- Shay and Michael were on a walk when they saw a big bee just walking on the side of the road. On their way back they saw her again, so they picked her up and realized she didn't have any wings! They named her Ruby and took her home to make sure she would be safe while she got stronger. While there, she became best friends with their cat, Pyro!
Special thanks to Shay for sharing Ruby Tuesday's story with us! Keep up with Pyro on Instagram: thedo.do/phonopony.

That bee could've had a very short and difficult life, most likely alone and without the mobility to survive on her own. But you gave her the best life she could possibly have had. For you, it was a month of your time, for her it was her whole life by your side.
That's deep.
:)
And yep
That made me wanna cry so sweet N great way to put it that's so beautiful 😢
Why’d you have to make me cry!!!
I never thought you could be this close to a bug, especially a bee! Ruby is such a sweetheart may she forever be dancing with flowers in the heavens!!
whiy did you thinked dat beas goed too hevan you plonker . ,., dat is so stupide you fole. .,. , . gr i am soo cranky rite now is dat rite . ,.? ,
bumble bees let themselves be pet occasionally. you can reach out and rub on them while they're feeding. or maybe i'm a bee whisperer....
I've held a nice fuzzy bumblebee as a kid and it let me pet it.
Then it stung my brother.
@@BorksmithandTheBeef I was wondering don't they sting. Yup>🐝
@@uhohspaghettios3801 aww that’s actually kinda sweet and I’m kinda scared of spiders lol. Jumping spiders are cute though. Lots of love to you and your spiders ❤️
I think this is the true purpose of human beings: Using our inteligence and empathy to be keepers, guardians and caretakers of nature
well said
beekeepers ehehehe
Part of it anyways.
That's what the word husband means. Very beautiful story.
I agree. Our dexterity can get many animals out of bad situations like having fallen in puts, getting stuck in fences, Sheep being stuck lying on their backs and deer getting stuck trying to cross frozen lakes. So many hopeless situations that people can get animals out of.
The coolest part of that story is that YOU NOTICED she didn’t have wings. How rare is that?
She pulled them off.
@@philosoraptor777 oh damn really?? how do u know
@@philosoraptor777 why
kids pull them off, i seen a lot of kids on bees violence growing up. i'm scarred.
@@paultimson6674 Bro maybe that bee last his wings on a battle agains things that attacket the hive maybe it lost is as a hero. After thinking yea ur right
“I wanted to put her around other bees so she wouldn’t forget her native tongue” 😭 So flipping wholesome
So cute 😭
Bees, ants and other insects communicate by scent, sadly not by the involuntary sound their wings make. Luckily bumblebees from different hives seem not to care when they are on the same flowers but if you tried the same thing with an ant, the other ones would shred it to pieces.
lol
Say or write that in Germany and you instantly are some kind of Nazi for using the word native tongue xD
@@Sharkwedge haha ja klar
Fun fact: Insects and other arthropods absolutely have consciousness and self-awareness, albeit basic and vastly different from our own. Since it's brain and nervous system are so small signals are able to be sent and received much faster than humans can, essentially allowing this bee to perceive time in high fps slow motion. In other words, that single month meant a lifetime to that bee.
Hopefully she doesn't spot a velvet ant and want to make friends with it.
That is the dumbest statement I've ever read.
@@dc1397 Why not, what's a velvet ant?
@@cerebrummaximus3762 a hellspawn
@@cerebrummaximus3762 a wingless wasp that is also known as a cowkiller and has one of the most painful stings in the insect world, possibly in the top 5 or extremely close to it. It also has a very long stinger that can pierce through shoes from what I've heard.
Awh, what a unique life experience. Not a lot of people get to say they've had a wingless bee as a pet, this story is amazing.
435 likes no comments !??!?!?! lets fix that
Plus she has it all documented! Now that is crazy!!!
You want to hear something crazy? I rescued an ant one time. No joke. I found a single ant in my toilet. Just above the water, stuck and couldn't climb out of the slippery porcelain. I keep a clean house, so when I saw a small black object in my toilet bowl, I knew it had to be foreign. For some reason, I felt like I wanted to give the ant a chance to climb on and escape. And without hesitation, it literally jumped on my finger and crawled up. It didn't want to leave. I gently placed it on the ground and it didn't want to leave! I gently brushed it off and it hesitantly went about its way, but maybe I should have adopted it!
