It’s not the fact they own cats, most of these woman are decent owners who also take care of themselves and know what they are doing. Even the lady with 16 cats has everything under control and her cats are clean and healthy. But the ones with over 100 cats seem to have problems with keeping things clean and under control. How can you assure the safety of those woman and all those cats if they pick every single cat they see on their streets? Especially if they can’t afford to take them to the vet...the amount of diseases that can go on are intense and dangerous for both the cats and owner. That’s the real Cat Lady problem.
Because we see dogs as MAN'S best friend more so than WOMEN'S best friend. And we RARELY judge men as much as we judge women. Men who proclaim to be bachelors and "only need my dogs" almost never get this much heat. Even if they are 50 years old.
All of these women are incredibly honest and open about their situation. It is especially brave considering the way society ridicules and humiliates unmarried older women.
Excellent observation, Deja. These women, in many ways, are the lucky ones. One of the advantages of being in a "despised" class is getting to see peoples' true colors. Getting past their ill treatment or dismissal, one can be thankful to know the truth about them. The best response is to wear one's own quiet dignity and to be always kind, merciful, and polite and because they are the ones who need it most. The other advantage is in having real friends who see a person of value.
I'm going to be one of this Lady's.. And I'm only 33. Got 3 cats and 2 chinchillas, they are my kids, i spend all my money on them, i go to work and go straight home to be with them. I'm bipolar and done having them, I've become a better person. Not everyone wants to get married and have kids, I've done the relationships, stepkids, false friends... I'm happier now than ever before.. I love my own company with my babies. I don't care that I've cancelled nights out cos i didn't want to leave my cats on their own x
Robert it made me really unbelievably happy to read your story. Thank you for sharing. I needed that smile before I drift off into dreamland. Its just so great to hear about love & caring in a world that needs it so badly. Maybe there is a deep soul reason some of us do not get to have the children we wanted this time around (?) Who knows, possibly there is something to learn before the next chapter. Animals sure have taught me alot & I too have altered my life to care for pups that I never had any intention of "owning" anyway's . . . . meow meow woof woof sending many heartfelt blessings

At the age of 19 i was a crazy cat guy, i rescued strays in Greece, fed them, loved them and got them to peak health before finding them a new loving home. My biggest achievent is getting 26 at one go adopted by a old couple. Miss every single one of them and breaks my heart everytime i let another one go, im 45 now and can still remember the face and personality of every single cat the passed through my arms. I fuckin' love cats!
Still i think some of these cases border abuse, like 116 cats in a house i think thats a bit cruel. You might as well put them in a zoo if you are going to treat them like that. Cats are unique companions because they choose you, they are not collectables you stack in cages like wtf?
There's a huge "sanctuary" in Larnaca which is seriously underfunded, near the salt lake. I sent them supplies because I was only visiting. They need spaying and neutering. I know Greece has a problem, too. I live in Tbilisi, Georgia and it's out of control here with cats and dogs. I rehomed 14 in Ukraine and 7 in the US, wish I could do more. Some I couldn't save. I remember every one of them😭
I own 7, but almost always have fosters as well. Sometimes a new litter, so I know I have had upwards of 20 cats in my home at some point. Also, are you single? Let’s chat! Lol
The first lady melted my heart. When she looked at the camera and smiled with such joy after showing off pictures of her cats really had me feeling some type of way. It was pure joy in her eyes lol
Джозеф that is so funny!!!!! I read your comment and could not stop laughing- i called people from the office to come to my desk and read this. We all laughed!!
Jenny and her 16 cats really tugged at my heart strings. She looks like she’s holding it down and the cats are happy and well taken care of. I hope she one day REALLY believes she’s not defective.
She IS mentally ill. She has serious problems and needs help, nothing about that is normal or healthy. if you think it is then YOU need mental help as well.
Actually I think that the First Lady is just a bit odd the second w/ 16 is probably on the autism spectrum and the rescue might be a hoarder just one with resources
adopting my cat off the street changed my life. he is my son, he’s never judged me, I take good care of him and he takes care of me. i don’t know what i’d do without him.
The cat isn't your son and never will be. Also, if you're a crappy person, just say that. You seem concerned about being judged which would imply you're a bad person.
@@HaggisMuncher-69-420 lol you seem to have some personal issues you need to deal with. i take very good care of my cats, i put their health and well being before mine. i think you're just jealous no one cares that much about you. get help

