- Billi has been pretty consistent about wondering where the heck Dad is when he travels!
Make sure you wait for the end, Billi really said “you’ve taken too much time for yourself, it’s about me now!” 😹

Billi is a female domestic shorthair, she's 13 years old, her favorite word is mad.
Inspiration for learning to “speak” with buttons from Hunger4Words (check her out on IG).

That "No" to the "Dad food"... her madjesty is in charge 😂😂
Ikr lol
"I'm hungry"
"No"
🤣
she hit that button REAL quick in response 😭
She also hit it with her back right paw!
@@mynamewhatis7254 that button was too urgent for the front paw😅🤣😜
No Dad Food. Dad has a lot of pets and cuddles to make up for and Billie is cashing them all in
I love how she has a little walk while she composes her sentence.
I like to imagine that since words are buttons located in physical space for Billi that when she does that, she's looking for words. We don't walk around like that (usually) because our words are in our head, and come out of our mouths. While for Billi, they're spread out across the floor. Can you imagine if we had to remember the physical location of all the words we know to be able to say them?
HELLO!!! I want to spend time with celebrities. Just kidding. GAGAGAGAGA! I only want to spend time with my two girlfriends and record videos for RUclips with the 3 of us. OH YEAH. Don't hate me for living the best life, dear reid
@@StevenIngram Interesting!
@@StevenIngram Well, we humans do type our words, so we do have to sort of memorize how to speak using buttons in a spacial layout. :-)
With "tail-talking"
I cracked up at the “Dad...play outside” explanation. “Without BILLIE!?” Yeah, you knew that one was going to fall flat. Life is rough when you’re a cat.
You rhymed. Was that on purpose? XD
SoraShadowdancer uhhh, Nope. But I’ll take it as a happy coincidence!
@@SoraShadowdancer it took me so long to find which part rhymed
u made me curious so I stood here reading like 7 times until I finally noticed 😅
I tell ya knowing to speak multiple languages gets me confused sometimes , 😂
Did dad just go on vacation or does he play a sport and went there to play?
“Dad food” - “no” most cat response ever 😂😂😂😂
They should have an "unauthorized" button. The cat clearly believes in protocol!
“Dad in ghana..”
Billi: “…What?”
😂😂😂
The way Billi asked WHAT when you said a word she didn't know just blows my mind. 🤯
mine too!
She's like whats a Ghana I wanna goitodde and play Ghana, not fair dad!
"What's a Ghana? Dad bring me a Ghana?"
Same
Lol, except I think Billi spelled it "WUT" this time.
"Dad food."
"No."
The sass! Pressing it with the hind foot, too, immediately. Oh my, Billi.
Right?? That was the action of a cat who is dismissing your need to eat as unimportant compared to her need to be pet. XD
So true that cat is soon smart boy
Yeah lmao "Ima show ya' the BACKFOOT"
Haha
@@SoraShadowdancer Just like a small child. 😢
"Dad in Ghana."
"What"
Naturally Billi asks the most logical question!
Better that than “Dad’s a goner” ;)
WHAT
Ghana outside outside outside
She hit the no button so effectively with her back leg at the end, it’s like she getting fast at typing on a keyboard. Amazing.
I could feel the struggle of trying to explain where dad is, what is Ghana, and why dad's outside without Billi.
Billie is a great communicator!
"Dad in Ghana."
"*WHAT*"
Reminds me of when you tried to explain that the toy she asked for was in the mail. Both geography and postal service must be weird concepts for a cat.
Yeah, I think I mentioned before that there could be a "travel" or "trip" button. Billi has traveled enough to understand the concept very well, I bet. Would be useful for a variety of important information.
@@thewiseturtle YES, this! :)
@@thewiseturtle Might work, if Billi could conceive of someone travelling without her. 😁
I said the same thing.. Americans get kidnapped and set on fire there.... He should be careful
@@thewiseturtle I'm curious, is it possible to connect those buttons to a TV and play a film of the relevant concept each time the cat presses a button? For example a film or a photo of travelling when the cat presses that button? Could that help with training the cat?