Thank you for saving her. And THIS is what is meant by “we have dominion over animals”. We aren’t better than them. We take care of them.
But do you eat them though?
Absolutely!
Rubbish. We are all animals, and we have no dominion over anthing else. Just try to go up to a tiger and tell it that you are it's master and see what happens.
It is nice to think that way and it is very beneficial, however, the truth is that we are just other animals that evolved on this planet using what tools and instincts we have to survive. Would be nice to have a higher purpose but in the end we are just fertilizer for future life.
@@rodneybever9583 your consciousness is about the size of a pea.
First of all, THANK YOU FOR SAVING THIS PRECIOUS BEE!!!! So much compassion which every animal deserves! I recently rescued a bumblebee this summer(our house is made of cedar and they love to carve holes in the wood for their homes which we don’t mind-afterall we are ruining the land which they need to live on) who was not quite an adult. She couldn’t fly as well because of perhaps a deformity as she had no wings? Will never know for certain why however I can tell you I sure did take care of her everyday-she had her flowers and sugar water. While I knew in my heart she wouldn’t live as long as she would in the wild with her wings I at least know she lived longer than she would had I not helped her. She was very lethargic and not doing well when I rescued her so when she became the same way 18 days later I knew it was her time to go. She passed peacefully in her little home right after I put her there. While I normally put them back in their home/hole, this one did not go back in so I didn’t force it as I didn’t want to chance her falling out for a second time. Love from my home to yours-Katie
Aww that’s so beautiful, Katie. Bless your heart 💛
Thank you for being a "bee"uitiful person 🐝
Thank you 👌💙
Thank you I rescued a bee once to it was the same month as national bee day is it🐝🍯
Those are carpenter bees not bumble bees. They do look very similar.
After seeing SO MANY different relationships to the animal world, I have come to the conclusion that fear of the unknown makes you do stupid stuff. But when love and caring is shown a true heart felt relationship can take place, with ANY living thing!
Beautifully said ❤
Well said!
Now if only I like rats and snakes
Go make friends with a tiger and see how that plays out
These hippy comments are making me laugh, go make friends with a wild predator and see how that works out :P
Fun fact: bees do have a memory span (of 3 days, I think) and can recognize faces. So she did in fact recognize her humans and could differentiate them from others. She had the best life possible in the situation she was found in. I am very proud of these people 😊
Am I really crying right now because of a bumblebee??? This story is precious, and it’s wonderful to see people who value life on all scales to such an extent!
Bumblebees are adorable
Yes, yes you are
This whole entire thing is absolutely INSANE! The wingless wandering bee, the cat, the time consuming care, the relationship that was built, I mean EVERYTHING about this makes this by far one of the coolest science experiment turned social experiment I've ever seen. IT'S AMAZING!!
See, i know this is something not enough people know about.
Every other living being, look very different from us, and so their brain and everything else about them works very different than we are familiar with, and we are not able to really imagine how they really work or think...
But that does not mean that they are not intelligent at all, in fact within the last 5-10 years we REALLY have been seeing things that are so intelligently profound from all sorts of living beings behaviour, that scientists are now trying to figure out what it really is, and really means to be intelligent.
You should look up Underwater spider on youtube to see how a spider eats his food underwater in a pocket of air it creates in order to stay safe from it's natural predators.
So heart-rending 🥲🥰
I live in canada
@@jaymxu No lol. Just no. Insects, arachnids, true bugs, are non sentient creatures. You CANNOT develop a bond with an animal like this. Stop spouting bullshit you have no clue about.
