- After a couple of dm's, I was asked to take a look and react to Gabi DeMartino's hamster care that was briefly shown in a recent video. I really think Gabi has a lot of potential to improve her current hamster's care with just a few simple changes!

Hi guys!!! I wanted to give you an update! Gabi has watched the video and has purchased 2 of the NiteAngel bigger world enclosures for each of her hamsters! They've taken notes to help improve their care so their hamsters can thrive and that is so exciting to hear! 🥰❤️
👏👏
That's great news!
That's VERY nice
👍🏻👍🏻👏
It’s great that her hamsters 🐹 are happy now
good!
Its kind of odd she wouldn't learn from her experience with the rabbit and do her research for the hamsters. Great video! I love reaction videos!!
yup
I remember when she got them she was originally housing them together but the internet freaked out and she said she wouldn't be showing them anymore
yes i remember i had my bunny in a hutch and when i watched Lennon the bunny's video about proper rabbit care i decided to move my bunny up in my room. Now he has my room my hallway and my bathroom to run and explore in. And i am very thankful for Lennon the bunny because i want my bunny to live the best life
In the old house she let the rabbits stay out of the cages
She puts on such a front with animals. Even if she doesn’t want to put in the work to set up a proper habitat for her hamsters and rabbits she can pay someone to do it for her. It’s just selfishness.
good for jenna tbh it takes a lot to just suck up your pride and listen to your audience who just wants the best for you and your animals.
Do I see a fellow horandog and directioner?
LARRY
DNF the hearts like if u understand
@@waffleyoda7840 hehe yess
@Ashley Cyril to quote louis.. oBviOuSlY
The jenna bit makes me so happy. I love how responsible she is. She was actually the person that got me interested in hamsters and their proper care. Miss her
She was such an amazing person... Gosh I miss her so much too, what a legend!
You can tell how much Jenna actually cares compared to many of the other popular channels I've come across that have pets.
who was she?
Who is she and what happened to her?
I loved the Jenna Marbles comparison. There really is no excuse for poor pet care, ESPECIALLY when it’s from an influencer who can more than well afford an upgrade or too.
Yes! You’re sooooo right
and an upgrade doesn't have to be expensive!
i still love this theory i saw once that Ad was reincarnated as our dear bunny because he didn't want to leave his actually caring owners-
This is inexcusable. After getting backlash for her bad bunny care, she gets more animals without doing any research. She could easily invest in the most amazing habitat, but decides to let her pets suffer because of ignorance and pride.
When she first got them she said that their setup was temporary and that they were going to have a bigger enclosure 😖 there’s no way she hasn’t done research after the backlash from when she first got them.
@@AyahElleOfficial Hopefully, that's not just an excuse. But still... why didn't she get the proper enclosures before getting them? Or at least get proper cage accessories, chew toys etc. It's so sad.
She has so much money and cant afford to even get her hamster even a 40g breeder for 50$.. thats sad. He even said that she hardly even goes into the room. I get you dont need to be rude to help someone but its no excuse if you have the funds but dont even wanna properly take care of your animals ): youre so right
@@awetistic5295 to my knowledge they were a surprise from her bf (now fiancé) and only got one enclosure
@@Aquadecember23 just for clarification he was talking about Niki, not Gabi which Gabi is the owner.
The thing that frustrates me a little is that she is more dedicated into creating an “enclosure” that she likes the look of more than one that will benefit the hamsters. Eg: pink tiny wheel …. 😖🥺🐹
💯% true
I looked it up and that pink wheel is actually a good option for dwarf hamsters, which are the ones she has. It's both wooden, safe, and the proper size. But I do agree with the fact that she probably only got that wheel because she liked the look of it, and likes the "minimalistic hamster enclosure look", which is really unfortunate and cruel to the hamsters.
Ikr, there is another small TH-cam like that too, she got some colourful st Patrick’s day stickers (just for aesthetics) for her hamster cage instead of getting a bigger wheel or more bedding (her bedding in the cage was less than 1 inch), this TH-camr then asked her viewers to stop suggesting to her to get a bigger cage (I think hers cage was too small) cause she “had no money” and her dresser was too small to accommodate a bigger cage but her next few vids were abt clothing hauls and a trip/vacation. Disgusting honestly, I can’t believe some people will get pets just because of “aesthetics” or to “get TH-cam views”, it’s pathetic and sickening really
What's worse is you can get a bigger enclosure and still decorate it cutesy and the way you want to ya know
The pink wheel actually wasn't a huge issue, the flying saucer on the other hand would be better to be replaced with the same type of wheel.
The sad thing is Gabi for sure has the money and the resources to give her animals a paradise yet she doesn’t . She claims to be ‘cottagecore’ or whatever but refuses proper advice with the animals she has .
she’s under zero obligation to listen to any of you actually. she’s not breaking any animal abuse laws. seems to me she’s doing what she should be doing, minding her buisness and living her life.
