I said brother and meant husband. Lol. At least itll be a good laugh.
I don't have IG, so Happy Birthday!!!!!
Could you post a link for the watch please? Ta!
It’s my other half’s birthday today, also 🎉
I don't do Instagram either, so Happy Birthday Teca!🎂💐
The cat sensed something in you, and decided to adopt you. Nice to see someone taking such good care of their pet. Go well.
i've heard that you never truly choose a cat, a cat chooses you
@@anthonywoodward2027 Yes indeed
I completely agree
It warms my heart that you have a rescue cat. He obviously is equally in love with you! I'm happy for you!
🐈💙🐈💙🐈💙
The music, the drone footage, the lovely cat....everything was just perfect in this vlog :)
Q & A would be awesome!
Thank you Lilian, will do an interview at some point :)

Agreeded
I would love to hear you and your partner's love story! I love catching sight of her in the occasional vlog. :) To be honest, I was pretty sure you were talking about the cat from the thumbnail, but was happy to hear of Sparky's journeys and addition to the family home.
Happy Birthday to Tekka (how do you spell that? Sorry!) from Spanaway, WA, USA!
You were very close. It's spelled Teka.
@Jim Elliott It's how she spells it on her Instagram.
Love this. My late Dad being of Scottish heritage he loved his whiskey. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks Shaun! Sparky is a cutie! 😻 Love the drone footage! Wow! Beautiful Autumn colors! I loved that watch. I like a watch with a big face so I can see the time. Definitely unique and beautiful craftsmanship!
I'd love to see a video about how you met Teka, your beautiful wife! Stay safe! Love to you and your family 💕
Thank you Jaimie, i'll need to try and persuade her to do it first :) I will try
I just received a kitten; she’s a beast, turns out she’s half Maine Coon cat. The Drone footage is awesome!
I just loved the drone footage. I missed that. Also Sparky is too cute.😍
Thanks Mandy really glad you liked it
Cats, whisky, time. That sounds like a Burns poem. ❤️
My beautiful black Japanese Bobtail cat, "Big Bad Bendy" used to walk over a mile up the road in the remote valley I lived in, waiting for me to come home from work. He would wait for me, (and do some hunting, as often there were rat "heads" on my doorstep...) he would be standing in the road, I would let him in the car, & he would stand with 2 paws on the dash, 2 paws on the seat, meowing loudly the whole way home. P.s. the valley I lived in rarely had traffic, Bendy lived to be 21 yrs old.😊 Congrats on your lovely new kitty!
Thank you Erin. Bendy sounds like he was an amazing cat 😊
What a truly enjoyable video!
Sparky is a character with a great story!
Drone shots of Craigmillar Castle & surroundings, never get old!
And what a good-looking watch,
charming with a stunning personalized piece of history! All round win/win 💙
Thanks Shaun - love from Denmark 🌸 💕
Thank you so much, really glad you enjoyed this video :)
Understood.
Omg Sparky is an international treasure 🥰 we must protect him at all costs!
Also yes, i think i speak for many people, we would love to hear about whatever you and Teka feel comfortable sharing with us! She seems very interesting and intelligent. Happy Birthday to her! 🥳
Sparky is adorable. What a talkative love bug. 😻
Love Sparky! Love the drone shots of the tree tops! Love the watch! 🇨🇦
A love story, no matter whom it involves is a treasure. Would enjoy finding out how you two met! Take care and God Bless!
A Heartwarming love story of sorts indeed. Sparky may become the next UA-cam sensation! Give him his own channel!
Four cats and two dogs. All rescues or “can you foster for awhile?” My husband and I are foster failures 😊
I'm sad to hear, but you tried. There is a lot of of try tho, and a lot of 'try' is just acclimation. but It might not work out.
People like you and your hubby are what makes the world a joyful place. Thank you for having such love for animals.
I realize that some people are ok with animals but don't want pets. But, I grew up in a family where we always had a dog. Then when I moved out on my own I had a roommate that had 2 cats, whom I came to love as my own. Then I married a guy that had grown up with dogs and with parakeets. Over the years we, along with our three (now grown) kids have shared our home/lives with dogs, cats, gerbils, parakeets, canaries, a white mouse and an iguana. I now have 3 dogs and a cat. I cannot imagine a life without animals sharing it with me. I am so glad you and Sparky found each other! Take care.
