HELLO AXOLOTS or should I say catxalots (that does not work at all I am so sleep deprived)
welcome to today's adventure with Faline San: cat edition. Now I have. plenty of videos with my dog in them but I barely mention cats, thus the lore is now revealed on why: they kinda scare. me and also I worry they don't like me and I have. the sensitivity of a piece of paper
Will I overcome this fear ? Watch and find out in this episode of #entertainment in TAIWAN

The black, orange and white cats (like at 11:50 ) was likely female! Most calico (the color) cats are female! Rarely will a calico be male and will often be infertile if it is a male. Also! Professional owner of cats and speaker for cat body language. All these cats Loved you, not a single one was scared of you or threatened, they all appreciated your existence. Even when they would leave and ignore you, that's actually a cat thing called Parallel Play! This is a bonding experience where they are saying "I trust you to watch my back while I am in your space, and I am enjoying you being here with me!" Also, the ending is so true, because my cat can do a high five trick. She also know uppies (stand on her hind legs), sit, circle (walks in a little circle), and come here all on command.
Yep! Torties are also insanely rare among males, if there’s one it’s like OP
yeah cats can do trick as much as dogs can...but they are too lazy to do it,they clearly understand what you want them to do but wouldn't do it anyway...not even for a snack unless they are less prideful or they enjoy doing trick by themselves...
@@tonuahmed4227 Yeah my baby girl is less prideful and will do tricks on command, while excepting a treat. She doesn’t do paw shake yet as she doesn’t like me touching her paws much so I’m cutting that out of the routine tricks
Cats are “harder” to train because of how they like to be left alone most of the time. Though some cats will want attention and might actually have fun training. And yes, most Calicos and Tortoiseshells are female. Cats carry their colour genes on their X chromosome, which females have two of, while the male tortoiseshells have one X, plus a Y.
The opposite of this would be a fully orange cat. Almost every orange cat is male.
You've got a natural instinct for communicating with cats considering your fear of them. "Give them space" is a pretty good rule of thumb for all animals, wild or otherwise... and a good rule for most people as well, come to think of it.
Faline went from turning himself into a catboy to being in the presence of a cat

Fun fact from a long-time cat person, when a cat looks at you with squinted eyes and blinks slowly, it means they feel safe with you 😊
True that! I blink back at them as I read that blinking means that they are showing their affection.
This is true. In fact, any lack of eye contact is a show of trust from a cat. When they are staring, it means they are on alert.
also when they turn away
Everyone knows this already
Heya Pan! Love love love the pfp!
10:00 A cat not looking at you it means it trusts you (or doesn't perceive you as a threat). A more explicite gesture to show trust is the slow blink.
I'm a cat person and your interpretations of cats are so fun xD "20 existential crisis at the same time" purrfect X'DDD
Since Faline has officially joined us cat lovers here are some cool cat facts: •Cats can jump up to 6 times their length •Cats have an extra organ that allows them to taste scents on the air, which is why your cat stares at you with their mouth open from time to time •Some cats are ambidextrous, but 40 percent are either left- or right-pawed •Cats typically sleep for 12-16 hours a day •Meowing is a behavior that cats developed exclusively to communicate with people •Cats are able to rotate their supple spines more than many other animals and can twist their bodies to a much greater extent •Cats can recognize your voice. So yes, they are just ignoring you •Cats can move both ears separately and about 180 degrees around •Research has shown that the low-frequency vibrations produced by a cat's purring can have therapeutic benefits for the cat and its owner
On a note regarding the "ignoring you" comment, they actually generally acknowledge being called in different ways than people and dogs. Cats don't like eye contact but they will often twitch their ears or do something else without looking at you.
Another fact: cats are liquid
Additional fun fact: Cats don't have owners but merely a human slaves ready to do whatever to please their master
Bruh, as many time as I have to get after my cat about something and the phase “lil girl! I can see your ears pointing at me I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME😅” Also didn’t know that animals can be left/right…pawed. Makes sense but still…

