    A few years ago I never would have thought I'd be on RUclips making videos like this. Some things in life just change your perspective. Big Stripes became a very big part of the channel by accident. I had to tell her story. Thank you all for the kind words and continued support of the channel. 😊 It may seem like just a cat but it is also the memories it invokes. We'll be back to yellow iron cat videos on Saturday. 👍

    I'm so sorry about Big Stripes passing away. I always enjoyed seeing Big Stripes in your videos. I have some very nice cats around here myself. They are always so loving and caring. I can relate to how you feel about losing Big Stripes. I was so happy that you were able to find Big Stripes. It's breaks my heart also about Big Stripes getting into some poison and passing away. Big Stripes was so kind and sweet for something horrible to happen to her like that. How old was Big Stripes? At least you have some new cats to help you get through such a tough time.

I have 3 inside cats and they sleep next to me by my pillow every night. Some on them will even wrap their paws around me and purr themselves to sleep. It amazes me how loving and caring animals can be. Congratulations on your 10K subs:)

    Sorry to hear about your kitty! They are good shop pals. I've had lots of cats over the years and they each had totally different personalities. It's hard to loose a friend. I spent $3000 in vet bills to save my cat this year. People said I was nuts for spending that on a cat. But I consider him my friend and I would gladly give that again to save any of my friends. Congratulations on the 10k! Keep up the good work
