[0:00]hey everyone welcome back uh there's

[0:02]stuff's here I am so thrilled I think

[0:05]they're going to love it I cannot wait

[0:08]to set it up and show you guys uh first

[0:11]I want you to meet my cats because one

[0:13]of them is kind of shy he's probably

[0:14]going to want to go in soon so to start

[0:17]with that I'm going to see if I can just

[0:18]reverse my

[0:20]camera hope so there are my cats Bailey

[0:25]and Oliver Oliver is the orange

[0:28]one and he acts like a dog in a lot of

[0:32]ways uh he bites you all the time in a

[0:35]cute way usually doesn't hurt you but if

[0:38]he's scared he might bite pretty hard I

[0:40]actually think it's

[0:42]endearing um Bailey he's the one that

[0:44]was abandoned by his mom when he was a

[0:46]day old and this is what he's grown

[0:48]into and he

[0:51]is very adventurous I think he would

[0:54]love to be out there so when I'm out

[0:57]here this is what they live in or not

[0:59]what they live in what they play

[1:01]in and you know I let them come out here

[1:04]when they want

[1:06]and they hang out here for a little

[1:08]while and then we go back inside and

[1:10]that's our life and it's just not the

[1:12]life I want us to

[1:14]have so what I did was got them all this

[1:18]stuff it's all by Kitty City and we're

[1:21]just going to assemble it on and see and

[1:24]you know set set it up and put them in

[1:26]it and see how how they like it I hope

[1:28]they love it and then there's just a

[1:30]couple of other things like I got them a

[1:32]first aid

[1:33]k um this is something you put water in

[1:36]and there's a dish in it that the locks

[1:39]shot and I thought you know that's

[1:40]pretty cool you can take it in and out

[1:43]of the RV so they have water while

[1:44]they're outside and then this is just

[1:47]got some some Pat supplies in it it says

[1:51]it's for dogs but you know it'll work

[1:54]for cats too um so give me just a minute

[1:57]and we'll get

[1:58]started so first thing I want to do is

[2:01]just get them some water while they're

[2:02]out here try this thing

[2:05]out there they came in two sizes I got

[2:08]the bigger one which I don't think I

[2:10]should have done because you know it's

[2:11]an RV everything should be small um I

[2:14]just didn't I I'm not very good

[2:17]with um measurements things like that I

[2:20]I really didn't know how big it would be

[2:21]and it doesn't look too big I actually

[2:23]think it might work actually it's pretty

[2:25]good actually so I'm just going to deal

[2:27]with that real

[2:28]quick

[2:31]okay so it's actually a really good size

[2:35]um it's pretty

[2:37]awesome normally I don't give them tap

[2:40]water I just

[2:42]don't they actually drink drink Fiji

[2:45]Water I hope no one criticizes me for

[2:48]that I just want them to have good water

[2:50]but you know on the road I'm probably

[2:52]going to have to get um you know some

[2:55]kind of

[2:57]filtration there is something down here

[3:00]wait for this to stop

[3:03]and you know obviously goes into that

[3:06]and it's got this red button I don't

[3:08]really understand it it just pushes that

[3:11]down so if anyone knows please let me

[3:14]know cuz I have no idea what it

[3:16]does um so you know so me just screw it

[3:21]on I have no idea what this button is

[3:23]for like what is it doing it's moving

[3:28]that um but why like what does that do

[3:33]so hope this works so here we

[3:36]go you know easy to

[3:39]carry can't beat that so coming out of

[3:42]the

[3:43]RV cats are in their play

[3:46]pen and they've got fresh water wherever

[3:49]they are hey guys I got you some fresh

[3:53]water you stay in there okay you stay in

[3:56]there buddy I got you some water oh

[4:01]sorry all right let's see

[4:03]if which camera is this can I zoom

[4:07]out trying to zoom out here guys okay

[4:11]so um somehow this opens oh no ol ol so

