My cat Desi Arnaz really loves Todd. He is obsessed. He won’t even be in the room, then I’ll turn a Todd video on and he will run in and stand in front of the tv, staring up intently. He really loves Todd and Dad.
I wasn't sure I could keep watching these videos - our kitty crossed the rainbow bridge on the 9th, it's still so recent - but I find that this still makes me smile. Hugs to all of you.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalksdo you think you would be able to teach the concept "find" with the puzzle box or treat dispenser? You use it several times in the video, maybe since he understands "before" you could ask "Todd find jingle ball before hmm?" to ask where he left it? Thank you for sharing your lives with us and good wishes for the year ahead
I think it is sort of a test if Cat-dad can find a jingle ball when he hasn't seen where it was put? Todd:" I am wondering if he can find it when he doesn't see where I put it....oh, he can still find it! My cat dad is marvelous! He is so clever...I must devise even harder tasks!"
It’s funny that cats want to sleep in the tiniest places, one of ours sleeps in a little wooden and cardboard peach box. She curls up so tight and gets herself all tucked in, so cute. 🥰🙋🏼♀️
It was so apparent Todd's thoughts were in a completely different zone when he looked at you after saying "want jingle ball" compared to after saying "Todd jingle ball". He really could have found that on his own, I think he just wanted to set you up to be the hero! He certainly was very intent while watching you watch the video to see what he did with it! Too funny, he kinda told on himself for chasing Paulie, glad you didn't just let that go and mentioned you knew.
Happy Holidays Todd & Family, you are definitely a favorite in our house, the furbabies will actually settle and watch the tv lol Thank you for sharing your beautiful kitties with us! 😻😻😻
When Todd looked to Dad and asked Dad to find his jingle ball the expression on Todd's face was of someone looking to their god for answers and expecting with surety that the god would have the answer. No human blasphemy meant here at all! Just an observation of the intensity of Todd's knowledge that Dad will solve the problem. And Dad did, thereby justifying Todd's faith. I don't think Todd is as independent in his being as some cats are. Glamour is more independent which is not surprising since she is much older than Todd and Queen of the cat household. Also having noticed the guitar case next to the filing cabinet got me wondering how the cat household responds to music? Soothing music might soothe irritated cat spirits amongst all of them. Just a thought.
Todds toy and game combos strike again…BAM! Now he has invented Jingleball Hide and Go Seek! 😂 Dad is a good jingleball hunter! See, Todd is making sure you fully recover and heal up, by making you go downstairs to fetch it…
Yes, I would 2 bc we know he the video where he saw Dad holding & petting Paulie on the screen & looked at the chair (where they were n the video Todd & Dad were watching separately) & Todd figuring out what's going on & then telling Dad he didn't like that! So I also wonder what Todd's response would b 2 watching himself chase Paulie! :) That's a good idea that u came up with!
Love using the cameras/tech to find the jingle bell. My kitty play balls always ended up under the stove or refrig necessitating a flashlight and a yardstick--the old-fashion way!!
"Settle in your basket?" and Todd instantly comes forward--"Yes, that's EXACTLY what I wanted." It's so funny, though--those baskets don't look like they'd be very comfortable! But obviously, cats have comfort preferences that don't always look like what a human would want! Then he seems to be eyeing the camera rather balefully before going to sleep--it looks like he's thinking, "Sheesh, do I have to be hounded by the paparazzi even when I'm taking a nap?!"
When my son was younger he had one of those Sterilite drawers with trains and tracks. One drawer was pulled out and our Samson thought it would be a comfy spot to take a nap. It wasn't, so when another cat came by and started checking it out he pulled a Tom Sawyer, probably saying it was so comfy but he would make the sacrifice for them (iirc it was his little girlfriend Brownie). I say this because the other cat climbed in and gave the biggest stink eye to him😂
The struggle is real, my cat loses her toys all around the house and just looks at me when I ask her where they are. Sadly, I don't have a talking cat. Shame Todd doesn't tell Dad where it is, assuming he even remembers.
Have you thought about putting a piece of yarn on them so they can be pulled back out by the kitty or you? The weight doesn't really affect how they play with it, just muffles the sound a little 😉
@Angelica-cp2zw This would be a wonderful idea, except for the one idiot cat I have that can't be trusted with strings. (Has to ruin the fun for everyone else😼) She either gets herself so tangled up in them or tries to just swallow them whole. About once a week (probably more like a month) or so I'll put a broom under there and rake them all out. (Our Roomba is never successful at it.)
My cat Cleo who doesn't usually like to play with my sisters cat Sorren, literally ran at him and growled at him and ran away with her mouth opened 😂 7:17
4:40 What is the black rectangular object (case?) vertically standing against the far wall behind you and Todd's painting? Another musical instrument? 🤔

