How did you know my new obsession is watching morning routines.

[@hindh583]

they knew u needed one 🤣

[@noname-vs5zy]

i think we all have been thought this 😅😂❤️

[@diamondwilliams1207]

Yassss I have had to learn to create me a routine most definitely with my kids it makes the day feel so much bwtter

[@fernandoorozco3474]

Meanwhile KZbin's algorithm: yeah, how did SHE know.

[@andic1368]

Deep breathing through the exercise, and using your full mobility. You have the strength to do it but your mind is loud. Going into my workouts with the (four minute mile) perspective; really pushing as hard as you can and not considering boundaries relevant to you. Totally focused and using your breathe to pump your muscle will give you that mind body connection you may be looking for. I fw you,and you motivate me, glad your reading now! Hope this brings value ❤️

[@diamondwilliams1207]

I’m going to take this into consideration now that I’m into working out

[@mangotango2286]

I get so excited every time you post, you’re very inspiring, so thank you for this 🤍

[@annabellaebert2321]

Little tip for the flea problem with the babies! Coat their fur in coconut oil really well. This not only will keep their skin hydrated after the next step BUT it also makes it really difficult for the fleas to crawl up to their ears and face where they will try to burrow themselves. Then you can actually use a little bit of dawn dish soap to bath them which with almost instantly kill the fleas. It is safe to use in moderation for example like how they use it to clean animals after an oil spill. If you don’t feel comfortable doing that, go ahead and find a kitten safe flea shampoo you feel comfortable using and do the same thing with the coconut oil. I have had this issue before and both methods worked amazingly! I really hope this helps!

[@Oops_Tofu]

Mmm..that oil spill cleaning is great marketing..just because it was used to clean the oil off doesn't mean the animals survived. Please stick with the flea & tick prevention medication at the stores..

[@livmelanson1852]

I hate to be that person, ignore me if you want, but as a vet assistant I have to warn you about Hartz products - they are so dangerous. Also, flea collars only protect the area it sits on, which I didn't know until recently! Your best bet for fleas is a topical product - I'm a big fan of advantage, it's over the counter ans budget friendly ! The flea life cycle is 90 days from egg to adult, so you want to make sure to treat them for atleast 4 months ! That way, any eggs that survived vacuuming, etc, get killed when they hatch and become adults. Fleas are the most annoying things ever !!

[@ShayyButter]

thanks for being so transparent about not beign productive all the time, after the gym ill just be at home watching youtube and netflix.I just like to be with myself. your vlogs are so motivating and makes me want to workout and take care of myself

“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” ‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭3:9‬ ‭NIV‬ ROMANS 10:9-11 “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame” Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭19:10‬ ‭ God wants us to believe in His One and Only Son, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, who died for our sins :D When we truly believe in our hearts that Jesus is the Son of God, who died for our sins so we could have eternal life with God, we are saved from the eternal fire and have eternal life in Christ Jesus!! 💖 May God bless you all! 🕊❤️

Can you make a video that incorporates like a full walk through of your mobility stretches? Like reps and all. I’ve been trying to stay active consistently and have heard that you’ll have better results when stretching but I’m not sure how many reps and what forms to do?

[@shannifox2989]

Not to panic you but I've heard really bad things about the hartz brand especially for flea stuff. I've never tried them for my cat but ya just thought I'd let you know

“Don’t mind the hair” I’ve literally never been so obsessed with someone’s hair 😭😭

[@angelazimdars1122]

Your newer videos you're doing really well with the training but they are still really aggressive and that could be because you're feeding them a couple times A-day they think they're living without. We went with One time a day with our kittens. they were the same age two weeks apart. They focus on only the food throughout the day. Basically you are teaching them that they have to have it. reality as we all live without multiple meals A-day. It's actually healthier and then they don't gain weight later on. yes this is safe. we didn't do it until they were a bit bigger & we slowly transition them into. They are four years old now & healthy. They have a lot more time to do other things.