Cc I think he meant people who claim that their hoarding is a rescue. I thought the same thing initially though, a legitimate 501 c (3) is a nonprofit rescue status and has regulations in order to obtain and keep. Ziggy, didn’t have that from what I could tell, nothing was receiving proper medical care but she referred to herself as a “rescue” when in reality (although with good intentions) she has become a hoarder
I think he meant in terms of the psychology. Both are trying to save cats from the streets. One just wants to keep them and the other wants to find them homes. In some cases the lines get blurred though.
Good rescue requires the ability to provide appropriate food and medical care, to let animals go to new homes, and to exercise restraint when bringing new animals in. Hoarders can call themselves rescuers, but that doesn't make it true.
you help feral cats by vaccinating them, by sterilizing them, de-worming them, feeding them regularly and *NOT* by keeping them in a house with hundreds of other cats. No.
Yes I agree with your statement 100% but I think something like this would be beneficial for every stray animal/ country, instead of killing them or just letting them reproduce, like it’s the case in so many countries
We (my boyfriend and I) have nine cats. But all of them are chipped, vaccinated, dewormed, castrated and properly taken care of.We built a catio on our terrace and they have a cat flap. We have our own house. We saved a few of our cats from very harsh conditions. They thank us every day! Yes, I'm a cat lady and I love it! My boyfriend Mike is a cat lord 😁❤️
I have one. But I don't have many videos online. By now, we have 11 cats. I had to take them in, because one of them has a heart disease and they would put him down in a shelter. He has to take medicine every single day...
@Carina_ loves_ cats I agree thank you. We just need to learn our limits and only take on what we can and stop when we are ahead..I have 15 I'm stopping now
@final boss I think the prod team just asked her to do the entry for the cut and she's actually been there for a while, which is why her dog wasn't that excited when he saw her
It’s really sad that they all have bad memories of growing up. It’s like humans failed them and the animals gave them unconditional love to make up for that. Whatever makes you happy without hurting others
Thank you for saying that! I am 22 and have 13 cats that I’ve rescued. My family tells me I need to get down to 2 cats and that they will affect my life in bad way and people put me down for it a lot. But they’re very healthy, well nourished loving cats. They make my life so amazing. A lot of people don’t know about how many cats are put down in animal shelters because there’s too many. The fact that I have saved them from that fate makes the judgment from people worth it :)
that honestly sounds very lonely. itd be hard to find someone thats ok with that many animals to live with and to take care of them in case u need to travel. even the chick says she knows she has a problem and is lonely.
She's beautiful. Though that is just a few too many cats, I'm happy with the one I rescued, though she was already spayed and is scared of people, with an hernia that wasn't operated on and terrible fleas and ear infections. I just wish we could foster some kittens to help with her maternal instincts.
Have to say that your implication that 'you have to experience it to understand it' is what all cult members say. It seems hoarding cats is just another cult like any other.
Oh yeah, the true love of keeping a hundred cats you can't possibly have a relationship with or properly medically care for in a filthy house that apparently stinks so bad the neighbors can smell it. I own cats. Have my entire life. I love cats. But if you can't properly care for them, you're doing more harm than good.
😸😸😸 I talk to my three all the time. I tell them when I'm going to go shower, going to leave the house. I promise to bring back treats or toys. Is that odd?
@@cats9654 Before I read your post, i was going to ask if they knew what food etc meant. 😺. I don't say food, kitchen, treats out loud unless I want to feed my monsters.... I mean little darlings. Every morning, lunch and dinner time Joe my Male comes to alert me that it's time to eat. We have a routine, he stares at me, I ask him if it's time. He meows, I say are you sure, he meows again and touches my face with his left paw. Then, we go to the kitchen were the girls are waiting. Yes, I'm a crazy cat lady.
@@cats9654 ,my 3 are always inside. But, I live in area where we have people that allow their dogs to run free, plus we have cayotes and hawks. I worry about what would happen if they were to go out. The routine of feeding them, is their canned food, they have "crunchies" dry food available at all times. Yes,they have treats, no certain time. How many do you have? Just curious not trying to be nosy.
The reason these women are so brutally honest about their own life is because cats accept you for who you are. They bring out your true self and don't judge.
Omg lol cats are so judgemental,the amount of people here who don't understand cat behaviour is outstanding....I'm an ex vet nurse and I have three cats,cats will turn their back on you,they are ignorant and think you are their servant...I still love them though
@@intuitiveeevee Just like humans, cats have different personalities. Some cats do seem judgmental, but other cats are the sweetest, most accepting creatures alive. That "arrogant cat" stereotype is annoying.
in Istanbul everyone takes care of the cats on the streets, they can enter every place and someone will help them or offer some leftovers, they are healthy and most importantly free
I'm in Israel, and I always keep fresh water out for the feral cats. In the summer I have to fill the bowls several times a day. My next door neighbor feeds all of them.
@@chetyoubetya8565 Nope, she's German. She said so herself! She has bad arthritic hands and far too many cats for an ordinary domestic household! Although, she does love them.
It can be surprisingly hard to make new friends as an introverted adult. If there's no one at work with similar interests, you don't really go out much, and you don't "feel lonely" (no urge to reach out). Especially when you can get a quick friend fix online by chatting, gaming, or indulging in some one-sided friendships by watching people's vlogs. It's sad if you stop and think about, but you don't think about it all that often. And before you know it, precious years have passed and you've got nothing to show for it in the friendship department. I speak from experience. If it wasn't for my furry friends, I would probably lose it. _dammit I just dried my eyes after watching this..._ T_T
You guys are lonely because you chose to, you can make yourself not lonely by changing your beliefs and opinion about other people. If you sucessfully convince yourself that other people are good and you will accept them for all their flaws(jealousy, envy) and you will drop all your fantasy ideals in favor of allowing yourself to experience others, you will never be lonely. But you can't just escape life or find excuse with cats to avoid people. Start with affirmations and opinions and write them on paper and read them everyday and you will see that you are your worst enemy and you are all your diseases and cure as well.
Mubarak Alsaleh may be other people do not want want friends, some people are naturally introverted, having too many people in your life can actually be very stressful and over whelming. At one time I had many friends and it got too much for me, I'm much happier having a couple of special close friends than loads of people in my life. Not to mention trying to please people all the time is very hard work, I'm tired of being a people pleaser and people taking advantage all the time. I have a couple of cats in my life, have creative hobbys and am much better and happier for it. It is not compulsory to have friends although your comment offers good advice for those who might want to make friends.
i think who ever owns the farm did not own the cat the lady didn't just stroll in to a private farm , as much as we love cats they do hunt and cause distress to chickens ducks ... so i understand .
What about the "certified flushable" non-clay kind? I've been flushing World's Best for years without issue. Litterbox near the toilet, scoop, flush, done.
PongoXBongo yep.. or Feline Pine is another one.. I knew someone who also used that regularly for years. I tried it myself but had to go back to traditional clumping clay/sand because one of mine was _very_ particular and would not use it. When I first adopted her I had to put down plastic like painter's use to protect the carpet and then put old news paper over that (for easy cleanup) because she wouldn't use the litter box properly. She was the first cat I ever cared for so I didn't know any better, I think I had just gotten some Johnny Cat non-scoopable litter. She would go near the box but rarely if ever in it. An experienced cat-mom suggested to me that some cats don't like certain scents or textures to their litter. I went through most brands/types that I could find at the store before finding that she was happy with Tidy Cats and Fresh Step scoopable/clumping. I can't flush it, but at least I get a workout lugging heavy trash bags of used litter to the dumpster!
As a plumber's daughter, I can vouch for what Frostian is saying. Please don't flush ANYTHING except toilet paper and body waste. Don't flush cat litter. Don't flush wipes. Don't flush feminine products (even the internal ones). Don't flush paper towels. Wrap all of these things and throw them in the trash. They might not cause problems for YOU, but be guaranteed that they WILL cause problems down the line for your community/ city. Every year, towns spend an inordinate amount of money (larger cities spend multi-millions) cleaning out the sewer clogs of all of these supposedly 'flushable' things. When these truly NON-flushable things get mixed with the grease from dishes going down the sink, they create 'fatbergs' (like icebergs) that cost millions to remove. Guess who gets the cost of that shunted to their bills? YOU and everyone else you know.
This is the best documentary of all time and Ive watched it over and over through the years. There’s no better way to catch the personality of some of the most amazing cat owners. It puts such a smile on my face. Even when they’re begging for conjugal visits. I wonder if she ever found anybody?
Well..my husband of one year didn't like cats. He's a dog person. Recently i adopted a kitten..slowly but surely she grew on him. Yesterday, he said he thinks he loves cats..I can never forget that moment.
Same with my husband. Did not like cats at all until we moved in together. He still doesn't pick them up because he's scared he's going to hurt them, but when they sit with him, he's all smiles. I hear him talking to them all the time, it's so funny.
Man I love that lady with three cats. She seems so down to earth and just overall lovely. I would hang out with her and look at cat photo albums. I really truly wish her all the best.
My girlfriend is a "crazy" cat lady. Before i met her,i was an ignorant boy,who never lifted an eyebrow towards animals apart from the occasional own. She really opened up a whole new world. We currently have 31 rescued cats in our home .We take good care of them... In our country,poeple don't give a damn about abandoned,often tortured cats in need. So we do the best we can,so they can have a good life. We also don't have a life,never go out hahaha... Edit:We have 37... :D
Awwwwww ♥️♥️♥️♥️thank you for what you do I neutered 97 cats I got 39 at one time, I have 6 I take care of them the best I can I have no life either 😁😁😂😂😂 what country are you?
The boyfriend who was always stoned 😭 Then one day he forgot to smoke and realized he had a girlfriend and left? 😭😭😭😂😢 Poor girl. That's so funny and yet so sad.
She should try comedy. Also, she’s really good looking, I think she could do great. However I think she should find her cats new home. 16 cats is to many and will scared people. I think the magic 🪄 number is 3 and that’s even to much for one person.
That’s the kind of mentality that lay people in relationships use to justify doing nothing and forcing their SO to take care of them while contributing nothing.
@Kat Eldritch ahahahaha i thought I was the only one who noticed! She’s so pure, you can read everything on her face. I feel so protective of her. I wanna give her a hug, or something.
I think the dividing line is, if your house is clean, well maintained and you have a Ton of money to keep those cats in A 1 condition...I guess....its OK...but...that doesnt appear to be the case. A URI can spread through this population like wildfire and the vet bills are astronomical.
I watch a couple that fosters cats on UA-cam and has more cats than I could maintain (5 plus fosters)...but I also noticed they seem to have WAY more money than I do, plus working from home, they have the time to give them appropriate care to make sure they and their cats are healthy. That in my mind is totally appropriate, since they are very in tune with their cats' needs. It's when you can't maintain everyone's health and safety (yours and the pets) and your life isn't in balance that it's a problem. (Note: "in balance" DOES NOT have to mean "married with kids.")
For all we know those cats argue over who will be chosen each day for bonus kibble covered human hands. Possibly the highest blessing in their kitty cat kingdom.
Ngl I’m 21, live on my own and recently got a kitten. As someone who has suffered from mental health issues their whole life, my cat is the one thing that makes me feel truly happy. I feel so sad for ladies like these who have found something safe that makes them truly happy, but they just get ridiculed for it. It’s a hard world out there, especially when you don’t quite ‘fit in’ - people should be allowed to do what makes them feel happy.
@Musings it was like that for me when I got a cat too. I had an awful childhood and suffered with depression for years, I got a cat and it helped me through some of my toughest times.
You are all superwomen. As a cat lover ,I totally understand you. My cats give me so much relief and happiness. I love them.more than human beings as they are pure. I have 3 and I rescued so many. I am so thankful.
Animal hoarding… when it’s more that you can hold …. It’s when cats are sick and dying and you don’t take them to the vet … or it’s dirty around . And all those cages - is terrible 😣 ! Or person in debt 💸 because of it … it’s crazy .
My heart breaks at the thought of these kind women suffering alone. They mean well, they honestly care with their entire hearts and all I wish for them is the love and acceptance they deserve and give to their cats
My heart breaks for people who don't do their part and try to help stray cats who have been abandon by moron humans because when you get down to it, it's humans who created this problem

