Hello friends! Be prepared for a cuteness overload with this video! Join us as we bring home our ragdoll kitten Binx and fall absolutely in love with her! To clarify though she isn't purebread ragdoll, her mom was part Siamese (which is why she is black, unlike most ragdolls). We hope you enjoy falling for her as much as we have! If you do have any advice for a new cat owner, please share! 🧡

Congratulations on your new fur baby! She’s adorable. I have 3 bits of cat parent wisdom for you. First, I had a cat who didn’t learn how to purr until she was two. Don’t feel bad that Binx is not purring yet. The way she sleeps (all stretched out) shows that she is happy and feels safe. Secondly, when a kitten bites, the Momma cat bites it back. Since you are not going to bite Binx, you need to firmly tell her not to bite you or Jared. Then give her something that she is allowed to bite. And lastly, do not put bells on a cat. It’s cruel. I’m so glad that you removed the one from her collar. It appears that you have everything else under control and are doing GREAT! You and Jared are awesome pet parents!

Absolutely put bells on a cat! Domestic cats are one of the main reasons why the birdpopulation is plummeting. If your cat can be outside, put bells on them. At least have them on in spring and early summer, when there are little chicks. I have no idea why you think it is cruel, it does not harm them in any way.

I actually bite my new puppies back the way the momma would and they stop biting pretty quickly. I will even growl at my pups so they know I am not pleased with their behavior. If you don’t mind a little fur in your mouth give her a firm,not hurt her, but firm bite back and she’ll get it. Lol it’s like a light spanking.

@@Rana-Ehab-Mohamed saying mainly stray cats chase birds is ridiculous many ppl have indoor outdoor cats and sadly they are killing the wild birds at an alarming rate.

It’s actually vet recommended in the spring and summer.

Kittens have 3x the energy of adult cats, and are still learning boundaries! Redirect any biting to a toy. Never ever play with just your hands - ever. Keep toys near you always for this purpose. If she's extra aggressive, get up and have a large play session. It's disruptive but you gotta help her get that energy out in a productive/safe way ☺️🖤 . She's like a toddler with tiny knives, you just gotta wear her out 😂

Still watching and I see you have a toy which she is ignoring. You need to be more aggressive with said toy ☺️ assert some dominance, use the toy to wrestle with her and get a bigger one if the mouse isn't interesting. You can't "talk" or logic her out of this behavior. It has to be physically and strictly redirected.

I agree with all this so much. My cat (also Binx!) was so bitey at this age. Kittens are hard work. When he was about 3 months I questioned whether I was the right fit for him. I was struggling to cope. He was eating everything in his path, all my belongings were on the top of my bookshelf, and I was covered in scratches and bites. He grew out of it though. We would make a loud OW noise when he bit us and he eventually stopped doing it. He’s now a chonky 11 year old and we adore him.

Binx is such a cutieeeee!! When my kitty was a kitten he was also a big biter and chewer. I got him a teething worm to chew on and never let him chew on my clothes, wires, or my fingers. I would also squeal and stop playing with him whenever he got over excited and bit me. Binx seems to be playing with you like she'd play with her siblings. She doesn't understand that your skin is more sensitive. She's just trying to show how much she likes you as a playmate. She will eventually learn what is acceptable as long as you keep the rules consistent, cats are so smart.

