Todd's Reaction When He Sees Glamour Is Priceless
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 жов 2023
- Todd woke up a little grumpy and demanding and that all changed when Glamour woke up and jumped down to the floor where Todd could see her.
Todd is a 6-year-old neutered male cat at the time of this video. Todd and his dad have been learning to communicate with each other since May of 2022 with the help of recordable buttons. We aim to let Todd express himself and tell me his wants and needs. Currently, Todd has 45 words on his soundboard. This channel is dedicated to Todd learning to “talk”. If you would like to see more of Todd and his day-to-day life please visit his Facebook page.

I just died laughing at "mousey mousey mousey mousey." Todd is a character! So adorable.
He is. He is the best boy
Todd, like every living human, animal, or creature, is allowed to have a bit of a grumpy 😠 😡 day. Todd doesn't stay grumpy for long. ❤❤Todd. Todd loves ❤️ Glamour. She seems to cheer him up. 😊
I know, it was so sweet.
I’m afraid that if Todd were my cat, he would be spoiled rotten because I would never say no to him.😊
I try to say yes whenever I can.
Same
Same,they're only with us for a little while
If my cat had this speaking board I would have to obey his every comand😭🙈🙊
I hope Glamour one day reciprocates Todd's love for her!
I would love that too but I don't think it will happen. I'm pretty sure Glamour wants to be an only cat.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks Lol i have 5 male cats & 2 female. My female cats are dismissive, they prefer the humans over the other cats.
Todd cycling through the toys until he gets one is hilarious
😁
It’s ok bud, we all have our grumpy mornings until we see our favorite thing or person. ❤
He's got the cutest little white pantsloons 2:47
He does 😊
I laughed out loud at the repeated “mousey” presses! So funny. That’s exactly why I don’t do the buttons with my cats- I would get hundreds of presses for food, toys, or mad! I’m trying to focus on learning to communicate without the buttons (and these channels (including Billi) really help)! Todd is pretty cute, thanks for sharing him with us!!
Yes, you can absolutely communicate with your cat without the buttons. They are just an aid. Before the buttons, I knew when Todd wanted to play but not with what, I knew when he wanted affection but didn't know if it was pets, cuddles, belly rubs, or brushes. Etc. Todd still communicates with me that way when he is away from the buttons and with them.
He’s like, mousey in the puzzle box doesn’t count as official mousey time! My routine must be completed!
😁
Cats are just as we cat lovers knew they were, I love the way he told you he was mad when you came back upstairs. 😂
😊
Dad, mousey, mousey, mousey, sounds like Todd is bored. Sounds like something every child has ever said… 😂 I am glad Todd has Glamour.
😁
The mousey tantrum was priceless! 😂
I think Todd really loves Glamour. That makes me happy too.
I know he loves her. He loves to watch her and be near her.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks Why couldn't Todd have mousy again?
I think Todd thought the food puzzle was an extra treat, not a substitute for the Mousey. Maybe that’s why he insisted on getting it. 😼
Possibly, but he knows it's one or the other. I think he was a little irritable that morning.
I wish everyone could communicate with their pets this way. It certainly makes a difference in how you view some of their moods. Thank you so much for sharing this.
You are welcome 😊
I love how much Todd loves Glamour, even though she seems pretty indifferent to him. I ADORED the video where she swatted him awake for sleeping in her basket.
Yes, you must not even dare to gaze upon her basket or risk swift wrath. Lol.
“No. Sleep.Ouch.”😄 I was like poor guy, but what did he expect? 😂😂
@iramadanceandmusic1098 he knows you are not even allowed to gaze upon her basket, let alone enter it. Lol
Aww I just found this channel and want to see it too! 😃 They are both adorable! And the dynamic reminds me so much of my cats, before the old lady passed. 😢 Now the youngster is alone, and we have both grieved for the old lady a lot...he adored her so much too, like Todd with Glamour. Todd happy happy happy happy Glamour! 😻🥰❣️
How did Glamour get her name? It’s so cute! 🐈⬛
Glamour, Paulie, and Todd were the names they had at the shelter, and we kept them.
Glamour sounds like the perfect name for a cat like her. Todd fits perfectly too, Todd really is a Todd. Paulie is a cute name too. Happy to hear they are rescues.
@@teijaflink2226 Yes, all rescues, all from the same shelter I also support, and all are named very well. Although I think Glamour should have been Diva. Lol
I don't think cat's understand grammar (like word order) the same way we do. They seem to keep shuffling word order. But I love watching people try.
Yes, they talk more like Yoda, but all the words are there and correct for their thought.
In many human languages yhou do not use the personal pronomen ("I") when speaking. So Todd could easily mean "I am happy" when pressing "Happy". Also, the selevtion of buttons does not really allow for more elaborated grammar, so Todd has to combine what is there to get a meaningfull sentence. Thus the dialogue: "Mad" "Why are you mad?" "JingleBell" - there is no obvious way Todd could tell you that he was mad of a situation before where he asked for JingleBells and didn't get them. My thoughts...