Poor Billi... She missed her Dad so much. And the pure happiness in her eyes when he came home 😭
My cat purrs and demands pets like crazy when I come home after a few hours, it's so sweet...
And I officially demand more videos with Billi and Dad, their cute moments are the best ♥️
They are truly in love 🥰
Haha... my cat (The Neediest Needy Boy in ALL of Needy Land) won't let me out of his sight for 24-36 hours after I get home from visiting my sister for a couple of days. I actually have to pack my bag in another room where I can close the door so he doesn't see, or else I get cattitude for the entire day BEFORE I leave!
@@BilliSpeaks And it looks like she didn't even give him time to get upstairs for that first nuzzling.
I wonder what would happen if she hears him over speaker phone would she understand that it's him even with the slight difference in voice that would be a cute reaction
@@shanedaley6236 Video call??
‘Dad food’. ‘No’. really got me 😂
Yeah, Billi was like "You were gone ALL that time and should have eaten before you got back, so that you could come home and make up for all of that time you didn't pet me."
"Was that an 'Oops'?"
"You heard me. Now cuddle!"
This channel has helped me understand my own cats' behavior. Thank you.
🥰🥰🥰

@@SuperRattaTam Cat psychology 😸
My God! Billie loves her Dad. She obviously thinks of him often. Really thinks deep. What a precious relationship.
Billi asking "What" about Ghana. ❤ She's such an intelligent girl.
I know right, it's crazy how she expressed she didn't understand what she meant by "Ghana".
I was expecting Mom to bring out a world globe and explain to Billi exactly where Ghana is!🌍🐈
😉😂🤣
Dad's a-Ghana.
Billi: "what"
Maybe time an "away" button? Billie is such a good girl and she loves her hoomans soooo much, it is truly adorable!
or "work"
I think there is a work button but it's been a while so I'm not sure
afkbrb
or "far". I feel like that's easy to teach
"Gone stray" 😂
Not only does dad give great pets, he has fabulous hair!
*A fabulous mane
He is also a wizard with fan toy.
No offense, Mom.
Jesus loves yu nd He died for yu but He rose from the dead so if yu repent nd trust in Him yu can live forever wit Him
@@malijames12 lol
@@justusetpeccator_ who asked?
It's like speaking to a toddler! Now that my own child is 4 years old, I can see her vocabulary and understanding growing beyond Billy's (very vast) understanding.
It's amazing what Billy can do!
Billi: "Cuddle"
Mom : 'awwww right, baby come here~'
Billi: "Dad"
lmao, I died
edit: This proves a cat doesn't see and use you as a convenient cuddle. there's a real personal affection
Good point.
I do think there's a personal affection but I don't think this proved it. Dad could simple do a better job of cuddling/petting. Cats are very particular about things like that.
@@SquidandCatAdventures can't even tell for real if this is a fabricated test or not tbh
This doesn't prove anything bruh
A deep connection.
Losing pets when you are kid, it changed me [hell it changes all of us].
100% cats miss you when you're gone. My roommates tell me that my cat often wanders around the house meowing and scratching at things when I'm gone for longer than a few hours. My roommate's cat (rest in peace, Nikola) had a distinctive meow he'd do when he missed his mom, like a mix between a cry and a howl.
That "I'm lost" cry breaks my heart
😢😢
It's called beckoning trill I think. Our old cat did that a lot when she was alone feeling insecure (or when she wanted us to open the door for it to go outside)
I call that sound “yowling”. My Louis (rip) would do that a lot when I would leave, claw at the door that I enter…sometimes for hours, sometimes many times during the day (so I was told by my parents). I informed them that it was separation anxiety, my mom didn’t believe me…still doesn’t. Some people just don’t get it.
Ok, this is probably way far out there, so please no laughing. Have you considered using a map (whether actual or abstract) to teach Billi the idea of far away and 'countries'?