i've thought of that exact thing to a lot of these people i keep seeing on the other channels. like 18 kids and counting or i'm addicted to having babies. THAT is too many. at least the pet owners are paying for thier animals and not taking money out of society to help pay for thier babies.
@@Barbievel it is my business when my tax paying dollars goes into paying for their children. At least pet owners don't ask for handouts. if you can't have a kid without asking for support for them, then obviously you can't afford it. :)
@@amyhipps2989 I commented before I watched, I really thought OP was talking about sexual partners for some reason and not cats lol and as far as what you’re talking about I have no idea either lol
Having several cats saved my life after my only child was killed. They gave me so much love and allowed me to love and care for them. As long as they are clean, healthy, and loved...why not?
I loved the first lady, she seems to be such a sweet beautiful soul. The second is very funny. They are kind of lonely and sad but the cats help making their lives a little happier in my opinion. I think that they are very functional women who take good care of their animals, in opposite of the other two who cleary have a serious problem…
The 2nd lady, though. LMAO @ "honestly, I'd be happy with conjugal visits at this point. I've had a couple of boyfriends. One of them was stoned all the time. He must've forgot to smoke one day and was like, oh my God, I've got a girlfriend?!" Hilarious. She should be doing stand-up.
The lady with 16 cats and 1 dog, really she's perfect. I want to be her friend, she's funny too, and her house is so clean. There's nothing wrong with her. Hope she find someone that accepts her wornderful personality.❤
@@FixedFace if she can feed them, take care of them, keeping her home clean and mostly, if cats are therapeutic for her, I honestly don't see the problem. She seriously loves animals as she also got a dog and animals are peace and love for our soul.
The one lady with 152 cats pushed me over the edge. She is absolutely insane and should never be allowed to have that many cats. It looks like a lot of them are in cages. That's no way to treat a cat. Right after that scene, I switch to something else. I could not watch anymore of this insanity.
@Theresa: Me too! I had to change the channel. The cats that were behind that drawer (start of the video) acted as if they had been stuck there for days. They were frightened. I hope something has been done - cats don’t belong in cages!
Sorry but I do think you are wrong, her cats look healthy clean and well fed (at great cost to herself) and I'm sure if you went to any cat sanctuary which she is you would find a few cats in cages that are sick or need to settle in , would you prefer she left them in the cold to starve?
I have 1 cat for 11 years. Recently, just got a cat sitting gig. The lady has 6 cats in an apartment, the place smells like concentrated ammonia that I gagged repeatedly every few secs when I 1st arrived. People like that needs help.
@@macrick Having six cats won't make a person's residence smell that bad unless the person isn't properly caring for the litterboxes or they don't have enough litter boxes. In a household of six cats, there should be at least 7 litter boxes that should be thoroughly scooped daily. I have two cats and three litter boxes. If it appears that a fourth litter box is needed, then I'll add one. Depending on the type of litter, litter boxes should be sanitized and refreshed weekly to monthly. If the litter boxes are well maintained and it still smells, then there is at least one cat that is not using the litter box due to a health issue or a behavioral issue.
I agree. But when you think about it, the main problem in my opinion is that so many of these cats, have been left uncared for by previous owners. Haven't been neutered either so the result is a boom in stray cats.
The second woman is a TOTAL CATCH. I don't know her personally but she's funny and attractive. Shes right, she's not hurting anyone and the cats are well taken care of. I hope she finds her cat dad one day.
She also seems pretty sane. She is aware of her situation and is aware getting too many would be a bad idea. I also say this in the kindest way as I do believe the ones who claim to be rescuers have some insanity as they aren't able to care for them and find them homes. So they keep doing the same thing over and over again (catch a cat, house, and feed) and expect different results (rehoming and saving them). This lady doesn't have this mentality, she's clearly lonely yes but she's pretty and sweet and should be able to find herself a cat dad.
She seems to have a lot of good qualities based on this video. Like a lot of us, she probably has to work through some personal issues with intimacy and forming healthy relationships that perhaps manifests in owning more cats than she HERSELF thinks is totally healthy (tbh it doesn't look outlandish to me given that she lives in a standalone house). She seems to have more than enough going on to have a decent amount of choice in men when she decides to genuinely look for a LTR.
The mommy of Bongo...I'd gladly be her friend! She seems very kind and maybe a bit introverted. Which is fine by me! We can stay in and eat ice cream and watch movies lol
I totally agrree. I know a lady that has 10 sick rescued dogs and she is not labelled crazy, nor is her husband although naturally these create a lot of work and expense
It would shock and upset me if a woman having 3 cats is termed that way, many people have 3-5 cats and are considered quite 'normal'...if that is even the right term. I have the greatest respect for people who give a good life and love to cats.
My grandmother have 3 cats and 2 dogs,yet she is not a crazy cat lady,you know why? Because she didnt have a room full of cat pictures,and dont want to breastfeed them. They are just house animals for her,not babies and whatnot. I think that's the difference
I am a cat man from the UK who thinks all you cat ladies are just wonderful. my cat is called Carol she is black and white and 14 years old and most beautiful.