We also were adopted by a female cat called Mia when she was only around 2 months old. We found her in a hole on a brick of our outbuilding. Since then she had 3 beautiful kittens that were adopted by my daughter-in-law and her aunt. She was to be spayed right when the lockdown started here in Ireland. Now she's spayed and getting a little bit fat lol.She's so friendly and loves our dog Stella.
I live in Kentucky and whiskey is a part of our heritage too. Jim Beam is made here. I wonder if they make anything with their reclaimed barrel wood?
My BIL needs this watch. He, his wife and his in-laws “ran away” to Scotland to tour a whisky distillery, take a class and then blend his own bottle for his 50th birthday. While *his* BIL is his birthday twin, my husband is his identical twin. He made up for ditching his twin brother on their 50th birthday by bringing him a special bottle of whisky.
Edit: Just forwarded the blog post to my SIL so she can find the watch for my BIL.
You have been adopted by a cat. He seems very sweet. I loved the drone footage looking straight down on the trees. Great shot. BTW we in the US use both fall and autumn interchangeably. That watch, WOW! Seeing the lovely whiskey made me remember I live near a distillery, time to give them some business. Oh and of course Happy Birthday Teka!
It’s good to hear that the original owners recognized Sparky’s unhappiness. They put his needs above theirs.
Awww that was a really beautiful story and a truly loved awesome cat , his other guardians loved him enough to let him go ,his happiness and safety was paramount to them and how sweet of you both to dig deeper to find his home and take him back . Loved the Scottish history watch and YES would indeed enjoy knowing about how you both hot together . You are obviously a bit of an historian. I find it so interesting . Not all the boring lies forced upon us in schools ( prison for children ) with black and white drawings but true history like this and you as a couple , your history is so much more colourful than ANYTHING they brain wash us with in the supposed educational system. Now THATS beautiful , you history 💛Thank you 🌻🐾🤗
These new vlogs, with your life in Scotland, are my absolute favorite.
I love all your videos, but this love letter to Scotland is everything.
It's wonderful.
A place I would love to travel to, but at this point in my life will be unlikely to go.
Sparky is beautiful. A beautiful face. He clearly loves you and he found you.
Just love how sweet your wife is and how she supports your work. Sparky is so cute. You are blessed to be loved by those two.
That cat is so cute!!! I also had a grey and white cat named Sparky when I was growing up. He was a rescue and a bit crazy, but I loved him. 😍 Loved the drone shots!! I even recognized the castle (craigmiller was the name I think...) From Outlander, my husband and I went there on our Scotland trip 2 years ago. If this pandemic will ever end I would love to visit Scotland again! But for now I'll have to enjoy Scotland through your videos. So please keep them coming!! 😘😘😘
I just saw your "Dallas Cowpeople vs. Detroit Frogs" video. I laughed so hard I started fearing my just healed up ribs would fracture agan! I haven"t laughed that hard in doggone near thirty years. I had to find the most recent video hoping that you would read this. I also would enjoy hearing about how you and your "better half" joined up. I really enjoy your videos and wish you well in your future explorations. I lived in Scotland for a wee bit about forty years ago and fell in love with it. Didn't just stay in one place either. From Fraserburogh on a westward line to the coast and back all around wherever there was a road. loved it!
Live 2 minutes from where you filmed. My favourite time of year too, the colours are incredible. Rain or not!
SPARKY!!! What a lover he is!!!! And the hair roller! Lol lol🤣 I’ve used them for years n years! Great invention for all of us critter lovers!
Yes! Tell us your love story! A video
With Q and A would be nice ...or whatever you guys are up too taping . Thank you!!!

PS loved the watch and story!!
Bye for now!!
Happy Birthday Teka!
It's great to see the affection in the home that Sparky brings. Of the family of five we were featuring in our videos 2 years back, we're now down to a single survivor, the one we call Fluffy. The life of a feral is harsh.
Thanks for keeping Sparky safe.
Cool Cat. Last time we lost a beloved pet (17 yrs old) We adopted a Brother & Sister Rescue...We love pets and have to help. Cooper and Allie are a real joy
Bless you for taking in Sparky. That brought joy to my heart. Kia Ora
I loved all the beautiful autumnal colours and the cat is a right cutie very playful and very verbal enjoy him.
