A friend got that "indoor" bird feeder. Not a single bird for six weeks. They went away for a weekend and upon returning there were birds waiting in line to get into it. Really! They would sit on the fence, power lines, tree branches, and as soon as one left the feeder two or three would try to get in at the same time. So give it time.
Especially a partially enclosed one, I suspect. Limited escape routes would be a deterrent for some. Chickadees are often the first to risk our feeders, but wrens are the smartest (quickest to realize that we can’t harm them through the window and knocks on the window when we’re not on top of refilling, lol).
I wanted one of those bird feeders but thought it could be disastrous. instead I got a clear one you can just suction onto a window. took a week or 2 for the birds to come, but then there were a ton and the cats are entertained.
The cat bed you purchased that was attached to a bed is really better in a window. I had one for my cat and she loved it as I had it in a window. She was like Kurt, she loved watching birds. My fur baby who was 18 years old has since passed away earlier this year, but I remember her fondly and I remember how much she liked her window bed.🤗🐕💕
All very cute stuff. I agree the car bed is a bad idea, even for short trips. According to the national Highway Traffic Safety Administration 52% of all accidents happen within miles of our homes. So always using a carrier is best practice. If I were going to use this, it would likely be on those long road trips where you're driving long stretches on highways.
My cats love the mat with the electric ball. What I like is it will randomly start up again & the cats will come running. We had a window bird feeder, but the squirrels got into it & ate all the bird seed. 😕
A while ago, someone had posted a video about that window feeder and how they got a squirrel eating up all the birdseed instead of the promised birds. I think that, and potential bird-window collisions, equates to a terrible product.
Omg I need that one with the ball scurrying around under the mat. I have one cat that only takes interest in "hidey hole" games.. concealed moving items
We have a cardboard bed that's like that cardboard accordion toy. I wonder if Kurt might like the bed version better? It doubles as a scratcher, and because it's bowl-shaped, it's fun to put a toy in there and have them bat it around 😊
Speaking of ads, I keep getting ads for this tool that cuts cardboard into strips so you can DIY cat scratchers. Trying that out could be a cool video.
My work goes through a ton of cardboard. One day i took a bunch home and made a scratch board. My cats love it so much and its lasted ages because its more hardcore than normal ones
You can actually try to scatter the bird food near the bird feeder first to attract bird so it more used to the area before they go inside the bird feeder
I really like that window bird feeder but I would have thrown some seed on the ground near the window so birds know there is food there, but also a stand up bird feeder outside Kurt's window seat would be amazing for him ❤
I have the accordion one, you can by them in pairs and that's what I personally recommend because they attach to each other and makes a bigger one. Our cats really like it!
I have the windows seats and my cats love them! I put a birdfeeder in the yard outside one window and they are enthralled. I also have the first item you showed. They're hot and cold on it, but I have seen them stalk the ball and attack it.
It’s 2103 and Kurt the cat has become the most powerful force in the known solar system only few know the known English language and for all the other languages they have been replaced by kurtish. We have truly became overflowed by cuteness and will never be able to revive the earth back into the humans being the dominant species. I’m only here to spread awareness of the threat to the teraverse known as Kurt!
It takes at least a week for birds to find feeders, typically, and that's when they're in the open. I'd suggest sprinkling seeds on the ground outside the feeder and maybe even putting another feeder outside the window to attract the birds to the window feeder.
I have that nylon circle thing to put a toy in but mine came with a running caterpillar. Didn't generate the interest I had hoped for with either of the 2 cats I tried it with yet they both loved the similar cat motion toy with the nylon cover & the moving arm with feather or twizzler looking toy. Funny, right? Same idea of something moving under a nylon cover but only 1 seemed to b a hit.
@@abrameng Why is Kurt's father so handsome 😻♥️ You must be a supermodel. And your son is blond like you. I see two blond handsome male cats. Please see what I wrote 💛
The bird feeder in my backyard took a while for the birds to notice it. It was on a tree, and I live right next to a forest. Give it some time. Great video by the way. Kurt is so cute!
Video idea: name the video I bought cat toys for myself and try to find cat toys that are human sized and you rate them on how much you think a human sized cat would like them
I bought the mewoofun cat hammock and I could NOT figure out how to install it on my window. I have no idea whether my window isn't "compatible" somehow or what because I'm usually pretty good at following assembly/installation instructions 🤷
If you want the birdfeeder to work. You need to make food visible from outside. The birds are not used to food in that location at all. And can’t see it from the sky. A platform with food outside would attract them and they would then see the inside food- also. Use black oil sunflower seeds
The best thing I ever got my cat was a bird feeder that attached to the outside window by suction, i got it at amazon, and so many birds would come to that feeder, and my cat was entertained all day while I was at work. It is bird feeder, not a cat toy.
The magnetic cat track shown in the video with the cat diving into it is actually two of the same product put together. My guess is that a single one on its own looks too small to most cats to be worth climbing/jumping into. I have a nearly identical one at home that one of the cats here sometimes bats at like a normal track toy, while the other has zero interest. I've considered getting a second one to see if they prefer it bigger, but honestly not interested in sinking more money into a "maybe" when the product as sold is such a flop.
Cats are territorial so the majority of cats don't like cars, travelling or new places...so it's normal for them to freak out are look all around and mew. For travelling the best is an enclosed cat carrier...the inside is darker and cosy which makes them feel safer.
With the birdfeeder in the window, test to make sure that your birds actually like the birdseed that you bought? Put it out where you see birds congregate in your backyard or on a paper plate in the middle of your backyard and see if they eat it within one day. If not, it might just be that you got the wrong bird food. I use regular oat bread from the grocery store or any healthy looking bread brand with little seeds stuck on the outside. Use about two slices and pinch pieces off, the size of a birdseed if possible, I know it's very hard to get that small, but the smaller birds Need the smallest you can pinch or it's too big for them. You can try that as bird food. That should disappear easily within one day. Once you have a food that is proven that your birds in the neighborhood actually eat it, just move the paper plate 3 feet closer to the window every day and they'll eventually see that there's food in that window. Actually in my neighborhood it's more likely that a squirrel Will notice. I used to put peanuts on the windowsill and my cat would Try to pat a squirrel on the shoulder through the window, trying to make friends. Also, the window you choose should not necessarily be next to a door that they see people coming in and out of. They might never dare to come too close to people traffic. And it's quite possible that if they see you while they're inside the device, they will become scared, so maybe a darker room would be better on a sunny day outside. If they see Kurt, too close, they definitely won't come close. I guess it almost has to be a one-way mirror?! Also to fill in the gaps in the framing, you could try weatherstripping foam which comes in a variety of widths. So I just stuff a bunch of that in the gaps and you should get a pretty good seal that no bird will get through and Kurt won't try to see it as a way to open the window for himself.
I have found that cats do much better on car rides being out of a carrier so they can look around. It may not be as safe that way, but there's a lot less agitation and meowing. I like the console seat but would probably want to find a way to attach it closer to the window.
Seems to me the car seat would be very safe. Cats have such good reflexes I think they'd be better off in that than a carrier they couldn't jump out of. Their reflexes are why we say cats have 9 lives.
Hi Abram and Kurt too❤️🥰. You’re such a wonderful dad to your sweet boy Kurt a she is truly appreciative of all the things you being into your home that’s for him too.😺❤️👍🏻 the things you got for Kurt that he didn’t like, he just might end up liking them in the near or far future so, don’t give up on those. Also the car seat for Kurt when you go for a ride or wherever you go, I was wondering for it to be more sturdier for him while you’re driving, are the side handles stretchy? The reason I ask is I was thinking maybe they need to be stretched across and over both front passenger and drivers seats for sturdiness? Just a suggestion. Once again, you’ve made me a proud cat lover and viewer too. You’re an awesome cat daddy for sure. God bless you and Kurt always. Sue M. Clearwater, Florida 😺❤️🥰😘🙏👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻❌⭕️