out of all the animals, I never expected faline to be afraid of cats
I know right! I've never heard of people being scared of cats before
I don't think being scared of cats isn't normal as I'm scared of squirrels ╮(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)╭
@@treebit It's common for me, the best part is cats roam freely literally everywhere here so you'd think people who are afraid of cats would go extinct by now but guess not. I'd see the occasional jump getting spooked by a cat, they always walk to the person scared of them.
I have Cynophobia and I've heard many people who are scared of Cats before, don't judge people with the animal they're scared of
@@CherryTheCat I don't think this is a matter of judging, it's just that some irrational fears can still be explained through logic and some not so much. dogs are objectively more dangerous to humans as they kill dozens of people annually in the US alone and googling the same information about cats would leave you with nothing. it's just that this fear seems mostly irrational unlike some of the most common animal fears that people have
At the end “but can a cat do this? Abbie high five!” Made me wanna link one of Jun and Rachel’s videos with their cats that are so well trained 😂 yes they can give paw and high five lol
I love Rachel and Jun! And their cats of course
The ending took me out 😂 "eeeexactly"
I'm not a cat expert, but I think the best way to introduce yourself to a cat is to approach it calmly and then just stay a few feet away and hold your hand towards it with one finger sticking out. Cats greet each other with their nose (I've heard) and if it's interested, it will approach you and touch for finger with it's nose and smell you, just like a dog. That way the cat can decide and will not tear you to shreds immediately
Fun fact! “Stinky” is actually likely female! Black and orange coloring are tied to X chromosomes, so in order to have black *and* orange they have to have two, making them a girl :D
Also there is a rare chance for a calico to be a male, but male calicos are all sterile
Calicos (the white orange black cats) are mostly females because of this. Male calicos are really rare and apparently really expensive to acquire.
You can get male calicos, but they’re really rare and have health conditions
Mhm! Thats why I said “likely” but reading it now I wasn’t that clear 😅
@Saya-ng1sl Aw man I really wanted to have a little calico couple and they could have a calico baby and I would give them a special home it is in black white and orange
Don’t worry Fal, I volunteered at a shelter, specifically in the cat section for 2 years, and I’m still mildly terrified.

As someone with 9 cats, I'm still afraid of some of them, because you don't know their next move if they will scratch you or if they wanna murder you in your sleep
One of the difference between dogs and cats is that we received a dog's respect easily, but we need to earn a cat's respect for it to be comfortable with you. Once we earned it, it's as meaningful as ever
You have an amazing way with words, I giggled many times. The fact that English isnt your first language but you're obviously very skilled with it is so impressive to me as an uncultured American. I don't think I could make a vlog funny for this long using my native language😭
English is not my first language however I noticed that, too.
I agree, but I also think sometimes it’s because English is not her 1st language. The way she talks give me Chinese (I mean the language) humour vibe 😂
In his old videos he said he used to read alot of wattpad so that also the case

I can definitely understand why people fear cats considering they come across as unpredictable if you don’t know how to read their body language, especially since the way dogs communicate is pretty universally known - but once you understand the quirks of cats, like their tail movement, ear movement, posing and blinking theyre such cool animals to hang around
It's really entertaining that you casually review each cat you pass by LOL
I like how he treats the cats like a business transaction 😂
as a cat owner, i guarantee the cats also view it as a business transaction. when my cat is hungry she lets me know by letting me pet her more than usual lol

@@gristen WE serve them loyally and obey their every command, and in return they repay us with... varying amounts of love and cuddles, depending on the cat.

