We're building infrastructure to accomodate future growth such as barns, duck house, 7 coop chicken house, water hydrants, planting an orchard, building a garden etc. Chickens, ducks, geese, mini pigs, rabbits, a bunch of barn cats and two old english sheepdogs make up our team here at the farm. Please follow along on our journey of transforming this place into something special.

Maybe I'm allergic to videos where people are really wholesome and open about caring for the animals they live and work with. Because I'm tearing up real bad right now...

[@bettyc.5070]

So awesome !!!! Lucky babies to have such a loving care giver as you❤️

[@andresdelcampo6733]

Wonderful cat cave indeed. I love how cats can climb into so many places.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

❤️❤️

[@pollydunn3191]

As a crazy cat lady that can't have real cats because I have 2 grandkids allergic to cats I'm envious. Instead I have 20 fake cats. 🤣 I do like that they don't shed and I don't need a litterbox.🤣

[@janetgies8698]

I wanna be your Cat in my next life. ❣️👏🏻🐈‍⬛🐈😻

[@moojuice4337]

I'm so happy to see working cats so well cared for. Look at all that cat mojo-- they're clearly living their best life :)

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

I’m happy to do it too, love to sit in my chair and have the cats jump up on me for hugs.

[@elisaa9981]

When I die, I want to be reborn as one of your barn cats. What a life!

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

😉

[@T35629]

Thanks for making the cats a cat cave.

[@brendathornes8144]

That cat cave is the best and they love it. They are like kids when they get new toys. I love how they watch and and test your work 😂I love how you care for ALL you farm babies❤❤❤😻🐓🦢🦆🪿🐇🐖

[@kellyjohnson3617]

What a wonderful place you have made for your kitties. When you have that many cats, they have plenty of places to have together as well as alone time. They are such happy cats. Good job cat dad!

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Very true, I’ve seen Dexter chasing Chunk so at least lots of room for Chunk to get away 😂

[@Sandra-pk7pi]

Mango and Chunk climbing up the ladder 😍😂

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

I always have my phone ready to catch all the funny or interesting shots. The cats are so curious about everything they need to investigate.

[@akw0523]

Chad, you are a wonderful person…I love how you adore your fur babies ❤🐈😊

[@emmmoo8631]

those cats are so happy sitting back watching their daddy make em all this stuff!!

[@markymarkvancity]

Bubbles reminds me so much of my sweet little princess who recently passed away. Thank you for taking such amazing care of all these kitties.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Oh no, so sorry to hear that. Take the time you need, I understand your feelings very well.

[@cassandragriswold7521]

A Daddy who loves ❤️ his kitties. I love mine too. ❤ They are definitely curious. CATHOUSE HEAVEN !!! Who wants to chase mice?

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

😄

[@grahambaker9377]

The best looked after barn cats in the world

[@cindym7234]

I am SO blown away with the cat house you created for the claw crew! It is absolutely amazing Chad! I have 7 cats, it was 8, but I just lost my Bandit on March 14th. 😢 He was 11. Cancer. Anyhow, my 7 cats would love a cat house like that. You have inspired me to convince my husband to make something like that for our cats! 😉 Lol! Love from Texas ❤

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Oh no rip Bandit. Tell him that a lot of what I built during then can just be done using scrap materials and a bit of paint goes a long way 😉

[@cathymcgee1674]

What you do for the cats is awesome. They love you, just as much as you do for them. Love seeing the ideas you come up with. ❤😊

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Wow, thank you!

[@skrtskit1521]

Those kitties gonna want a spa next. What a great guy you are to provide homes to these feline friends. 💕🎶

[@GypsyIrishNewfieNomad]

After 15 months of being in Mexico , I'm back in Ontario now. Your video's have been a Blessing. Love the Farm.....Go Bruins 😊

[@kathrinekerns8398]

The claw crew hard at work. They have their very own condominium. Cool 😎🆒😎

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

😀

[@leonafaryna7617]

It’s a wonderland for whatever they need❣ Love abounds in every direction 😘🐾💞❤💜🌟🐾

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Yeah I like the way it turned out, easy to clean and space if ever I wanna make cool additions.

[@colly1952]

Your cats are in cat heaven! I'm sure no other barncats have such a fun place to hang out.

[@aquarius9900]

Bubbles investgating is great sign. Also she looks happy. Good job with her. Shes so much better then before.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

She does look comfortable but I haven’t been able to pet her for a few weeks. She’s a tough one to crack. Cutie pie too she should be my parrot cat.