That's so sweet!
😄 One of mine does the same thing. He hears the buttons and knows there's a cat to be watched!
My boy Loki enjoys watching too. 😊
you really called the cat after Desi Arnaz? 😅
is the cat same handsome, funny and musical? ))
I wonder whether he envies Todd's buttons.
Todd looks at the camera like he knows he’s being watched. Todd is so smart. He is amazing.
I know, he knows, isn't it so cool😻🎅🎁🎄🐾🌴I think they are the 3 wise kitties
Well, after the Paulie video watching incident, we know that Todd watches Dad's monitor. So Todd knows he's being watched!
Why is Todd so cute? lol
He’s just sitting there prim and proper, eyes wide
with emotion, looking like he’s dressed in a tuxedo.
It amazes me that he can remember the buttons.
I wasn't sure I could keep watching these videos - our kitty crossed the rainbow bridge on the 9th, it's still so recent - but I find that this still makes me smile. Hugs to all of you.
I’m so sorry for your loss,it’s really hard to lose a beloved pet.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss. 😢 Never easy.
I am so sorry for your loss. 💔
It is the hardest thing ever. So sorry, obviously he will be greatly missed.
Dad is an excellent hunter! 😊
Good job! ❤
Checks recordings to find Jingle Ball's whereabouts, inadvertently discovers Todd's been a meanie to Paulie when Dad wasn't watching. 😂
@@lizdepictor90 uh oh, busted!😂
Dad and Todd find jingle ball.
Todd happy.
Dad happy.
Viewers happy.
Todd said I can rest easy now, knowing that jingle ball is safe. 😅
Yes indeed
Dad is a jingle ball detective 🔎
Detective Dad finds Jingle Ball! I love how attentive you are, even tho its a small thing to us it matters to those furry darlings of ours
Yes, the Jingle Ball is his special toy, like a toddler's special stuffed toy or blanket. It is important to him.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalksdo you think you would be able to teach the concept "find" with the puzzle box or treat dispenser? You use it several times in the video, maybe since he understands "before" you could ask "Todd find jingle ball before hmm?" to ask where he left it?

LOLLLL this is so funny as an animal researcher
"Does understand that an object still exists even when they can't see it?"
@spacechicken527 You do your experiment, they do theirs *G*
Object permanence, right?
Todd wore himself out. So cute in his basket
You are such a good dad, encouraging him to communicate like that.
Thank you!
Todd knows exactly what he is saying.
It’s funny that cats want to sleep in the tiniest places, one of ours sleeps in a little wooden and cardboard peach box. She curls up so tight and gets herself all tucked in, so cute. 🥰🙋🏼♀️
I was thinking he needs a new basket as that one looks too small! But he seems to like it.