" They are a non prescription anti depressant " I absolutely agree. I adore every one of the precious ferral and stray cats and kittens who ( from 2006 to date ) chose to adopt me as their "Mom", including those who have passed. Of course they are all well fed, loved and steralised. Every one of them knows that they have me wrapped around their little paws lol.
@@skeptigal2785 Hi, currently I have 7. 4 cats have passed away in the last 3 years, and 2 more have adopted us in the last year. Do you have any cats?
I have one cat. He eats expensive cat food because he is picky, I couldn't afford another and my apartment only allows for two pets. Each pet requires a 500 dollar deposit plus 25 dollar rent every month.
I'm a 'crazy cat guy' because Ive taken two that my neighbor left behind when she moved, and I already had my 1. I have three and 1 outside that isn't mine that I watch out for. She belongs to some folks that live on the street behind me but they don't seem to care about her much. After I noticed they leave her out all night in the cold I built her a box and i run a little heat pad in there for her. But yeah, im called a 'crazy cat person' all the time for this.
You're not a crazy cat person. You do love cats but you aren't crazy. That's so kind and wonderful! I adore animals (especially cats) and would do the same!
That second lady absolutely broke my heart. I relate to her on a lot of levels. It sounds like she was a parentified eldest daughter and never really broke out of that. :(
She is a hoarder, but compared to other hoarding situations I've seen, that is definitely the cleanest house with the healthiest cats I've ever seen. She's a hoarder who takes care of them, which is a huge shocker. But I do believe she should help re-home a vast majority of them, for her and their sake. Though she seems to understand that.
I know a man with a huge home in the city. Its like the most valuable museum inside with antique furniture, paintings, toys, crystal, china displayed, worth $$$$ + 18 kittys. He hasnt any kids and looking for someone to help him due to age. Whoever steps up to the kittys when he passes will get the home, the land its on, and Everything!

@@BubbleArcadia If I could rescue all the cats I would however the ones I have get lots of attention and care. In the state of USA i live in it is against the law. We might pay high fines if caught. I cant afford the time or $$ to do this. Maybe you could
I’m a vet tech who worked in feline only rescue medicine, cats are extremely intelligent and clean creatures, and no offense, but they’re so much smarter than dogs (don’t come for me, I love all animals). Simply amazing little creatures, they’re so resilient, I will forever be a cat person and I will forever love rescue medicine. After you see some horror stories and some of the things these cats lived through before coming to the shelter, and you get the honor of treating them and caring for them until they’re healthy enough to be adopted, and you see them leaving with their new family knowing you played a part in their health and their new forever home, there’s no other feeling in the world like that.
The brown haired woman has a point. If you can afford to take care of the cats, keep a regular job and your not hurting anyone, who cares if you want to have a bunch of cats. Whose business is it anyway.
I'm fortunate that I work at an animal hospital, so I get discounts on medications and procedures. My husband and I can afford to take care of our 12 cats. I'll never regret being a cat lady.
For some, like us, it's about money. We have two we need to spay and we'll have to wait for next month and the month after to afford it. We keep the cats inside so they won't breed.