“Cats have an aura of intimidation and sophistication” Yeah, sounds about right- but I’m glad you went out of your way to meet cats and get over your fear!! I love cats and dogs so this video is so great
I look over and see my cat lying like his bones are all broken across a pile of notebooks that are WAY too small for his body. His legs are all awkward and his back leg is stuck out at a weird angle, lol.
True lolll
Aww Stinky felt so safe with you he started a love-bite game ❤ It's understandable for someone with catphobia to be scared of his bite, but don't worry, even if you leave your finger in his scary looking jaw, Stinky wouldn't bite till you bleed. He just wanna play ❤ But as for baby kittens, they tend to bite and scratch hard either because they're still feel unsafe or they don't know how to control their strength. Well, I'm one of their victims. But once they reached teen mid size, they learn to play soft. Their fangs and claws will stop hurting too. They learn to love body massage which is a bonus. Sometimes, when they're content, they'll even allow you to touch their most fluffy part, the tummy ✨ PS But careful with cats with growling or yowling noise, body bent with tails stretch up. That's mean they'll really scratch you cus they're angry.
This just randomly showed up on KZhead but as I’m a cat person I thought it might be interesting. OMG you are hilarious! I have no idea what kind of videos you usually do but I’ve subscribed anyway 😄
cats are not built to be fat, it gives them joint pain and makes them lethargic, but also all of these cats are perfect specimens and I would die for them.
I used to be scared of cats but I realized some of cats are really calm if you don't act like a threat to them. They are amazing comfort pets as well!
I find that cats are rarely threatening if you treat them with respect and care
Most cats only really scratch and bite if you treat them like sh*t (as in if you don’t respect their personal space by grabbing/petting them when they do not want to or in an area they do not want to; they also cannot see things the same way we can when it comes to colors and their eye sight). People who prefer dogs and hates cats often mistakenly treat cats how they treat dogs which is a recipe for disaster lmao
@@aiiiia9971 and irrationally agressive cats usually act like this because they have other issues, either hurt, hormonal inbalance or dementia
It just comes down to understanding their behaviors and accommodating yours to that. They will set boundaries, you just have to learn what that looks like, before it looks like attacking.
Cats are a predator-prey animal, meaning they kill some animals but they're also routinely in danger. On the other hand dogs are strictly predators, as they are not a regular food source for any animals. This is the reason why the behavior is so different and cats are often seen as very skittish or unpredictable compared to dogs, there is a builty in duality to their nature.
This reminds me of my experience of overcoming fear of dogs. When i was around 7 years old, i was playing with my brother and extended family member (i don't really remember them) outside, and then i saw this small dog just chilling there. I (like a dumba** child) went over and wanted to pet the dog. and what ya know it, i got bitten by the dog. Luckily, it wasn't a serious injury, but it did left me with a physical and emotional scars. By emotional i mean i've been afraid of them for years, until in like 2017/18, i had a meet up with a old lady for my math problems, and what ya know, she has a dog (specifically a black poodle). Of course i was pretty anxious for her to get close to me, let alone me touching her, but it took me surprisingly short amount of time to overcome the fear. And now im a complete dog/animal lover and watching this video is really relatable to me (even if our fears are both somewhat similar, but at the same time completely different lol). Great video! ☺👍
Dude, I laughed so hard. Your commentary and editing is amazing 👍🏼
I always thought faline would be a cat person

same cats are adorable
Same lmao
I just found your channel and this video made me smile when I was feeling down. Subscribed! :)
This was such a wholesome and funny video!! I loved it tysm! The cats are very cute and your grandma meowing at them is so precious😭
As someone who's studied cats I must say, cats all have very seperate personalitys, every cat has a different mind set, a lot of people who don't like or are afraid of cats have had a bad meet up with a cat whos personality wasn't really friendly. So not all cats are the same, some are affectionate, some are not!
Same with dogs really. Dogs can be terrifying and do so much more damage if they have a bad temperament and aren't properly trained. Thats why its always surprised me that some people are terrified of cats and not dogs. But hey I get that fears aren't always logical
I've found that a lot of people who have had a bad experience with a cat often tried to apply a dog lens to them--reading their body language and such as if they were dogs. Wagging tails in dogs = happy, but in cats = irritated and so on and so forth. So if they go to pet a cat they think is happy, and they get bit, they're going to think cats are jerks.
I'm like that but with people. I met an unfriendly person once so now I avoid all people.
Oh yeah, definitely. I have 3 cats, and 2 of them are so different. One of them loves affection and people, he will jump up onto anyone's lap who would let him and demand you love and attention. Mean while my other cat is a very shy kitty, who needs to sniff you everytime you try to start petting her, she tends to avoid most people except for like me and sometimes my mom. It basically feels like one is an extrovert and the other is an introvert lol. Also if you're wondering about the 3rd cat, he basically like my 1st affecinwte cat, but a bit different. He loves affection too and will jump onto someone's lap sometimes but will keep to himself or snuggle up to the first cat and clean him. They are all so cute, love them.
Even the mean ones can be really affectionate with enough trust and love