I would never have even considered it except for some of the concepts she has already conquered. At this point, all preconceived ideas about what animals can and cannot understand have been tossed.
I laughed a solid 2 minutes about how amazingly confidently she presses "No", when dad wants food. Like: you left me alone for so long, I can demand your pets for a few more minutes, your food can wait, I missed you so much and I need you to smell like me and I need to smell like you again.
I am really happy that you share that journey 😂
That true cat poetry right there!
she even block the hand path to the food button.
Ikr😃
Dad straight up pwned. Dad can fking eat after pets. Billi needs a "fking" button and a "btch" button.
Billi's "What" when mom tried to explain traveling abroad was so funny :D
Wow. To me, this video is proof Billi understands exactly what these phrases mean. Good job, Parents. You deserve some Ted Talks and awards.
Ted talk "Yes" 😊👍
The cat doesn't understand any part of this lol
@@frogfarmer3551 The human can't understand that the cat can understand. Who's the smarter one here? 🤔
@@dwsel clearly not you 🤣🤣🤣
@@frogfarmer3551 Billie may not understand everything being said to her, but she clearly understands some of the things being said to her.
This is why I always remind my bf that he has to tell his cat he’s “leaving for 3 moons” = leaving for 3 nights. Otherwise his cat cries and yowls at 6pm every night looking for him. And I swear to god when there is no moon his cat goes bat shit crazy when he’s gone.
We would talk about sunsets, how many sunsets before I return.
@@justwondrin hmmm I will try that next time.
Meows at the moon and becomes catwolf
Aww, that is a smart kitty
Hilarious!
Of course Billi misses Dad. Dad is Treatmaster! Dad is Food! Dad is FAN TOY!
And pets, pets, pets!
Mom is food, mom is pets, mom is fan toy.
Cracked me up that time Mom was playing fan toy and Dad told her, "You're not doing it right. Here. I'll show you. "
It's more than just that. If he wants treats, food, or fan toy he can just ask his mom. He didn't even click treats, food, or fan toy.
I read this in minion
I think it’s so cute how Billi looks up at you for answers Glad you got your dad back👍🏻😃❤️🦊
Forreal my never came back
Most animal language includes a LOT more body language than human use, though we do use a lot. It makes perfect sense that, since Billi is a cat, they wouldn't understand the words and look for body language to reinforce their understanding.
Totally adorable. Dad is Billi’s captive for awhile now. No food, just pets.
Billi adores and loves her Dad. Great to see Dad and Billi together. 🐾💖
Oh man this makes me feel guilty for travelling. I know cats handle loneliness better than dogs but knowing they probably miss me as much as I miss them....
Aww I love Dads giggle when he pets Billi. I love how Billi is so excited to see him. Cat's are amazing.
The way she nonchalantly kicks the ‘no’ at the end 🤣
Okay, that last 'no' with a hind foot even was great. I actually laughed out loud.
You can even see her glance at it and sidestep to hit it. So it's not like a funny accident but intent. She is usually so precise with her button presses but excitement seemed to make that not possible.
Such sass 🤣
“No. You gone for days. Pets now, not dad-food.”
i would've caved, and said "okay, food soon, billi now", and sat down again
Me too! So much sass :D
I know right?? There’s a level of casual and uncaring dismissiveness towards his desire for food that the rapid response using a hind foot conveys. Especially because she’s simultaneously actively and desperately trying to get him to give her more pets.
Dad: I need foo-
Billi: no. Anyway, as I was saying. Can I has Pets???!
Just call this one “Love letters to Dad”😂
That back-leg ‘no’ was the cutest brattiest thing ever 🤣
That last part shows just how spatially aware cats can be. He stomped “NO” with his back foot while passing over it without looking or hesitating to guess where it might be.
Yes! But I also only have to watch those graceful leaps or those twists in space to land upright, too! Amazing!
