Everyone talks about potato and corbin but this lady is a real gem as she has fostered 150 kittens 😸
She sure is! 💎
I couldn't do her job because I wouldn't want to EVER give them away. I would want to keep them all. 😂😂😂😂
Couldn't agree more!! Potato is a riot, Corbin is a beautiful, gentle giant and Karen is one of those true angels on earth. A lot of people talk the talk, but someone like Karen walks the walk. God bless her for all she does to give so many animals in need good homes. Cheers Padmaakrishna and Karen!!

Corbin and Potato should have a children's book written about them. They're adorable.
Absolutely. The Adventures of Corbin and Potato
What a great idea! That would be perfect!! 👍
That would be amazing!

Corbin’s tongue is bigger than the entirety of Potato. How absolutely adorable. Great story.💕
You Understand my Idea of Cute
Fastest bath in history.

@@petert3355Wouldn't the dog licking make the kitten's fur sticky and gross?
@@zukini8763 Nope, just the same as a momma cats tongue doing the job. Just quicker.
I was once walking our family's big 100 pound Golden Retriever. The dog spotted a little girl, like 4, ran over and licked that 4 year old's face from chin to forehead like it was a cartoon. That dog's tongue covered that baby's entire face.
The lick was so gigantic it knocked the baby over and I had to get out of Dodge before the mom showed up.
Fostered over 150 kittens. Good for you, that’s quite the accomplishment. Thanks for doing what you do.💕
In the beginning, Corbin's toenails were almost as big as Potato. God bless Karen for fostering over 100 kittens, along with Corbin.

@@k.m.223 Yes K. M. You're right! Big dogs are so gentle aren't they? The one and only time I ever got bitten by a dog, it was a nasty, little yappy thing that came out of nowhere, I mean I hadn't even seen it, let alone tried to pat it, I was just walking down the street, and it bit me, the little sh*t!!! 😆😅 I was like "What the f**k was that"??? I can't stand those nasty little...ahem, things. Give me a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, or a Doberman any day of the week! (And if you tell my little terrier I said that, I'll deny it!!!)
When Corbin was cleaning potato, he literally flipped over with his tongue, lol!
I know ppl never talk about it but thia is actually a good example of paternal instinct yep dads have instincts too
It's so cool how adult dogs just know the need to be gentle around babies. No matter what breed the are.
Greetings from here to you friend
If they are raised right. I have sadly seen a few stories where large dogs have mutilated kittens as well, whether intentionally or not.
@@paul16451 Yeah, that is very important too. I forget there are a lot of terrible pet parents out there who have no business even owning a pet.
@@paulgerhard2753 Hello friend. =)
When a dog's parental instincts kick in they subconsciously set their mussel to the lowest strength they need for a task ie almost nothing when playing but absolute maximum when running to protect
Corbin's tongue is twice the size of Potato. So cute!!
WOAH WOAH WOAH!!! Let me get this perfectly straight: You comment something that is completely unrelated to the fact that I have two HAZARDOUSLY HANDSOME girlfriends? Considering that I am the unprettiest RUclipsr worldwide, it is really incredible. Yet you did not mention it at all. I am VERY disappointed, dear n

My brother has two Great Danes and they are very gentle, "The Gentle Giant", and are very protective of the cat, Dandy. She sits on the seat of his exercise bike often and swats the Dane's read ends, but without her claws extended, as they pass by, just to let them know who's boss. She was there first.
Hello pleasure to have you here.
Anyone who has fostered that many kittens, along with raising these two muffins, is an absolute hero. Hats off to this lady, she is a special hooman.
I don't know why it's so cute seeing a large dog taking care of a kitten, but I can't get enough of this cuteness!🐱🐶😍
It’s my weakness 😻😻
Jesus is right
We need cuteness these days; that’s for sure.
Many years ago we had a huge black Dane and we had a pure black kitten like potato and Bo really loved him so much our kitten JD would curl up on him and sleep 😴 it looked like Bo had a big growth on his hip area they were buddies forever. That was in the early eighties. Thank You 🙏 for sharing. God Bless. 🙏🙏🌻🌻😊😊🌈🌈⭐️⭐️
They stay in our hearts, no matter the years! Glad you had Bo and JD as friends❤️
Corbin's tongue at the start, totally swamps Potato's whole head.
I want one of those macrame swings for my cats, it looks awesome.
Bless Karen for fostering 150 kittens over the years 🥺😍❤️🙏🏻
The kitten is as big as the dogs paw so cute
I’m imagining Potato going outside for fun (once he’s bigger) and mom yelling, “POTATO” all around the neighborhood to call him home. 🥔 Cutest spud ever! 🖤🐾
What people are giving LIKES to obvious SPAM?? What is wrong with you people???