He was really patient with Dad using his weird human thing (phone) to find Jingle Ball! He trusts you so much. ❤
My cat's bump the phone like that too, mostly when it's bedtime because nap is more important 😂
@Angelica-cp2zw my cats mark my phone or laptop if they come for a snuggle on my lap or my feet, because they know those mean I'm not moving soon 😂
Dad: We'll use the cameras to find Jingle Ball.
Todd: Good! We are pleased!😻
Dad: Hmmm, so you were chasing Paulie, huh?
Todd: Darn. We are busted. 🙀
Definitely had airplane ears at that 😂
@@Angelica-cp2zw 😹
Good Dad. Good Dad. You brought my jingle ball back. 😊😊😊
Todd kept trying to pull the phone away. “Silly Dad, my jingle ball is not there.”
Likes like Todd wanted dad to fetch the jingle ball lol
Todd settle and sleep after Jingle Ball. It 's nice to be reminded that some things are right with the world ;)
TODD KNOWS WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT THAT'S FOR SURE
Tod is so glad to have his world back in order!
You are a great dad! You understand how important it is for him😊❤
Yes, the Jingle Ball is his special toy, like a toddler with a special toy or blanket.
Todd communicates so clearly. It's just amazing.
I just ❤ Todd's floofy trousers.
I was just thinking the same. Lovely white pantaloons
I love seeing how with each passing day cats are getting better with their buttons. It's just so wonderful to witness.
Todd knows exactly what he wants to say with the buttons. It’s obvious😊
Happy Holidays Todd & Family, you are definitely a favorite in our house, the furbabies will actually settle and watch the tv lol Thank you for sharing your beautiful kitties with us! 😻😻😻
Sleep! 😄
He's like "Dad help! I'm going down over here! I need my basket!"
The little stare at the end 😂 Todd is so cute.
Your interactions with your family is so endearing and heart warming. I look forward to every edition you add. Thank you! Today I needed this.
Thank you, I'm glad ypuvare here!
Todd is so sweet, he knows what he wants. ❤😊
How good that the Jingle Ball was found!
Especially before it got stepped on!! Don't need another jingle ball to bite the dust!
oh my gosh...how cute! First he yawned....then settle sleep....just melts your heart 💗
Love this little dude and all your fur babies Todd sie eyeing the camera before closing his eyes was so precious
Merry Christmas to you and yours
🎄🎄
Todd, chasing and catching the jingle ball after dad finds it: "I love you jingle ball!"
i don’t know of too many other cats with the buttons; But Todd has me convinced.❤ BTW can you make a Super cut of all the buttons he pushes in a day ?
That's a neat idea. I may try doing it.
I'm so glad that jingle ball was found. He is doing so well with all his words!
Jingle ball went down the steps - he pushed it over the edge
Most amazing vid even though he ratted himself out about chasing Pauline😆❤️🇨🇦
Good afternoon and Merry Christmas to everyone from my tuxedo boy Ossie and me all the way from Portsmouth, England.
Merry Christmas to you and Ossie as well! I'm glad you are here!
Thank you and to all of you as well.
Todd Is So Cute!!! 💕💕❤❤

Cello or base
I think Dad said in another video couldn't play anymore because of arthritis? I could be wrong
@@Angelica-cp2zw you're correct. He can't play anymore 😔
I guess looking for Jingle Ball tired Todd out: so settle was in order. 😊
There was much Jingle Ball play after it was found.
Sleep ..settle little fluffy good boy ❤🎉
Todds toy and game combos strike again…BAM! Now he has invented Jingleball Hide and Go Seek! 😂
Dad is a good jingleball hunter! See, Todd is making sure you fully recover and heal up, by making you go downstairs to fetch it…
Show Todd the video of him chasing Paulie. I'd love to see his reaction.
😹
Yes, I would 2 bc we know he the video where he saw Dad holding & petting Paulie on the screen & looked at the chair (where they were n the video Todd & Dad were watching separately) & Todd figuring out what's going on & then telling Dad he didn't like that!

We have an unfolded clothshanger with electrical tape on the hook just for that purpose too 😂
Todd you are so adorable and smart, too!
Hi Dad and Todd. Todd us the cutest. So sweet. So smart. Love you all.
Papa, can you bring me to bed, please?