@@trinkaaaaaaa7561 Just because there are no laws in place since these animals are small and people are inconsiderate to their well being, doesn’t mean that this improper care doesn’t qualify as animal abuse. She doesn’t even meet the bare minimum of keeping her animals happy and healthy and yes OBVIOUSLY she is under no obligation to do so but it’s sad. Just plain sad.
@@l3yz_w0rld it’s not animal abuse you just have too much time on your hands….
@@trinkaaaaaaa7561 So sorry to tell you Tricia but the standards of most human beings are dirt . If this were a dog in a crate being fed table scraps with zero toys I feel like your views would be very different - I’d rather have ‘too much time on my hands’ than none at all .
@@trinkaaaaaaa7561 in many countries this would in fact be considered animal abuse. The minimum floor space for a hamster is significantly larger in many countries and it is considered to be animal cruelty to not have proper housing.
It's so hard to find "cute hamster videos" , mostly hamsters being terrified or getting hurt and the videos usually have millions of views and likes. So heart breaking to see 💔
I usually avoid watching hamster videos for that reason 😅
Same. I actually don't watch pet videos online because most of it is disgusting or people using pets like accessories.
Yeah. I've found 1 good video with good care on it
Rynn21 Yeah sadly. Most of these "cute pet videos" are people hurting the animals feelings or scaring the animals to get a reaction. Most "appropriate animal videos" many people find boring. I don't even look at these "cute pet videos" now
"I spoked a little to soon...🙁🙁"
I died😂😂
This kind of care is literally seen everywhere, and it is seen as fine
Its a jail cell in reality-
Right! That is the only way I can describe it: prison.
The unfortunate situation here is that she knows its too small, a video on her vlog channel from 4 years ago called 'my hamsters mansion' the pinned comment is her thanking her audience for educating her on her incorrect care, unfortunately she decided not to take the advice it would seem :/
Oh wow Gabi really needs to research proper pet care... proper research is key to getting a healthy, long lived, thriving life for any animal! Btw this is info not hate, proper care is just common decency. I love animals and offering advice so I figured I should say this. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk 😊
this is just sad that people won't give proper care for their pets :(
They should search for studies as well if they believe what people are telling them is just opinions
plus she’s so rich so it’s not like she can’t afford the proper care. even if she couldn’t afford it then she shouldn’t have gotten it
Your profile picture 🥺
2:08 Selfish is doing this! What matters to her is not what is good for the hamster, but what she likes. (example: small pink wheel)
It’s very sad, but it’s because of low intelligence. A lot of people watch her videos, yet she shows bad things in it! (This is also a problem with the poor supply of pet stores!) I don’t watch videos like this because it’s annoying the complete lack of responsibility.
Victoria, I am very grateful that from time to time you take up the fight against irresponsible and / or inappropriate pet care! You are setting a good example, which is important! You are always kind in the meantime! This is how we love you!
Facts!!
how can you comment 6 hours befire the video started?
@@waltergrove2657 they are a member and get early release x
@@littlehamham4251 ohhh
I have to agree although it is kind of mean but it's true; it seems like mindless entertainment to me. I'm very concerned for the world when our young people are finding channels like this interesting over others that are just more enriching and more full of substance. Ugh. It's very hard to take
I love how through this whole video you were extremely nice and just wanted to educate her instead of being hateful. We love that ❤️.
Thank you! I really try my best to be as kind as possible to someone especially because I know it’s hard to hear you’re doing something wrong sometimes.
@@VictoriaRaechel very true but it also hurts to see animals being in the hands of someone who doesn’t want to listen bc it could make their animals 100% more happier and satisfied.
i would also suggest not keeping a hamster cage in the window as it could heat up the cage/hamster too much and hamsters have a hard time regulating their body temp
Right
This video proves : advice doesn’t have to be given in a hateful way. Yes, some of her care wasn’t up to standard but if we hate on her the outcome won’t change. Honestly sometimes constructive criticism can come across in a rude way so I like how Victoria gave advice instead of saying what she could improve.
I love how Victoria’s trying so hard and people ignore her 😒 *its sarcasm for people who don’t know, I don’t actually love it*
I’m here because she saw this video and has tried to improve things for her hamsters! Thank you for giving advice and helping people to properly take care of their pets~~~
Anyone else love Saturdays because Victoria posts?! Love from a fellow Canadian Victoria❤️
Yes! I look forward to it all week.
🇨🇦❤️
I defo do!
me!!!!
Ditto.. me too!
That little sigh when she small how small the hamster's cages were.
I Think everyone should start tagging gabby so she eventually sees this 💗
Ah yes, reactions to pet youtubers. I hate seeing pets in such frustrating setups. Keep doing what you do!
I actually really like Gabi and I am a huge hamster lover and have one (I have taken so much of your advice to make sure mine has the best life) but when she first got the hamsters they were in the same cage 😬 several people kept telling her they couldn’t be together and she eventually separated them. I hope she sees this video and hopefully makes some positive changes. Again, I like Gabi so this isn’t bashing. We have all needed education with our hamsters at some point.
