[@michaelbushee3968]

"The choice is ours, and for me, above all else, I choose to be kind." This is such a powerful statement, one more people could stand to hear and learn from. Keep being awesome, Jessi.

[@CommonMistakes404]

Wanted to share how you helped my dog and me a few years ago! My dog, Cookie Monster, started spending hours alone in dark rooms and ignoring food and toys. I reached out to you over social media for advice because my mom took her to the vet who found nothing physically wrong, and you replied saying that she could be suffering from depression. It was my second year of uni, so it didn't occur to me Cookie was suffering from me leaving her with my parents because she hadn't reacted like this when I moved out during my first year. We adjusted to help Cookie through her depression, and she no longer shuts down when I leave home for internships and school. Thank you for always being there for all animals!

I used to have sugar gliders and I love your glider videos! I owned gliders for 10 years and thought I knew everything. Then I saw a video of one of your reptiles and you said something that stuck with me. Basically saying that the animal community is constantly evolving and its important to keep up with current information. Because of that i did research and saw there was lots of areas where I could improve and because of that all my gliders lived long and happy lives :)

[@loura246]

Animal Wonders helped me realize that animal welfare is a huge passion of mine, which helped me decide to major in zoology in college. I am now in my final semester and will graduate with a zoology degree later this year, and I intend to pursue zookeeping since I fell in love with it during my internship at the Audubon Zoo last summer. I also hope to have several species under my personal care in the future, and your channel has made me determined to look for rescues before buying from breeders.

[@sarahstardust]

You bring me lots of joy, too! I've been seriously ill for many years and it limits my activities to KZbin, podcasts, and simple mobile games. Having positive channels to watch like yours makes my life so much lighter. I have a real soft spot for furry critters. My favorites are Ophelia, Lollipop, Huckleberry, and Kemosabe ❤️😊 Thanks for all that you do.

[@MsKnitsAlot]

Yay!! Thank you for this video, I also work in an animal welfare related field and sometimes it is so important to step back and see how all the hard work has really paid off. Your videos have made purpuseful and unexpected ripples for good all over. I especially loved how people who hadn't heard of positive training were now using it for their own animals. You are helping to make animals' lives better all over the world!

[@magpiecore]

I live in the Netherlands, but recently i discovered your videos and i can't stop watching! We have a cockatiel and a budgie at home (we may be getting another cockatiel soon) and i just love being in their company and just watching what they do. I am fascinated by animals, and your channel helped me decide on what i want to do later in life. Thank you

[@sweatpantsprincess3239]

This 10 year old Jayden is an amazing public speaker for a kid his age. I really hope to see him grow up to do his own presentations like these!

[@kimbookish]

OMG! My comment made your video! Thank you so much!!! It was my birthday yesterday and this was the best belated birthday present I can think of! :)

[@FoxymateStudios]

happy late birthday. Hope all the good things will come to you...!!!

[@suzannerust8658]

Hey Jessi, my husband shows me new videos from your channel when I'm struggling with my depression and during the pandemic, they are helping me stay sane. Thank you to you and all of the team for everything you do x x x

[@juliadandy6019]

Hi, Suzanne! Sending lots of positive vibes for your journey in getting better!

[@elizabethroyerjohnson4992]

This was so beautiful! This channel has definitely helped me think more carefully and intentionally about bringing a cat or a dog into my life, and also helped me feel more confident that my partner and I can take care of one well.

[@GraceLJW]

I was not prepared to cry today but this is too wholesome and lovely 🖤🖤🖤😭

[@hydeegarman4706]

Jessi!! We have a small rabbit (and the occasional bottle baby kitten) rescue in Washington state.. I love watching you every week and learn something new. I have always loved animals and even when I was young I wanted to be a vet (for Halloween for many years I was a vet lol). Your channel has really helped me see my passion for helping others. Thank you for continuing to light that fire.

[@raania3184]

Even i have a passion for animal and of course their welfare. But unfortunately no one supports me at home. No one care about the love and care I have for animals but fortunately I have you and your videos. The tips and teach I got from you is.....I have no words to describe that. You are fabulous ,wish you good luck and can't wait to go on more adventures with you and hope Zeema gets well soon as she had a surgery. Hope one day my family members can see the love I have for animals. Bye

[@lNFINlTEx]

Even if your family isn't supportive of you taking good care of your animals, you can find plenty of online communities which are supportive! I highly suggest google for a forum related to the pets you are passionate about. ;) It isn't quite the same as your family understanding your passion in pets, but being in a community of people that are equally enthusiastic about animals can really be a good experience. :)

[@LeaniStar]

This video is so wholesome. Animals really can bring people together and inspire for good. I work with wild endangered birds and even though they hate it when I catch them, I would do almost anything to ensure their survival ❤️

[@Eyagsf]

That one 👎 should find somewhere else to go. This channel is all about love & appreciation 💕

[@keararanck176]

Their little green cheek in the beginning is such a sweetheart while mine is practically possessed. What the heck!

[@jessi411]

As a fellow Jessi who loves animals, I love watching your videos to tide me over until I’m in a position to have a rescue of my own (for domestic animals, not wild, but still)

[@dwaynezilla]

Your enthusiasm is contagious, endearing, and inspiring! Very nice to see the positive effect you have on the world. keep up the good work!

[@maclennantwins]

Animal Wonders helped me (almost) convince my mom to get a Chinchilla!

[@sarahbeara946]

I just wanted to say that we love your channel! My toddler loves seeing the animals and asks to watch “animals” all the time.

[@Azzarinne]

My husband and I watched this together, and OMG the warm fuzzies at 4:06! That little surprise made him really happy. We've had a rough few days, and this really helped.