Kentucky Bourbon, BOURBON.....Jim Beam...our Irish and Scottish drinking families in KENTUCKY...made it the barrels...FAMOUS!!
Oh my gosh, I love your little furry friendly! Aren't they the best?! Beautiful footage of Autumn in Scotland. Autumn is my favorite time of the year. My blessings to you and your family, Shaun. 🌷💜
It breaks my heart. That most young people your she in America can't tell time by this type of watch. You in schoolhere. They are only get a few days of study on a watch and that's it. But yes it is beautiful in craftsmanship and history. Love the story behind it. Yes I would love to hear from your wife and you about y'all story.
Live in Florida and we don't have the seasons change. Thanks for sharing the drone footage.
That spot just off Tweedsmuir Gait is one of my favourites for Droning. Great views on a clear day. Best kept secret a few years back.
Sparky looks so much like my first cat! He was white with black tabby patches. And he was super friendly too. Sparky certainly chose you!
Happy Birthday!! Love Sparky !!
Loved the opening of the blog and your new friend. Happy birthday Teka.
The drone shots were beautiful. Happy birthday to Teka! Congrats on being adopted by the Sparky.
Splendid drone footage of the autumnal colours. Sparky is a bonnie wee laddie, seems to have a lot of love for you guys.
That drone footage is incredible!
Great vlog Shaun, well done.
Blessings. What a great story.
I love that you've gone home, that you want to share Scotland's heritage with us, and maybe most of all, I love that you love your cats. (We have five cats, three dogs.) Sweet.
Hi Shaun! The cat has chosen YOU. That's how it goes sometimes.
That's a beautiful watch.
More than that, I think the drone footage was some of your best work yet.
Love Sparky!
I love hearing love stories.
Hi Shaun, I went to a whiskey 'con' (for lack of a better word) last year in Bremen, and while tasting we got to talking with one of the venders and he explained to us that most whiskey casks nowadays come from the U.S., because they only get used one time for Bourbon and then they get taken apart and reasembled to mature whisky in for up to three decades . . and so the wood of your watch is probably white oak from the States . . or France, but not quite so likely . . and it's been called a barrel once, so you do you! ;-) Slàinte mhat . . . .
Happy birthday, Teka!
I love it that you're back in Edinburgh and look forward to more about Scotland!
Happy Birthday Teka!!! Hope you had a perfect day!!
Love the video’s music and sweet story of how Sparky came into your lives! 🐱
Happy birthday Teka! Sparky is soooooo cute it is a very nice to see him so happy and playful. It is a driech day today and I'm happy to be inside. Loving the watch by the way such a great way of recycling something. Stay safe lotsa love to both of you xx
What a beautiful kitty! Show is more about him living with you! And, Happy Birthday, Teka!
Love your videos, I'm learning more about my Scottish ancestors, Fergusons, who settled in Oklahoma.
Their sense of humor was definitely passed down in our family!
Loved the story of Sparky, what a cool 🐈 😻
Y'all are truly blessed
I love the direction you’ve taken your flog !
PLEASE tell us your love story, I think I speak for all of us here watching your channel!💙💙💙
Super cool watch! ✌
Love the vlogs! I've been following you for a number of years! Sparky looks like a great cat! That is one of the coolest watches that I have ever seen!
Nice video. Happy Birthday 🎂to your wife ! Glad you were adopted by a really great cat!
I loved every part of this video. Well done
Me too...☺️
Excellent video! Thoroughly enjoyable, Shaun! :D
Beautiful watch!!!
That's a great addition to the family. What a great product that is. I'll need to check them out. There must be thousands of wee Scottish businesses like that that make brilliant products. Can't wait to see more. Great video mate! :)
Congratulations on being adopted into the service of Sparky!
I LOVE that watch!😍
Beautiful watch and cool story as well
Your videography is wonderful. I enjoy the footage you show us.
Lovely video love the watch .
As much as I love your reactions to my country, thus content is amazing and makes me want to visit all the more.
Scotland is beautiful! I can’t wait to visit.
That is such a cute cat!! Love the new style of your videos btw 😃🧡
What a sweet video! I thought, however that you were going to talk about you and your better half. You knew that! Sparky is a very affectionate cat.
Loved the drone shots and the watch. Thanks for sharing!