This was just so precious and special. People overlook that insects also have important roles in our lives and that they all have emotions as we do. They become afraid, happy, and sad, they feel joy and become emotionally attached just as people do. Most importantly they are capable of love. My daughter loves life in every form and has a such deep respect for all living creatures and plants. We've had Wolf Spiders as pets that had free reign of our house, they drank from the dog bowls and hunted for their food to eat in the home, and they chose to stay inside with us. We had a huge female and she had no fear of any of us, including our dogs and cat. When she finally died she came out from the hole in the wall she dug out for her house, laid herself across my daughters' feet, and passed away peacefully. She lived a full life, had babies for the next generation, and lived very well and safely in our home for a little more than 2 years. For our family it was a very special time, the bond we had with her was as precious as any of our other pets. When I see videos like this one it makes my heart so joyful. We are bridging a gap we've never considered before. To have this kind of special and deep bond with a Bubble Bee is truly remarkable. Bubbles are so sweet.
Wow!!! A wolf spider!!! Nice!!! 😍
i love this story so much...but it also gives me the heebie jeebies, ha!
You raised your daughter right. To have respect for all creatures and all forms of life is beautiful and is the idealistic example of being human.
Cool but ain't no way I'm doing that lol, I'm afraid of spiders and bees and other creepy crawlies x.x
All life matters. Not the purpose of creatures. What do we contribute btw?
My daughter has pet beetles. One passed away last night. I showed her this video, and she became a bit teary-eyed again, but it was also nice for her to see other people caring about and caring for insects like she does. This was a nice reminder for her that, just like Ruby, her little Eddie had a comfortable, safe life.
I didn’t cry and Ruby but hearing your daughters connection with her little Eddie got to me 🥹 I hope she keeps her passion for insects and becomes an entomologist 🫶🏽
Brought tears to my eyes. Thankyou for something good in this world.
agreed. thank you chris
I was near crying too
Me too truly beautiful at least she got to experience that .
If someone had come to me this morning when I woke up and told me that by the evening I would be crying over a wingless bumblebee, I would have laughed and thought it was a fever dream. Thank you for giving Ruby a lifetime of love and care 💛🖤🤍 the world needs more people like you guys!
right!!! *passes the tissue box* right there with you. loved every min of it
That's why your life is condemned
There will be a day you will regret what you said
And love one's will disappear from your love
Until you realise what life is offering you
As you think nothing but yourself at moment
Please read chapter 10 of the bible then focus where you are
And I will show you another path
Even without wings she had a perfect life. All she knew was your love and care and commitment.
Also crying. The most unique story. The bee had a full life thanks to her. The cat was also amazing.
): ❤
You gave not only her life back after loosing her wings but you gave her a new experience that other bees don't usually get to experience
Such a wonderful couple to help this miracle of nature. Not many people would see the worth, or beauty, in a wingless bee but I am sure glad that she happened across the path of these caring folks. Thank you for helping her, what a heroic thing to do. RIP: Ruby, you were the best!
How so very true 🤗😎

They removed the wings themself to tell this "wholesome" story.

I care for bumbles too 💗🤍💗 our garden has tons of flowers specifically for bees and butterflies. We'd get a lot of tired bumbles that needed some warmth and sugar water. I'd pick them up, warm them in my hands and feed them a little bit of sugar water and some flowers. They all seemed to enjoy being petted too! The longest I cared for one was 3 days. I love every single one of them and always cried when one passed away. I'd bury them in a matchbox with a little flower in under the apple tree. It's the only thing I like about summer, caring for and loving each fluff butt that needs a rest.
Awe I care for them too when I see them struggling n then when they pass I Bury them under flowery shrubs!😁✌️
Wow
I catch them every summer and keep them as pets. When there are a lot of them together they give off a sweet scent like a bouquet of flowers 💐
This bee, this woman, this cat, that home with SO much genuine pure love and acceptance! This is how it SHOULD be, how we ALL should be! ❤️⭐⭐❤️
Really wanted to thank you for giving Ruby so much love during her brief time on this planet! Sounds like she returned it threefold! Made me cry! ❤🐝❤🐝❤🐝❤
Or... you could say, she returned it beefold? 🐝❤

She lived her best life in those 32 days thanks to those lovely people. What a precious little bee.🐝🧡
Soft touches of humanity. One of many splendors of life. The care, the love. Thank you for the care you put into the beautiful living creature
Bumblebees are so cute, they dont sting you even if you pat their abdomen. Its not even painful when they sting. Its like 2 times the pain. Also bumblebees live for a month and this little guy sure had a wonderful life
When I can't stand the world, I watch a Dodo video and it makes me feel better. I love that there these incredible people like Shay and Michael on the planet that care for every living thing, whether it be a dog, cat, lizard, racoon and even a sweet Bumblebee named Ruby. May Ruby be once again buzzing away over the Rainbow Bridge.