[@Nishesii]

I love watching your videos so much, I have since the beginning of this year and you're literally my favorite content creator, I have so much catching up to do right now lmao so I'm binge watching rn

[@amarastinson6348]

There are edible rosewaters. I would assume they are better for your skin if you can eat them but who knows. Usually I see them in Arab food markets and Middle eastern food markets and they are often far cheaper than the ones sold as beauty products. Also that is the same across the board as i've found for any beauty product that is also edible like coconut oil.

[@Silentnightasmr4]

Its a territorial thing with them peeing almost all of the time getting the, fixed will stop it this happened to me with my babyboy

[@jordanashley444]

i have 2 brother cats that my boyfriend rescued from a dangerous construction site when they were 4 weeks old. When they were kittens they would go crazy like that for food. They would meow like crazy. I've seen some of my friends kittens act like this and some of them didn't. After about 8 months ours calmed down. One still meows when we're making his food but not as aggressive. But when they were kittens they would meow, step in their food, and eat it soo quickly as if they've never been fed lol. Yours will probably calm down overtime!

They're just marking their territory by peeing on the items

[@lissettdiaz9911]

Hi! I would suggest watching videos from “All about CATS” on KZbin!! They suggest good and healthy brands that honor the cats carnivore diet. I personally use instinct dry food for my kittens and tiki cat (with the addition of salmon oil) and adding blanched spinach/parsley here and there to add more fats and fiber (since that brand lacks it but I LOVE THEIR INGEDIENTS) it’s less processed and humans are able to consume

Buy Ahmed Rosewater from the local Indian grocery if you can find it! Or Amazon- it’s the best and it’s eating grade so I don’t think it would be bad for your skin (natural)

[@sarasoleimani8237]

I really look forward to your contents being posted💚 BTW, we have a flea problem with our cat this year-first time in 3years- nothing worked like 100%. We are recommended to go like this: cat and I stay a night somewhere else, daddy apply Premethrin 10% all over the house-safty measures⚠️- and come to us, we wash our cat with anti flea shampoo and apply a vet approved Fipronil containing spray on the neck of the cat, get back home the next day. Ask an expert about this whole process though✌🏻

best wet cat food brands i use is tiki cat, this brand also carry broths to add to your cats food for the xtra moisture, wellness, instinct, cats in the kitchen, BFF, perfect bistro & open farm. others i have tried but weren’t my cats fav were ziwi, rawz & koha.

You can also make your own rosewater toner. So you can buy her some rose and some water because it’s really simple ingredient. And you can look on KZbin like how do they make it so it’s like really eco-friendly.

[@ariellasmith3808]

I always love seeing new videos from you! Also, kittens need wet food growing up. Im not sure how old yours are but typically feed them wet food until 6-8months then slowly integrate dry food. They might not be getting enough water because of the dry food. Also, you need 1 litter box per kitten plus 1 extra.

"Science Diet" and "Medical" are great professional food brands from the vet - if you bye from the grocery store the fillers in food can even contain chicken feathers (real fact) - The vet food is 100% digestible so there is less smell in the litter and your cats will be healthier.

Get them another litter box! Generally you want one extra litter box (so 2 cats means 3 boxes) but adding one more should help! Cats like options lol. Also they should grow out of food aggression. It’s very common for kittens to be that way….. ps - always look forward to your videos 😊

Hi!!! i foster kittens all the time, make sure you give them wet kitten food as well because kitten food has the nutrients that they need and they need to eat 3x a day!! that might be why they are meowing so loudly! good luck girly! kittens are a handful!

[@alishathompson3681]

Hey! I love your vlogs! I have a cat who just recently turned one and I've been using Revolution Plus as his monthly flea and tick medication. It does require a prescription from the vet though if trying to purchase online. Even when my cat was a kitten he never liked collars and would rip them off and play with them as a toy lol. Enjoy them while they are small because once they get bigger they will climb and jump on everything! My cat also did a lot of meowing when it was time for food when he was a kitten, but now he only meows on car rides. I think it's natural to always worry about the health and well-being of our pets but that's not a bad thing, and I find I'm always learning as he grows. I hope this helps! Oh and for food I try to feed high protein with at least the first 5 ingredients being poultry, fish/seafood, or meat, and no grains and little to no carbs.