I've seen Billy just hit whatever's closest first too often.
Of course they do have the grammar of repeating the thing a lot if they really mean it.
It's funny to hear humans imitating the way the cats use the buttons to keep ideas expressed simply : )
You have to speak in the words they know or they might not understand what you are saying.
Aww... Todd sure loves Glamour! And it's okay to be a little grumpy sometimes. It happens to the best of us. I love seeing Todd brighten up when Glamour is around.
I know, it is so sweet.
4:04 "Better make myself look good before I initiate the interaction."
😄
No wounder Todd was grumpy Glamor ower diva was not up yet🤣
😄
Oh, my gosh - happy, happy, happy! So cute!! Does Glamour care about Todd at all?
Unfortunately, Glamour's dream is to be a only cat. Todd adores her so much.
I love the silence after the multiple “happy” presses, like, “Sir… that is too many words right now…”
😊
Just seeing your love makes you happy? That is true love. Happens seldom enough in us humans. Todd having that reaction is spectacular...
I agree
Every time Todd asks for Jingle BallI I get a little stab of fear in my heart. I hope a replica can be found. 🙂
You and me both!
It's hearthwarming to see how much Todd loves Glamour 🥰🥰🥰
He does, he really adores her.
Oh you cutie, Todd. We enjoy you and your unrequited crush on Glamour.
Thank you 😊
Awww, poor little guy. Was having an off morning but Glamour made it all better 😍I guess even sweet Todd gets grumpy sometimes.
He was ☹️
Glamour made Todd happy!
Yes, he usually says he's happy when he sees her, but it is unusual for him to say it that many times. She must have cheered him up.
Perhaps because he was in a bit of a bad mood earlier it made him extra happy to see her or that he wanted to show that he's feeling better now.
When Food Is Love, lol. He feels like snacking because his main lady's not around.
😄
Thank goodness you don't have a cuss word button 😹
Even when he's mad I don't see Todd cussing. Lol.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks ❤️
I saw Todd look towards his mad button after he pushed the mousey button many times, hahaha. He is so cute, I just love seeing what and how Todd thinks.its just soo cool seeing him express himself like this. Have a great day
Thank you, yes he was definitely grouchy that morning.
Aww. Todd loves Glamour so much!
He does 😊
I totally lost it laughing when he was yelling mousey at you 😂😂😂😂
Yeah, I started snickering, too. I try not to laugh at him because I know it can hurt his feelings.
Todd trying to get extra kibble on a technicality 😅 It always makes me laugh when Todd presses a button multiple times to try to get his way…. or asks for several things when he gets told “later” to see if he can get something else instead.
A quick play with Jingle Ball and a Glamour sighting and all is right with the world again!
😊
He has got the best personality! I wish you would be nice to Pauly!😅
He's not chasing him anymore, so we are making progress.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks I think he’s trying for you. ❤ It seems like right after that time that you told him that Paulie was a nice kitty and that he would be his friend If he were nice to him, Todd has been trying to be friendlier to him. In The videos after that one I could clearly see him restraining himself to not chase Paulie and to try to be nice to him.
@iramadanceandmusic1098 I was also working with uom behind the scenes as well. I would give the two of them a squeeze up treat and they would have to share it nicely to get it. That reinforced the notion he has to at least tolerate him if not be nice.
To Todd’s Dad: sign up Todd to America got Talent, Britains got Talent . Just amazed at his intelligence! Wish my dog showed some😂
😄
Todd knows what he wants. How dare you say 'No"?😁
Lol. I try to say yes whenever I can.
He’s putting you to task..just like humans our four legged friends can b ina bad mood at times
Yes, we are all grouchy at times
The love of Todd to Glamour is priceless
It is, he adores her
I lost it at "Mad" 😆😆😆😆
😊
Todd:-Look Dad Puzzle-Box is not the same as Mousey.
😄
Poor Todd was mad. Looks like he got bit shocked first with your chance in tone but still like the cat he is he still had to press mousey after it but then was okay with ambush toy. Great seeing Glamour made him happy again. My heart just melt how he likes Glamour, just seeing her beauty makes him in a better mood.
Yes, he adores Glamour
Love you Glamour and Todd .🥰
Aww, thank you
I like that, "Oh, no you didn't" stare.
😄
He's so funny 😹 His dear unrequited love, Glamour, brightens his whole day 😻
She does and even more if she acknowledges him.
Jingle ball update: The Jingle Ball makers tried to fool us - I found a Blue/Pink Jingle Ball but it was a clear (polycarbonate?) plastic vs. the milky look (polyethylene?) type TRUE Jingle Ball. We will continue the search Todd. We have not given up.