That cat was sweet, too. If a cat wouldn't eat a defenseless and wingless bumblebee, I would think it would be because it is afraid of getting stung. But no. This one cared.
I do the same (guess I’m not the only one 😊
Bumbles are very humble, and if your gentle with any critter they won’t hurt you, (except the wasps, they’re angry all the time)
"When I can't stand the world, I watch a Dodo video and it makes me feel better."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
EXACTLY! I feel the exact same way! The world is a horrible place sometimes. We can't seem to come together unless there's some sort of tragedy that happens... < I'm thankful we can at least come together during those times! So when I need an emotional lift, Dodo is the place to go. 😘😍
Bro looks like a spider
This is so beautiful. Many people doesn’t realize that insects can have personalities and be so caring.
They don't have a personality.
@@YutaBLv nor do they actually have a real brain that can understand stuff.
@@i_love_carrot_cake Ants, which are in the same family as Bees and wasps can recognize themselves in the mirror. Bees have been shown to be able to count, and communicate with other bees via sign language.
@@YutaBLv bugs have personalities there just hard to spot cause all bugs are disgusting
@@hiderirender6904 the combination of characteristics or qualities that form an individual's distinctive character. Bugs do what instinct tells them to do, it's survival not personality.
A simple act of kindness may go unnoticed in our world but to me you're doing some of the most important work on this planet. Please keep it up, my wife and I love you for this.
you gave that beautiful bumble a whole lifespan, and what seemed to be an enjoyable one if that is possible for an insect.
Well done!
I've always liked bumble bees. Not sure why I like them so much more than other bees/hornets/wasps. They generally seem to have a gentle demeanor compared to the others.
I was thinking the same thing 💛
That's because bumblebees aren't out for blood lol
Totally. I have a fear of bees/wasps/etc, but bumble bees were always okay in my book. I recently had a funeral for an elderly bumble bee. They seem like very gentle peaceful creatures. Sad that their lifespan is so short. RIP to every flower fairy🌺
Bumble Bees look cute & pretty with a chubby look & bright velvet color contrasting with the dark brown or black.
@@chai_lattes
Do you want to relax when around beers, so they will be relaxed. If they think somethings up, that’s when they sting. They aren’t mean, it’s just in their nature as a defense mechanism.
Ok, I'm officially blown away! Never would I have ever imagined a bond could form between a human and a bumble bee! You got some great footage of her that you can cherish and share and she will be a part of Internet lore probably forever :)
I mean, it kind of is nonsense to be fair. As Jeff Winger once said: humans can freaking emphasize with pencils, socks, and even beer cans if you crumple them just the right way. It's still made up in our mind, just about any animal out there has intrinsic motivation to stay around big mammals with food wastes or actively dishing out treats.
Watch Bee Movie :p
When I was younger, I bonded with a jumping spider. She was always on my hand, I loved taking her around and she was so curious about the world she was experiencing. Plus, she loved when I brought her to potential hunting grounds and she always came back to me after an hour or so. She passed away a few weeks later for eating a ladybug I think, their blood is poisonous.

@@theonefrancis696 Yep, even other spiders! I have actuallly made one of those big dark European House-spiders my pet and never kept it in captivity, started feeding it every single evening at 8PM, and it started showing up every single evening at 8PM near the same location, if i didn't exactly stand where i should have been (to test it) it would start looking for me, and always stand a good 4ft away from me on the wall or ceiling and stare at me from that distance and waited until i fed it, i named it Fred.
In winter it would go to sleep above my bed on the ceiling, so that it would feel my body head going directly up against him and keep him warm, it would keep insects away, and never caused any issued, one day he just vanished, and never ever saw him again nor any other spider, presumably maybe his children would be around but nope.
