This episode is what you've all been asking for and I'm super, super excited about -
Pet Hacks.
So a common problem that most pet owners have
is actually getting their fur absolutely everywhere.
On their clothes, on the bed, on the sofa...
It just goes everywhere.
So I'm going to show you a really simple solution
of how to get rid of it if you don't have a lint roller.
I have Pepper with me right now,
and she is incredibly shy.
She just doesn't want to see anybody so she's hiding in my legs.
This is Pepper.
How cute is she!
Oh it's okay, sweetie.
Aww... isn't she adorable? She's so tiny!
I'm gonna put her down because she's very, very shy
and she just kind of wants to hide...
In little hidey cubby places.
So... that's the most cutest thing, look at her.
I can't concentrate.
This is like the best episode ever.
I want to do animal episodes all the time.
Anyway so I'm gonna get to the hack and show you what to do.
So as you can see, I have a lot of fur on my top right here
and I'm gonna show you a really cool hack to get rid of it if you don't have a lint roller.
I've got hair all over my nose too now.
This, my friends, is just a rubber glove
and it's just as simple as wiping the fur off with the glove
and so what that does it actually grips all the hair onto the glove
and then there you have it!
As you can see, it's all around this area,
just pick it off.
And it's just as simple as that.
It's probably easier to do a more thorough job
when you don't have a very scared cat in your lap, okay?
So you can go outside and just,
you don't even have to pick it off,
you can just brush it right off.
Now if your pets don't like to be brushed,
a simple solution to get rid of the hair is a lint roller.
Just roll the lint roller like this
and this is a nice gentle way to get rid of some of the hair on your pets.
Oh, you like your tummy done. Okay?
You've got no hair on your tummy.
It's not gonna be completely thorough
but if your pet doesn't like to be brushed, give it a shot.
So this works better with short hair pets.
Now I have my top model Ace with me
and he has long hair so...
I mean it works kind of for him that but
better for short hair pets, not as great for long hair pets.
And my model has had enough.
He's being a diva.
Okay, so if you're having a bit of an ant problem
and they're starting to get into your pets food,
a really quick solution is to just get a tray,
put some water in it
and simply get your pet food
and put it in the tray just like that.
This way the ants can't get to the food.
They're gonna have to drown before they get to it.
You want some food?
We've put some catnip in there so that they can eat it
but I think they're too scared.
So this is Ginger.
Look at everybody!
Like I said a sweet spot...
Yes.
So this works for both cats and dogs
or any other animals that have yummy food that the ants want to eat.
It just works for all.
So this one is for all of us who have big dogs or, any dogs, really,
and they need to tie the leash to...
Something solid so that they don't run away.
Come here boy! Come here boy!
Here you go...
All right. You sit down and be a good boy.
So all you need is actually just a heavy-duty carabiner.
It's got to be able to hold the dog's weight okay?
So all I'm gonna do is I'm gonna thread the carabiner through the leash like this.
Thread the leash around what I want to tie him to
and then simply...
There you have it!
It is really easy so this way, he's not gonna go away.
Uh. Sorry!
I'm sorry!
It's as simple as that.
Hey Ace, come here boy.
Keeping your cats active is an important part of keeping them healthy.
To do so, you can actually create little toys for them.
No, don't keep walking, just sit in my lap!
There you go...
I'm so distracted with the cats,
I've like... cats. Anyway, so -
Okay Ginger's gone off because he's really camera-shy.
So I'm gonna go ahead,
I'm gonna make a little toy for the cats to play with.
So all I have here is a toilet roll.
I'm gonna fold in the edges just like that.
And the same thing on the other side, very, very easy to do.
Next step, you just have to cut some holes big enough
so that the food can drop through the holes.
It's gonna look something like this.
I'm gonna fill it with cat food.
Fold up the other end, just like that.
And then this creates... a little cat toy.
The cat food will drop out of the cat toy
and what that actually does, it rewards the cat.
So it encourages them to play with the toy even more.
So that's how you keep your cat active.
Here's a cheap and easy way to make a toy for your dog.
All you need is an empty water bottle,
put some dry pet food inside there,
grab an old sock,
put the bottle inside the sock like this.
Tie a knot at the end, and that's all there is to it.
So dogs are gonna absolutely love the noise it makes
and like any dog toy replace it once it gets too destroyed
because if they start chomping on the plastic,
there might be some sharp edges.
Yeah ready?
Go get it!
Get it!
Okay you ready? Get it!
So as you can see, Ace really loves the crackling noise it makes.
I am so out of breath right now.
I cannot breathe!
So you see? Dogs love it.
And it didn't cost anything.
So some pet owners would find it really hard to -
Sit. Good boy. Okay.
So some pet owners will find it really hard to give them pets medication.
Now, a lot of people will hide it in their food,
but the cats or dogs will eat around the food,
others may not even want to touch the food.
Next time try this -
Lift his head back and open his mouth
then drop the pills down his throat.
Keep his chin lifted because it's a dog's natural reflex to swallow.
So once he's got it in his mouth you can stroke under his chin
to make it go down a lot easier.
Now this tip came from Ace's vet.
It is not cruel for the animals especially if it's going to help them get healthy. Right?
Sadly, we've come to the end of this amazing episode.
I wish it never ended because I love animals.