I almost died of shock and horror when she brought that feral cat in from the country and just dumped it in a cage with another cat, in a room full of loose cats, with no proper quarantine period. And the one cat she took out in a blanket was SO SICK there's no way it should be anywhere near the others, it should be in it's own quiet room well away from other cats. Some of her animals were in horrific condition. Tbh many of them would have been better off on the streets. Many places are moving to a spay/neuter and release program for feral cats - their outcomes are better when they're allowed to stay outdoors.
You know, I'm not even convinced that she thinks she's right. It's obviously more about her ego and her having a sense of control than it is about helping the cats. The cats don't mean anything to her, they're just objects. I mean, she literally used one as a hand towel. It's so sad :(
The part where she wiped off the food on the cats was so disturbing to me. It just says so much. I mean, who would do that? She's very unhygienic and just crazy! The part where she trapped the cat and then said she could see in their eyes after she traps them that they know they were saved... I see a very terrified cat whose life is about to change for the worse. Those poor cats living in cramped conditions, it must smell just awful. It's just horrible life for them. She clearly can't even think of what it's like for them. She just wants to keep collecting more. It is very selfish indeed!
Suchnothing ME TOO!!!! In the beginning I thought she was going to TNT them...but when she brought it HOME....i was yelling at the screen! How HORRIBLE!!
I started off jokingly like this will be me, now I’m freaking crying because it’s so close to home. The feeling like an outcast, loneliness, the need to care for something, a rocky childhood, feeling trapped and lost in life...and RIP Bongo, this random stranger cried for you (and for that kitten).
This is a great video. The best part is seeing how much the interviewees BEAM when they talk about their cats. You can feel the love. Thanks for sharing!
@@TheChickenRiceBowl Why is that funny to you? Her being abused as a child. At least she didn't turn school shooter or mall bomber! Yes, she could use some help rehoming some of her kitties, but that can be very traumatic to have to part with them, not knowing if they will be properly cared for, abandoned in the street when their human moves, be in a domestic situation where they will be abused, or surrendered to an overly full shelter to be murdered just because they are no longer wanted. That loss of control can send them into a downward spiral mentally, and just like as a child, they are mocked and ridiculed because they choose cats over humans. No one wants to step up and be their friend and confidante. I think any past 6 is getting into the realm of excessive, but if we judged less, and cared more, there would be more adoption centers, and fewer "cat ladies!" God Bless and love to each of these woman who are at least TRYING to remedy the situation in their own little part of the world. 💜 🥰
The lady with 123 cats needs to have a catio outdoors (a protective enclosure) so they can’t escape or be hurt. At the same time, I do hope she is on social media or local networks making sure she hasn’t “rescued” someone’s pet. I have a cat rescue and believe in TNR and take care of up to a dozen or so at a time.
you'd be more crazy to not talk to your pets i'd say. over the 16 years i had a cat he became more and more likely to talk back in his language when i spoke to him lol, leading to deep conversations. mostly about food though.
I have observed Cat obsessed people are usually very down to earth, honest, do not mask off their emotions, and enjoy their own company and most of them have had hard time adjusting with the pretentious society . This is why they might come across society as weird or out of the box. People do not appreciate those qualities. Sad in today's world that is why its hard to find a partner. And looking after cats give them a purpose , a comfort and knowing someone needs them. Its sad but sweet too.
if you don't do the same as everyone else in this society , as an individual should, considered crazy . Even if most are unhappy doing it. Unconscious living.
I understand the concern for taking care of these animals, but after getting too many of them it does more harm than it helps :( sad to see all those cats in cages
Nooooo the woman with over 100 cats that just becomes abusive at that point because there is no way it is humane for over 100 cats to live in a single home. I doubt she can properly take care of all of them the way they need. They looked unkempt. This is an animal hoarding issue and illegal for her to own that many.
Very interesting and ambiguous documentary . It remains me our cat Grunya, who flew to the rainbow after almost twenty years of bright presence in our lives. I wish everyone to be happy! With or without cats
It’s a bit demanding for their day to day life... “oh hey, can you watch my 16 cats while I go away on a vacation/ get married/visit a friend?” I can imagine the litter boxes are consistently full...
The realtor who plays the violin seems pretty cool to me. I like (what I perceive to be) her sense of humour... when she said "I'm not on medication... any more" I chuckled, and I found her likable, honest, and heartwarming. I wish her all of the best. I feel like she still has a chance to have the life she wishes she had.
@JexDahSnak Rose , well, at some point (number), you can't manage them. My two take up quite a bit of my time - and money - between PROPERLY feeding, watering, grooming, vetting, and loving on them. Four isn't excessive. 100, needless to say...
I feel much empathy for those womens. I wish them all the support, because besides the loneliness, they have to work a lot to feed and care. It’s so easy to call them crazy and turn around not helping.
Yes. She has such sadness and trauma and understanding in her eyes. She knows and has seen too much and you can see it in her eyes. She's probably extremely empathetic too. I hope she finds a lover.
What i never understood is why its okay for people to wanna die for their dogs, but loving cats makes you "crazy"
It’s not the fact they own cats, most of these woman are decent owners who also take care of themselves and know what they are doing. Even the lady with 16 cats has everything under control and her cats are clean and healthy. But the ones with over 100 cats seem to have problems with keeping things clean and under control. How can you assure the safety of those woman and all those cats if they pick every single cat they see on their streets? Especially if they can’t afford to take them to the vet...the amount of diseases that can go on are intense and dangerous for both the cats and owner. That’s the real Cat Lady problem.
Becoz there are too many bad PR on cats I think... whereas dog has always been portrayed as man's best friend! :P My poor kitties
I always think that! it annoys me
Because we see dogs as MAN'S best friend more so than WOMEN'S best friend. And we RARELY judge men as much as we judge women. Men who proclaim to be bachelors and "only need my dogs" almost never get this much heat. Even if they are 50 years old.
@@pfchan9052 agreed but people also do it to dogs
All of these women are incredibly honest and open about their situation. It is especially brave considering the way society ridicules and humiliates unmarried older women.
Excellent observation, Deja. These women, in many ways, are the lucky ones. One of the advantages of being in a "despised" class is getting to see peoples' true colors. Getting past their ill treatment or dismissal, one can be thankful to know the truth about them. The best response is to wear one's own quiet dignity and to be always kind, merciful, and polite and because they are the ones who need it most. The other advantage is in having real friends who see a person of value.
I'm going to be one of this Lady's.. And I'm only 33. Got 3 cats and 2 chinchillas, they are my kids, i spend all my money on them, i go to work and go straight home to be with them. I'm bipolar and done having them, I've become a better person. Not everyone wants to get married and have kids, I've done the relationships, stepkids, false friends...

I thought the same thing
At the age of 19 i was a crazy cat guy, i rescued strays in Greece, fed them, loved them and got them to peak health before finding them a new loving home.
My biggest achievent is getting 26 at one go adopted by a old couple. Miss every single one of them and breaks my heart everytime i let another one go, im 45 now and can still remember the face and personality of every single cat the passed through my arms. I fuckin' love cats!
Still i think some of these cases border abuse, like 116 cats in a house i think thats a bit cruel. You might as well put them in a zoo if you are going to treat them like that.
Cats are unique companions because they choose you, they are not collectables you stack in cages like wtf?
There's a huge "sanctuary" in Larnaca which is seriously underfunded, near the salt lake. I sent them supplies because I was only visiting. They need spaying and neutering. I know Greece has a problem, too. I live in Tbilisi, Georgia and it's out of control here with cats and dogs. I rehomed 14 in Ukraine and 7 in the US, wish I could do more. Some I couldn't save. I remember every one of them😭
I haven't met a cat I didn't fall in love with ❣