[4:18]when they are on campgrounds and things

[4:22]like that I might have to change like

[4:25]how

[4:26]I um bring them in and out cuz I really

[4:29]do want them to be safe these cats are

[4:32]very

[4:34]spoiled there we

[4:37]go you know they're chimped vaccinated

[4:39]all that stuff of course

[4:44]and but I definitely I don't want

[4:46]anything to happen to these two guys I

[4:48]love them so much they're so

[4:51]cool is the water coming out I can't

[4:54]really a little bit of water is it

[4:58]enough that button do

[5:01]anything I don't know what this button

[5:03]is for I really have no

[5:06]idea wait maybe if you just hold it open

[5:09]oh I think it FS oh okay I get it it's

[5:12]taking the well so it doesn't f itself

[5:16]up I just assumed it was worked on

[5:21]gravity so doesn't that mean if this

[5:24]Runs Out of

[5:26]Water the dish part I have to put more

[5:29]water in in it it doesn't do it itself I

[5:31]think that's what's going on there so

[5:34]that's

[5:36]cool um I think that's perfect I love

[5:39]that and it's the perfect size um if you

[5:42]guys are interested in it you know I'll

[5:45]I can post some links I'll do you know

[5:47]I'll do

[5:48]that so I'm going to just let these guys

[5:50]play Bailey will start doing that when

[5:52]he wants out but he doesn't he doesn't

[5:55]really want in if I were to take him in

[5:58]now he would want right back outside

[6:01]what he really wants is go running

[6:04]around not sure what Oliver is doing

[6:06]Oliver is the good one I could have let

[6:09]him out and he'd walk right to the door

[6:11]all by himself he'd just well that's

[6:15]doesn't happen every day Oliver you be

[6:19]nice that's your brother you be nice so

[6:23]you probably saw his eye there

[6:25]he um when he was a baby before I had

[6:28]him he had an infection is what I'm told

[6:31]and you can see it one of his under his

[6:33]eyelid there's this Scar and it just

[6:36]causes him to always have problems with

[6:39]that eye and just draining

[6:41]stuff and so that's a constant like

[6:44]maintenance thing with

[6:47]him

[6:49]um yeah they're awesome I mean Oliver

[6:53]is just a joyous cat he is it took a

[6:57]long long time years before he really

[6:59]warmed up to me you know now he he sits

[7:02]on my lap a lot

[7:04]and he's just so lovely he doesn't he

[7:07]doesn't sleep in my bed because of

[7:10]Bailey Bailey refuses to let him in the

[7:13]room most days he guards my bed all

[7:16]night long and keeps him out of there

[7:18]I'm hoping maybe a different environment

[7:20]we get into the RV you know maybe that

[7:24]will change I mean you change their

[7:25]environment and sometimes it changes

[7:27]their behavior cuz I would love to have

[7:30]them

[7:31]both I always try to let Oliver know how

[7:34]welcome he is you know and sometimes he

[7:36]does sleep with me but mostly he

[7:41]doesn't hey buddy I love

[7:45]you love you Oliver

[7:48]ow jeez those are some claws

[7:52]dude M will just hang out over here he's

[7:56]such a cool cat he's so cool

[8:00]I love

[8:02]him so when he was a baby you know for

[8:05]the six first six weeks I didn't have

[8:07]him the the woman who found him did and

[8:10]took very good care of him and then I

[8:12]took over after 6 weeks uh he got very

[8:15]sick soon after I got him he when he got

[8:17]his first shots he got very sick I went

[8:20]to like five different

[8:22]vets every single day a different vet

[8:25]until I found a really good one who

[8:26]understood what's happening to him

[8:29]uh it cost a lot but we got him

[8:33]healthy and we became very close from

[8:36]that I think and you know he had to be

[8:38]fed with a syringe it was a wet food

[8:41]with pumpkin mixed in

[8:44]it um but as an adult he does not eat

[8:47]any wet food at all it's just so weird

[8:49]we cannot get him to eat anything but