I loved how she IMMEDIATELY said "No" when dad said he wanted some food too 😂
My guess is Billi was worried he would be gone for a long time again. I can't imagine how weird it would be to think Dad playing oustide would take a week or something.
Oh YES! Cats do miss their humans! Just last night my husband & adult son had to walk to convenience store, as it was getting dark outside Houdini kept going to the sliding glass door & looking for them. My dog Ben was "worried" too. When they got home Houdini then gave them a chewing out. 🤣
How Sweet❣️
Dad is going to be Billi’s captive for awhile. Billi missed her Dad. No Food…..just Pets.
Billi is half joking and half telling the truth….about no food, just pets.
Great to see Dad with Billi. She definitely adores him. 🐾💖
Houdini! That is so cute, such a good cat name
Billi - Where?
Mom - ughh (great, now how do I explain geography to a cat??) 😂😂
Insightful, back when I saw these buttons years ago there wasn't many success stories to look at - now I'm very excited to see how it's developing and that you can indeed have a full dialogue with this simple yet brilliant technology. It's one of those things that once it's a common thing, you wonder how you lived without it! Very happy to see it, hope it will be in every home with a pet some day.
I'd suspect that it has a large part to do with individual intelligence and temperament as well. Just like there are human geniuses and not so geniuses, you'd probably need a combination of a higher IQ and willingness to cooperate on the animal's part for high chances of success.
Dad gives good pets, I can see why he misses him
Awwww! She misses her Dad! So incredible she can ask questions like where and what! I think she was asking what Ghana was. It still astounds me the concepts Billi can verbalize that most people think cats have no concept of. She litterally has the thoughts and feelings of a young child, it makes me a bit sad how other cats can't tell us the things Billi can and that most people don't even believe they have these thoughts/feelings
Not just cats. All domesticated animals. I remember reading about a pet parrot who was going to have to stay at the vet overnight. As the owner was leaving, the bird cried out, “Take me with you! I’ll be good!” (He had heard the children say this to their parents repeatedly when they would leave the house.) The owner turned back around and took the parrot home with her. She said it broke her hear! It broke mine just reading about it! This is why I cannot foster. I did it once but how do you explain to the animal that it was always temporary and they didn’t do anything wrong? That you’re not rejecting them? Some would say they don’t have those kinds of feelings, but I’m sure they do.
@@ellengrace4609 awwww! 😥 that would break my heart too. Its hard enough leaving them somewhere like a vet or cattery etc as it is but hearing them verbalize it!
Yea i'd worry about that with fostering as well but for many animals being fostered is still better than being in a shelter where the staff don't have enough time for everyone
They tell us. If we listen.
@@maeuschen22 I absolutely agree, and I’m so grateful for those who foster. After that one experience, I learned it’s not for me so I do my best to support in other ways.
It's been remarkable, I have been looking at mine in a new way.
Oh my gosh, Billi and Dad are adorable together.
Right? 🥰🥰
Dad: (slowly finds the right buttons) Dad. Food.
Billi: (nonchalantly with back foot, and FAST!) No.
Made me laugh out loud! 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks so much for sharing your amazing journey with Billi! She is beautiful inside and out!
Awwwww the way she reached out to him when he moved his hands for just a second, then followed him when he walked away
Sweet girl loves and misses Dad when he's away. She missed him so much, she didn't even want him to take time to eat. Cats miss you anytime you're gone. Maybe Billi could use a miss you button.
I think she was like "wait no keep petting me who knows if you'll end up buying your food in Ghana!!"
“Dad gonna get food” billy:”DONT LEAVE ME DAD!! “
Don’t go to Ghana again.
It was so quick too lmao
The "No" made me laugh, too. She was not done getting pets from Dad!
The whole amount of sass that back foot harnessed when he said no
I love how Billi pressed “NO” button with her leg even without looking at it😂
If THIS video does not show people that YES cats miss their people when they have to go away, nothing will. She really loves her dad so much. I do hope you show him all his videos when he comes home? Thank you dad for Billi happy by spending time with her and giving her the love she needed from you.
