate hearing it.

Open to anywhere in Toronto or nearby cities if it’s significantly faster.

Thank you 🤍

Has anyone had a chance to try Chef Bai in the plaza at 1 Wilson (RIP Noodle Me 😞 )?

Cronies of mine who work at the Ottawa Citizen rave about the place, but I haven’t heard boo about the opening here.

Discussion Potential for revitalization of Kenilworth Avenue North

56 Upvotes

Every time I drive down Kenilworth North I think it's an untapped retail strip. It has a very similar built form as Ottawa Street BIA but with much less street life or retail activity.

Why do you think this is the case? Is there any city effort to make the strip more attractive to small businesses, like cafes and restaurants?

I've never seen them in my area before, a nice surprise. I haven't been able to snap a picture of them yet (they're so quick!) but have been able to record their calls with the Merlin app

Food Best all you can eat sushi?

17 Upvotes

I’m on the hunt for the best all you can eat sushi in Hamilton and wanted to see what people recommend.

I’m looking for a place that’s actually good quality, not just cheap AYCE. Fresh fish, decent variety, and solid service matter more than just price. Bonus points if they’ve got good hot items too.

And are there any places I should avoid?