[@tracylambert7185]

You can tell the cats are loving it ❤❤❤❤❤

[@watchersmith806]

Love you so much Chad for taking such good care of your fur babies 😻😻😻🥰

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

❤️❤️❤️

[@donnac7057]

I love how well you treat your animals! :)

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

You are so kind

[@madelineelliott5002]

This is wonderful, Chad! The cats look so appreciative of your hard work too 🥰

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

[@clausjepsen586]

Amazing... Thats what i call a cat lover... Love from Denmark

[@denisegilmore88]

I hope those kitty cats realise how lucky they are to have such a thoughtful friend.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

❤️❤️

[@elisel3984]

That cat house is what dreams are made of.

[@ZippedUpKitz]

You can make you some clocks out of those circle cutouts! Put some "ears" and a "tail" on the and they can be your cat clocks!

[@vazeenadoul9275]

I love the vibes 💚💚💚 🐾 The cat cave is a haven of peace and joy 🍀🌹

[@junoestro]

your cat content is the cutest stuff in the world this is so adorable

[@BenjamintheTortoise]

Such a wonderful video!! I enjoyed every minute of it... Your cats are so sweet and so well-cared for... They are definitely enjoying their cat cave! Much love to you all 💕😊

[@carolynracine6380]

Lucky kitties! Nice job!

[@hazelsmith2]

It looks good. I did out a warm shed for my two cats, back in the 80s. My mum wasn't keen on cat's and because they were strays, it was up to me to care for them. My mum did warm to them in the end. When the very cold weather came, I was allowed them in. I did everything for them from carpet, heating electric, pictures you name it they had it. My two cats loved it. Now I have a cat that lives with me in my home.❤

[@nokchilton1562]

Cat cave looks marvellous and all kitties are so happy and adorable 😻😻

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

❤️❤️

[@IzzyOnTheMove]

Now those are some happy cats! Now you made me want to build some sort of structure in my yard for my cat, as he spends most of his days outside on a long leash. Would be cool if he had a little shack, especially in winter. DIY projects are so fun!👍

[@96Logan]

I can't get enough of these videos. Your "Cat Cave" is awesome! I love the amount of effort and theory crafting you do with it. Seems like a wonderful project that both you and your working cats enjoy. God bless you, your farm, and your cats

[@carlapierle8623]

The cat cave is fantastic! So many places to safely climb and hide and play!! If I was a cat I would want you to adopt me.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Haha YES!!!

[@petsandpaintings4596]

This is amazing i must say they are happy cats 🐈

[@d_must4309]

2:10 The master electrician and his apprentice do a final check of the installations. That's professionalism for you

[@ThatGalShyfly]

Chad, thanks for being on KZbin. You showed up on our autoplay one day and my daughter who was almost 3 months old fell in love. She's now almost 5 months old and her face still lights up when she sees you and your animals! Keep up the sweet work my friend!

[@suzannetaylor6382]

Your fur babies say thank you ❤️❤️

[@Augustine-xv5zj]

Chunk looks just like my cat🙂

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

He has the softest fur of all our cats, it’s like silky smooth.

[@claudiarusso6702]

This is a vlog of ❤❤❤!!! Chad, this cat cave is fantastic! The Claw crew have a "penthouse" to chill for the night 👏👏👏👏😹🤣. What a delightful vlog as always, love all of them. Thank you for making my day.😊👏👏👏💪💪💪👍

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

You're the best!

[@micah06v8]

The cat area is looking amazing! You may want to be careful with storing their treats out in the open like that. I've had several cats that figured out that once it's open, if they knock it off the shelf the lid will pop off when it hits the ground and then they can help themselves to all the treats they want because you're not there to take it away! 😂

[@kaitlyn888]

Each and every one of them have their own unique and wonderful personalities. I take great joy watching my five kitties and their personalities explore the area that I’m in they play they interact with one another. It’s like a television show. Makes me smile and feel good. I guess that’s why so many people have animals in their life they really do help with mental emotional wellness so it’s nice to give back to them!

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

I have a hard time to get things done on the farm when I let the crew out. I spend waaay too much time watching them, filming them etc. love them so much.

[@janemenebroeker1672]

Love your cats❣️

What lucky cats!! Nice job Chad

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

😁

[@KatySimpsonLive]

So lovely to see how much you love those ‘moggies’ as we call them in the UK. I really felt Dexter was thanking you for the cat tree you bought them: he loves it doesn’t he!

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

He was, he’s very good to me.