nahhh "bc u built like a submarine" was personal lol😂😂
12:03 I think that one is a pregnant female 🥲
Pretty likely as there is almost no fur on her belly
As a cat person and also a dog person that has both this is kinda hilarious bc they both have 2 totally different personality’s and I rly find this hilarious bc I already know how to get cats attention lol- Fun fact bc I think some people (Faline) don’t know about this: The calico cats (3 colored cats-orange,white and black) are mostly females and it’s very rare to find a male calico cat but not impossible lol
My brain just ‘sploded-
I found one my cat literally had his baby
Same with tortoiseshells, which also often have a chimera pattern (half one pattern, half another) with a clean split down their middle if you look closely enough
Male calicos are also sterile
also they usually have horrible health bc they're colored like that due to a chromosome problem so they generally dont live long ://
fun fact about cats: they see humans as one of their own, but know they're heavy sleepers. Cats are very light sleepers for in case of danger and will sleep with their human to make sure they're protected in case anything happens during the night
recently stayed at an airbnb with a cat. we became good friends so she woke me up early in the morning to come lie with me :) the loss of sleep is forgiven after a few cuddles
That makes so much sense cuz I’m a very heavier sleeper to the point u could blast music in my ear and I wouldn’t wake up. My cat sleeps with me a lot and always pops his head up if I slightly move
@@mysteriam9679 that s so very sweet
@@Huh9631 my cat does the same
Awww, I did a similar thing with a very sweet tarantula named Dorothy, I don’t think I’ll ever just be a spider-lover, but I am SIGNIFICANTLY less afraid of them now!! *edit* omg I hadn’t even watched the video yet when I commented this, you are HILARIOUS! Approaching the cat with the same energy as a man with a white van approaching children 🤣 I’m definitely subscribing!! And your mom being more surprised by the cat coming to you than you coming out, I’m cracking up!!
I did a research project in elementary school on spiders to get over my fear of them. They’re unfortunately so diverse that I have to get used to them on a species by species basis. Fast ones typically still scare me. But even the potentially lethal local ones that for some reason nest in our garage door handle I’ve come to basically herd out using a short stick.

as a cat person, im so proud of you, faline. You are helping us with our battle against cat slander.
yes :3
this was said so well
cattos just want slep, milk, fish, pets, & cuddles. mainly slep tho.
As a person who is around cats often, I found it funny how surprised you were about literally everything the cats do
Yes. I was surprised at the surprise. But also at the same time I can’t really talk because every time a cat does something remotely adorable around me I am lost. It could ask me to sell my soul to it, and in that moment, I would.
This was a really cute and funny video. Thanks 😺 Also, I thought your bedhead was pretty stylish
i loved this video from the bottom of my heart, i love the way you diss the fat cats🤣 btw i love both cats and dogs, i will now subscribe to your channel 🥰
fal’s increased adoration towards cats is honestly so relatable
I actually have a friend who's deftly afraid of cats; she literally goes into distress at the sight of a cat and walks (runs) away when one approaches. She explained the reason behind it, and it was because when she was younger, one of the cats they used to own ate its own children. So now she's terrified of cats to the point of anxiety
Yeah, they do that if they're young and are already dying
I am terrified of dogs because as a kid i got chased by bunch of them when I was alone, maybe I will overcome my fear one day because it really is a bother
@@slugsarecool_really makes sense. I, on the other hand, got bit by a dog when I was a child and I love dogs. Idk what is wrong with me..
I guess I'm curious on how she feels about all other animals, since they too eat their young. Is it only bc she specifically saw the cat do it?
Most animals will either eat their young or leave them alone to die if they sense a defect.
Watching this video with one of our gremlins on my lap and feeling very proud. also at 8:08 you understood the catpersons, any cat person wished they were a cat, this is, like, half the reason we love them so much, its jealousy and wishing to be reborn as a cat in next life also they are cute 😊
13:46 That's what she said ... 0.0 What an awesome chonker. Cats are awesome.
For someone not used to interacting with cats, you pet them really well. Cats can get overstimulated so if you pet a cat like you pet a dog they can get agitated so good on you for embracing your fear in the smartest strokes possible.
It's ok to be scared of cats! The most important thing is that they like having their boundaries respected and if people do that, they like them(for the most part, some cats are outlairs) Cats are vastly different from dogs and I love that about them! Edit: when cats slowly blink, that's hello! When they blink, blink back!
11:33 she probably couldn't lick them because she is a female. Most of (if not all) of the three coloured cats are female. There are very rare cases of three coloured males, they have to be born with an extra chromosome.
Calico*
Fun little tip about cat behavior. When they squint their eyes like that they’re not mad they’re happy. They slow blink to show love or affection and when they’re aggressive or in hunt mode their eyes will be wide open with the pupils dilated. So even if the squinting looks like they’re mad it’s actually the opposite.

