Jaidens Future Child : Hey mother,I would be most appreciative if you would allow me to have godzilla. Jaiden : *ok*

"Maybe if we shape these fishes into a dog she won't notice-" -Jaiden's Mom maybe around her 30s

Lol,I work in a pet store and young Jaiden and her cousin sound like the perfect excited pet parents. Although I love my job and educating others on care,sometimes throwing in fun facts for some extra wonder...I wish more people would be as enthusiastic about researching new little buddies. Pets are a big responsibility and some are better fits than others. Trust me when I say we remember the families that did prior research because its always the most exciting experience helping a pet go home to a prepared family and seeing the excitement on the new owner's faces.

Jaiden: ''Hopefully when I have kids they won't be as animal obsessed as I am.'' Jaiden's son: ''Mom can we get 3 huskies and a horse. Jaiden's daughter: ''Oh, oh, and a 10 foot snake, please.'' Jaiden: ''... Okay.''😐🙃

Parents: how many animals do you want? Jaiden: Y. E. S.

“How many fish must die until I get what I want?” -Jaiden 2019

The Homestar Runner birds deserve more respect than they're getting. Very fun.

This video has helped me smile on so many occasions, when everybody is just kicking down. I just feel Jaiden's energy thought the video when she is talking about not being able to say no to a Komodo Dragon and that connects. Feels like I have a friend. Thankyou 🤗

"Not only to find NO MOUSE, *but a computer mouse"* WOW... *NICE ONE MOM* 😎👌🏼

If i could, i would just have a Zoo in my house, but you know, responsabilities, money. And my parents.

Jaiden's future husband:HONEY YOU GOT OUR KIDS A PET TIGER!?

im rewatching this in 2024, AND JAIDEN HASNT GOTTEN THAT DOG 😡😡

7:20 and 7:30 the continuity of the broken computer being fixed is a nice detail. I don’t know if anyone else cares but I just thought that was cool.

Animals: *exists* Young Jaiden: _I must have it_ Jaiden's parents: *_Why do I hear boss music?_*

Omg I used to LOVE/BE OBSESSED with the Maximum Ride series by James Patterson they were my absolute favorite book series when I was in high school. I loved this video so much you’re awesome Jaiden!!❤

youre just an impulsive bean of a person and same. i love the fuzzy ones too. and your animations. they are a whole trip and completely relatable.

Can we just appreciate the comedic genius that is Jaiden's mom? That computer mouse gift is peak humor. I aspire to be as cool as her

Jaiden: “I want a mouse for Christmas.” Her mom: *Gets her a computer mouse* What a legend.

i had an obsession with birds, too starting when i was 10 (i'm 16 now). my mom was afraid of birds so it took a while but my parents have always had a rule if like me or my brother want a specific pet: we're responsible for the research. like our parents will pay for it and help with costs or whatever but we have to know the specifics of what animal we have. and now i have two conures named maverick (green cheek) and nugget (sun cheeked)

At 3:09 jaiden says that she had read the Maximum Ride series, and because of that I now love that book series, so thank you Jaiden! You indirectly got me into another book fandom.

“is it worth it?” “No, it’s a dumb animal” *- my parents when I was born*

Jaiden: *Forgets to feed fish* Fish: OH FISH FRICK

After finishing almost all of the “let me explain studios” vids this is my next go to, I LUVE THIS CHANNEL

5:32 Them calculating the ongoing costs of maintaining pets and looking at each other like "Yeesh" is so real.

"How many fish must die before I get what I want" -Jaiden

I honestly went through something similar. It started with cats, which did end up happening when two strays followed us home from a walk. Unfortunately one died about a year into having them. But the other one lived throughout my teenage years into my early adulthood. I miss that cat ;;. After my cat phase came the horse phase.. Yeah I really wanted a horse for a good couple years and I had so many books on how to care for them. Then I went through a bird phase that also lasted a few years, books, KZfaq videos, even went to a class on how to care for them! My current desire and the one that's lasted the longest is snakes. When my wife and I get our own house I'm going to adopt a snake. I love reptiles and snakes are my favorite animals!

