Of course it needed to be ham pink, Joob is a classy lady

Smoke alarm tip: use compressed air and blow them out once or twice a year to prevent false alarms from dust buildup. My whole house went off multiple times at 3am one night. I cleaned them the next day and no issues since. Hope that helps!

I love how the channel has turned into like at least 50 percent "making things for my cat". It's glorious.

13:41 the “yeah I married this goofball” face that Katelyn makes: precious

If you want to holesaw through thick material more quickly, after running it backwards, drill a few holes with a normal bit(or the pilot bit) around the inside perimeter of your hole. This will significantly aid in 'chip clearing', which typically eliminates overheating and speeds up the *hole* process. Sawdust buildup is a significant part of why cutting through a board that's twice as thick as another, takes more than twice as long.

Something not emphasized enough is how greatly you improved the cable management for the cat fountain! Having the cable completely hidden and the plug blocked away looks so much cleaner!

[aprilrichards]

Might be the saw dust setting off the fire alarm. A good system picks up various particulates.

[KeyushTheStuntDog]

It looks so cute! If my husky didn't need such a huge bowl I'd try making something similar for him!

[emmetthowell]

The editing in this video is superb, and just in general the editing has gotten more dynamic and complex but not overdone. Plus the comedic timing and scenes and transitions are just *chefs kiss* honestly katelyn is so dang talented

[jordyv.]

I love how your first priority was turning off the alarm and not actually looking for potential fires!

[sheenatalks]

This looks incredible!!! Only thing is add is some waterproof caulk between the food shelf and acrylic so no tiny bits of food/water get stuck in that tiny crack. I want one for my kitty now!! 😻

[haileywold]

3:52 The fact that no one is talking about how funny this transition is- Everything about it is perfect lmao

[bestdkskillzyo]

Your content thrives in this "custom build for our specific needs" space. You just do it so damn well.

Pro cat tip: cats tend to avoid drinking still water from too near their food evolutionarily bc of the risk of rotting food in the water getting them ill. The fountain might be fine but that bowl of water next to the food might be avoided

[snakewithapen]

As a fish and reptile enthusiast I am sketched out by the petsmart sponsorship lol, they don't treat their small pets very well. But I'm sure they probably do have good stuff for cats. Congrats on getting that bag from such a major company though guys!

[itzelissatho]

Not only are they great at creating stuff...

They are also great at creating dramatic, funny scenes

[kayteesmiles]

I live how joobie looks up likes she's reading the sign. Definitely supurrvisor approved!

The whole alarm happened to me and my hubby one night about 2am. We ended up having to disconnect the alarms all of them because they were hard wired. Turned out we had a short in one (couldn’t find it) and had to replace the whole lot. I feel for you guys. It was a horrible night. The dogs (3) didn’t like it much either. Love the table, it’s so cute! Glad Joob likes it.

You can just tell that they spoil joob just the right amount, and she deserves it. We love the little Joob Café (trademark)❤️