A cat rescuer and a cat hoarder are not the same.
Cc I think he meant people who claim that their hoarding is a rescue. I thought the same thing initially though, a legitimate 501 c (3) is a nonprofit rescue status and has regulations in order to obtain and keep. Ziggy, didn’t have that from what I could tell, nothing was receiving proper medical care but she referred to herself as a “rescue” when in reality (although with good intentions) she has become a hoarder
I think he meant in terms of the psychology. Both are trying to save cats from the streets. One just wants to keep them and the other wants to find them homes. In some cases the lines get blurred though.
Agree
Especially when countless of those cats probably have heartbroken owners at home.
Good rescue requires the ability to provide appropriate food and medical care, to let animals go to new homes, and to exercise restraint when bringing new animals in. Hoarders can call themselves rescuers, but that doesn't make it true.
you help feral cats by vaccinating them, by sterilizing them, de-worming them, feeding them regularly and *NOT* by keeping them in a house with hundreds of other cats. No.
jana ktnc I agree with you.
Agree.
yea the lady with 100 cats was pushing it, but she gave her cats medical attention and kept her place relatively clean. Ziggy is not helping her cats.
Yes I agree with your statement 100% but I think something like this would be beneficial for every stray animal/ country, instead of killing them or just letting them reproduce, like it’s the case in so many countries
Exactly! They need to be taken away from her, sterilized and rehomed - or maybe given back to the owners she accidentally stole them from.
We (my boyfriend and I) have nine cats. But all of them are chipped, vaccinated, dewormed, castrated and properly taken care of.We built a catio on our terrace and they have a cat flap. We have our own house. We saved a few of our cats from very harsh conditions. They thank us every day! Yes, I'm a cat lady and I love it! My boyfriend Mike is a cat lord 😁❤️
Bob Barker: They BETTER be spayed or neutered!!
Make a channel!!!!!
I have one. But I don't have many videos online. By now, we have 11 cats. I had to take them in, because one of them has a heart disease and they would put him down in a shelter. He has to take medicine every single day...

Nothing wrong with being a cat lady as long as the animals are well cared for and you live in sanitary conditions.
Cats are great! The sour attitude that some people have toward cat ladies is just silly.
I disagree...there is something wrong with me being a cat lady.
:P
Thank you for saying that! I am 22 and have 13 cats that I’ve rescued. My family tells me I need to get down to 2 cats and that they will affect my life in bad way and people put me down for it a lot. But they’re very healthy, well nourished loving cats. They make my life so amazing. A lot of people don’t know about how many cats are put down in animal shelters because there’s too many. The fact that I have saved them from that fate makes the judgment from people worth it :)
Same for not cats ladies.

If you have never had a cat then you don’t understand. These are precious ladies who truly love their cats.
Have to say that your implication that 'you have to experience it to understand it' is what all cult members say. It seems hoarding cats is just another cult like any other.
@@emmajane646 It can certainly become a compulsive or addictive behavior, but i don't see any of the qualities of being cult-like..

How many do you have? Just curious not trying to be nosy.

cats are special and they are loving in their own way
The reason these women are so brutally honest about their own life is because cats accept you for who you are. They bring out your true self and don't judge.

It can be surprisingly hard to make new friends as an introverted adult. If there's no one at work with similar interests, you don't really go out much, and you don't "feel lonely" (no urge to reach out). Especially when you can get a quick friend fix online by chatting, gaming, or indulging in some one-sided friendships by watching people's vlogs. It's sad if you stop and think about, but you don't think about it all that often. And before you know it, precious years have passed and you've got nothing to show for it in the friendship department. I speak from experience. If it wasn't for my furry friends, I would probably lose it. _dammit I just dried my eyes after watching this..._ T_T
No one should, but lots of people are. Me involved.
I'd be her friend.
You guys are lonely because you chose to, you can make yourself not lonely by changing your beliefs and opinion about other people. If you sucessfully convince yourself that other people are good and you will accept them for all their flaws(jealousy, envy) and you will drop all your fantasy ideals in favor of allowing yourself to experience others, you will never be lonely. But you can't just escape life or find excuse with cats to avoid people. Start with affirmations and opinions and write them on paper and read them everyday and you will see that you are your worst enemy and you are all your diseases and cure as well.
Mubarak Alsaleh may be other people do not want want friends, some people are naturally introverted, having too many people in your life can actually be very stressful and over whelming. At one time I had many friends and it got too much for me, I'm much happier having a couple of special close friends than loads of people in my life. Not to mention trying to please people all the time is very hard work, I'm tired of being a people pleaser and people taking advantage all the time. I have a couple of cats in my life, have creative hobbys and am much better and happier for it. It is not compulsory to have friends although your comment offers good advice for those who might want to make friends.
That one cat she trapped was living on a farm, hunting mice and strolling through her territory. Living in a cage is definitely a worse fate.
I considered that kidnapping, really pissed me off.
@Hans Müller "you don't own cat, cat owns you" is definitely not an overused trope joke.
@@orchidlilly7518 me too!! That cat had a nice life and that dirty loonie ruined it

Don't flush the litter down the toilet, it clogs the pipes with time. Carry it out with the trash.
Frostian and take the cats out with u
What about the "certified flushable" non-clay kind? I've been flushing World's Best for years without issue. Litterbox near the toilet, scoop, flush, done.
PongoXBongo yep.. or Feline Pine is another one.. I knew someone who also used that regularly for years. I tried it myself but had to go back to traditional clumping clay/sand because one of mine was _very_ particular and would not use it.
When I first adopted her I had to put down plastic like painter's use to protect the carpet and then put old news paper over that (for easy cleanup) because she wouldn't use the litter box properly. She was the first cat I ever cared for so I didn't know any better, I think I had just gotten some Johnny Cat non-scoopable litter. She would go near the box but rarely if ever in it. An experienced cat-mom suggested to me that some cats don't like certain scents or textures to their litter. I went through most brands/types that I could find at the store before finding that she was happy with Tidy Cats and Fresh Step scoopable/clumping.
I can't flush it, but at least I get a workout lugging heavy trash bags of used litter to the dumpster!
As a plumber's daughter, I can vouch for what Frostian is saying. Please don't flush ANYTHING except toilet paper and body waste. Don't flush cat litter. Don't flush wipes. Don't flush feminine products (even the internal ones). Don't flush paper towels. Wrap all of these things and throw them in the trash. They might not cause problems for YOU, but be guaranteed that they WILL cause problems down the line for your community/ city. Every year, towns spend an inordinate amount of money (larger cities spend multi-millions) cleaning out the sewer clogs of all of these supposedly 'flushable' things. When these truly NON-flushable things get mixed with the grease from dishes going down the sink, they create 'fatbergs' (like icebergs) that cost millions to remove. Guess who gets the cost of that shunted to their bills? YOU and everyone else you know.
Frostian I was thinking the same thing. I’ve never flushed cat litter
This is the best documentary of all time and Ive watched it over and over through the years. There’s no better way to catch the personality of some of the most amazing cat owners. It puts such a smile on my face. Even when they’re begging for conjugal visits. I wonder if she ever found anybody?
I hope she did find someone who loves and appreciates her and treats her with love and respect.
Well..my husband of one year didn't like cats. He's a dog person. Recently i adopted a kitten..slowly but surely she grew on him. Yesterday, he said he thinks he loves cats..I can never forget that moment.

She should try comedy. Also, she’s really good looking, I think she could do great. However I think she should find her cats new home. 16 cats is to many and will scared people. I think the magic 🪄 number is 3 and that’s even to much for one person.

Best line ever - "My cats take care of me by letting me take care of them!" Definitely!