This is my first time watching this video since I've been able to really relate to Jaiden and her experience with getting Ari. For about 23 years, ever since I knew what the creature was, I've always wanted a dog. I would never be able to get one because my father would have nothing but excuses to delay that decision and my mum had a cat. But a couple months ago, my dream finally came true and I have my puppy! Her name is Flopz and she's the best puppy I could've ever asked for!!

Jaiden: I want a dog Jaidens parents: _did you say a fish_

Jaiden: wants a pet mouse Jaidens mum: gets a computer mouse *well yes but actually no*

I remember I used to have 2 beta fish at the age of 10 and sometimes I would forget to feed them. The cool thing is my sister or dad would feed them for me when I forgot. one day I saw one of the fish had eyes that were foggy, and I got a plastic spoon and scooped her up and she didn't move. Eventually I figured out she was dead (by the way both of the fish were girls, and their names were sunset and scarlet) and I told my dad, so he buried her (sunset was the dead one). When scarlet died her eyes were foggy too and instead of burring her, I flushed her down the toilet and I miss them. (sorry this comment is so long)

I know the time this video came out but I just rewatched it and saw the end about how your parents were responsible and didn’t give you any pets just because you asked for one. And it immediately reminded me of my grandma. My household is big, but not huge. We have pets but their manageable. I personally, am glad my mother didn’t as I had the exact same phase but it was load more different. (I was obsessed with all things reptiles and amphibians but I’ve grown and I’ve learned how to not be so obsessed but I still love them) and since my grandma moved in. Guess who got my little brother two bunnies and a frog in the last year just because he asked for one?

You better not get obsessed with bigfoots, I'm sick of people going in my woods to look for me.

Are we not going to talk about the "my disappointment is immeasurable" meme at 3:00

Outta you, Odd1sout, and SomethingElseYT, you gotta be the funniest! Revisiting these older videos of yours, I laughed WAY more than I remembered!

I've been living with cats my entire life, and for most of my childhood, also chickens. We had chickens in our backyard/huge garden, and though we had a small house for them and a small fenced enclosure, we'd pretty much every day let them out of the enclosure and wander around in the rest of our garden (our lot has a wall of trees surrounding our garden, a pretty clear border for our animals), and they were happy. We also tended to take some of the fertilized eggs inside the house and put under a lamp when they were about ready to hatch, so we kids could watch it happen. I remember watching "Disney Sjov" during Fridays, and suddenly hearing "Chirp! Chirp!" from the kitchen, and I'd just abandon the show and race out to watch the hatching process. And that was before pausing live TV existed, so I was willingly missing out on the rest of the program to see chicks hatching from their eggs. I'm also autistic, if that adds to anything. ;P Towards the end of my childhood, maybe when I was around 10 or 12 or so, our chickens got old and stopped laying eggs though, and we decided to not get any more, so we, uh, ate the rest and now we just have had cats. I definitely always wanna have cats in my life, even when I eventually move out from home, I want a cat, or maybe two, coz it's come to my attention that 2 cats are better than one (watch Jackson Galaxy, great explanations on cats), and I'm not against having two cats! :3 Other than cats though, I have been fantasizing about having some other, more unusual pets, like a preying mantis (one of my favorite insects, they are so cool), an ostrich (coz the eggs are like dragon eggs and I liked imagining riding a fully grown ostrich to school or work), a chicken or duck (the process of hatching an egg and then raising the chick as your child is just wholesome and amazing to me), a fox (my favorite animal, kinda like a mix between cats and dogs, tho I was sad to later learn they don't make good pets), a pig (they are very smart, I grew up watching Babe and actually really like pigs), a milksnake or a black-headed python (the first one looks like a coral snake but is harmless, the second one is just GORGEOUS, I mean look it up! and of course harmless aside from constricting and having a strong bite I guess), a mouse or rat (I just think they're cute), and some other things. I'm not a huge fan of dogs, I do think they look cute and cool and some like huskies are gorgeous, but they have too much energy and are too loud for my timid self, I prefer the chill cats that I can much better relate to, since basically all cats are autistic. Though if I ever were to get a dog, I've always thought I wanted something that looks like a wolf, like a Siberian Husky, or something that looks like a fox... not sure if there is a dog that looks like that. Maybe Shiba Inu. I like the asthetics of dogs with pointy ears, they look more natural than the ones with floppy ears, those look too "man-made", which they basically are, coz dogs have evolved alongside humans, and humans have intentionally made dogs look the way they look. Having a pet eagle would also be really cool. But I'd probably just make do with two cats, and maybe a mantis and/or a snake, perhaps a bearded dragon (they're cool too), and maybe fish. Fish are relaxing to look at. So that's my pet list for when I move out. Two cats, a preying mantis, a milksnake, a bearded dragon/monitor lizard maybe, and an aquarium with fish in it. Should be doable. >:3