I too have/had some rather funny names for my cats over the years: Hunka Hunka, Harry Mitts, Tater Tot, Teeny Tiny, Lil Bit, Pip, Schnooky, Sassy Pants, Hop Along, Bo(Bodacious) Ziggy, Zilla(Godzilla),Tripod, Houdini, Hoover, Bobby Cat, Bruiser, Bruce, Biggy Piggy, Guppy, Babay, G.W.-gray & white - after a while you have a hard time coming up with a name . . . and MANY more. P.S. Oh, yes, one of my very earliest cats was Rau, aka as Rauzenheimer.
When I call the cats for chow, I'm quite sure the neighbors are probably saying "there's that crazy neighbor again" and laughing their heads off.
@@timeforthinkers7418.
@@timeforthinkers7418 You deserve an award for the name Tripod alone!!! 👏 I love human names, like Stanley or Dave for cats.
@@amandajones6481 Sweet little Tripod was a 8-9 week old kitten I found with 1 of its hind legs wedged between 2 planks of a neighbor's fence. That precious fur baby had been there for a while struggling to free itself and had maggots in the wound made by his struggles. He bit completely through my thumb while I was trying to free him. I took him to the vet but unfortunately his leg couldn't be saved as the circulation had been impeded for too long. I brought him home and after a week or so he was showing some interest in my cats. Pretty soon he was racing around like nothing ever happened. I already had 7 cats and others in the household thought we had more than enough cats so to keep the peace I put a flyer up at the vet's office and the nicest young man & his girlfriend saw it when they took a dog they found in the road in to the vet to scan for a chip. From that I knew he was a good guy so I let him adopt Tripod.
I've shed a lot of parting tears over the years when 1 of my babies leaves for a new home but I found it isn't fair to the animals when you have too many. You can't possibly give them the proper care they need or enough affection they deserve. However, I don't let just anyone have 1 of my fur babies.
One of my greatest cats over all the years was a large long haired orange & white lover I named Simpson. I found him hiding in the bushes outside my house. He was about 5-6 months old and was positively endearing. He was Mr Personality, a real clown.
I think it’s paternal instinct, dads can have empathy too. Good Corbin, good daddy doggo
Ten years ago I had a dog that was so mistreated find his way to my door and to my heart. I nursed him back to health and had him for 8! Years. One snowy icey night he ran out at midnight to go potty and came back with a freezing cold kitten. He repeated that 4 yes and brought everyone in. We found the mom out front hit by a plow truck. He took care of them and pretty much raised then and when we gave them away he cried! Greatest dog ever
The bond between Corbin and Potato is so strong so there is no way she would let go of
Potato and I'm sure Corbin would agree. One foster fail out of the rest getting adopted is
a great track record and she has lots of room to foster more and besides Potato is the boss
and I'm sure if she gets more kittens to foster, Potato will be there to help.
My thoughts exactly! Corbin and Potato would miss each other too much and now Corbin has a helper who can teach new fosters how to 'cat.'
I agree with most of what you said. I wouldn't call potato a "foster fail". The point of fostering is to find them homes, and potato found his. It's a win all the way around.
Anyone who has ever had a Great Dane knows how loving they are. I grew up with a GD that seriously thought she was our mom.
They are 150lbs of wonderful heartbreak! ❤️
... my sister and her hubby had one.... when they turn a corner they just keep turning and turning and turning ... ya big dog ...
Do you believe that your Great Dane would have had the courage to protect you against an intruder attacking you. Be honest. Or to confused to realize what is happening to you?
@@rickgarza1823 It depends on the dog but most of them are very sweet and even on the timid side. It is just their size that is intimidating. however any dog can get really angry if it feels threatened. my neighbor has a corgi that shoots me dirty looks every day.
The Dodo is teaching me that great Danes love kittens. Every person that fosters kittens with Great Danes has the same experience and it's absolutely beautiful to see how gentle and almost maternal those dogs can be around such small creatures
No matter the creature; if they see a helpless baby animal, they must protect it.
Our boxer/pit raised 3 kittens like this. Those were her babies and everyone knew it. Even after the kittens were grown they would go up to her and flop over on their backs to let her groom them. To this day those cats act more like dogs than cats, they will walk down the street with you just like a dog and they will run to windows if they heard something.
Mine too. They both chase other cats out of the yard together. I think Tigerlily thinks she’s a dog and Abbey thinks so too. When I brought Tigerlily home her eyes weren’t even open. Abbey was mom right away. We just fed her.
