New Pin Designs, Kiki Vet Visit & Packaging Begins!

It's always good to take cats in when you're worried. I took my 13 year old cat for blood work. Turns out she has the very early stages of kidney disease, so now she's on a special diet.

[@naomiwitten6454]

My cat, Toast, woke up from a dead sleep when Kiki started meowing in the crate, and he looked very concerned.

[@ErzaFairyTailErzaScarlett]

Mine too 😂❤️

[@blackcatproductions3]

I played it for my black kitty Quinn and she looked pretty worried too, I was surprised, usually kitties in videos don't concern her, she must have known it was a fellow black kitty LOL. Also, what an ADORABLE name, Toast. :D

[@heatheranne1582]

Have you ever try make your own Washi tape or design Washi tape

[@BumbleBaylee]

I've considered it, but I don't have plans to do it right now.

[@SestraVixen]

Pro tip! Since each envelope gets a thank you card anyways, and every envelope will be used for shipping a pin or item, put the thank you cards into each envelope as you're staging the envelope pulling basket (before you start printing labels). Welcome to the world of thermal label shipping btw! (I work for a fortune 200 company and ship 10-500pcs a day depending on what project is going on lol) It's so much more efficient and time saving! I'm so happy you like your printer 😁 I love mine! Also! Check out a dollar store for tubs for the pins! They have a TON of sizes, and shapes! You can also print & tape a small pic on the front of each tub/bin to make the right bin easier to find it the pins aren't facing up or if you start to get a lot of styles.

[@hypurnova]

Brush the bebes everyday to lower the chance of them swallowing excess hair to lower the chance of hairballs. There's also food designed to help digest easier and help with hairballs. Also, it's quite possible she's eating too quickly (kibble) and not chewing completely and having trouble digesting full pieces of food causing her to vomit. Just a few little tips that might help. Hope all is well with little Kiki and she gets back to her awesome regular self soon! ❤❤

[@TykitFleine]

You could always have the labels include both stickers and enamel pins on them and then just sharpie off what isn't included, so if it's just a pin you cross out the sticker? :)

[@boodarkoart3656]

Tykit Fleine that’s a good idea! My paper company does that, works well

Hey Baylee, My cat Mira used to throw up a lot as well, we took her to the vet and she was prescribed medication. She acted totally normal and was always a constant eater. However soon she started becoming skinnier and skinnier and all she wanted was food. We took her to the vet only to find out that she had a tumour near her kidneys and that it had grown huge (the only reason why the vet could suddenly feel it). The vet told us that nothing could be done as the surgery was too risky and would probably be unsuccessful. So we had to put her down. Just watch very closely for more signs of sickness in Kiki. Mira had no out of normal behaviour except for the throwing up.

[@umisoul]

It’s really nice ordering and be able to see how much care and work you put in it. Really appreciate the hard work Baylee!💕

[@patriciaraposo1411]

My cat is 7yo and throws up when he eats too much or too fast or he spent some time without eating. Vet says that despite that, he's pretty

[@Jellekee__]

I'm unsure how old Kiki is, but my oldest cat is about 16 now and she throws up if she eats too much cause she literally munches all of it down in seconds, we have another cat but she doesnt eat as much, so if theres left over from her the oldest eats all the rest of hers too which makes it too much for her to eat in too little time making her throw up

[@CelticStar87]

Jellekee our oldest cat is about 15 years old now. She had been losing weight over the past few years but was recently diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and kidney disease . The vet put her on a thyroid medicine and she’s since gained a lot of the weight back and is also on a kidney medication and special renal food. They’re not exactly sure what stage she’s on as far as her kidneys go, but her last check up a couple weeks ago he didn’t seem overly concerned because one of her levels was still normal and if it had been elevated or low he would have been a lot more concerned. Overall she acts like an old cat but she’s still kicking. I take my calico in Saturday for her wellness check up so the vet can renew her license (here in my county - it could be the whole state - everyone who owns a cat or dog has to have a tag/license for them that’s assigned through a vet’s office). My calico will be 5 this June.

[@BumbleBaylee]

Kiki is a fairly slow eater. She licks at her food for a few minutes before she even starts eating it. Meanwhile, Midna takes gigantic bites. 😅

[@TheWorldofRobbie]

I feed my cat the gastrointestinal fiber response food from royal canin and it is truly a miracle food. Before, I tried everything from sweet potato, multiple different wet food brands, added water to everything etc. but he had horrible constipation and blockage that was so painful for him he'd scream while passing his poops and would toilet all over the house. Once I switched, he was instantly cured. I hope the diet is working for Kiki as well! My vet recently told me that I shouldn't alter his diet too much or the royal canin food won't work. She specifically said if his diet isn't at least 90% comprised of the royal canin then it's almost worthless for his GI tract. Just thought I should let you know what my vet had to say in case it was at all helpful for you. Good luck Kek!