Oh. My. Godness. I adopted my black kitty girl 4 months ago. I just found your channel through this video and I believe it's a gift from the Gods. I started my cat adventure by adopting an abandoned, sick, almost dying little baby of 6 years. He was in terrible shape when I got him, yet through years of love, proper care and patience he turned into the most beautiful, rare and amazing shy little baby. We believed he was abandoned and mistreated by his previous family, because of how scared and feral he was at the beginning. We even thought he was mixed norwegian because of how beautiful he turned out to be ! Long fur, full of colors, one eye orange one eye yellow. However, I had to say goodbye to this adorable love of my life after 5,5 years because of how sick he was. Even afer giving him all my love, even after we became best friends, after we grew up together and found love, comfort, security and peace in each other, I had to help him cross the rainbow Bridge. I planned on ending my life days after. If not for my actual lover and partner of life, I wouldn't have make it. I adopted my little shadow 4 months ago. I really wanted a little girl, I wanted a black kitty, I wanted to get her small because I wanted to give the perfect life to a baby from the beginning. Yet, adopting a tiny kitten after such an adventure with my previous cat is sometimes extremely heavy and difficult. Their personnalities are so different, they have NOTHING in common anyhow and I find myself regretting to have adopted such an extremely different type of cat. I loved the long hair, I loved the big body, I loved the big paws, the fluffy tails, I loved the colors, and apart from the personality, to not be able to find tiny parts of my previous cat in my kitten sometimes completely breaks me. NOW, I find your video. And I see this little cutie that looks so much like my little shadow. And I see your joy, I see your excitement, I see the face of your little darkness and she reminds me of my little Kin, just 3 or 4 months earlier. And I realize that I will be able to watch my tiny baby grow up as well as your tiny baby. Kin keeps chewing EVERYTHING. She doesn't pur much, just when in our arms when she just wakes up...PLUS I also see that you have a dog, and I somehow, really wanted to adopt a dog rather than a cat after losing my dear Amber. Seeing your two black loves, I'm like...hey, why not getting a dog as well some time later ? I could have both, just like this lady here ! So...thanks for the Universe to make me discover your channel, esp. through this video. This is a reminder that my baby is still so small, and we have to get to know eachother, I have to be her "other" mother now and this baby is PURE innocence and love. I will overcome this difficult transition part, and...Seeing your joy, seeing the tiny little black paws of your baby, makes me grateful that I have the same slightly bigger black paws at home. I can't wait to get news from your little shadow !

Hi, Desi! Vet tech here. Binx is the cutest thing ever! May I give you some advise? Do not let her play rough (scratching and biting) with your hands or foot or she will do the same non stop when she's bigger and stronger, because she won't realise she's really hurting you. You can't stop 100% a cat from doing something because, you know, cats are one of a kind, but you can redirect her energy from your hand to her favourite toy and move and shake the toy. Cats are predators and need hunting so if she sees your hands are moving instead of the toy she will go to hands, so make sure the toy keeps her interested. Second advise and the most important: NEUTER her when she's like 6-8 months old, you can avoid sooooooo many problems like tumours, infections, behaviour issues, etc. And the third, feed her quality food and let her food bowl full at all times! Kittens need as much proteine and fat as possible when they are growing up so let her eat whenever she wants and needs. I'm so so happy for you, little Binx is gonna bring you a lot of happiness and I know for sure you're going to make her life as happy as possible. D'artagnan will be thrilled to have a nap and play mate. Thanks for your videos and making us feeling more cozy and peaceful! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

From watching your videos. I would advise not constantly putting your fingers near her. It’s teaching her to bite and she wants to play fight with you which means she loves you. Also you both will learn boundaries with each other. Cats need their alone time and she will learn in time to not to bite so much. I do think giving her a toy to chew instead is a great alternative than your hand. Hopes this helps ❤ you’re kitten is so cute and I love this cozy space that you created.

Congratulations on your new fur baby Desi! Im so happy for you and all the new exciting adventures Binx will bring. (P.s. i love your channel and always look forward to new videos) 🥰💕 I must say however that I work with cats for a living and Binx is far too young to have been seperated from momma! This isnt your fault of course and as a new cat mum im sure you didnt realise, but this may impact some of her behaviours she would normally learn from momma as part of her development as well as friendly play with her litter mates. I would also recommend that for the biting, if she does bite, IMMEDIATELY put a toy in her mouth or remove your hand. Try not to taunt her with fingers/linger when stroking her face - she will learn that biting is acceptable. I also stress that you PLEASE wait until she is a bit older until you take her for walks outside, or at least wait until she has had her first vaccinations to stop her from picking up any nasty bugs and getting poorly. She is still SO young and her immune system would not be able to fight off any serious infections. I hope you know I only say all of this out of love and in the hope it helps! Please keep making amazing content! Your videos never fail to bring a smile to my face 🥰💕

