It finally happened - Julien visited our animal sanctuary

[@littleaudity]

julien saying stompy gives kermit vibes and then stompy interrupting winnies section is so perfect

[@dewberry150]

I was expecting to hear "Kermit it's not about you" lol

[@Chip_Is_A_Gamer]

"Jenna, my wife"

Not gonna lie I got emotional when he said that

[@TheHarlequin2]

I’m gonna fucking sob 😭

maya saying “I’ve never been starstruck for a collab before” real

[@raisingh4le]

And then immediately dumping Georgie dirt on Julien. Relatable. 😂

[@maisytube]

wait until jodi (quarterjade) comes to alveus 😭

[@dhdragon555]

Honestly there just something about Julien and his charisma that makes me starstruck too. I don't watch many of his videos or streams but when I do, I'm utterly enraptured.

[@julyette3402]

hearing julien say "who he fightin" to tortellini made me so happy. I miss jenna and julien content so much

[@chloe5911]

Lol i love that Julien's lower third intro was just "ehhhh bep bep bep bep bep"

[@DieannuhhDGAF]

Same lol

[@danielleking262]

I laughed so hard at that! 😂

[@TheRavenfish9]

Julien: [tries to pet any other animal] Stompy: [slides into frame like Kermit]

[@Kiki-reads]

Loved Julien’s collab! He and maya had such great synergy, you could see his passion for animal welfare and listened so well. Maya revealed today on alveus’ stream that Jenna & Julien made a very kind donation to Alveus. They’re planning on using it to install a permanent splash pad for Stompy!

[@Uniquely-Unoriginal]

That's amazing! YAY Jenna & Julien!!!

[@celadonna237]

www.twitch.tv/videos/2137104734?filter=archives&sort=time Here's the clip about Jenna and Julian's donation if anyone wants to see it. (26:49:48 is the timestamp if the VOD doesn't open to the right spot for some reason)

[@mikabee__]

YAYYYY never ending chicken baths

[@Barbyng]

yooo!!!! thats so cool!!!!

[@Himmel-Himmel]

it’s so refreshing to watch, maybe because i know of julien but, he has such an easy presence about him.

[@caitlinbrett4228]

I love that he’s talking to all the animals the way him and Jenna talk to their dogs 😭

[@dvckduckgoose]

Julien is probably one of the best collabs so far. i don't what content he does but he was so attentive and patient and not obnoxious or dismissive like some other big streamers that have come before

[@midnightz7]

Absolutely. They've had a good run of collab streams over the last few weeks. I haven't been following for that long, but I've often ended up closing the videos after a few minutes because the streamer guests act like dumbasses. But Julien was great in this video, Valkyrae was great, and Pokimane/Hyoon/Aria were great even though I'm not familiar with any of them. Hopefully this will be a consistent trend, I think experiences like this are a much better fit for Alveus and a lot more likely to create positive associations with the viewers.

[@marsinator3675]

From memory Julien is very passionate about animals, he's fostered dogs and has a tattoo of a beautiful cow he sponsored named buttercup

[@iseetheWAYVision]

I find him to be more of a youtuber tbh and hes very passionate about animals so i was excited for this collab

[@MewoAsh]

Julien does a lot of streaming content from what I'm aware of! He also does some cooking youtube videos too (i haven't watched his videos in years though)

[@aset2663]

in case you're wondering, Julien not only cooks, but he also games, AND he's a rescue greyhound dog foster dad!

[@JBlouinMusic]

stomping taking over winnies section is a perfect representation of kermit during any of the other dogs birthdays

[@M0anaBanana]

The way stompy closed his eyes for the hug 😭🥲🫂

omg so true 😭

[@QUAK1EZ]

[@diorsse]

who is julien

[@alitasdepollo2752]

@@diorssehe’s a twitch streamer and KZbinr. His twitch channel used to be a shared channel between him and his wife, Jenna marbles, before she went offline. Before that though he was making content for KZbin, and started with mostly (if not exclusively) vlogs. A lot of us were introduced to him and his growing content creation career via him starting to date Jenna back in the day. For a lot of us in I’d say the 25-35 age range that existed in the online space Jenna was a huge influence/entertainment/role model/internet big sis type of vibe and Julien became a big part of that as well throughout their relationship and the content they produce/d.

[@NecroticIce]

juliens stompy hug made me tear up LMAOOO im parasocial with these creatures

[@slidewithme]

Julian seems like such a genuine and gentle soul, I've always thought he seems like a great person

[@beeangel259]

The clip of marbles eating then being confirmed by julen accidentally making georgie jump was iconic and solidified the marblesness

[@MyNameIsNyx]

julien had the BEST interaction on the tour we seen so far. the vibes with stompy were crazy.

[@goeticgaia]

This is my favorite partnership. I love him so much. It makes me happy how he never called animals "it"! You can tell he really cares about them and they clearly feel safe and comfortable with him for that reason. So sweet.

