I absolutely agree with your answer and insight for the last question. Growing your fame is flying, and once your up that high, the smallest thing can cause you to fall. There’s a lot that people of the general public to know about fame, and really someone that’s famous is just the same as you and me: in the end, we’re all human and none of us are perfect. Great editing on this video Victoria~ 💕

[@liachixa2418]

I would like to thank you, Victoria. You showed me good hamster care and helped me treat my hamster with respect and the love that she deserved. Her name was Scooter, and she was a long haired Syrian hamster. She truly was a happy hamster. Unfortunately, she passed recently, but she was getting older. I miss her so much already, but I do not believe this is the end of my hamster journey.

I will not lie I was expecting you to be 5'11" or something 😭 you have very tall energy

[@SeaDrive300]

It's funny how we all see the same visual clues as to someone's height, and all come to different conclusions. Like you, I was surprised to hear that she's only 5'4"; I thought she was probably 5'8". It might have to do with the proportions between torso and legs. I think we tend to think that "leggy" people are tall, while people with a longer torso are thought to be short.

[@VictoriaRaechel]

@@SeaDrive300 this hahaha I got super long legs and long arms and then god was like NO TORSO FOR HER 😅

[@SeaDrive300]

@@VictoriaRaechel No torso for Victoria, hahahaha! Well, I'd say you got a pretty good deal, proportions-wise. Visually, your long legs, long arms, long hair and slender build all shout "tall" to the viewer. As a relatively short man in a height-obsessed culture, I think 5'4" is pretty much the perfect height for a woman! :-)

[@HenryBenry-d9r]

Me and my bestie are around the same height at the moment I’m 5’3 and my bestie is 5’1 (we are both still growing we are not short) But for my bestie god was like ‘no torso for her but super long legs’. But for me god was like ‘not super long legs for her but a ridiculously long torso’.

I am so glad I got an easy-to-please male Syrian, he has never shown any stress behavior, despite only being in a 40 gallon breeder tank. I am so glad I did my research before getting a hamster, I love seeing him thrive and his silly behaviors when figuring out puzzle toys, thank you Victoria (and Erin & Munchie) for all your information that you put out!

[@phoenixluna4137]

You definitely need to get a bigger home for your hamster. Try buying large plastic bins and connecting them with pvc tunnels. Your hamster is probably depressed and that's why he seems east going.

[@person39]

With my past hamster he was in a 40 gallon tank with a lot of bedding, hides, and toys. I though he was an easy to please hamster and I thought he was thriving but he died at 1.7 years old. I agree with what the person above me said, definitely upgrade his cage just to be sure :)

I love seeing someone love the Birds of Paradise plant, because where I live people love it or absolutely loathe it. Because I live in the tropics, they grow extremely well here and are notoriously hard to remove from your landscaping if they’ve had a few years to lay claim. I’ve even seen the plants grow as tall as a house if unkept and allowed to grow as it will.

I really thought she might be ok, but while I was at school yesterday she passed away. We couldn’t do anything to help her 🥺❤️ I miss you so much Nova. I’m sorry you couldn’t have a great life

I studied basic cat basics in my country, the netherlands, and have finished that degree. If you want a lot of cats it is highly recommend to get a maximum of 3 cats per household. When you have 3+ cats in your household you get two or more different social cat groups in your home which means a few cats interect with eachother and like one another but other cats do not. This can be a problem for the social en behavioral situations in your home. So 3 max is highly recommeded. But of course look at your cat. If your cat is a solitary type of cat do not get more. That is the tip I wanna give people and you for when you want another cat in the future. Love this video to get to know you better. You are my favorite youtuber because you love pets as much as I do.
