[@Septic-Hearts]

Real talk, your content is the biggest reason I started liking cats and why I want to adopt one myself some day. I learned a bunch about them through you and would love to adopt from a shelter and/or contribute to rescues some day. My future cat thanks you! Also this video is pure serotonin, thanks for lifting my spirits with this vlog today, I really needed this.

[@cherylwilson8743]

@borderline what's your problem? bit bored huh?

[@tvtomass]

Yessss!!!!! I was a part of the charity stream for them! It kicked off an entire rabbit hole of charities and donation streams for me, including but not limited to thankmas world central kitchens, but my first dono of the year last year was absolutely to cats protection via your stream gabs. Thanks for the vlog! Wooo! Put out more like this I promise we won't be upset about it! After all how can anyone be upset when they're looking at kittens!?!?!

[@hannahbearista]

I ended up adopting a cat because of your content. I now have a sweet little gremlin who loves to be the center on my life, and i wouldn't change that for anything. You're a saint!

[@pinkberry57412]

Look at all those little babies! Thank you for sharing this. My cat suddenly passed away last year, I’m still recovering from that loss, but I definitely want to rescue one in the future.

[@Lesley_RedRhody]

That’s awful! I’m so very sorry. 😿

[@anthoniG]

Sorry for your loss. I know how you feel. I lost Emerald - she was 22 years old but still sprightly. I now have a Cat Rescue kitten from Cat Action Trust, called Casper. He is nothing like Emerald and I will always miss her, but he is good company.

[@poppy_pixie]

I'm really sorry for your loss. Pet loss is an incredibly traumatic experience for many. But I am confident your cat was so loved and happy with you and lived the most fulfilling life! And in the future you'll be able to give all this love to another cat that will get to live their best life with you!

[@petradegroot3578]

I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️😔 thank you for considering adopting a cat from a rescue, that awesome 👍🏼

[@Whateverhasbeenmynameforyears]

Sorry for your loss. Consider two especially if you get kittens. They entertain each other and keep each other company when you are not there or working. Is easiest with kittens but can be done with effort on adults. Cat whisperer has videos that help if you need them.

[@mmchenry21]

Coming from a vet tech in New Jersey, US that facility is gorgeous 😍 Any animal rescue organization would be in heaven to have a facility like that. For such a short clip, you can tell the staff is so dedicated to finding proper homes for their kitties

The chattiness is adorable right up until it starts happening every time you lie down to sleep lol. I do love having "conversations" with my youngest, though. It doesn't matter that we don't understand what's being said, it only matters that we're interacting and bonding in our own way.

Thank you for all you do for Cats Protection for raising funds in your charity streams. I am a fosterer for my local Cats Protection branch and have been doing it since 2015, and Ive had a few of my ex fosters go up to head office or the National Centre, even though I have never been to the main centre I have heard its big. Once again thank you for all you have done and to those that donated.

Honest to god I did not expect either of them to let go of the little black kittens, that was so precious when Evelien and Seán were holding them 🥹

The way they all looked at the camera when in the cages was so funny "hello human, what might you be doing today?" With the little head tilts 😺

[@Just1Nora]

Such a wonderful looking place! Education is just as important as handing out cats to people. I tried volunteering at our local shelter when I wasn't quite as sick, long before the pandemic, but the only jobs they could give me were laundry, cleaning accidents, and cleaning the restrooms. It's great when you can see right where your money is going. Unfortunately in my case with the shelter, tons of laundry was not in my physical abilities, and now is impossible, so no luck. I also used to be an official in a voluntary service organization in high school. We'd rase money and awareness for conditions, especially ones affecting children. We supported a big group home in our state and we had our officer training there so we could see the place and the good they were doing. It was great.