the thing many people don’t know about cats is the fact that lots of them are very friendly when they see new people. some cats are even just scared, and like to hide. these cats are visited by so many people who want to be able to see and pet a cat. these cats seem very happy because they probably know they’re going to be loved. i have 2 cats, and my first cat (meko) is just so sweet. he’s the cat to just get scared and hide under my parents bed but sometimes he comes down to eat when people are over. meko responds very well to his name, it’s so cute how he trots to you instantly when you call him. my 2nd cat (ash) is pretty different. he’s not much younger than meko, but he’s a lot more.. rude i guess? he likes to be pet only when he wants it. he’ll meow to you non-stop just to be pet for 5 seconds. otherwise he uses his liquid cat powers to avoid being pet. unlike ash, meko loves to be pet by pretty much anyone. either way, unless a cat has had bad experiences, is scared or is just too picky.
i have four of them, the oldest one (ryle) is pretty chill on the whole petting thing and will not actively try to escape and he meows like a baby kitten :3 hes a chonker, my second cat (pip) will actively try to get pet and will approach any and all living beings my third cat (mimi) will not approach you but loves getting pet she immediately starts purring and my fourth one (cara) dosent like to be pet much, so safe to say i have aquired all moods of cat
@@Mary.sLb3 yes yes, you’ve gained the special feline badge! good job for encountering all stages of cat
I’m so glad you put yourself through this. I’m sure it’s different depending on people’s temperament, but cats have been the single largest source of joy and comfort in my life, so of course I would recommend that everyone at least give cats a chance, in case that the same could happen to you.
As a cat owner, I can confirm this is how I got over my fear of cats
''Faline is a feminine name with Latin roots. Coming from names like Feline or Felinus, it translates to 'catlike.' Symbolizing anything from cleverness to curiosity, the cat is a lovely, agile animal to help baby sharpen their claws.''
I laughed out loud pretty much every time you did a shift in tone from wistful/contemplative to aggressively describing the cats. "I couldn't find any trace of him left... Probably 'cause this WIDE FUCCER ate him!"
“This MASSIVE CREATURE” was so funny bro
10:37 as soon as I hard that I had to sub and like. I love your humour lmao
faline insulting the cats the whole time is my favorite thing💀💀
You and cats rlly suit each other with your “im better than everyone” energy lmao. That’s prob y u have more cat ppl viewers as well
faline naming one of the cats stinky is so funny to me because my cats name is literally stinky LMFAO
I was SO scared of cats, like I actually used to run away from them 😭 but about three years ago a cat at my cousin’s houss gave birth to three kittens and they started to take care of the kittens. For some reason I didn’t find the kittens terrifying so i’d visit them about three days a week (?) as time went by the two of the kittens passed away so I pitied the only cat that was left because the mother passed away too. I started visit the cat everyday, that’s how I overcame my fear of cats :) I now have a calico and her name is Mici! She’s the most beautiful girl in the world!!