Edit: I've omitted my comment in regards to concern about little Binx's age. Desi has responded to this in the comments section, and while it's great we're all concerned for Binx, let us remember that Desi has and always will put her loved ones first. With that said, please remember to be kind, when sharing your opinions. I'm sure all of our concerns, Desi has given much consideration to beforehand, they're just not addressed in this video. We can never know all the details. ♥️ I was so happy when I saw you were welcoming a new family member!! Congratulations on your new furbaby.🥰 Freeze dried treats are wonderful! She's perhaps still too small for the crunchy ones. She may even still be losing her baby teeth at this age, in case you find tiny teeth lying around. 🦷 The brands of cat food you bought are so good ingredient wise. It's really hard to find a well rounded pet food, and being you're a first time cat owner, I'm super impressed by the brands you chose. I personal don't believe collars are safe for cats. You might already be aware of this yourself, but too many cats get their jaws stuck trying to bite the collar off. If that happened while she was unsupervised, I would be terrified of her hurting herself or choking. 😥Harnesses are wonderful for training your cat to go on walks and hikes. You could start taking her on walks as soon as 11-12 weeks, if she's not very skittish. If you have a Mudbay in your area, they have some wonderful cat harnesses there even for small growing kittens. The brand is called RC pets. With that said, they also have all the brands of food and treats you've been purchasing, too. They also have cat toys at Mudbay made of natural materials and not as much of a choking hazard as some of PetSmart cat toys. Rabbit fur toys, wool toys, catnip pillows, and they have handcrafted cat toys too. They're really cute and I'm a big fan of natural materials. My heart broke when I saw the KMR. It's too bad the breeder was impatient about rehoming her. 😔 You have so much to look forward to with Binx. Cats are so smart and loving! There will be time for treat puzzles, and hiking in first snow, going on bike rides, etc. I'm looking forward to all the moments you will share with us. Kittens grow up way too fast, but being surrounded by so much love, she will make the most wonderful cat. 🧡🧡💛💛

I agree. She does seem young. However, I found a 4 wk old kitten back in September. (Fell out of the undercarriage of a passing car - I checked my security footage to see if I could find where mom went). She’s doing quite well. I never did give her milk replacement. My vet and I were in constant contact and I’ve been working with her mimicking what mom would do for her. Granted, I have two other cats. One 10yo and one 2yo. So I’m sure she’s learning more from them than me. 😂 she is also extremely bitey. But I squeak whenever she bites me and it has gotten exponentially better in the past week or so. She’s also a very loud purr machine - and she loves to give little kitten licks. My hands, face, arms, nowhere is safe. 🖤

YES to collars. Collars are way safer than going missing, then never found. Or found dead/maimed. Every day, we see notices about missing cats w/o collars. Owners almost never see them again. You can make collars that are safer or more comfortable. And if you think collars aren’t comfortable, harnesses certainly aren’t. Neither is walking them like a dog-they aren’t dogs.