My cats absolutely lose their marbles when their dad comes home. They get jealous if he doesn’t manage to pet them both at the same time, lol. If we could all teach our cats to use these buttons maybe we would have less incidents of plants knocked off the window sill in an act of frustration that we cannot meet the needs they are trying to convey to us. My cats really appreciate the time I take to try to understand what they want and need.
@@garbagelifeoftheboringwife My boy trained me well. I know what he wants, when he wants it and the consequences of me not hopping to it. The little bugger will spray right where he knows I can smell it or on clothes.
He howls after using his box as it must be cleaned immediately.
He follows me loudly meowing until he gets fed.
He taps my leg 3 times and quietly meows when he wants pets, no buttons required. Which is a shame as I would love to have one that he understands as leave me alone, I'll get to it later! LOL
@@garbagelifeoftheboringwife I was wondering if I should try using buttons like this, but I don't have much space, and I'm pretty sure I already know what she's trying to tell me. I had to learn her language though, I didn't teach her mine. 😅
My sister has been dead for three years, and her cat still looks for her while crying out. I know how you feel, Billi.
😢😢😢
My dads cat still looks for him ,my daughter lives in his house now and the cat lives next door with my other daughter but he still comes round and trys to get in even their dog has put him off
You mean, Coma?
Billi has proven SO MANY times that she's a total daddy's girl, LMAO!!!
the fact that cats can communicate on a basic level amazes me. they can't speak, however once provided a tool to speak for them, they can learn how to use it. absolutely insane. also this vid proves cats are social creatures, which so many people fail to understand for some reason D:
I dont want to disappoint you but i think that most of the cat's "words" were just not intentionnal and random unfortunately.. They definitely cant understand at this point our language and learn it to communicate with us, they cant imagine the meaning of the words that the people are saying. Sorry for this information
@@zeussofficiel8189 hmm, that would also make sense. feels weird to think this way after watching a couple of her videos, tho. thanks for info c:
@@engkropix0558 No problem, and of course i think it doesnt change anything to the fact that the cats miss their humans and love cuddles ^^
@@engkropix0558 Don't listen to them. Nobody really did such tests before and cat-human communication is just beginning and theres a lot of naysayers that never tested it but claim its fake. Watch some more recent videos and Billi gets even more insane.
@@zeussofficiel8189 I mean I'm not sure if any scientists ever try training and testing cats like Billi.
This is why I felt so bad when my friend's boyfriend cheated and their cats had to go with my friend because his new gf didn't want them🙁 They lived in my friend's home, so when he left, my friend told me that they kept going to the door everytime it opened. They thought he was just gone for a while and will come back😓
My mum just went to the hospital for the 2nd time in a month (first time was for 2 weeks - she got to be home over easter) and our cat was visibly upset in response to her absence, since he'd been sitting next to her all day while she was here, comforting her and taking comfort in her being here (she's definitely his mum).
Awww so sweet! I bet that makes your mum feel good 🤗 swift healing to her!
@@BilliSpeaks Thank you! Yes she took a lot of solace in him, since she was bound to the bed while here. I hope she is well soon!
:( She is dying. Lung cancer that went into overdrive before treatment could start.
I spent and hour daily lying with our cat to give him all the love in addition to the normal interactions we have.
@@masha8770 I’m so sorry 😢 no one should have to watch their loved ones go through that. Sending comfort and love to you both 💕
@@masha8770 I’m really sorry..I had to watch someone really important to me be bedridden then die as well. Try to take care of yourself and your fluffy sibling, the kitty will need you during these hard times..
And this is why I love cats. This entire channel perfectly shows how smart they are, how they bond with people, and how emotional they are.
Cats are not very smart
@@mantazerted7155 cats are extraordinarily intelligent

When her BACK PAW hit “NO!” after he said he needed to get food!🤣🤣🤣 so precious and stern I love it! She’s like I’ve been waiting for you to come from OUTSIDE! NO! PET ME! ☠️
LOL I love how @2:08 the cat puts it's foot on her phone and looks at her like "Call him then, I need speak dad!" XD Adorable~!