And i figured out this is even possible with ants, i am not joking. And this made me a very very smart and aware person today, literally EVERY living being is intelligent. In their own way but it's definitely there!
Nothing in this whole world makes my heart hurt and tears come uncontrollable then to see a creature hurt or pass away. Nothing!
what about if rapist murderer passed away...vile creature yet still a creature
What an exotic life she led with you, dining on nectars, meeting "aliens" like the curious cat, but, best of all, feeling loved and respected in a family of her own.
Just think and be happy that,
For you it was a "mere" month. But for her it was her entire life she spent with you.
You literally made her life as beautiful as it could become.
Thats just amazing.
That's really a beautiful, comforting way to think about it. Not just with Ruby but with all animals that pass before us. We may have more life to live but for them, it's like we spent forever together 💞

I didn't know their lifespan was so short! I got worried after u mentioned it then when u said she didn't buzz that morning I knew her end was coming & when u said she passed away I started balling, I'm still crying😭 I can't imagine how u guys felt! Sorry for ur loss & thank you for loving her & making her life great even without wings!! Fly high sweetie!!♥️🐝
The way she used the past tense made me suspect the ending would be sad.
Most bees only have a six week lifespan- some male orchard bees only live 2 weeks. Male bees can’t sting. I didn’t notice this bee gathering pollen so I’m wondering if it was a male bee. Not sure, but females bumbles do the essential pollen gathering and put it in their corbicula, which are special hairs on their hind legs that make them look like they have yellow saddlebags. Just some info.

Bees are such amazing creatures. Very happy to see that you cared for this wingless bee and got to spent 32 wonderful days together!
Such compassion for a little bumblebees it's wonderful. Ruby absolutely knew you were her angel. You gave Ruby a full life and you got to give her lot and lots of flowers and she got to be a bumblebee because of you. If Ruby could talk I know she would have said thank you.
She didn't want her to forget her native tongue omg 🥺💗

Such a sweet story ❤️ When I was a teen I came across a pigeon that had froze to the ground. I warmed the ground beneath it to free it from the ice. I brought it home to care for but unfortunately it didn't make it through the night and my dad took it to the vet for cremation. Even though she didn't make it I am glad she passed warm in a blanket by my side and not frozen alone in the street.
Oh my god 😭😭
Many years ago at the pond near our village there was a young swan frozen in the ice. It was so young it still had its greyish brown feathers and apparently couldn't even fly yet and was left there. Before that my mother and some other people always fed it so it would survive through the winter. It's mostly a farmer village so there's enough food suitable for ducks and chicken around which the swan got as well. Then one day it apparently had broken into the ice on the pond, couldn't get out anymore and the hole froze close again. The fire brigade could rescue it though and after it was nursed back to health they let it free on a river at the next town over where the few swans of the area usually stay during winter.
Each year a swan couple returns to the pond to breed. I don't know how long swans live but it could be possible that one of them is still our swan, or maybe one of its offsprings.
@@Grey_Warden_Invasion They can live 20-30 years, so very possible it's still around
This shows there is kindness in this world
I’m glad people care about insects and arachnids and all other animals like me😊
Rest In Peace Ruby😢
That was so sweet. Made me cry. I wish you had more time with her
How incredibly special. What are the odds that this precious wingless bumblebee would be connected to just the person who could help him - and did help him in the most perfect way. Thank you so much.

Thank you for "bee"ing so wonderful and compassionate! I have developed a greater appreciation for bumblebees after learning about their short lifespan. Thank you.
They're so smart and they know when ppl are trying to help.
So true!! Many people are to scared they'll be stung to help a bee (and don't get me wrong, it is a worry, since the result would be the bee dying if it did sting) but honestly they usually seem to know when we're trying to help them...I've gently tapped a bumble on the butt before to get it to walk into my other hand or onto a leaf to transport it somewhere safe and give it sugar water, and wasn't stung.
What a wonderful story, I am glad you took care of Ruby and gave her a good life.
She looked a very happy bee!
You gave her comfort in her lifetime of danger. That’s more than anyone could ever do for such a sensitive animal.