Planet: Has animals Jaiden: I'll take your entire stock

Jaiden: can i have a mouse Parents: no Jaiden: can i get a parr- Parents: ABOUT THAT MOUSE

The fact I spent 7 years begging for a horse and know I have one😂👁👄👁

3:12 Jaiden, you my friend, are the reason i have so many OC’s from this series😂😂 you, are the freaking reason i love this series so much❤ i thank you for that, and love you just that much more❤

Animals: exist Jaiden: I W A N T T H A T

i used to be a HUGE horse girl.thank god i grew out of that phase.

Let’s be real, Jaiden deserves a croissant 🥐

Jaiden, there's a really good manga series called "Birdmen" that ran in Weekly Shounen Sunday. The premise is almost identical to Maximum Ride, although the stories are vastly different. It indeed is about teens who grew wings and telepathic abilities, on the run from evil scientist organization that wants to capture and experiment on them.

I used to be obsessed with giraffes. Yeah I’m glad that was a phase.

I got the references at 7:18!! The Camp Operetta mask when Jaiden was a kid, the Japanese lightbulb cup and Jaiden’s little mouse stuffy when she were a kid.

Currently, watching this as my new pet budgie kiwi is burrowing in my sweatshirts leave, and we are both very much enjoying it thanks jaiden!

It's my long lost soul twin. Our parents could have shared word for word exchanges on how our childhood years went

Fish: *exists* Jaiden: *So you have chosen death...*

I read all of the maximum ride books and I loved them, nice to meet another fan

2:30 Guys I Think Jaiden Is A Ditto.

Jaiden’s Parents: *buys 2 goldfishes* *shockingly they didn’t die within a week* Jaiden: *NANI*

Jaiden: “I’ve always been an animal lover” Also Jaiden: *Viciously pats dog*

Four years later and now with two birds

Fish are definitely a bit difficult. A couple of tips. Your first fish in your new aquarium are going to definitely have a hard time. But some methods to help are use water that is the same temp as the store, when you're carrying them home keep the bag they come in in a shopping bag and secured, it keeps the water from moving to much. When you get home keep them in the bag and put the whole bag into the aquarium. (Make sure the water isn't too high of course if it starts to get close to overflowing pull some water out and just replace it with the water in the bag) This allows the fish to adapt to the new water temperature gradually instead of getting pushed into the lukewarm water into the possibly colder water. But yeah feeding them is also important but also don't overfeed them. (One of my problems lol)

"No he's a dumb bird" Ari: Peace was never an option

Animals: exist Jaiden: gotta catch em all!

To this day, there is no update on the dog

maximum ride was such a underated novel serise i loved it so much i read it middle school 10/10 reccomend

Jaiden: **outsmarts mom by asking for a mouse for christmas** Mom: im about to do what's called a pro gamer move

3:02 *i see you're a man of culture as well*

I’ve always been obsessed with animals, we’ve always had dogs but as long as I could remember I’ve always wanted a horse, it was on my Christmas list every year and my parents knew I wanted one, I did end up getting my horse a year ago but yeah, I understand the obsession

Love your animations jaiden

f in the chat for all those fish. Rip little buddies

My gecko absolutely hates me,, every time I pick her up she tries to eat my hand

I have chinchilla, they so cute and hyper, you can have them as pets too, BIG recommend

I can’t believe this was the first Jaiden video and I was like: oh who’s this? And now: Omg this is the best KZfaqr ever!!!