Todd and I appreciate your efforts
I looked around on eBay and Amazon for a jingle ball also.
@sarahpfeuffer1396 thank you so much, I really appreciate it
I can’t help laughing. Very insistant
He can be. I call that when he is being a Todd-ler
Happy happy happy happy to see Todd happy❤😅
😊
He should have the word Now on his buttons. Jingle ball, now!
He has Now
Dont be mad Todd dad helping you.
Thank you 😊
Ok.
He little grumpy 😊
Yes a little bit. We all have those days.
Awwwww
Thank you 😊
Todd is such a sweet boy! 😻
Thank you 😊
Look how gently he pushes the buttons, maybe his joints ache? Amazing little guy, thanks for posting. We give our older guys bone broth & glucosamine condroitin capsules that we open & sprinkle on their food. It makes a huge difference.
Todd is not old, he is just a sweet gentleman
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks we had an adopted puppy with joint problems. The vet put her on medication so she could walk without a limp. We gave her condroitin msm supplement & bone broth & now she doesn’t need medication even tho she’s old now. Age is not always the reason for joint pain that can cause grouchiness. We enjoy your videos very much & we all love Todd & his button requests.
Thank you for showing us that animals can use the buttons it’s so amazing.
My Maisy looks like Todd’s twin. If I gave her buttons I’d only hear “food”, “mad” and maybe occasionally “snuggle”.
She may surprise you. 😊
Todd Happy, Glamour Happy, I’m Happy!❤❤❤
😊
Todd is gorgeous and definitely communicates with you. I am amazed and in love with Todd.
Aww, thank you 😊
I like how carefully walks to avoid the buttons, except for the ones he hits deliberately.
😊
Beautiful animals!!
After watching it again, I wanna say He was telling you Glamour was happy & he was mad .
Possibly
Give me my damned mousey already😡
OOH pretty lady😍😍
😄
Very entertaining video. Made me laugh and I find myself wrapped up in Todd's story. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Todd is such a handsome tuxedo cat 😺
Thank you
Their his toys, give them to him. You got problems man. 😮😢❤
The mousey dispenses his prescription cat food and he gets it twice a day. his intake is monitored for his health. He takes the Jingle Ball downstairs and roll it on the hardwood floor and against the doors. IT is very loud on my wife was sleeping. He has to wait until she wakes up
OMG! You give that poor love sick cat anything he wants!😢
I try to say yes to him whenever I can
Oh my goodness! He’s so freaking cute. I’d give him the Mousie!!!
Unfortunately the mousey gets filled with his food. He's asking me to fill it , he gets it as a treat in addition to his meal twice a day. If he got it anymore he would be over eating.
So cool to see their little gears turning.
😊
I just watched a sad video and came here knowing Todd would make me smile. He never disappoints
Aww, I'm so glad Todd can cheer you up! I'm glad you here!
Todd just having an off day. Such a sweet boy
Yes, we all have them.
That's so sweet.... Todd was soooooo happy to see Glamour!
He was, he really adores her.
It looked like Todd was having 'one of those days' when he staggered twice while going to the buttons he wanted. I know you said his infection throws his balance off so I'm not too concerned yet.
No, that is within his "normal" and may be why he was not in a great mood.
Just a happy tuxedo guy. Sure makes me happy. 😃
Jingle ball seems to have changed the mad mood. 😇
That and/or seeing Glamour. He adores her.
Yes there is much to communicate without buttons but agree they are a helpful for understand the what they want. What is maybe not obvious is that the words must all be modeled and owners must look for their response. A pause for thinking then a behavior expressing it. That pause is absolutely necessary with or without buttons and then to look for a response action to give you the hint on what they want. Want pets? Lean into my hand… etc.I have six cats but only one that uses buttons so the same methods are for all of them. Those queues absolutely changed everything!
I agree
❤❤❤❤❤
Give him the toy!
My wife was sleeping, and i got up at 5am. to spend time with them before work. He takes the Jingle Ball downs stairs on the hardwood and crashes it into the bedroom door. He has to wait until she is up. The mousey dispenses his prescription cat food, which he gets in the morning and evening. He had his morning allotment and had to wait for his dinner.
I love tuxedo cats, and he is so sweet and pretty that I don't know how you resist tucking him under your arm and walking around with him all day like a child with their favorite stuffed toy. Except . . . he might not like that so much. 😆 I have noticed that some of the animals just like to state the obvious (just like all of the rest of us 🙂), and Todd was likely saying Glamour's name simply because she showed up. Well, I think she showed up, hard to tell from my chair here at home. 🙃
I was thinking more about those Orbs of Sadness. Cats love tuna, and tuna makes everything stink. Seal an OOS in a ziplock with some tuna, then see if Todd will play with it. If he does, then there is hope for the other rejected orbs. If not, it truly may be a color thing - and the quest will continue . . . 🕵♀
Not a bad idea, I'll try it.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks Crud. I just posted several links to eBay with some bell balls in a new comment for you, but they were just removed. I don't know if UA-cam did it, or someone complained that it was spam because I included links to eBay. Very frustrating because I think I found the ball that Todd likes, but if not, then a few alternatives that didn't have white.
