Canada is a big country, the second largest in the world behind only Russia. But most of its 35 million people live in a very small area. To see how small, follow the series of maps below. Where do Canadaâs people live? (size = population) This is a cartogram, a map in which the area of each region is substituted with some mapping variable, population in this case. Said another way, the size of each region corresponds to the number of people who live there. Canada gets deformed to the point itâs completely unrecognizable (for comparison, see these cartograms of the U.S. and the U.K.). The bulk of the cartogramâs area, and therefore Canadaâs population, is in the bulge on the right. And that bulge is predominantly made up of just three light-colored regions and their immediate surroundings: Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa, Canadaâs 1st, 2nd, and 4th most populous metro areas respectively.
A popular misconception is that cats age seven years (in human years) for each calendar year. In fact, feline aging is much more rapid during the first two years of life. A cat reaches the approximate human age of 15 during its first year, then 24 at age 2.
Your cat will hit puberty around 6 months of age. Like human teenagers, her body and mind are not finished growing, but she's now capable of reproducing. Spaying or neutering your kitty before this age is very highly recommended. Your kitty will be more or less her adult size by 1 year of age.