@@rlfolder5437 Microchipping is also a way for identifying lost pets. Often times the collar ID has outdated information if a person moves, or changes their phone number. The worst case scenario I see, is an uncollared pet being taken in and not scanned for a microchip. That's probably a more common outcome for a cute cat on the streets. If there's serious need for a collar then you should be informed of the hazards of one to your cat, such as: They could get their paw stuck in their collar, or their jaw. Such accidents have serious potential to cause injury, including strangulation, deep skin lacerations, and jaw damage. Not to forget if their collar got caught on something and they get stuck wherever they are. Yes there's breakaway collars, but then your point is null and void. Most pets that are hit by cars, you would report to your local animal control and they will usually scan the body upon pickup for a microchip to inform families. At least that's how it is in Oregon and Washington. A collar is a serious tool that lets others know the animal has an owner, and unless you're tracking them with a gps, that's all it is. I'll continue to encourage those with an indoor only cat that a collar is not necessary to them. It's unfair to expect them to adjust and wear something like that full time for our peace of mind. It's not enriching their life at all. If there is a need, such as an indoor/outdoor cat, then sure. But my cat's comfort and wellbeing is more important than the peace of mind a collar might offer me for something like door dashing. They're microchipped. If a person is honest, they would take them to a vet or shelter to be checked and identified. I've trained eight cats and kittens to walk on a harness. I would say my experience disagrees with that statement. Each cat has a different opinion towards a harness, sure, and as someone who advocates enriching your cats life, it's important to honor whatever is most comfortable to your cat. With that said, the majority of my cats request to go out on a harness despite the fact we have a cat enclosure for them to freely roam. They occasionally enjoy a change in scenery that a walk offers them. It's more the sense of feeling "trapped" by a harness and leash in a stressful or scary situation, that bothers them. Like unleashed dogs, and strangers approaching. To offer the best experience for your cat while walking on a harness, it's better to go to a less populated area unless you specifically have an outgoing cat that handles new/loud/busy environments. Many people are successful in training their cats to walk with them without a lead. In the end, a cat is a cat. They will do what they want. They are not property. We're only here to provide them companionship and a safe home, in whatever shape or form that is for you. If you choose a collar for your cat, be well informed.

Jack is two now and does still bite randomly 😂 he’ll go into an attack mode for absolutely no reason and apparently it’s just him playing . Cats are like aliens lol

She's so cute... biting, and kicking is a big part of their play. And the reason she prefers you over the toy is because you are warm and can play back. I used a wool sock over my hand so that I could play wrestle with my kittens, getting their belly and letting them bite and kick to their hearts content. Once her energy is expelled, their more cozy, cuddly nature comes out.

Some advice from someone with a cat decidedly not used to both, make sure your kitten gets used to driving in the car and gets used to sitting on your lap! It'll make travel with your cat so much easier if she isn't afraid of cars and it'll be nice to have a pet to cuddle with

What a sweet baby! Just so you know, when kittens are separated from their siblings too early they often don't learn boundaries and so they end up biting and scratching harder than they should. What helped me with kittens in the past is yelling loudly OUCH and then taking your hand away slowly. Binx's siblings would have verbalized if she bit too hard and hurt them so this can help. Also she is probably teething and likes to chew! So she's going to go for whatever feels good to chew aka fingers. It will get better as she gets older!

Binx looks like such a fiesty and chaotic furball! the biting is normal at that age because they usually play-fight with their littermates. it would help to have another kitten to keep her company but even without that, i think she'll grow out of it once she gets used to playing with her toys. it's clear from the way that she's biting you that she doesn't do it because she feels threatened or scared, rather she's just playing with you. (personally, i let my cats bite and scratch me, i've kinda gotten used to it but that's just a me thing lol) the purring also doesnt always come immediately for cats, even if they feel happy in your presence. but she'll start purring by and by. her sleeping posture shows that she's comfortable around your presence because cats don't expose their belly when they are scared or suspicious of their surroundings. as someone who has had cats for years, it's a surprise that i've never had a black cat and i dearly want one.

What adorable fur babies! Kittens like most baby mammals use their mouths to try and understand their environment so it's perfectly natural and not a sign of aggression. In addition she will be teething so something hard and soothing to chew on may help her. We always take one of our cats (Moonbeam) for walks on a leash up our mountain. Get her used to being in new environments and strangers early on as black cats are known for being anxious of new situations if not acclimatised early on in their lives.

Your adorable baby is teething. That’s why she is biting so much. Our vet said that when the cat bites or scratches too hard you should do what a cat mom does and give her a firm tap on the snout so she knows this behavior displeases you. We had a problem with our kitty scratching aggressively so I followed the vet’s advice and she got the point immediately. They have to learn what amount is play and what is hurting. Their moms would train them that same way. We never had a problem after that. You can’t expect them to know that without training. You are excellent cat parents and your kitty will be as spoiled as ours was. LOL!