[@KayleyAnneF]

Aww, Kiki bb 💖 I had to take my little bb to the vet just over a year ago for a very similar reason. The vet gave her some liquid paraffin to help her pass the fur. My poor munchkin, she had me so worried with the amount of throwing up. I have heard a small spoon of olive in their food once a week or even putting some Vaseline on their paw for them to lick it off helps to coat either the fur or their insides to help fur pass through. Fingers crossed Kiki is just suffering from the same thing and she'll be A-ok in no time

[@MetalMouth6963]

My cat literally got a cat flu a few months ago. He was throwing up if he ate and would not let anyone touch his tummy(his favorite scratch spot) and he was sleeping more than normal Also best way to see if a cat is dehydrated or not is to pull up the scruff of their neck. If it goes down quickly they are hydrated and if it stays up they are dehydrated

It's honestly so cool and inspiring seeing how far you've come from you first videos to now; not only art-wise but also on the business side. Keep up the amazing work!

[@beccaemily5171]

my cat is having this exact problem!! she had fluid and antibiotis and also anti nausea stuff as well, even blood work that came back clean. after a week of worrying about her i had to switch her food to a rachel ray one for sensitive tummies and shes been a lot better! i know all cats are different but my cat just went through this so i hope i helped even a little! my cat is 13 though (my cat also had a UTI in the beginning of her having this issue though but it went away fast)

[@BumbleBaylee]

Aww, I'm sorry she had to go through that, and I'm glad she's better! I'm thinking we will also switch to a sensitive stomach formula.

[@beccaemily5171]

@@BumbleBaylee i hope it helps! poor kitties D: my other cat is all jelly because she doesnt have the same food 😂 ill probably switch her just for the heck of it and because she's nearly 9 anyway and might benefit from it

[@huynhthu4]

I know you’ve already taken her to the vet, but recently my cat was throwing up a lot and had an upset stomach, and we put her on a leash and took her outside and she instinctively ate grass which made her feel 100% better. You could make try that. We did it 3 days in a row just for about 5 minutes at a time.

[@sunrise351]

Oh!! i don't know if you've heard about it but they make anti hairball gel medicine, and it is a blessing! My old cat used to get terrible hairballs and we would use that to help them pass along. My other cat is sick right now and needs to be given an antibiotic pill every 12 hours as well as an anti nausea pill and we crush it up and put in it a high calorie gel filled with vitamins and smear it on her paw. So if Kiki isn't a pill taking cat, like completely refuses to take them, maybe try the gel. I have read that they sometimes can cancel out the medicine, so if you decide to try the gel make sure to call the vet and make sure it's going to be okay.

[@samuraigeisha]

Our tortie Eclipse used to do that and they diagnosed her with a sensitive tummy. we changed her food to halo and later to the blue buffalo brand for sensitive stomachs and it really helped her; she stopped throwing up within a few days of her being on the food.

[@Tithenannis]

i dont know what kind of food theyre getting but i had the same problem this christmas with one of my cats, and it turned out to be food allergy. they have been getting hypoallergenic food since (which i am sure has more variety in brand in north america) and she hasn't been throwing up ever since. if its not health related it might be a good idea to get them slow feeder bowls which prevents them to gobble down their food.

[@xMsCakeBanditx]

Took me like 4 hours to do about 100 orders, I’m glad you got a new system that cuts down your time spent packing! That’s amazing, I couldn’t imagine trying to do 350!

[@BumbleBaylee]

That's pretty fast!

[@RogueSilver13]

My little cat Ciri had some stomach issues a while ago too. I took her in and nothing was wrong with her and they told me to swap her to a gentle food, and she hasn’t had any issues since then. I hope it’s just a food thing with Kiki and nothing is wrong with her

[@EmilyArts]

These vlogs make me so happy! ☺️ I hope Kiki is okay too!

[@SHH_Art]

If your board is thin and you are using guesso, you can paint an X on the back. Corner to corner and it will help to keep the board strait. When guesso dries it sometimes "shrinks" which causes bowing. This is what I do when I am painting.

[@BumbleBaylee]

It was bent before I did anything to it. It wasn't the gesso.