Billi had serious Dad withdrawal symptoms.
“No, dad, you may not have food. You MUST give me more pets!“
"You had plenty of food in Ghana! Wherever that is."
Awwww! The way she puts up her little paw when told Dad is playing outside is adorable. The way she lays down the "No food for Dad" rule is hilarious!
Oh my frigging word. This is so precious. She's so cute! I love how she looks up at you and her little paw when she presses it on the button!!!!!! Aweeee! And when her dad comes home! I just can't right now! I love that you are breaking the stereo type that cats aren't bonded with us like dogs, or that they don't understand.
How happy she is when he's finally home, ahhh my heart!!
You should consider adding the word “travel” since its something you guys do often enough! ☺️
Good idea, like driving around in the car with her for like an hour and each time call it 'travel' ...then you can tell her dad went 'travel travel travel' Lol
Dad - Far - Outside
"No, you should've eaten while you were gone, now is Billi petting time!"
Aww Billie is such a daddy's girl. Their relationship is So sweet. I wonder if she's worried when he has to go for days at a time if he's coming back.
i can almost guaranteed she does worry at least a little bit. i worry too when someone i know goes away and i don't know where they went or when they'll be back.
We miss YOU, Billie! ❤😢 Hope you are playing happily in pet heaven. Visit mom & dad once in a while so they know you're stil with them.
Dad so gentle when he pets Billi. Dads so patience, as so is Mom.
Al is amazing.
Are you saying AI as in Artificial Intelligence or AL as in a name? I don't think this qualifies as AI its more like learning a very foreign language. I'm just asking cause I don't know what Dads name is. Just started watching this channel so just asking. 🙂
That back kick to say "no", such a sass.
First, Billi asking for dad was the best part. Then, the pets when dad was home. And finally, Billi's answer to dad food 😂😂😂
30/10 video!
I love Billi’s response to Dad Food, “no” um no Dad Billi wants pets food later! So adorable! 😻
2:11, Billi stood on the phone "CALL DAD OVER!"
She looks absolutely lost in the sauce when she gets those dad pets at last!!! Too cute.
She really wanted to know and to understand why Dad was gone 😢 This really hits me right now because my neighbors moved Easter weekend and have left their 3 cats while they settle the new house. I know the cats are upset and missing their family. One is very friendly with me and keeps seeking reassurance.
Breaks my heart I don’t know what my cat is thinking. She’s an old lady now. I wish I’d known about this amazing technology. Edit: I lost my beautiful old girl to kidney disease a few weeks ago sadly. When we’re ready to get another cat we’ll be getting these buttons.
You probably know more than you might think! The most important part is just making sure she knows you love her, and that's something I'm sure you're great at.
This cat is 12 years old when she started learning buttons, maybe it's not too late for your cat?
@@FirebladesSong thanks ☺️ I do try. She’s got early kidney failure so I keep a close eye on her and make sure she’s comfy.
I've seen 16 year old cats learn fetch. They can definitely learn new things even in old age
Billi is an old lady too! Its never too late!
dad play outside‼️🤣🤣🤣
Recently returned from a 2 week vacation in Iceland, one of my cats stayed glued to me for a week...literally slept as my Mohawk at night. The feels are real
God, that is so cool!!!! Not to mention, what an honor to be loved so deeply by your baby!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Came in because of another video and happy to find there is a brand new video just uploaded 😆 the look Billi gave after hearing dad is outside is so adorable
Lol, the way she went "no" at the end, so funny! That's adorable but it makes me so sad to think that that my cats miss me this much during the day when I'm at work 😭
It may not be this much. I’m sure they do miss you, but cats understand routines and will know that you’ll come home soon. I think the problem with Dad in Ghana was that he didn’t come home on schedule and Billi didn’t understand why. Thankfully Mom was around to reassure her.