[@scrbusaucuparia]

the way he kept apologizing for misgendering Noodle the snake lol

[@quinceyclouds3208]

like Maya, this is also probably the most excited and starstruck I’ve been for a collab

[@clairee-bee]

the clip of marbles eating caught me off guard 😭😭 love that silly old man ❤️

[@KittyPrydeVFX]

I love how this is edited to play like an episode of The Bachelor, but _so_ much better. And good to see Julien! And _did he say FIVE dogs?!_

[@proctorsledge]

yes!! his wife has 2 dogs, Marbles and Kermit, then he got Peach after they got together, and together they’ve rescued 2 retired racing greyhounds and have fostered a few as well. Julien truly is an animal lover.

[@KittyPrydeVFX]

@proctorsledge oh, I knew about Marbles, "an Sermet"/nasti boy, Peachy, and was around for the introduction of Bunny. But other than finding out about the wedding through the internet, I didn't follow Julien after Jenna stopped (though I will sometimes go back to her content, because it's classic and chaotic) So when he said _five,_ I was just like-- "wait, who's the fifth dog?!?!"

[@siena4235]

@@KittyPrydeVFX the fifth one is such a cute black greyhound i can’t even remember their name but they seemed so sweet i think they fostered her and just fell in love and had to keep her

[@whyaddnamehere]

@@siena4235 The 5th dog is a girl named Loni

[@suchnothing]

@@siena4235 Loni actually got adopted out at one point! Then the adopters decided she wasn't a good fit and returned her. Then a few more potential adopters turned her down, and J & J were so hurt and offended on Loni's behalf that they just kept her. I remember Julien talking about it once on his Twitch stream. I still think about it sometimes, because there is actually nothing at all wrong or difficult about Loni, she is literally perfect. Calm, gentle, polite, cuddly, the sweetest girl ever. I can't imagine adopting her and then giving her back. Julien theorized that it could be related to a common prejudice people have about black dogs. They're always the most difficult to adopt out, people just don't want them. Keeping Loni was a great decision for them, because Loni is really good at welcoming new fosters and helping them get comfortable, so she's been a huge help. And Julien absolutely loves her. So I guess it was meant to be.

[@noviceunicorn]

It was really lovely to see Julien with Stompy

omgggg my heart *melted* when Stompy gave him a hug and actually closed his eyes like he was at peace and happy!!!! ❤❤❤

ohh yess simsie would be perfect

love that there's some stardew valley music in this vid, bc julien's been playing lots of stardew lately. its a nice touch ❤

The part when he talked about Bunny and fed Reid had me on the verge of tears. There is truly such a gentleness in Julien that animals can sense ❤

[@Randombeanz7]

The way he kept being reminded of his dogs ❤

[@ShesAaRebel]

There are so many more people just chilling at the live cams now after all of these huge collabs. Many I think came from Julien. I can't think of a more perfect streamer to visit the sanctuary.

[@rinabebii]

omg when that little snippet of the podcast music sent me back. i miss jenna so much! what great parting words from julien!

Anyone else see that orangutan who was recently observed creating its own plant medicine to treat a wound? I need to talk to someone about this!!

[@strawberryshortdrake]

That's so cool I wonder how'd he figured that out

[@Dan-B]

@@strawberryshortdrake high intelligence and a long learning process. Orangutans have relatively long childhoods among apes, the longest after humans (8-12 years, other apes like Chimpanzees and Gorillas leave infancy around 6 years and 3-4 years respectively) in that time they’ll observe their mothers eating/using 400+ species of plant.

I haven't seen Julien in years not since well before Jenna stopped KZbin and it was such a pleasure to see him with the animals. He still has the BEST personality and does our gender proud, the world needs positive male role-models showcasing compassionate masculinity. Such a fantastic collab!

[@serenityblaze4988]

As a bp owner, pythons are probably the best for people to get used to snakes, theyre large enought to be handled comfortable but they also move so slow and fluidly that its calming to watch

[@amandajackson.83]

True. That's why I adopted my ball instead of another species. She was such a good education animal for people coming over to my apartment who were unfortunately, more likely than not, scared of or uncomfortable with snakes. Thanks to her slow movement and calmness, they wouldn't be fearful for long. Seriously, you could lightly boop her on the nose and she wouldn't even flinch and move her head - a demonstration that helped a lot of people get comfortable with holding her entire body after I gave them her tail to hold first while I made sure she wouldn't curl herself towards them immediately. As soon as you get into calubrid territory, you lose that quality with 95% of them.

"visiting" Alveus; watched the wolves making their first experience in their new home n habitat; and Now, watching highlights of Julien at Alverus. All in 2 days! It's funny that the highlights are on the main channel and the full streams are on the highlights channel. I love that!