[8:52]dry food I've tried everything he just

[8:55]and I think maybe that experience is why

[8:56]he

[8:58]just Associates the two and I mean we

[9:02]give Oliver what

[9:03]food Bailey just doesn't care at

[9:07]all so those are my cats they're going

[9:10]to be in an RV with me living life

[9:13]living life to the

[9:16]fullest and so my thought

[9:19]is you know I don't know how much time

[9:21]I'll spend

[9:23]at um and I don't know the rules there I

[9:25]mean I know you can have dogs if they're

[9:27]unleashes so I assume you can have cats

[9:30]and I I just don't know can they be

[9:33]outside um especially if they're in like

[9:35]a tent like

[9:37]structure um I'm just looking for

[9:40]something so I I don't plan to spend a

[9:43]lot of time at camgrounds I will

[9:45]sometimes and while I'm there you know

[9:47]they're going to have this modular

[9:50]tent um stuff that I can set up for them

[9:53]and if I can I'm going to even try a DIY

[9:56]like tunnel that leads into a window so

[9:59]they can just come and go as they want

[10:01]during the

[10:03]day I um haven't thought that totally

[10:07]through I'm not you know like I said in

[10:09]my first video I'm A

[10:11]programmer and you know so I just don't

[10:13]I don't have any mechanical skill at all

[10:16]I'm just opening this box

[10:19]here but doesn't mean I don't want to

[10:21]try and learn new

[10:23]skills and I figure if I'm living in an

[10:25]RV I'm going to have to learn some new

[10:27]skills right

[10:31]so I'm gonna try to do that for them I

[10:34]think

[10:35]that they'll love that I I want them to

[10:38]have a better life I don't feel like

[10:40]this is a good life for them you know

[10:43]they spend a lot of time

[10:45]indoors

[10:49]and nobody should be indoors all the

[10:51]time including

[10:52]myself so so you

[10:55]know I want to do better for them so

[10:58]here we go this is what I I you know I

[11:01]kind of think of as

[11:03]um the structure that all the other

[11:05]structures come off oh

[11:08]wow oh

[11:11]God so there's some assembly required I

[11:14]should have expected that oh my God

[11:17]there's a lot of assembly

[11:22]required oh I this I wasn't expecting so

[11:26]it's not like I thought it was is kind

[11:29]of

[11:31]um

[11:33]collapsible I guess not so this is going

[11:36]to be a hard thing to take apart and put

[11:38]together every couple

[11:40]days oh man that

[11:43]sucks doesn't mean I won't do it though

[11:47]honestly

[11:49]cuz um well it's not that bad really you

[11:53]know I get it it's

[11:54]not it's not that bad we'll see how long

[11:57]it takes I'm going to put it aside for a

[12:01]minute

[12:03]um very

[12:07]cool yeah I mean it's not I mean it's

[12:10]not

[12:12]terrible yeah the cats are going to hate

[12:14]me cuz I can just see now there's going

[12:16]to be times where I'm like I don't want

[12:18]to put this together but they've got

[12:21]other stuff I guess I'm keeping that t

[12:24]then well I really don't know I I'll

[12:26]have to think about it I guess

[12:29]cuz this will not cut it of course this

[12:33]was just meant to be a

[12:35]piece that comes off of it just going to

[12:38]set this down you guys don't mind see

[12:42]how this

[12:44]goes all right make it

[12:47]easier

[12:49]um man I don't know why I just I assumed

[12:53]it was

[12:57]collapsible we'll see how long it takes

[12:59]I have no idea and you know after you do

[13:01]it a couple times probably get pretty

[13:03]good at

[13:04]it these are some real crapp

[13:07]scissors those would be my neighbor's

[13:09]dogs they have three of

[13:13]them and they are always barking at me

[13:15]when I'm

[13:16]outside one of the reasons I don't like

[13:19]living here actually I like the

[13:22]dogs um we feed them bacon but just too

[13:27]much no privacy that's another reason