Okay that first interaction you had where the cat came to you...that feeling...take it...and apply it to literally every time a cat lover interacts with a cat...that is why we are cat people, cause we feel like we have been chosen by the hands of every pantheon in existance when a cat bestows it's love and attention upon us
Wahahahaha true. My family has two cats. The one picked me and ME only to be affectionate to. It indeed felt like I was the chosen one, special enough to be favored by a mighty god 😌
It's very sweet that you approach the cats with respect and awareness of their body language, without jumpiness but with curiosity. I know long-time cat lovers who don't do that (and am guilty of it too)!
5:18 LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE MY CAT BRO-
13:14 mama just say “ohhhhh 肥” got me laugh my fk ass off💀🤣
Fal discovering the joys of cats is just really amazing 😭😭❤️
Sitting down and waiting for the cat to approach you is exactly the right approach. Treats usually go a long way towards making them come to you. That first cat was almost certainly a female. Cats with red and black fur almost always are.
Three side notes for this video: 1_ most of these cats are so acustomed to people (and their treats) that they will show theirs belly in an instant (the majority of cats aren't like that, you have to earn their trust little by little). 2_ If you think that were big cats, google Maine coons cats, they are massive muscular, fluffy felines. By the way, they are overweight from tourist overfeeding them (not good). 3_ for the last one, when people says that cat are trechearous, mean creatures, imagine yourself sleeping and someone starts to disturb you. You won't wake up happy neither.
8:55 so cute man, both the cat and faline look so adorable oml
I love how the cat at the end who got a whole packet to himself was the CHUNKIEST cat you’d seen so far lol
Im pretty sure the chubby orange cat had one arm (I'm gonna put some advice on cats here) 1. If your near a cat stay calm bc if your scared you will have a big chance of getting attacked (based off of my cat) 2. Avoid pushing a cats fur upwards as this will irritate them causing them to attack. 3. Don't boop a cats nose unless the cat let's you as cats have highly sensitive noses, causing them to only let certain ppl boop their nose. 4. Avoid patting a cats belly unless you know it likes belly rubs bc most cats don't like their bellies being touched. 5. Don't touch their paws this will most likely annoy them. That is all I can think of rn
2:39 SHES SP CUTE AAAAHHY
this is why i love cats. dogs see us as gods, and getting them to like you is rarely difficult. cats see you for you. if your vibes are off, *they KNOW.* earning a cats love is one of the best feeling ive ever felt. it never stops being amazing
7:10 I think I bust a lung hearing faline call that cat 'convex-shaped'
1:53 ... why does faline'a hair looks like Dave Strider's hair????? Was that a freaking quest bed?
*TL;DR:* I’m glad your exposure therapy helped you so much, also I have a lot to say about my family’s porch cats that I hope will help you understand cats better 😸 While I’m fairly certain the reason the cats in this village you visited are both so overweight and so docile is because people keep feeding them and thus it is almost impossible for any of them to feel threatened while in that environment, it should be noted that cats are still predators who have those teeth and claws for a reason. Thankfully, this is coming from a cat person, so I can assure you that the old adage still applies: the animals are more afraid of you than you are of them. And like others have said, cats all have different personalities. I’ve met a couple who’ve become _really_ friendly after only about a minute of affectionate gestures. It’s genuinely not totally conditioned into them. Examples: Over the past few years, several feral (as in, born in the wild) cats have become permanent residents on my family’s property. It took quite some work to earn their trust for at least two of them, and the mother of our initial litter of three comes around sometimes because we feed most of the cats who come our way, but she never wants to be within six feet of us. She trusts us with her daughters, she just doesn’t want us touching _her._ Adding back to the “cats are still predators” bit, by the way, at least two of our permanent residents (Sooty and Raven) don’t even completely depend on us to feed them; they can hunt for themselves (the smallest one [Raven] even caught a bluejay once! I was so proud 😻), and we do occasionally see gifts of half-eaten voles on our porch as well (they don’t realize humans don’t normally eat those). The only overweight one is the one who _never leaves the porch_ (Coal). I think the main reasons they stick around us are a) our porch has some of the best shelter in the neighborhood, and b) they actually like _us._ They _will_ be perfectly happy with the affection (but they absolutely won’t turn away free food), and it’s almost certainly the main thing they get from us - one of them (Presto) will sometimes just _appear_ with no warning while we’re doing yard work just to get attention from us and keep us company. And we love her for it. We have encountered some nasty cats, but mostly in the sense of them being mean to the other cats rather than to us. For the most part, though, our girls (and Raven and Rory) are just silly little guys who just want food and pets. Lots of pets. Sooty loves flopping onto the ground for us to pet her neck, sides, and belly, and Rory loves rubbing up against our legs and is always happy to play. (Rory’s sister Jet also loves rubbing up on our legs once she remembers she likes us, but she also mostly hangs out in the woods and we don’t see her quite as often. You’d be surprised how demanding she can be sometimes.) Again, I’m glad your exposure therapy helped you so much. Also I need to tell you that your description of cats always looking like they’re frowning and judging you, while not inaccurate, immediately made me laugh and think of Sooty, whose default expression is more of a “deer-in-the-headlights” look with a touch of “you don’t think _I_ did that, do you?” (It only takes a little bit of tweaking for her to turn it into an effective pleading expression, too. She, Presto, and Raven are all so good at being cats I swear 😹)