[@SHHItsJustLife]

​@@BumbleBaylee okay. The only other thing that I can suggest is to maybe steam the board before you prime it. This way you can weigh it down to flatten it back out. Thank you for your reply and I really love your work. :) Also this is my main account I follow you on both. lol

[@animelova834]

Could you use something like a magazine file holder for your pins when you get more designs? You'll still be able to reach in but they would take up less space for more pin designs.

hey baylee. i am glad that kiki has it better but, OMG i have had problems with my cat kingo in the last 3 weeks where he throws up all dry food but he is better now

[@KimHelms01]

With Kiki throwing up, it may be the food. My Simba was diagnosed with IBD and a food change was crucial to his well-being. I urge you to research cat food because Royal Canin and Hill Science Diet are both vet recommended, but both are horrible quality since they don't really have meat (and cats are obligate carnivores so they need meat). I highly recommend a raw diet for cats, but do your own research, too.

[@avnerim]

Hope Kiki feels better soon. Good to hear it nothing bad. And I love the little ducky pin.

[@hilarymcallister8846]

[@MyHatBites]

Our older boy has always suffered with IBS and goes through bouts of vomiting. I have to change up his diet and give him just boiled ground chicken for a week or two to help settle his tummy. Maybe try that?

[@heavensangel10]

My kitty lily was doing the same thing and our vet told us it’s possible that she developed an allergy to her food. I would Suggest changing food for a bit and see if that helps

How often do you deworm your cats? You could ask your vet about it, because even if they are indoors only they can get "friends". I hope Kiki gets better soon.

[@CelticStar87]

Definitely something to ask about if they aren’t already on something since she had been letting them outside in that enclosure thing. Not sure how long it would take to start seeing signs (I’m gonna say not long) but definitely something to ask about. It could be food related. One of our cats used to throw up a lot but we figure it was because either 1) she ate too much or 2) one of the dry foods didn’t agree with her (or a combination of both). We feed two different types of dry food (same brand) - mainly because the vet wants my calico on a grain free food. We used to just mix the two together but now they’re in separate bowls and haven’t had much throw up since splitting the food. Poor Kiki, can’t be fun feeling icky. Since she’s acting normal, I want to say it’s probably food/digestive related. Even if Midna isn’t affected, cats are like humans, different cats can have different reactions to things.

[@Omg-Em]

I can’t wait for the I’m a little ducky swimming in the water pins omg

[@cathrenriddler45]

If you did stickers also you could just ctrl+f search stickers and pin and then it would highlight for you. [Also can search other things and have them highlighted] If the program you are using has search anyway. [Or browser] Lol maybe?

I keep forgetting to ask if you know how to create mail merged labels from an excel database into MS word? It would make your local labels easier to do instead of handwriting them all.

Hey you use the catit water fountain right? I was using that for a while and my cats loved it. And then my boy cat Loki started throwing up and having diarrhea and I didn’t know what was causing it. Turn out that even tho I was cleaning it the recommended amount and changing the filter and stuff the fountain was growing mold in it and my cats were drinking that. I got rid of the fountain and got my cats medicine and they are fine now. Maybe it’s the fountain causing Kiki to throw up?

[@waresforcoinart5568]

I think you’d be okay keeping it just enamel pins honestly. Since you do have stickers options on red bubble. Or if so make sure your pins are sold out then do a limited run of stickers then do pins when the stickers sell out and so on.

[@justtwinning842]

Once again, it's so inspiring to watch you work hard each and every day and I appreciate and totally respect your determination. I also hope Kiki is feeling better. My 4 year old cat is losing weight a bit too, but I think it might just be a winter thing for her (she goes out in warm weather and catches mice - we live on a farm - and hasn't been able to for a while). I'm glad you followed your gut about Kiki and took her in asap! Do you have any advice for someone looking into doing enamel pins? Things you've learned? You've been so awesome and open about the process, but I'm just wondering if you've found anything particularly helpful along the way. I have a Kickstarter opening up soon and I want to create an enamel pin as a special gift 😊 Thank you so much for all you do and for continuing to update on all things!

idk if you already have this design but you should have kiki on a window behind a stained glass vase, and her tail is showing and the word Mew is painted on as if she’s saying that. idk was just an idea that i think would sell out or be a good seller.

Good luck kiki, get better soon ❤️

[@janessachico9085]

Maybe give Kiki her soft food mixed with hard food. That's what happened to my pet and he started throwing up and going #2 alot sometimes with diarrhea and he couldn't handle just the soft food so it make it more solid I gave him a half a can of soft to test it mixed with some hard food and he is doing alot better. Its something I believe that is because the soft food is to soft instead of solid which is alot to explain but I can more in detail if u want but I been giving him a can of food of the soft food and the hard food mixed and he has been completely fine now. Maybe it will help Kiki it wouldn't hurt to try but if u want to go in more detail on why I could probably explain it if you want to know.