Aww such a sweet story
Cats will walk with their humans, chase off intruders and keep a constant eye on their domain without being raised with dogs
@@mariag.8242 not most
@@majdijones587 I was raised with multiple dogs. Never once a dog. Not one! But when I was 55 my son brought home a cat who unknown to either of us was pregnant. But suddenly had 8 kittens. Oh was I mad. I had forbidden him to keep that cat in my home. He won the argument, but when it had unexpectedly gave birth to 8 kitty's of hers I put my foot down. However I soon fell in love with each one, with distinctive personalities. As well as my service dog, given to me by the Veteran's Administration. They filled my heart ❤with the most wonderful joy I've ever experienced.
Potato will never grow into his personality, it is too big. You are so fortunate to have such a special helper as Corbin as well.
animals who are nice to eachother even though theyre different (like in zoos they have emotional support dogs for some big cats) its so sweet
He reminds me of my rescue cat, Chuti (also a tuxedo). She's just tiny, but has a huge personality and rules this entire house and everyone in it. We're all more than happy to ruled by her.
I as well have a female tuxedo (Spunky), who is "The Queen", "Her Majesty". She has zoomies daily, acting as though my house is a nascar track. She tries to be just like her brother Spooky, and they're great entertainment! Corbin and Potato are adorable! Animals are such complex creatures.
Great to be spoiled with heart warming videos like these on a daily basis!!
Potato is such a great name for a cat! What a cutie.
The paternal instincts are so strong in him, such a good surrogate daddy!
Exactly! I wish she would stop saying 'maternal' and attributing him to being a 'mother'.
Potato is too cute! So happy Corbin adopted him. They're adorable together.
I'm so Happy you adopted him!!
He definitely is a member of your family ☺️
There is no way I could foster a animal, because I could never hand them over to another person.
That's the hardest part of fostering
It's saying goodbye
As a years long foster failure I can relate 😂😂👍
I had the chance to keep in touch with new furbabies parents
Got follow up pics and videos which helped curbing the anxiety of parting with them
It's hard but you do it. The more I keep, the less I can save.
I know that that's hard to do but that's why you Forster. They in the end find a home that will Love them as did you love
Me: There's no cute potats
Potato: _looks at camera_
Me: *_DIES OF CUTENESS OVERLOAD_*
I KNEW you were going to keep him! What a great cat and wow the relationship he has with your Great Dane is amazing! Over 150 fosters? Holy cow! Truly a lifesaver, wonderful person.
Never a dull moment in that house.
I also help, rescue and feed street animals in bhubaneswar, odisha 😊🤗❤
❤️🥰😍😘
I'm from bhubaneswar too...! I feed every street animal in my area...including cows..😌
@@allergictopeople2506 ❤❤❤
God bless this lady for fostering 150 kittens.
So wonderful little Potato got his home and Corbin gets to stay with little guy.😁
Great Danes are sweet. Cool video.
I was so relieved that you kept him
Hello friend how are you doing today
... some times you just bond and know ....you should never go ...
Kudos to all involved - very precious relationship between Corbin and Potato ! But also much credit to small dog George and many thanks to kind lady for not letting adorable Potato go! He was meant to be part of this family. Sending lots of love to all!!!!
Dude, I will DEFINITELLY call my next kitten Potato. I don't know how I didn't even think about it before, it's the best name I've ever heard.
So sweet, you can see the communication of animals clearly here. This is a bond for lifelong understanding of one another 😍😍🥰
I've always loved potatoes, now I REALLY love them.
That must be such a beautiful experience watching these 3 together. Luv the hanging kitty swing
Thank you to the people that foster animals!
Yeah. I watch "The Dodo" before I go to bed because it makes me feel good to know there are dogs like Corbin and folks like you in the world. Thanks for being a human being.
God bless you Karen for taking care of potatoe. Glad you kept him with your family.💙
Smiled the WHOLE time watching this!!
Potato is a great name for that wonderful little critter :-)
Corbin has the same instincts as his wonderful lovely owner!
It's amazing to see that giant dog be so protective and gentle 😍 Corbin needs a cape because he's a super dog! ❤️🥇
I don't think potatoe could live without his friends he's made since day one. They're his family he'd be lost without them how precious to see these little souls come to life thank you for your work
Only love to compassionate souls like you who are actually making this world a better place for lovable furry creatures.
Love seeing the 2 greatest enemies show us humans that anything is possible.
Surprised he hasn’t become a mashed Potato from all that great weight! 😊
No, by comparison to Corbin, he looks like a French fry!
Haha!
The cute... can't... resist... the cute. OMG you named him potato too sweet I'm just gonna go into a diabetic coma.