I have been a cat person forever, and can say that it is amazing how different they all are. My current kitty I adopted as a1-year-old tuxedo cat in 2020 in the middle of Covid. I have never had a cat that was a biter, but she is and will always be. She also is not a cuddler, which is was really sad about at first. But again... all cats are different. It seems that for some cats it is like an automatic reflex that is part of their nature. I love that you are getting her outside and in the harass now. I would love to walk and take my girl outside, but I am sure it will take longer to get used to since she is older. Have fun! Will be fun to watch her progress as she grows!

Dear Desi, I am so happy for you and your new fur-baby! And I am so glad that you are taking the time and effort to research what is needed for her to be most comfortable and happy in your house. You are showing that you are very considerate, and this is why I want to share with you a thought of mine. Recently I noticed that I am starting to feel uncomfortable watching your videos because of the huge amount of new purchases that appear in each one. I understand that your channel's main focus is cozyness and aesthetic and that, because of that, it is not the place to address the social and climate crisis we are currently facing, but at the same time I think it is a responsability of everyone who has such a huge platform to help people reflect on the damages that capitalism and consumerist culture have done so far. I think that a channel like yours could do miracles in helping people learn that we can have a lovely life without the need for costant purchase of new things, especially because you focus so much on small things. And yet, in every video there is a haul, of clothes, books, food items, now the cat (you said you got her from a breeder... couldn't you just adopt from a shelter?) and her toys... I really wish that the very powerful message that you are spreading through your videos, which is to romaticize your everyday life through little things that give you joy, could exist without attaching it to the concept that you have to buy things to be happy. A least, new things. I would focus more on second-hand, or maybe the joy of giving something in your life and home a new purpose. It is something that we all need right now, we need to educate ourselves that we don't need all these new things. Thank you for reading so far, I hope that you might consider this suggestion not in terms of a critic but as an encouragement, because I strongly believe in your value as a person and as a content creator.

The cat is not purebred. So it's not likely it comes from a breeder. And frankly, it's her money, so she can spend it if she wants. I still love to watch Ina Garten cooking shows even though the woman is fantastically wealthy and lives in the Hamptons and spends all day puttering around her lovely McMansion and garden grounds and entertaining on a vast scale. Sometimes folks like to live vicariously through other people.

​@@benjalucian1515 She mentioned both in the comments and in the video that she got her from a breeder. In a comment she even wrote that the breeder pressured her to get the cat before it was the right time, and that she - rightfully - was not happy about it. Yes, everyone can do what they want with their money, but we must not forget how impactful it is. Since we look at these people as "aspirational", I think it is important that we progressively redefine what aspirational is. Of course I would not have written my comment to an Ina Garten, but since Desi is very keen on a narrative of lovely little things, I think it is a good idea to start suggesting that these lovely little things in life do not need to always be purchased.

@@aurorapiaggesi - one cat is not impactful. Desi is a new cat mom, she didn't do her due diligence on choosing a cat. These folks did not act like a reputable breeder. A reputable breeder has a contract you have to enter into before they will sell you a kitten, excellent breeders will require a letter of recommendation from your veterinarian and, they sell NO kittens before 16 weeks. I've had 4 purebreds in my lifetime. All of the breeders were like this. The people she bought Binx from were poseurs or conmen. They sold her a mixed breed kitten, 2 months too young, they refused to keep her longer. So I truly doubt they were breeders. They only called themselves that to give themselves cache. I don't consider KZfaqrs "aspirational". I feel for people who think that way. For me, they're entertainment.

Maybe for you it is just entertainment, but for most of the others, especially younger audience who become affectionate to the creators they follow, it is not just that. They look up to them, they follow their advice. And many times this is a good thing. I also think that many of the things that Desi says and does in her videos are very valuable, and this is why I wrote that comment. I would not have done so to a creator who, for example, is doing Shein or H&M hauls, because it would be a game lost before starting. But because Desi is so considerate, I am hopeful that she can evaluate not to stop what she does, but to do it a little more sustainably. It is not just because of the cat, it is because for a while now I have noticed that most of her recent content is based on purchasing new things. But, since her focus on the channel is "romanticising your everyday life" I do not think that you are spreading a good message if you are saying that to do so you must buy new things all the time. Not, at least, without considering more sustainable options like thrifting, renting, second.hand etc etc.