Jaiden I am personally recommending you get a blue tongue potato

Jaiden: I want a mouse for Christmas Jaiden's Mom: *buys a computer mouse* Me: *slow claps*

as someone who owns two skinks i can say they are so cute and chill buggers

The fishes: dies Undyne: YEET

" How Many fish Must die Before i get What i Want?" -Jaiden 2019

Fun fact: Jaiden's bird Ari, is named after a evil mutant wolf person from the book she mentioned, Maximum Ride. :)

I'm still going through my animal obsession phase and my parents caved in and now we have a dog named Eric he's 10 years old , a cat named Colette she's around the age of 11 , and a leopard gecko named gizmo and she is 3 years old

Are you indirectly telling us at 7:18 that ari broke that really cool lightbulb cup you got from a real boring parade in Japan?

7:16 Camp Operetta mask, light bulb cup from Japan, and Raoole the rat

Who else is 3 years late😂

I'm literally cackling this is essentially me as a kid. Love my animals. I now live on a hobby farm with my mini goats, giant rabbits and an aussiedoodle named Wolfie. I'm trying to figure out how to get a chinchilla and/or an alpaca pair at some point. Also did a school project on sugar gliders...I found out what they eat though and decided I wasn't able to feed them bugs. I'm terrified of them.

Jaiden’s kids: Mom? Can I get a rhinoceros? Jaiden: **sweats nervously**

Animals: *exists* Jaidens parents: *chuckles* I’m in danger

I remember reading that raccoons combine the worst traits of a cat and a monkey. So not only can they scratch up your stuff, they can reach impossible places and then scratch up everything there.

I used to have two suger gliders, Albis and Abe, but they passed away a couple days before my birthday but they were around 7 years old so they were probablly going to die soon anyways but they lived a long and happy life.

Jaiden: HEY MOM, CAN WE GET A Jaiden's mom: *_Ah frick, here we go again_*

The reason goldfish die is because they need tons of special equipment

Who’s here after the tofu egg situation

I’m watching this at night and my brain can’t choose wether I’m tired or not because I’m super energized right now and a second ago I was so tired

Everybody gangsta till your daughter opens up and says "mom can we get a _insert pet name"_

Pet store: *exist Jaiden: *also exist Pet store: $ *stonk* $ Also, happy birthday, Jaiden!

Jaiden, when you set up a new fishtank, the tank has to sit for a long time to build up good bacteria to keep your fish alive. I usually would take my old filter pad from an already good tank, and plop that into the new tanks filter, and it would be cycled. If you don't have that option, I put a few pieces of fish food in to cause bacteria to form whi h causes good bacteria to form after. If you don't do either of these and just let the tank sit, like i did once, it took literally like 4 months to cycle. If ur parents set up that tank new to get you fish, then that's why they kept dying

I'm a 13 y/o middle school student and I can confirm I was like jaiden before middle school. I had to get over so many puppies of mine because most of them got away from me or died. I hate pets because of this and I don't want more but I would like to help them without adopting them. It's really hard to get over your pet who you loved.

Aw yes! Maximum Ride was my favorite series in middle school

when i was younger, i had two goldfish that were the colours of orange and yellow what were their names? *orange and yellow*

OMG! I probably have read the book you mentioned! I remember I read it in a book store when I was in elementary school or middle school, and it's even a translated version to Chinese!

7:47 "Hopefully when I have kids they won't be as animal obsessed as I am" Bobby in the QSMP with a lion, a bear, a dog, an army of hummingbirds, two raccoons and a beefed up kangaroo

2:55 All Parents do that :( I asked my mom for a dog in Christmas but I get a soft toy of Dog.........

_Meet Jaiden!_ The lady with an *army of dead fish*

Jaiden: I’ll get a dog Jaiden: I have another bird and cat

I love the camp opereta easter egg at the end

Jaiden: I haven't really grown out of my animal phase... Me: It's not a phase.

Another fish died. "Ah fish frick." "Fish wife, language!"

Omg wait same bc when I was in 6th grade I literally went feral for a bird and I made a presentation on where to get them, what type of enclosures they could have, etc and I also had a contract to get a bird in a few years or less and THEY SIGNED IT. but still awaiting one bc I already have fish and they take a lot of work and I can only have one pet at a time 😔