[@LindaKieliszewski-jd5qu]

Your videos are sweet with the cats, seeing the 4 geese in pond was a pure joy. Thinking with Fozzy bear, if u kept him in cat cave every other day, he couldn't chow down on all the kills of the other cats, we may see a slimmer version of Fozzy bear😂.

[@toriam15]

I love the cat clubhouse!

[@hildepedersen8955]

The most spoiled barn cats ever! I love how you take such good care of all of ure animals. Much love all the way from Norway

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

❤️❤️

[@kaynichelle7982]

Such a lovely and wholesome video! Very soothing to watch! ❤

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

You are so kind

[@QuietCottage]

I love what you have done for the kitty kats!!! This encourages me to order a new climbing perch for my kitty.

[@barbaraalbert9071]

Wonderful job, Chad! It was like Christmas morning for the Claw Crew, and I think they will be so happy There is something for each of them and so many places to curl up and get cozy when they need a rest. Will they ever want to go back outside?😀

[@judyfalkosky-qf8tt]

My cat is watching your cat barn video and wants to come live with you. 😊

[@sharonroconnellandcritters]

You're doing a great job making the cathouse fun for your fur babies! I'm getting great ideas for my five from your video! They are all so cute! Bubbles is such a tiny cutie!! Love them all - Fozzy making biscuits yay!!!

[@KittyMomma223]

Your animal family members are so lucky to have you! A couple suggestions-make a cover for plug outlet on the rafter by the moon window board. Secure the new cat tree so it won't tip over when the cats get the zoomies and chase around on it. For the spring shed, get some push broom heads with natural bristles and screw them on the corners at cat level - let's them brush themselves. Putting them outside or in the catio may cut down on the hair in the cave. Or put a bench/grooming station outside so you can brush them outdoors. Its a good bonding activity too. You may also want to get an air purifier to reduce allergens if it bothers you. If you paint the floor or get some inexpensive vinyl flooring (sheet) that you can lay down like a rug will make it easier to sweep/clean-up. My cat is very jealous!!

[@dawnth531]

Loving the new Cat House additions, the cats have a lovely place to sleep and hang out. Hope you're having some success getting the ducks to love their new pond as well.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Yup the ducks have been in

[@johnennis7716]

Awesome. Thank you for sharing this. These are the luckiest farm cats. 😀👏👍

[@doriskuhberger8559]

You did very good with the cathouse. Good job Chad. I use a slicker brush to brush the winter and summer coat. It works great to brush out the undercoat. I tried several different brushes. The slicker one is the best. Thank you for sharing. Love and Blessings to you all. ❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏 Doris, Penrith 🇦🇺🦘

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

I should too I think thats why when I let them out they roll around trying to shed it

[@doriskuhberger8559]

@@HiddenSpringFarm 👍

[@HerDyingVoice]

Cats nibble on each other to show affection, so if any cat gives you a little bite during pets, it's just them showing affection towards you.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

That’s how I feel too, it’s just like little love bites. Like they know I’m looking out for them. If it was a real bite I’d know it and it would be accompanied by hissing and clawing.

[@scootymcfloof]

This space you’ve continued to create for your cats is incredible!! I can see just how much they love it ❤ and it looks so cool! If I was Fozzy, you bet that would be my sleeping spot too haha 😂

[@Janet-bp9ug]

I love your kitties and your duck pond is awesome

[@CatsGlobe]

Absolutely love this idea! Can't wait to see the kitties enjoying their new clubhouse! 😻🏠

Right on! 🤙

[@lindam2090]

I have a nice catio for my 4 cats but I watch you and think maybe I am slacking and need more. Thank you for being so good to them and caring so much.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Well I’d say that if you’ve given them a catio then that’s more than what most cats get. You’re doing just fine but if you get a fun idea or two from me that’s great too 😀

[@_Jolyn]

Lucky kitties! Maybe replace the pompom balls with plastic balls that have holes in them. So their nails won't catch, and it would keep them entertained longer.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

I can see those fluff balls breaking off soon anyway but the plastic ball is a good idea. Cheers.

Great thing about cat beds is they can just be tossed in the washer and then the dryer and boom, done.

Dexter reminds me of a smaller version of my cat, Simon. He's a 25lb black bombay cat. Basically a mini panther. Very friendly & focused on what catches his attention like Dexter.

[@janetclark6867]

You are so good to the cats. I luv cats and dogs. I have a cat named Felix. He said Meow to the cat house. He luvs it. I have been watching all your past videos from the beginning and truly enjoying each one of them. Sorry you lost the other cats. It really does hurt the heart to lose a pet. Until the next time, have a great day. By the way, your videos are excellent and the audio is great. Good Job.