I guess the birds are not used to look for food inside of someone's window, so they hadn't find it
Yes. It always takes a while for the birds to discover a new feeder. Once one does though they tell the whole neighborhood about it.
I was wondering if perhaps the window looking open was scaring the birds, especially seeing a predator with what looks like open access to them
i love how Kurt is always interested in what ur doing
always involved
I meant vids not kids sorry
Yes, he's a team player for sure❤❤
oyy cevaplanmış türkk 🎉🎉
Yk how humans have soulmates Kurt and him are basically soulmates lol
It takes up to 3 weeks for birds to spot and trust a new bird feeder

@@kellybraun7048also that area might have a very strong cat scent. Birds know when predators are around.
@@kellybraun7048 you know your birds well, bird-man

Damn. I tried that for a couple of months on my window with zero visits. 😢

I have a similar window hammock, and Sebastian swears by it. Easy enough to take the fabric part off for washing.

Those bird feeders don't look like they have a way to lock the flap you use to put seed in. That's a disaster waiting to happen.
We love you Kurt and we always will
Kurt is adorable

My spouse is hooked on that. He has made so many scratchy boxes!
My work goes through a ton of cardboard. One day i took a bunch home and made a scratch board. My cats love it so much and its lasted ages because its more hardcore than normal ones
For some reason, my cat was completely glued to this video. Either she wants the toys, or she has a crush on Kurt.
He's just like that
Both

Kurt controls your algorithm lol.
He's been online alot more than you think Abram. 😆

Love you, Kurt!!!

Tell Kurt I said spspspspspspspsp
I love how Kurt and you always have smth to do and play with it’s good for his enrichment and y’all r hilarious
Kurt: So how much do i get paid?

I also have the first item you showed. They're hot and cold on it, but I have seen them stalk the ball and attack it.
4:20 also the advert was with a kitten and young cats are far more active than older cats.
Kurt is just a chill guy
Aw I wanted the bird feeder to work ❤
same!
Birds might have to find it. Give it some time.
I'd be concerned that burglars would find it while you're away from the house or while you're asleep. Security problem.
I love this Kurt is so cute! MAKE MORE CONTENT!!!!❤❤❤
Kurt is definitely a chill little man

I got the first toy you received. Put the fuzzy ring around the clear part. Let it room around the room and he can chase it.
You should do what ever Kurt touches you buy at petsmart
I can’t decide who I like better, you or kurt
Abram has the dedication and Kurt has the content
True
If a bird gets in Kurt’s got it
7:06 awww his loaf is sooo adoarable!!!
The one under the mat the thing under/inside the mat is a toy on its own you turn it on and it can just roll on your floor

Catnip or spray works wonders when introducing new toys. Just a little goes a long way to mask those foreign new smells.