Todd is such a good cat.❤
I love you, Todd.❤
Such a perfect, intelligent kitty !!❤
I'm thinking Todd knew exactly what he was doing. Playing hide & seek with dad. ❤
Don't want Dad slacking on the physical therapy 👍
The side-eye before sleeping😂
Todd, dear, I think you need a bigger basket!
He has them available but like that basket. He would prefer Glamour's smaller basket, but she will beat him if she catches him in it.
"If I fits, I sits." -Todd, probably
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalkssnugger fit+ smells like Glamour= happy Todd 😉
8:19 Bombastic side eye 🤣🤣
I wonder if Todd understands that even though he knows where the jingleball is, you don't. How advanced is his theory of mind?
It looked like Todd was limping a little when he went back to the board and said Todd Jingle ball.
Yes, he is still recovering.
Settle
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY 2025 TODD AND FAMILY😺🐾😺🐾😺🐾🎄🎉THANK YOU FOR THE CONSTANT CHEER OF THESE PETS
Thank you! Merry Christmas to you as well!
Todd is beautiful 😊
Todd is such a sweetheart ❤️♥️🥰😘😻
Oh so sweet
So precious 😻
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to your family!
Thank you, and the same to you and yours.
Excellent episode! 😊❤
Merry Christmas Todd and everyone!
💖🧑🎄🎄🎁🎄🎅
Merry Christmas to you and yours as well!
Priceless ❤
Good morning Todd and dad. Todd's coat looks like he got a bath.
No, just lots of brushing and combs.
Todd make game for Dad!
Posting both here and on the live, hoping to boost the channel.
Thank you, I appreciate it!
That's what I do....start looking under things!!🤣🤣❤️❤️
The struggle is real, my cat loses her toys all around the house and just looks at me when I ask her where they are. Sadly, I don't have a talking cat. Shame Todd doesn't tell Dad where it is, assuming he even remembers.
I'm pretty sure he knows where it is, he just won't tell or show me. I think that is part of the game.
Good night Todd
From my family to yours, a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Same to you!
Happy holidays Greg for you, the cats and your family!
Same to you!
He certainly has you well trained. How long did this training take?? People don't really train pets, peys train people.
At ca. 6:30 todd touches, but does not activate, a button - looks like he changed his mind, and chose Sleep instead.
He touched Kisses first
Crisis averted!
Thank you.
I ❤ Todd
Cat-astrophe averted :)
todd is a lefty
Was that a “play that funky music” alert sound?❤
An alert on my phone: I received an email from work.
Maybe the pets and kisses are part of the answer/problem😂
I don’t know if I would’ve thought to use the camera to find it.
Todd,is very smart, cause he is LEFT PAWED...JUST LIKE HUMAN LEFT HAND PEOPLE HAVE HIGHER ...IQ❤
This is why I hardly get balls for toys, they all stay under the couch. 😸
Have you thought about putting a piece of yarn on them so they can be pulled back out by the kitty or you? The weight doesn't really affect how they play with it, just muffles the sound a little 😉

About once a week (probably more like a month) or so I'll put a broom under there and rake them all out. (Our Roomba is never successful at it.)
I am confused about purchasing a calendar. Is it shipped as a hard copy calendar or do I have to print it out myself?
It is shipped to you as a hard calendar.
And it's very nice!@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks
Do you ever say, “I love Paulie too”?
Does Dad say it? Yes, all the time. Does Todd say it? Not yet.
I would love to know how you train Todd to know what the buttons mean. There are so many of them. Mine would just press 'treat' over and over.
My cat Cleo who doesn't usually like to play with my sisters cat Sorren, literally ran at him and growled at him and ran away with her mouth opened 😂 7:17
Such a hard life!
👍👍👍
4:40 What is the black rectangular object (case?) vertically standing against the far wall behind you and Todd's painting? Another musical instrument? 🤔
Love this channel but I wonder why Glamour and Paulie don’t learn the buttons? 🤷🏻♀️
I honk ot is like with most people. How many people do you know that are willing to put the time and effort into learning a foreign language.