What a beautiful, gentle, kind and caring parent Corbin is to the hugely vulnerable, tiny Potato!
Whilst they're physically opposites, they're perfectly matched in caregiver and recipient.
Tiny Potato couldn't have asked for a more attentive canine Parent and caregiver, he's recieved all the love, care and attention he needed from his giant companion.
What a joyous life your animals have, you are a wonderful person, thank you for sharing your beautiful animal family.
Edited to add that Corbin needs to be so big to fit in his giant, love filled heart!
our adopted kitty is a spoiled boi !!
Thank you for being a foster mom
The licking and gentle knocking of the kitten helps to stimulate the kitten to eliminate poop. Essential stimulation for a kitten what a great Dane
That huuuuge tongue tossing that tiny bundle around 😍
Well, I got my heart warmed up for the day. Thanks, Corbin, Potato, Karen, & George! This was so sweet and uplifting. Karen, you have such a good heart. I do TNR and have had many kittens/cats come through my home as well, but not 150! That's VERY IMPRESSIVE! Good for you. Bless you & keep up the good work.
100 foster kittens, big respect! 🥰👌🏼🙏🏻🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
I LOVE Foster Fails. Corbin & Potato are adorable together. GOD BLESS!
Love how gentle Corbin is! Potato is right where he belongs. And a special thanks to the foster mom 💖
Such a great friendship ❤️🥰❤️
Soo lovely ❤️
So glad you kept Potato and didn’t separated him from Corbin,they have a special bond.☺️
Corbin was such a great daddy to Potato. He should be allowed to be an actual dad too. He showed his parenting potential & would rank 100% or be a winner.
Potato's personality is bigger than Corbin! 🤣 I love foster fails! 💕🥰
Seeing more and more of these Dog/Cat stories is great! Dogs and Cats are meant to get along!
Potato, what a cute name for a cat. Corbin is mom/dad of the year. 150 cats are very lucky to have had you.
My family has a great dane and boy was she was BIGGEST gentle giant and sweetheart. I noticed this among great danes, very big and super sweet!
so cute 🤗
Strange cat: "My dad could kick your dad's butt!"
Potato: "LOL OK."
My Blue Dane also loved kittens. He’d wash them too. One big slurp and they were soaking wet. 🤣
Her Dane is so beautiful and gentle. So sad they don't live longer.
AWWWWWW I LOVE THIS
Ohh my Lord, how can you not Love these precious innocence, 2 beautiful creatures with pure Love in their hearts, adorable 🥰 it also makes me so happy that Potato got to stay with family, bless their hearts!
We have a german shephard mix and she took care of 3 kittens and now they are best buddies :D It is so lovely to see Potato to have a friend like that!
That is so adorable. Thank you for keeping Potato.
🤧 aww they are so sweet and gorgeous, I don't think I could give him to someone else, bless you for adopting him, great video thanks 💖😁
Aww, sooo cute! I’d really like to see an update on potato when he’s a bit older. He’s so cute with Corbin. I’m so glad potato has a good home 😍🐈⬛🐾
It’s so lovely and amazing that this kind lady has fostered 150 kittens. A true hero🧡
2 beautiful sweethearts, bless you for keeping potato.🥰😍🖤🤍💛
Oh my goodness they are so cute 😍
What a precious video ! Corbin is such a gentle giant, and Potato is way too cute 🥰. Thank you for this bright spot in an otherwise worrisome day 🤜🏼🤛🏼.
Corbin's the ultimate gentle giant. Such a good boy!
don't forget the little guy, he or she needs love too
Karen , Corbin and Potato were meant to be together, a perfect match! 🐕 😽
Hello dear I saw your profile and may I say you have such a beautiful and captivating smile
Love your vids sooooo much so sweet ❤ 😍 💕 💖 💗 ♥
Danes, passionate when they need to be, deadly when they need to be.
My husband found a very sickly & very small abandoned kitten one night & brought him home. The vet didn’t know if he’d make it & we didn’t know what our two dogs would do with him but as we watched our hearts were over joyed at the relationship they formed. That tiny kitten is a now a petite adult who thinks he’s all dog. Part French Mastiff like his mom & part Rottweiler like his dad. Animals are the best teachers ♥️
Three of them are just so cute n adorable 💗
babies
Hello dear, how are you doing?
Why can't people be like this? Those 2 fur babies are so cute.
I’ve had a lot of dogs over the years and my biggest boy was the absolute sweetest with babies of all kinds. A kindred spirit to big beautiful Corbin.
Lovely story very enjoyable ❤️
So sweet! Where in the world did you get that macrame hanging perch thingy? I love that!!
Good 😊 morning
I was eyeing it, too!