Hopefully, if I don't copy over the link, I won't be removed for saying the word eBay and giving the title "Cat Play Balls with Bells. Comes In A 2 Pack By Tiny’s. Brand New In The Package" Fingers crossed this doesn't get removed!
@@CarolinaCarolina-ph9mx Yes, know the ones you are talking about. These balls are bigger and have a smaller ball with a bell inside of it. I'm not sure if Todd will like it but I might give it a try. Thank you for finding it, I appreciate everyone's help.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks Todd is a fluffy fella with very refined tastes it seems, and little but the One And Only will do for him. If this backup attempt doesn't work, maybe take a close photo of it with ruler to show its size, plus a clear image of the bell inside, and any manufacturer marks on it, and then put on UA-cam under a Post. Maybe label it 'Wanted.' Not a video or a short, though you can do that as well, but Posts can be just images or comments without video, and it could be referenced easily for anyone checking to see if they found it. I don't put anything up so don't know exactly how to do this, but it seems Posts appear under the Community tab. I just checked yours, and nothing is there, so it could be a new trick for you. Todd is keeping his human actively engaged, too.😄
Todd is enjoyable to watch❤both of them are.....
Thank you
Def decided! 👍🏻🥰😁🦊
😊
Cat: gib thing.
Human: no.
Cat: **plotting human's demise**
Pretty smart cat here…😻
Thank you 😊
Todd is in profile when he repeats mousey several times but I would not want to be on the receiving end of the expression I can see out of his profile when you tell him no. He was not best pleased that you wouldn't give him another mousey! Around our place we call that look "getting the stink eye."
😁
Wow he is so intelligent!
Just give him the freaking mousey!
The mousey is sitting on the floor close to him. It gets filled with prescription food. He is asking for it to be filled. This is a treat given twice a day in addition to his meal. He can't have it as often as he wants or he would over eat.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks thanks for explaining! I thought about trying to edit my comment after I posted it to add a smiley showing I was mostly being tongue in cheek. I was watching it thinking "this cat is amazingly communicating to the hooman, but the hooman won't do the thing!" and I felt his want lol
Sweet
Thank you
Is this guy really understanding all this? It must ve taken a long time to train...amazing if a cat can do this.
Todd learns very quickly, he is at 56 words in just 2 years of buttons.
Awww 😢 please just give him his mousey , he's sad 😔
The mousey is a food dispensing toy designed to slow his eating. He eats prescription food and the amount is monitored. He already had what he was allowed at that time.
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks awh ok, I've just started watching your videos the other day, I'm a cat parent with my husband and we love cat babies, they're lovely to watch, Todd is so clever 😊
This reminds me of people who put a treat on a dog's nose and make the dog wait for permission to eat it.
How so? The Mousey is a food treat and his food intake is monitored. He gets the treat mousey once in the morning and once in the evening. He had requested and received his morning mousey so how is telling him he has had it and can have again in the evening equivalent to placing food on his nose and making him wait?
❤
Thank you
Amazing ❤❤❤
Thank you 😊
He really wanted that mousey lol.
Yes, he's a little stubborn when he's grouchy
I'm watching this with my kitten. 😅
And what is the new little viewers name? 🙂
And what is the new little viewers name?
@@TheChroniclesofToddToddTalks Her name is Artemis. She'll watch the most random things with me, sometimes paws at the screen or tries to eat my phone.
Jingle ball LATER????😮😂
😄
I could watch this all day how do they learn all those buttons?
Thank you! It is all modeling. I press the button then show and explain the word to him. I repeat until the connection between the word and the button is made. This is over simplified of course but you get the idea.
So cute!
Thank you
Todd is awesome !!!!
Thank you
Thank you.
You're welcome!
I had to subscribe 🎉 I’m allergic to cats but I love you guys! First video; One and Done ❤
Welcome, I'm glad you are here!
He did ask for jingle ball earlier and you said no. He asked again and you said no. So he was mad.
Then you say later all Todd had to do is ask, not get mad.
Todd makes more sense than you! 😊
5:20 I think it might just have been a simple "Good Morning". 🙂 Which is not that simple considering people use that phrase now knowing what it really means.
It is not a question as in "Was/is your Morning good?", it is not a statement "this is a good Morning for everyone" because you can't know that. It is a wish, that you have/had a good morning, but it could work as a question as well depending on circumstances.
Or Todd was happy now, and mad before because he just did not have a good morning for whatever reason.
That is certainly possible