[13:29]why I don't want to be on

[13:31]campire I'm trying to do

[13:33]something that takes me out of this kind

[13:37]of an environment I don't want to

[13:40]just duplicate that environment in an

[13:43]RV so that's why boondocking appeals to

[13:46]one but you know there are some camps

[13:48]where where it's not so

[13:51]bad where you've got space or you've got

[13:55]trees you just got to find the right

[13:57]ones and I'm going to look around a lot

[13:58]and do a lot

[14:02]of

[14:04]um just you know a lot of research and

[14:07]I'll keep

[14:08]notes and you know I'll return to those

[14:10]places

[14:14]sometimes collect them

[14:17]all so let's see

[14:26]here I can't imagine this one

[14:32]yeah see this is what I was expecting

[14:34]just something

[14:36]simple but this isn't going to be big

[14:38]enough not a cat like

[14:42]Bailey it's not a bad size

[14:45]though that's pretty easy to be

[14:49]honest don't really understand

[14:54]this

[14:57]thep yeah you take these down very cool

[15:01]you just take these

[15:03]down and if they need sun

[15:07]sh they don't

[15:21]more don't

[15:27]know

[15:32]you know what I feel like an idiot right

[15:34]now I have no idea somehow

[15:38]used over here

[15:43]right is not a bad

[15:51]sign you guys okay over there know those

[15:55]dogs hopefully the neighbors will take

[15:57]them in soon

[16:01]oh I mean I love the dogs but just a lot

[16:04]of I have like six neighbors I got a

[16:07]neighbor behind me who just set up he

[16:09]just did

[16:11]this that little structure

[16:15]there I thought it might have been for

[16:17]his kids or something but it's he put a

[16:20]rooster in there today it's been it's

[16:22]been Ro roosting all day long and and

[16:25]you're not supposed to do that in you

[16:27]know a city they a city or

[16:31]ordinances to me it feels inconsiderate

[16:34]I I get it you know you get free

[16:36]eggs um and I don't want to criticize

[16:40]anyone trying to make their lives easier

[16:43]but it's still kind of

[16:45]inconsiderate very windy all of a

[16:48]sudden going all over the

[16:53]place all right poppy if you

[16:57]win hold on

[16:59]I'm just going to get them some bacon

[17:01]maybe they'll leave me alone

[17:05]after this is my life

[17:09]here I don't want to sound like I'm

[17:11]complaining it's

[17:13]just you're not going to find salace

[17:15]here I I literally cannot go outside

[17:18]without someone

[17:22]around just making it feel less Pleasant

[17:26]I mean just don't want to live this way

[17:29]anymore really

[17:31]don't all right let's go Fe these

[17:34]so a the little ones out hi little one

[17:39]you are the cute

[17:40]one hi

[17:42]puppies all right hold

[17:47]on

Summary

The speaker introduces their two cats, Bailey and Oliver, explaining their personalities and backgrounds. Bailey was abandoned as a day-old kitten and is adventurous, while Oliver is orange, acts dog-like, and had early health issues including an eye infection. The speaker demonstrates a new water dispenser system and begins assembling modular cat enclosure equipment from Kitty City for upcoming RV travel.

The speaker expresses dissatisfaction with their current living situation, citing lack of privacy due to multiple neighbors, barking dogs, and a neighbor's rooster. They explain their motivation for RV life is to provide better outdoor experiences for the cats and escape the crowded environment. The assembly process proves more complex than expected, requiring full construction rather than simple pop-up setup.

Throughout the video, the speaker discusses practical considerations for traveling with cats, including campground rules, potential DIY tunnel systems for RV access, and the challenge of frequent setup/breakdown of equipment. They acknowledge their lack of mechanical skills as a programmer but express willingness to learn new abilities for RV living.
