  1. Very useful tip with the cat squishing. My sister’s cat hates my mom’s cat, so we keep them separate. One day my mom forgot to close the door and my sister’s cat wanted to fight. I got him to calm down by doing the squishy thing. It does work! Thanks! :3

  2. My cat always puts "me" on his shoulder and I don't mind that so much, but I bloody hate it when he starts squishing me!

  3. Problem that i got is

    1st – why i'm watching this, i don't have cat

    2nd – most comments got 1k likes and so on with very least reply (is this glitch?)

  4. That cat is an actor my cats never stay they run away and hide under the couch by the way what the heck cats don’t like getting squished

  5. My cat loves to be held but I pick her up a different way. I stretch out my left arm and put her body over it holding her back feet secure then use my other arm to hold her chest and front legs. So I’m letting the cat be sort of laying on my arms as a platform while still holding her close. Works well. I don’t like when people hold cats hanging down limbs at all. So I make sure my kitty feels secure with legs tucked on my arms as I carry her around.

    Great video. Good information.

  6. I'm learning to become a vet and please I'm praying I'll get there one day because there's absolutely nothing I adore more than looking after animals.