Kittens go through teething stages also. Don't let her keep biting you and don't use your hands to play with her as if they're toys. That will train her to think that it's okay. Give her a safe toy she can chew on. Sometimes she'll damand her own space and set boundaries that you gotta respect. What I do when my cat tries to be me is pull away, then say "boop!" In a highish pitch and then boop her nose. It will throw her off. It's also my way of saying, " I won't hurt you. I won't pick you up, but I want to pet you". By now, my cat and I know how to communicate with me telling her "I love you" and her slow blinking back at me. She knows it means the same thing. My husband and I have 5 cats. Lol

Biggest tip for kittens is never use your hands as toys, and learning to realize when she just *doesn’t want* pets (biting when you try to pet) I have friends with dogs that treat my cats like dogs and they don’t realize that cats are so different and might have a personality where they aren’t super into pets unless they ask for them.

@@DarlingDesi - ah, poor Desi. It's unfortunate, but sometimes cats and their owners personalities do not mesh well. You want to be able to pick up a cat and love on her and Binx is not that kind of cat. I call it "well of love vs fountain of love" cat differences. Some cats need a fountain of love. They want loving all the time, flowing all over them. They follow you around, are stubborn lap cats and won't move even if you want them to when they're sleeping on your head or under your blankets. Other cats want a well of love. When they want loving, they'll come to you to get some. My last two pairs of cats were one of each. One was a loving lap cat, always wants to be with me, purring and loving and licking me, sleeping right next to me. The other was aloof, distant, friendly to be sure, but didn't like to be picked up, didn't sleep close, she slept at the foot of the bed, but she was still a good and loving cat. Just different.

Most cats don't like to be petted or touched constantly. A quick rub on the top of their head, or under their chin then stop. Cats get overstimulated very quickly and this can have them biting or scratching out of reflex. Also, if the cat is curled up by itself somewhere or anywhere really; don't go up and start rubbing or touching the cat. Cats will come to you when they want affection. Lastly, don't put your hand or fingers in her face, ever. That's an invitation that they are toys to be bitten and played with. If she is laying on you and just randomly starts biting you, push her away firmly and with a sharp tone say "NO" Then no contact or say anything to her. If she continues, repeat louder "NO'. If it continues say "NO" again and put her outside the room for a bit to realize what happens when she bites. Repeat as needed.

Yeah the biting is totally normal. I was taught to yell loudly "ouch!" And back away immediately if they bite/claw you, so they get the hint that it's not ok. Also, distracting them with toys, chew toys, scratch posts, etc is essential. Cats really can't be trained like dogs. They have instincts to bite/chew/be crazy and that's normal for their healthy development. So the best thing to do is deflect and distract by way of providing ways for them to get out their craziness. Just wait, it'll only get crazier from here (I've got two 1 year olds, and I've been told they don't start to calm down til after age 2) but it's so worth it 😅

She is teething with her milk teeth and until you establish that scratching and biting is a no she will keep doing it. And that goes for everything. It doesn’t hurt it just reenforces that biting and scratching is not ok. They are amazing. She reminds me of my old cat Impatience we called him Imp. She will purr when she is ready.

@@DarlingDesi YES! ☺️And I loved every second of it! She’s so cute and you take such good care of her. 🐈‍⬛ But of course; I wouldn’t expect anything less from you, especially when it comes to animals. You’ve always been so good with animals. Such a great video - another mini film hit! You do these so well, Desiree! 👏🏻

Binx is so very adorable & precious 🖤 I loved the end bits with her helping you carve your pumpkin & taking her for a walk outside 🍁 You could tell how much she loved that! A newer subscriber here 😌 Love your content it’s always very inspiring