(…and this is where I went on a bit of a tangent. Adding this after the ramble below was done).
Billi may not have understood the exact words or timeframe, but as with kids, a calm tone of voice will help. Like when little kids fall, and they look at their parents to see what their reaction was. If the parent rushes over, expressing worry and comfort before the child has shown distress can tell the child that the fall was upsetting and tears shortly follow. If the parent smiles and goes “oops!” or something of the sort, the kid may smile or laugh too. Frightened animals apparently react much the same way. It’s so hard not to smother them with sympathy and concern when they’re scared, for example during a thunderstorm or something, but if they see you worried it can reinforce their feeling that there’s something to be afraid of. A calm demeanor and gentle attention lets them know that you aren’t worried about the storm. They may still be scared, but not as much.
Or so I was taught, anyway. A tip from one of my absolute favorite vets ever. But it was so hard to do! I had to retrain myself to be calmly reassuring, even when their fear made me want to go full protective mama mode.
The three act structure, the anticipation, this is cinema
Glad to see dad putting the work and love into billi. Wish all pet owners were like these 2 great people, nice structured happy environment for billi!
So sweet! I'm glad Billi got Dad back even if the poor guy won't be allowed to eat for awhile. 😆
It is so sweet and wholesome to see an adult man enjoying spending time with his cat friend. Billi has such a good Dad 😀
Can we get a all interview with dad to see what he thinks of all this?
Yes please!
He doesn’t love being in videos, but I’ll ask!
@@BilliSpeaks just voice is alright!
@@BilliSpeaks we love dad content too! But it's okay if he doesn't want to
@@BilliSpeaks Well you can ask him and just read out his answers to us or so?
My aunt travels cause she writes for a sailing magazine. However the cat and the chihuahua go with them!
That's awesome! Love traveling animal companions. It's a lot different than traveling with hoomin ones. 😁
When I left for college my dad would send pictures of my cat meowing and laying down on my bed, never getting up except to eat once a day and return to the exact same spot on my bed. So yes, they miss you, for sure.
I say it all the time, but she is such a special girl. ❤❤❤
billi reveling in the luxury of dad pets
"Dad in Ghana"
"What"
Does she know the concept of "Far"? Maybe it could it be useful in this situation - "Dad Outside Far".
Though maybe "Later Later" is all she needs to know anyway.
I’ve never tried to model “far”, will have to think about how to do it!
I just suggested this too. I'm thinking she'd learn it quickly if it's taught in conjunction with near, as opposites are easy to model and grasp. They could use her toys or Mom herself, and the other side of the room/apartment could be far (or "far away"?), then come close for near. Once she grasps the concept, Kendra could explain longer distances by talking about their roadtrip. I thought about using "close" instead of "near", but it sounds too much like clothes. Just like they say tummy instead of belly because it sounds too much like Billi.
Omg this is the sweetest!! Really appreciate the dad pets footage at the end. She loves her daddy. 🥹🥹🥹
That quick No at the end, priceless! :D
NO! 😄 I laughed out loud at that last NO! I have to say, I think my favorite videos are of Billi asking for Dad and spending time with him. I think it is because it is endearing that she misses him and asks for him. Pulls the heart strings.
Billi's love for her dad is so sweet and sincere. I literally LOL'd when he pressed buttons for Dad Food and she pressed No.
billi for president
When she just gently touched your knee, by her paw... That was so adorable and lovely! She's so cute, not just smartass. Unique, so presciouss
Dad really takes his time with those pets, no wonder she hits the dad button all of the time
I love the last word. 😂 Yes they definitely miss their people! My kid returned from a 3 month absence and kitty could not stop meowing and wanting cuddles. Also could not stay out of her room
billi's dad's hair is amazing- why is this the first time im seeing it??
He doesn’t love being in videos, this was too cute not to share though!
@@BilliSpeaks I agree, im glad billi finally got to see him lol
I also thought his hair was absolutely fabulous 🤩
I love how you tried to figure out how to explain Dad’s absence.