I can relate as I feel the exact same!
That’s the kind of mentality that lay people in relationships use to justify doing nothing and forcing their SO to take care of them while contributing nothing.
Thanks!
I love the second girl, "I have friends, I go out," *eyes flood with panic*
@Kat Eldritch ahahahaha i thought I was the only one who noticed! She’s so pure, you can read everything on her face.
I feel so protective of her. I wanna give her a hug, or something.
I think the dividing line is, if your house is clean, well maintained and you have a Ton of money to keep those cats in A 1 condition...I guess....its OK...but...that doesnt appear to be the case. A URI can spread through this population like wildfire and the vet bills are astronomical.
I watch a couple that fosters cats on UA-cam and has more cats than I could maintain (5 plus fosters)...but I also noticed they seem to have WAY more money than I do, plus working from home, they have the time to give them appropriate care to make sure they and their cats are healthy. That in my mind is totally appropriate, since they are very in tune with their cats' needs. It's when you can't maintain everyone's health and safety (yours and the pets) and your life isn't in balance that it's a problem. (Note: "in balance" DOES NOT have to mean "married with kids.")
Omg right!!! That'd be me too. I only have one cat, though

For all we know those cats argue over who will be chosen each day for bonus kibble covered human hands. Possibly the highest blessing in their kitty cat kingdom.
Ngl I’m 21, live on my own and recently got a kitten. As someone who has suffered from mental health issues their whole life, my cat is the one thing that makes me feel truly happy. I feel so sad for ladies like these who have found something safe that makes them truly happy, but they just get ridiculed for it. It’s a hard world out there, especially when you don’t quite ‘fit in’ - people should be allowed to do what makes them feel happy.
that's how it starts. get rid of it now, go to a therapist, go to the bar, do something other than use furdemons as a cope.
@Musings it was like that for me when I got a cat too. I had an awful childhood and suffered with depression for years, I got a cat and it helped me through some of my toughest times.
You are all superwomen. As a cat lover ,I totally understand you. My cats give me so much relief and happiness. I love them.more than human beings as they are pure.
I have 3 and I rescued so many. I am so thankful.

Eh, it's like a guy sleeping with a body pillow or a blow-up doll. They need love and acceptance I guess but good luck with that lol.
....It is not like sleeping with a body pillow or blow-up doll. The cat gives affection back and needs someone to take care of them.
There are also some cat ladies who are violent psychopaths. I have met a few.

No, we don't need more crazy cat ladies. They are mentally ill and cause problems.
When you stop saying names and counting bodies... you have too many.
i've thought of that exact thing to a lot of these people i keep seeing on the other channels. like 18 kids and counting or i'm addicted to having babies. THAT is too many. at least the pet owners are paying for thier animals and not taking money out of society to help pay for thier babies.

@@elizabethshuster218 same here
The one lady with 152 cats pushed me over the edge. She is absolutely insane and should never be allowed to have that many cats. It looks like a lot of them are in cages. That's no way to treat a cat. Right after that scene, I switch to something else. I could not watch anymore of this insanity.
@Theresa: Me too! I had to change the channel. The cats that were behind that drawer (start of the video) acted as if they had been stuck there for days. They were frightened. I hope something has been done - cats don’t belong in cages!
Sorry but I do think you are wrong, her cats look healthy clean and well fed (at great cost to herself) and I'm sure if you went to any cat sanctuary which she is you would find a few cats in cages that are sick or need to settle in , would you prefer she left them in the cold to starve?
I have 1 cat for 11 years. Recently, just got a cat sitting gig. The lady has 6 cats in an apartment, the place smells like concentrated ammonia that I gagged repeatedly every few secs when I 1st arrived. People like that needs help.
@@macrick Having six cats won't make a person's residence smell that bad unless the person isn't properly caring for the litterboxes or they don't have enough litter boxes. In a household of six cats, there should be at least 7 litter boxes that should be thoroughly scooped daily. I have two cats and three litter boxes. If it appears that a fourth litter box is needed, then I'll add one. Depending on the type of litter, litter boxes should be sanitized and refreshed weekly to monthly. If the litter boxes are well maintained and it still smells, then there is at least one cat that is not using the litter box due to a health issue or a behavioral issue.
I agree. But when you think about it, the main problem in my opinion is that so many of these cats, have been left uncared for by previous owners. Haven't been neutered either so the result is a boom in stray cats.
Wonderful to see these women and to hear their stories. Thank you for your honesty, compassion and love. Carry on :)
The second woman is a TOTAL CATCH. I don't know her personally but she's funny and attractive. Shes right, she's not hurting anyone and the cats are well taken care of. I hope she finds her cat dad one day.
She also seems pretty sane. She is aware of her situation and is aware getting too many would be a bad idea. I also say this in the kindest way as I do believe the ones who claim to be rescuers have some insanity as they aren't able to care for them and find them homes. So they keep doing the same thing over and over again (catch a cat, house, and feed) and expect different results (rehoming and saving them). This lady doesn't have this mentality, she's clearly lonely yes but she's pretty and sweet and should be able to find herself a cat dad.
seriously I totally agree. She is smart, funny, pretty and has a lot of cats. who cares? she takes great care of them.
She seems to have a lot of good qualities based on this video.
Like a lot of us, she probably has to work through some personal issues with intimacy and forming healthy relationships that perhaps manifests in owning more cats than she HERSELF thinks is totally healthy (tbh it doesn't look outlandish to me given that she lives in a standalone house). She seems to have more than enough going on to have a decent amount of choice in men when she decides to genuinely look for a LTR.
She looks great for her age!

Simply amazing little creatures, they’re so resilient, I will forever be a cat person and I will forever love rescue medicine. After you see some horror stories and some of the things these cats lived through before coming to the shelter, and you get the honor of treating them and caring for them until they’re healthy enough to be adopted, and you see them leaving with their new family knowing you played a part in their health and their new forever home, there’s no other feeling in the world like that.
The brown haired woman has a point. If you can afford to take care of the cats, keep a regular job and your not hurting anyone, who cares if you want to have a bunch of cats. Whose business is it anyway.

It's amazing to me how many people, in 2019, do not spay and neuter their cats. And let them out and just don't care.

For some, like us, it's about money. We have two we need to spay and we'll have to wait for next month and the month after to afford it. We keep the cats inside so they won't breed.

