Merry Christmas all of you. Your pups are so adorable. You kitty is so cute. Koalti know how to have a good time. Opened those presents kickers split. I live little dudes sounds. So sweet. He sure got a work out opening his Christmas present. It is so obvious how much damage the fox fur farm damaged those poor foxes. They are a very intelligent animals and yet their fear get in their way. I am so glad you saved them. Emu’s are so funny. Makes me want to kick a soccer ball around with them. Was there food in their Christmas box? Topanga and I could hang out with each other on their heating pad. Lol I have a special spot in my heart for tortoises. All birds of prey are awesome Owls in particular. Magnificent. Too bad this time of year it is too cold to feed tears to the crocodiles and Gators. Are you getting some more prairie dogs? Have you two investigated/ researched Carob? As a treat for some of your animals. I know dogs cats and horses can have it as treats. I think rabbits etc can too now sure but it isn’t chocolate but very similar in taste and high fiber. I made these for my dogs and rats for Valentine’s Day when I was a teen before. Steps: In a microware safe bowl, place carob chips and canola oil over the top. Put in microwave and heat until carob chips have melted (typically 1 min). Meanwhile, prepare a tray covered with baking paper. Dip strawberries into melted carob, let excess drip and place onto baking tray. Put in the refrigerated until the carob has hardened and it’s ready to eat!

When I think how close Ocala came to not being rescued if you guys hadn't gone for a drive that day...I am so grateful for all you do for all of the rescues at Bellowing Acres! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

[@GatorChris_]

We're so glad he's here!

[@youtubeplayer8173]

Of course I luv seeing all the other animals..but it warms my heart 2 see Ocala now being in such a loving, best home she could have landed and just being able 2 b a luved dog, it's so beautiful...all the animals being cared for at the sanctuary are and the gift they have being cared for by you two! Merry x-mas! Appreciate yall and all you do, whats also different about what you do is the education which I feel is most important..sets you apart from the rest, drives home what you are truly about and that's the animals..not for having exotic pets, not 2 knock others, just saying my respect level for you two is top tier because of it!

[@christinawelsh3417]

The wild bard owl's are saying Merry Christmas to Caloosa!!!!! That's SO NEAT!!!

[@kelseywilliams9616]

Ocala is so cute with his little Santa hat! The animals love their gifts!

[@SpiritDancer-1]

This tickled me!❤ Especially little Bam's gifts, toys and bed!! I had a pekingnese and I got her a lamb years ago.❤ All the exotics was so happy!😍

[@kelseywilliams9616]

Your cat is so cute! To him playing with the paper is the best present ever. Bambi is HILARIOUS! She is taking her gifts into her castle and playing. She is a princess!

[@gingersnap9756]

Merry Christmas to you, Gabby and all the animals at the Sanctuary! ❤

I'm so glad Lily has improved so much. She's still a spicy old girl, but now you can be in the enclosure with her, which is a massive leap of progress 💚💚

[@caylinf]

This was fantastic, thank you for everything you do.

[@GatorChris_]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ChrisB24-f8q]

This vlog should come with a serious health warning about the Christmas cuteness overload, and I include Chris and Gabby within that. Converting my thinking from scary to loveable with gators and crocs is one thing ... but Bam has made me love small dogs too .. hope your Boxing Day is an easy one even though you will still have oodles to do

[@davidhunt4307]

Emus are sooo funny. Who knew

[@sharonkaczorowski8690]

The emus weren’t impressed with the box…they very quickly figured out it was empty. Not impressed by Abby’s “can’t kill me, it’s Christmas” argument either. I laughed so hard! Wishing you all good things for the New Year!

[@michellemorningstar880]

Merry Christmas All..

[@margiewalker1808]

The little piggies are getting big. Merry Christmas!

[@davidharden7575]

Yall do have a CAT! So cool! He is beautiful! I'm crazy about cats!

[@saltymaam2046]

Merry Christmas #GatorChris and Gabby! Q: what breed of dog is Clover. She is so beautiful. Her pattern is unique. TY and have a great day!

[@simonmariga4220]

Merry Christmas

[@heidrunmercer1593]

OMG! This was so great! Great Christmas for the kids! I chuckled almost through the whole video. Ocala wasn't impressed with his hat. 😂 The Coatis, as usual, taking no prisoners! LOL! Lil' Dude just throwing his whole weight on the box. He's getting there no matter what! The red foxes are like, nope, don't think so, human. Just open these boxes up and let me have those treats. Read your job description! The fennecs overcoming their nerves was great. And those Emus. Good lord. Pecking and looking at the box, thinking what are you doing throwing this thing in here? The square enemy! You guys are something else! P.S. I'm up for adoption! 🤣❤

[@MrAhutson]

merry christmas!!!!
