    I just love how you always allow your cats to be curious. I've started showing my own cats more things like new smells or new places because I was inspired by you. Gives them all the stimuli and I'm sure a happier life. :)

      I also let them sniff the things that they won't eat (not bread because my cats are bread monsters). I also give them home raised insects as treats, it's very stimulating for them to play with something that moves before eating it

Quick question if it's okay, could you and Rachel maybe make a video about how your cats cope with earthquakes? We don't have any where I am so I'm curious if they get freaked out by them or if y'all have a protocol in place to keep them safe. Please give them pets for me!

    Will Thunder have tank friends? You can have community fish friends. Mine have always had guppies, mollies, or platies as tank mates and they love the company. Also have Neurite Snails which are non-breeding and great algea cleaners. Even did Angels and Dwarf Frogs once but the Angels got agressive after they grew up and my frogs ate smaller fish so I have stuck with calmer community fish...