What a great video, & Awwww sparky is so adorable 🖤
Love the watch and the Gaelic name.
Love this video. So sweet, the Sparky story; and loved the watch also! How original. And yes! Absolutely would love to hear the story of you and your wife and how u met. A true love story always warms the heart. So enjoy your videos Shaun. Am hoping a return visit to beautiful Scotland. Blessings to you and Teka from CT, USA, and a happy birthday to her also! 💝
Wonderful video! Yes, I want to know the love story between Teka and you. Sparky is the cutest kitty and Fiodh makes a very cool watch.
You're melting my heart with this one Shaun. Brilliant!!!!! That Sparky is a total cutie pie. And of course we/I would be interested in Q&A. Just can't say enough how I love that you are back home. - Oh ... HAPPY BIRTHDAY TEKA!!!
Hi from Wyoming, USA! Great video, Shaun! Love the scenery, music, Sparky, and the whisky watch. You do a great job with what you share. I always find your videos relaxing and educational. Keep sharing.
That watch is gorgeous!
Love that watch, so clever and Sparky seems like he was meant to be with your family!!!
Both of my "daughters" my dog and my cat chose me and my property.
I LOVED THIS EPISODE!!!!! Shaun you are so engaging and pure Scot. When I was in Edinburg the people were the most LOVELY people...KIND HELPFUL LOVELY!!! The video was so beautiful just reminded me of the Scottish Countryside EXTREMELY Excited you did the story of the whiskey 🥃 LOVE that you are doing what you LOVE and what is INTERESTING to you. Hope you keep doing “Outlander” Stories as you add so much. Yes definitely wanna hear your personal LOVE story...And anyone who LOVES animals ♥️💓♥️🐾I am all DOGS as me and my dog Roxy are allergic to cats😱 Gonna watch your post about our election over here across the pond. TAKE CARE AND SAFE YOU ROCK!!!
Happy man! Loved the drone footage. Sparky is gorgeous and what eyes! So Shaun, tell us about your love life...
Brilliant video, Shaun! I loved everything about it. ❤️ As a huge animal lover myself, I loved the story of Sparkey...he’s adorable! Also fascinated about the watch and LOVED the video and music...the fall foliage is beautiful. You hit a homerun with this one, Shaun. And yes, please do share how you and your wife met...I’m a sucker for a good love story. 😁❤️
Sparky is a sweetheart. I’m a cat lover too. He knew good people when he saw you. Hope you have many many years with him. And by the way that watch is beautiful. 😎
The cat is gorgeous! He definitely loves you 💕 There's a fabulous saying which is absolutely true...cats don't have owners, they have staff 😊
What a sweet love story. Sparky is beautiful and it's obvious that he's very happy with his new family and home.
Everyone loves a love story. I'm sure there are many of us that have wondered how a boy from Scotland and a beauty from Brazil, met, fell in love and married.
The drone footage was spectacular! I love seeing the beautiful colors of the changing leaves. Reminded me of home (Wisconsin).
Thank you Shaun.
Loved the Sparky story 💖✨💖 definitely tell us bout you and Tekka, who doesn’t love a love-story?! 💞💞💞💐
Welcome Sparky!! Can't wait to see how many mice you bring home to Mom and Dad 😊
Awesome watch. Love the story of it. The cat is great too.
Happy Birthday to you Tika. ♥️♥️
Love the Sparky story. He’s beautiful and obviously loves you‼️
Really good video Shaun! Love meeting Sparky; it's obvious he adores you. So beautiful and full of personality. Also love the story of the watch. Thanks for educating us.
Oh, now, I thought the love story would be you and Scotland. And in a wee bit of a way, it is. Your sweet new cat is lovely, though. And the leaves, the drone, and the music....heavenly. Thanks, Shaun. Keep on keeping on. 😊
Shaun...that just goes to show you, some things are meant to be. Sparky absolutely loves and adores you...BIG TIME. I have 2 fabulous felines of my own--and cats have their own special way of choosing YOU.
Thanks for the beautiful footage of the autumn leaves. One of my cats is just like yours, not in looks but in temperament. She head butts me daily whenever I lie down to sleep. She also loves to knead the skin at the base of my neck. We call it “making biscuits”.
Sparky knew he was to be with you! He is gorgeous! The story behind the watch is fascinating and what a novel idea!