[@Ravenzpeak]

Love the photo of the man with birds...What a nice video and great idea to share people's stories. AWM subscribers are awesome!

[@trilobite-knight7746]

That 10 year old was hella articulate & poised tho damn he's gonna be a public speaker or something

[@sweatpantsprincess3239]

Yesss I had the same thought! I've taught theater to kids that age and he definitely has a future if he pursues it, good luck Jayden!

[@lumine4503]

Hi animal wonders! I have three parrots and with some information from u, I know how to treat them the best way! I help all of my friends when it comes to questions about their pets all because of you! You help us all so so much!! you inspite me so much! Thank you for all u do!! Keep being awesome!

I honestly didn't know much about porcupines until you introduced Kemosabe. Now I think they are adorable.. Also, your channel has helped me educate fellow rabbit owners.

[@BarbaraDelGiudice]

Hi, Jessie. You are wonderful! You do make a huge difference for animals. Thank you so much because they are so vulnerable. You are spreading love and compassion for animals which is priceless. Thank you so much! Love, Big hugs, birdie kisses. Barb, Beenie, Baby spirit :)))

This may be one of my favorite video... I don' have pets, I don't have a job (for now), and I live in the city, but I love animals and hearing how much they can impact other people's life givees me a hope and motivation that I can achieve my goals. Thank you Jessi for creating this channel and for choosing to be kind. Love, a fan

[@LydiaTarine12]

My most noteworthy animal story is about my current cat. I adopted a lovely 9 month old cat from a local shelter. She was insanely playful and wonderfully affectionate and would wait at the window for me to come home every afternoon, meowing and pacing/circling in anticipation when she saw my car pull up. She was (and still is) a /wonderful/ cat. However, after some time I had the impression she had lost weight. It turns out, I was right. To make a looooooong story short, after /many/ vet visits and dietary changes (she's now on hypoallergenic food exclusively), two rounds of a low-level antibiotic (the second because a change in formulation of her same brand and type of hypoallergenic food was enough to give her serious urinary issues) and a change of weight of 8.6 pounds upon adoption to 6.3 pounds at her lowest, she's finally, FINALLY doing better and has stabilized at a weight of ~7.1 lbs. ... She's a small cat. ^_^ Speaking of weight, how is Kimosabe doing? He looks so thin these days compared to how I remember him being when he had more teeth. Does his lack of teeth make it more difficult for him to gain weight or is it because he's such an old porcupine and dealing with all the changes that brings?

[@animalwondersmontana]

Good to hear she's doing good now, well done! To answer your question, Kemosabe is a nice average weight of 8lbs. He's weighed around 8lbs for his adult life so maybe he just looked heavier to you when he was younger because he had his quills out more often? He's definitely calmed down over the last decade and gotten more comfortable with the camera and being close to me during film shoots, and when he lays his quills all the way against his body he looks much smaller. He's basically the size of a medium/small cat and then add quills, lol.

[@LydiaTarine12]

@@animalwondersmontana I'm glad to hear he's more comfortable in front of the camera now. I remember seeing a comment about the difference someone noticed between him and other porcupines like him and that he seemed like a bit of a tense fellow. ^_^

Animal Wonders has helped be have a better bond with my parrots, we have 4 of them and each one has its own needs and care, we have a cockatiel, green cheek conure, quaker, and a African Grey, the quaker and the African Grey seems to demand more attention, they just love being around humans...

Question: so I’m only 12 (almost 13) but I thought about it and I wanna be just like you when I grow up. I just wanna know what do I have to do in college in order to get where you are now? Also, I would like to know some more stuff about green cheek conures. I have one right now and his name is ollie( we just had a blood test last week to find out his or her gender last week) but I just want you to know i really look up to you but, and thank you 🙏🏼. 🦜

[@nefariousyawn]

I hope that Jessi responds to you, but in case she doesn't notice this comment in her busy schedule, I wanted to mention that I think she said in a much earlier video that she studied animal behavior. You are already on the right track though, just by asking these kinds of questions, and thinking so far ahead. To get the most engagement and the most knowledge with animals, other options are zoology, or veterinary nursing (sometimes called Veterinary technician), but regardless of the degree, your own passion will take you there. Good luck!

I have a question about cockatiels. I am thinking about getting one as a pet but I don't know where I should place its cage. Should it be close to a window? Could I have it near my bed? I am asking you because I have been watching your videos for a while and I know I will receive a correct and experienced answer.

[@TheSwanbear]

Hello, I'm an experienced bird owner! I'd suggest you put the cage near a window, because birds need a lot of light during the day to have a complete day/night cycle (also a bird UV-lamp to get the right type of light). However - if the cage is in direct sunlight, it's important to provide them with a cover that will give them some shade in one part of the cage, so the birds can choose if they want to be in the sun or not. You can absolutely have the cage near your bed, but please be aware that birds are MESSY! Food, feathers and feather dander gets everywhere, and this might not be something you want in your bed. I vacuum my place several times per week because of this. So those are some things to keep in mind! Also, consider getting a pair of them - they are incredibly social birds, and a friend of the same species will make their lives so much better in every aspect. Wishing you all the best!!

[@georgekkou8057]

@@TheSwanbear thank you so much for your response, I will keep your words in mind. However I have one more question. Is it bad for the bird if the cage is placed near a central heating radiator? Your answer will be greatly appreciated.

Chopsticks looked a little uncomfortable when you brought him out. ruffled feathers, breathing fast, and not moving around much. did he just get woken up from a nap?

[@animalwondersmontana]

Little Chopsticks ❤. This is how he's behaved ever since we started working on target training with him. He's become sensitized to sticks and gets very nervous if he thinks they're anywhere near. I'm working on building our relationship back up, but it takes time. Also, he's breathing fast because he just flew around the room twice :)