[@-chippedstars-2889]

Such a wonderful video! I hope all these wonderful babies get good furrever homes. I also loved seeing the black cat representation, so cute! It's so great seeing what they're doing for cats, especially the spay and neutering part and the interactive play time. I was a little confused when they mentioned that cats are not social animals though. I work at a local cat shelter and plenty of those cats are incredibly affectionate toward either a companion cat or humans in general. Often times we recommend they have a buddy with them in their new home because they want to be around others so badly, though we make sure to tell people when a cat isn't fond of other animals too. Some might be solitary but cats are individuals and they have their own needs that are not always the same.

[@antomie]

Yes exactly! Two or three is kinda the purrfect cat number, especially two if you can get them around the same age. Pair bonding is so important to cats.

[@skylarkblue1]

They meant with lots of other cats. Often in media cats are portayed as living with "crazy cat ladies" in houses filled with many cats. As well as that, being in a building with many many other cats, it can sometimes be stressful for some cats to be around so many other cats at once for a long amount of time. But you can tell with like how there's the black kittens together, they know pairs and such are fine :)

[@lillylewis809]

@Sky-jf7ft I know that too many cats in a room can be stressful for some cats. I've heard plenty of horrible hoarding stories at my work. I just wanted to mention that cats, no matter the age, can be with other animals. Maybe I just misunderstood what they said in the video? Thanks for clearing it up for me!

Awh so precious!! I couldn’t stop myself from smiling during this video - kitties are such wonderful little beings!

[@Kahmiaa]

Im so glad you vlogged this visit!!! Not only was it an absolute delight to watch, but the education is so important for people who want cats and even have cats already and maybe don't take the best care of them. My 2 cats are rescues, and they were a real tough case to see; feral kittens put into negligent foster homes, and then I rescued them at 6 months old. They needed a metric shit ton of patience, work, and space to get any kind of adjusted, and only after 2 years have I really noticed a daily difference. But I knew and respected that cats need the independence and the time to figure things out for themselves; they're not like dogs that are dependent and come around rather quickly (in most cases). It sets me into an instant seething rage when I see tiktoks and videos of people scaring or otherwise torturing their kittens/cats bc they jump and "haha cat go *boing* funny", but it's not funny to them and it's very damaging for them over the long term. If everyone gave their kittens and cats respect and independence, there'd be no one saying "my cats just an asshole" and they'd realize the torment they put their kitten through turned them into the asshole cat they are today. I didnt realize I was ranting about cats until now. Thanks for the lovely video Gab :)

thank you for all the fundraising & awareness you do for cats! I was so happy to see adults & black cats in this video, because they're some of the ones who have a harder time getting adopted, along with disabled cats - we adopted two adult kitties when I was in middle school and they are my babies. one of them is missing an eye and that's part of why we adopted him. I mean we immediately fell in love with both of them lol but we also knew that he would have a harder time getting adopted than many other cats there. our other cat was his best friend and we found that out the next day when we went back for him and we're so glad we did, they're like brothers & we love them so much. thank you for all of the work you do, I know all the kitties you help would tell you how thankful & appreciative they are if they could!

[@a_a3189]

I recently adopted my own kitty. He was abandoned by his previous owner. My front door was open and he walked into my house, into my bedroom, and just slept on my bed. After neutering him, vaccinating him, giving him a good bath, he's now my baby boy. He's single handedly the clingiest cat I've ever met. He will only sleep with his head on me at all times. In the middle of the night, he'll tuck his head on my arm. I guess the point of my story is, please adopt. You are giving these cats a home they will appreciate so much. Especially if a cat chooses you. That's a done deal at that point. Gab, thank you so much for helping these cats to live a better life. Your heart is made of gold and I hope that one day I can do what you do too!

This is precious. I work at an animal shelter and I'm always up for cat enrichment. Its nice to see these healthy cats, I'm glad to see they had everyone in PPE playing with kittens. However, cats as a species ARE social. They evolved from African cats which are pride animals. However, every cat is different. Theres issues in describing animals species in wide swathes, it ignores the needs of the individual. Thanks for promoting adoption! We microchip all our animals so I hope they manage to as well!