All these women are so caring & it’s clear they just have more empathy than most people but no humans to relate to.
I almost died of shock and horror when she brought that feral cat in from the country and just dumped it in a cage with another cat, in a room full of loose cats, with no proper quarantine period. And the one cat she took out in a blanket was SO SICK there's no way it should be anywhere near the others, it should be in it's own quiet room well away from other cats. Some of her animals were in horrific condition. Tbh many of them would have been better off on the streets. Many places are moving to a spay/neuter and release program for feral cats - their outcomes are better when they're allowed to stay outdoors.
I totally agree. That woman is honestly nuts. I feel so bad for those poor cats.
You know, I'm not even convinced that she thinks she's right. It's obviously more about her ego and her having a sense of control than it is about helping the cats. The cats don't mean anything to her, they're just objects. I mean, she literally used one as a hand towel. It's so sad :(
The part where she wiped off the food on the cats was so disturbing to me. It just says so much. I mean, who would do that? She's very unhygienic and just crazy! The part where she trapped the cat and then said she could see in their eyes after she traps them that they know they were saved... I see a very terrified cat whose life is about to change for the worse. Those poor cats living in cramped conditions, it must smell just awful. It's just horrible life for them. She clearly can't even think of what it's like for them. She just wants to keep collecting more. It is very selfish indeed!

@@TheChickenRiceBowl Why is that funny to you? Her being abused as a child. At least she didn't turn school shooter or mall bomber! Yes, she could use some help rehoming some of her kitties, but that can be very traumatic to have to part with them, not knowing if they will be properly cared for, abandoned in the street when their human moves, be in a domestic situation where they will be abused, or surrendered to an overly full shelter to be murdered just because they are no longer wanted. That loss of control can send them into a downward spiral mentally, and just like as a child, they are mocked and ridiculed because they choose cats over humans. No one wants to step up and be their friend and confidante. I think any past 6 is getting into the realm of excessive, but if we judged less, and cared more, there would be more adoption centers, and fewer "cat ladies!"

The lady with 123 cats needs to have a catio outdoors (a protective enclosure) so they can’t escape or be hurt. At the same time, I do hope she is on social media or local networks making sure she hasn’t “rescued” someone’s pet. I have a cat rescue and believe in TNR and take care of up to a dozen or so at a time.
Hello Mimi
That is a very nice and inteligent idea.
Do you own a cat you self? If i may ask.
you'd be more crazy to not talk to your pets i'd say. over the 16 years i had a cat he became more and more likely to talk back in his language when i spoke to him lol, leading to deep conversations. mostly about food though.
@Grand Tickler ..oh don't forget about the gifts they bring e.g. mice and sometimes the neighbours socks.
@RetroSupporter93 hey of that 3 pound brain only 1 ounce is in use anyway :P
The lady with the dirty house was a little irritating, especially when she was super messy and wiped off her dirty hands on the cat's fur. Ew
I thought it was very disrespectful of her to soil her cats' fur wiping her cat food-smeared hands on them. That bothered me--for starters!
@@margaretwilkie3637 I thought the same thing, I would never do that to my cats, they don't even like it when I pet them with wet hands 😂
@@articrain4081 That makes me want to give my cat a bath. The last time I gave my cat a bath was on the midterms.
I have observed Cat obsessed people are usually very down to earth, honest, do not mask off their emotions, and enjoy their own company and most of them have had hard time adjusting with the pretentious society . This is why they might come across society as weird or out of the box. People do not appreciate those qualities. Sad in today's world that is why its hard to find a partner. And looking after cats give them a purpose , a comfort and knowing someone needs them. Its sad but sweet too.
if you don't do the same as everyone else in this society , as an individual should, considered crazy . Even if most are unhappy doing it. Unconscious living.
Having 100 cats wouldn't be the behavior result of a person that enjoys being in their own company
Very true!

The 4th lady AND her cats are living in filthy conditions. If the humane society made her get rid of her bed, that should tell you something.
theres a line between having multiple cats and animal hoarding.
I'd have to agree. Somebody may be a very clean person but the house starts to smell bad with 10 of any animal. (Yet alone 20 or 30.)
*internal screaming* Definitely
Absolutely right
Totally agree
1 is fine, 2 is multiple, and 3 or over is hoarding cats.
I understand the concern for taking care of these animals, but after getting too many of them it does more harm than it helps :( sad to see all those cats in cages
Putting cats in cages is a form of animal cruelty unless you're driving them to the vet or have them in the car for another reason.
Better safe and off the streets with no food and no medical attention or human interaction
Nooooo the woman with over 100 cats that just becomes abusive at that point because there is no way it is humane for over 100 cats to live in a single home. I doubt she can properly take care of all of them the way they need. They looked unkempt. This is an animal hoarding issue and illegal for her to own that many.

Very interesting and ambiguous documentary . It remains me our cat Grunya, who flew to the rainbow after almost twenty years of bright presence in our lives. I wish everyone to be happy! With or without cats
I think this show is being judgemental of these women. Having three cats and being excited about their antics... there’s nothing wrong with that!
The three of them look sad or/and without many friends. These women deserve more love.
But its not just about 3 cats. Its about having more than someone can handle and cats need their own space in a house
You're a nut. Go to your safe space
It’s a bit demanding for their day to day life... “oh hey, can you watch my 16 cats while I go away on a vacation/ get married/visit a friend?” I can imagine the litter boxes are consistently full...

When you have over a hundred cats it’s impossible to have strong connections with a single cat.
Especially if you're not home at least 99% of the time
Exactly!
Not to mention it's just gross, there's no way to keep that clean or stop infection from spreading
Right! I love the individual connections that I share with my two cats.
That’s true. I struggled with four strays especially as they didn’t get along. Two is much more manageable.
The realtor who plays the violin seems pretty cool to me. I like (what I perceive to be) her sense of humour... when she said "I'm not on medication... any more" I chuckled, and I found her likable, honest, and heartwarming. I wish her all of the best. I feel like she still has a chance to have the life she wishes she had.
Agree. She seems normal except for the 16 cats that she owns. Instead of reading Cosmopolitan, perhaps she could stop collecting cats (lol!).
@@julieerin115 lol I agree!
I think she has the life she wants (except for "conjugal visits"; maybe she could marry an incarcerated man).
@JexDahSnak Rose , well, at some point (number), you can't manage them. My two take up quite a bit of my time - and money - between PROPERLY feeding, watering, grooming, vetting, and loving on them. Four isn't excessive. 100, needless to say...
@Thelondonbadger k.
I feel much empathy for those womens. I wish them all the support, because besides the loneliness, they have to work a lot to feed and care. It’s so easy to call them crazy and turn around not helping.
The younger lady with 16 cats and a dog is the female lead in a romcom. Tell me I’m wrong.
shes sp beautiful !! and rational and honest. uhh what a woman *heart eyes heart eyes heart eyes*
Yes. She has such sadness and trauma and understanding in her eyes. She knows and has seen too much and you can see it in her eyes. She's probably extremely empathetic too. I hope she finds a lover.
She has mojor “the office” vibes! I like her!
The thing is... you're not wrong. You're absolutely right🤣
Even her face lol