I like how you're going to a touristy place in another country to see a "cat village", when basically every village in my country is a cat village 😂
Wow! Where do you live?
@@mallory.22In France. 😁 France also sadly holds the worlds record in pet abandonment 😢
@@PierreMiniggiothats so sad😢 praying and hoping the numbers go down
@@julesoxana I don't know if they are. But there are very many shelters to deal with that problem and put these pets back to adoption. Also there are some middle aged and ederly persons, mostly women who are massively adipting cats they find in the streets. We call them "mamies chat" (literally "cat grandmas"). So most cats you'll see in villages here all have a home, and more rhan 1 home often, gotta taste the neighbour's food as well ! 🤣
@@PierreMiniggio Hopefully they will find their forever homes soon❤️ and i feel that😂 i live in indonesia and thankfully a lot of people take care of the stray cats and animals here since most of them are really used to humans, its so sad how stray animals get mistreated a lot. Praying and hoping no animals suffer❤️
Never seen a video of yours till today and I LOVE your style!!!
Cats love it when you acknowledge their presence with a hi but then leave them alone.
I can confirm Stinky just really liked you. Cats don't go after ppl they don't like, they'll pretend you don't even exist. Stinky wanted your love and attention (and food) lol
You should see a Maine coon cat if you thought those ones were big. 🤣 Those cats are adorable though, and congrats on being able to enjoy cats despite your fear! Love the comedy mixed in the video, lol.
my friend has a mainecoon hes just a baby but hes so heavy
@@yamumma3020 lol that’s awesome.
I have a maine coon! She's a giant fluffball whose favorite pastimes are cuddling and playing! Mostly cuddling. She likes laying down near people and chilling. She's very vocal, and likes to meow when she enters my bedroom lol She's such a goofball, and is basically my emotional support animal. It's hard to be sad or anxious when the big fluffy cat meows at you, demanding pets!
This was the first of Falines videos I watched and Ive watched it like six times now lol its so good
This is such a cute video! I love your personality:))
11:28 this cat is a she, not him btw Basically all calico (3 colored) cats are female, there's less than 1% chance it will be male
Not all, there is a pretty low chance the calico is male but not 1%
@@DaSilverIngot key words "basically" & "less". You might need to work on your reading comprehension skills bestie
@@helf7297 ik. I just said.
I have 2 male calico cats. I thought they were common
“I am just like you all, but better. i am humble” true words spoken by feline san himself
"abbie high five!" *abbie sits*
That was so funny! What a beautiful village, if I ever go there I'd have some serious problems leaving after making friends with every single cat in the place. One little piece of cat trivia for you, all cats with three color fur like this one 11:29 or the first one you met at 4:08, or even this one at 6:41, they're all female cats. Maybe you know this already but there you go.
9:51 Nah cuz why does this cat remind me of a german-jewish dude who failed art school😭😭😭
OH DAMN
Every time Faline posts- I am ascended to a supernatural incarnate of happiness 😊😊
I literally felt so depressed a few days ago and the video primarily about babies screaming on an airplane made me instantly feel better GIVE IT UP FOR ESCAPISM WOOOO!!!!
yess he's my favorite comfort youtuber fr
i used to also have a fear of cats until i moved to a school that had a lot of cats on campus. exposure therapy does work. then i became obsessed with cats and researched a whole bunch ab them (it mightve been a hyperfixation tbh) so here are some facts/tips: - cats mostly prefer being pet on the top of their head and under their chin (from experience), also do not touch a cat's belly because most of them dont like having it touched and will attack your hand lol - if you want to pet a cat, simply hold out your hand or finger and let them sniff it. if they dont move away or they rub themselves against it, they are free to pet :) - if you are petting a cat and it starts to move its tail back and forth, you should probably stop petting it as it can be getting overstimulated and can lash out if it gets too much. give it time to cool off before you try to pet it again, even if it was enjoying the pets. - on a similar note, cats with wagging tails are either a) overstimulated b) very hyper (like zoomies)/in hunting or play mode or c) angry - tri-colored cats (aka calicos - ginger, white, and tabby/black/grey) are almost always female unless the cat is born with an extra chromosome, and it is sterile in most cases. the same goes for tortoise shell (bi-colored - black/grey/tabby and ginger with little to no white) cats thats it :33
It's not the intimidation you're feeling. It's the chaotic energy of the cat