Makes one wonder on how that bumblebee end up without wings when those lovely humans found her. She was just glad to spend her whole life to someone who looked after her even without the wings. It also makes us humans happy to see how the cat would be gentle and chill around her. What a lovely story to be shared
There's a disease transmitted by an invasive species in the US that affects native species pollinators by stunting their wings, and making them deformed. If you look very closely, you can just makes out the tiny bits of wings. That invasive species is known as the honey bee.
She may have been an old queen who lost the fight and had her wings removed by her rival and tossed out of the nest.
@@39Bosski that's a thing?! Thought maybe it was a mutation
Mostly likely she has Deformed Wing Virus
@@39Bosski Queen Bees lose their wings after they mate because they feed their wings to whichever bee they mate with.
OMG - This is amazing. I love Bumble Bees. I have seen them so tired that the have a wee nap in the flower with their butts sticking up. Such an amazing insect.
This is the second story that I’ve seen of someone looking after a wingless bee. And both stories are just as heartwarming as each other. Ruby was very lucky and happy right to the end. I couldn’t imagine her being safer and more loved anywhere else. Beautiful story!
So, so incredible - what a gift you were to each other.
My heart broke when Ruby had passed away! 😭 Rest in eternal paradise beautiful!
This was the best thing I have seen in a while. Ya got me bawling over how good they were to a bumble bee. God I love the wee creatures, makes me feel good to see em treated well.
Caring for a life, no matter how small, is always a beautiful thing. Thank you for your story and I am so sorry for your loss.💔🤗💕❤️🩹
You are an amazing person!!, to have noticed Ruby’s needs from the very beginning takes so much intuition.
Good for you, perhaps there was something you needed to learn and Ruby was placed there to help you learn. God bless your kindness!!. 🙏🏼❤️
It shows that even a little 🐝 can have an amazing impact on human lives.
I bet along with her teaching you, you researched a lot about her.
You gave her the best life because we both know she wouldn't have survived without your intervention.
She loved you so much that she stayed around beyond her life expectancy.
She was the queen bee ❤️ 🐝 🌼
This story brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for being such a compassionate person. This world needs more people like you.
Thank you for caring for the smallest and weakest of creatures, and loving her! Animals just know, and they feel love too.
Well although that bees life was short and rough due to its inability to fly I'm sure that it lived a happy life, because of how much it was cared for and loved truly amazing how even a bee can become a friend especially in today's world. Ruby will be missed but she will never "Bee" forgotten 🐝
animals are so much better than most people these days.. even insects
Aww this is so beautiful! BEEautiful, I guess you could say. She’s so sweet. Ruby Could tell You Have a Beautiful Bright Blooming soul. BEE Blessed 💛Pollinate Kindess and Love everyone!
Bless her heart, this is jus precious
I’m speechless…and crying. This is beautiful ❤
hehe they are playful to, there are few videos showing them play with tiny balls and willingly seeking the balls to play, without a reward
I wonder how it lost its wings. What a great bee mom.
Most likely from the Deformed Wing Virus. I saw a video about a bumblebee with it when another lady and her son were taking care of the bee they found and an expert said that's most likely what the bee had. It's sad. :(
@@astucity It seems to be an odd trend.
@@mebreevee1997 Yeah. :( I don't know where or when the virus originated from.
@@astucity After some research it appears its a virus transmitted in the pupae state by mites that are vectors of the virus. Its a known cause of colony collapse disorder because the mites continue to cause the virus until the whole colony dies. Its fascinating.
Can it still sting?
God bless them for taking care of Ruby the wingless bumblebee for her short life with love and care 🥺❤️🙏🏻
Wow!!!! You guys lived the real life bee movie. Movies are real 🐝🐝🐝❤❤❤thank you for taking care of Ruby. She meet love and kindness and got to enjoy her bee life everyday. Much love and gratitude 🙏
my faith in humanity just went up a little bit...thank you for showing us this sweet little bee and for taking care of them for as long as you did.
I don't know exactly what I expected with a Dodo insect story, but I didn't expect to cry at the end... lovely