If it weren’t for Victoria I wouldn’t have given the proper care for my hamster. I applaud Victoria for continuing to educate people. Part of the problem are pet stores. I used to watch Gabi’s videos and these hamsters aren’t her first. She had a hamster when she first started youtube. It’s disappointing to see that they aren’t living their best life.
Hi there!! Bunny parent here, In the animal care community I find is so so sad that people will not educate themselves about animal care. research, research, research.. it’s so important and detriment to the care and stability of your pet so truly thank you for educating
im so glad and grateful you're here on youtube to help educate ppl who dont hv the right knowledge of hamster AND other pets care, thank u so much for educating so many ppl to improve their animal's care victoria
It’s sad how people don’t do research about the animal! Just because there tiny doesn’t mean they deserve a tiny enclosure!
Love these reaction vids! I used to watch nikki and gabi a long time ago! You are a great hamster owner! Love Sadie's cameo at the end!!!
Thank you so much for teaching everyone about how to properly take care of hamsters! My hamster had just recently passed away but I’m so glad that I knew how to take care of him properly. Thank you so much 😊
you have helped me take better care of my hamster and he is soooo much happier. thank you so much!!
I watched Gabi’s video and I was hoping someone would address this. Having improper rabbit and hamster care is bad if u didn’t know any better or u couldn’t afford to upgrade. She is well off and Lennon The Bunny had already given her advice. She has a whole room for her rabbits but still keeps them in the cage. The wire bottom flooring tho 😔 When the average person has bad pet care it’s better than influencers as the influence r giving an example to others of what they should do. Great video, Victoria 😃 💕
Yes thank you!!!! I'm so happy you did this! She has the resources to give these little guys a great home! Hopefully, she takes your advice!
I just love how nice you were through this video❤️ Btw I love all your videos, you teached me so much about hamster and now I have a much better care then before! I have an Ikea linnmon cage now :) Really you make my days better!!
as a bun mom im still traumatized from her bunny care and now she still doesnt do research on these hamsters😭
It truly does annoy me when big influencers get a pet and give it improper care because they have the ability to give that pet what many wish they could! Small pets aren't things you can just dispose of, they're living beings and deserve the same amount of attention and love as any other pet does. Some even require more than a dog or cat! Finding research is incredibly easy nowadays and you can learn so much in just a couple of days honestly. I really do hope they learn and fix their mistakes :( She did improve A LOT for her bunnies but the wire-bottom enclosure is probably one of the only issues I was able to see.. I'm sure she does love her pets, it's just that she wasn't provided the proper information! And that is okay, what's not okay is trying to prevent the criticism and avoiding any help. Loved this video and I am glad you talked on this topic 💞💕
i luv your channels sm!! you are such an amazing hamster owner and love that you informed everyone :)
I commented on that hamster care and I DIED when I saw this video.. THANK YOU!!!!
Thank you for making this video and talking so calmly, whilst giving advice. I feel people shutdown when people attack them and are less likely to change their care.
Ok I'm officially obsessed with your hair😍
Oh thank you!!
I love reaction videos, and I was expecting one. I really hope gabi sees this and change the hamster care. Love you always and Sadie was so funny at the end 😂
I love how you give such grounded advice in a kind way..... I'm constantly learning from your videos.
Thank you Maggie!
Ohhhh I like this video! I do like any of your reacting videos x
Thanks for covering this! 💛🍁🎃
Thanks for the support!
I was waiting for this!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for all this advice! And this video Gabi needs to watch.
I am so glad I found your channel, I got a hamster in February’s and shortly after I found your channel and realized I wasn’t giving my hamster the best care. I changed up her space and gave her a 40 gallon tank, with lots of toys… more coming soon too, and just giving her the stuff she needs. But looking back at my last 2 hamsters I feel bad because although they did have a good life with lots of running around time, their cages weren’t the best- but I didn’t know. But I’m so glad I found the info I needed for me hamster!
yes i have a friend she gave her hamsters bad hamster care so i provided her your hamster tips and care and said she has to watch your vids for more info. Thank you so much for your tips its helped me alot trough my years of owning a hamster i am going to be upgrading my hammies cage.Love you ❤️
I'm glad she was willing to change her care!
me two
At first when I started thinking about getting a hamster I thought like other people, small cage, small wheel, any bedding will be fine, no sand bath…. ect. But I felt responsible because it’s a soul not a toy, so I decided to do a long search about hamster care, this was three or four months ago and until this day I'm still searching. I'm not going to bring a new friend to my house and make his life miserable for my personal happiness.
Thank you so much Victoria you have been a great help for me, I will try to make the best environment for my hamster when I feel that I'm ready to own one, I promise you🤍🤍🤍🤍
I'm glad you decided to do research first! and I'm happy I've been able to help you!
Victoria, you’re hamster cages are SO large and enriching to your hamsters. I was going to get a hamster impulsively and was watching TH-cam but then I came across your “where to get a hamster” video and that’s how I learned about pet mills and thanks to you I got a 110 quart bin cage for my hamster and now a yr later I have a 1,040 inch Christmas tree storage box bin cage filled with enriching items and a sand bath for my 1.5 yr old male hybrid hammy that I adopted! I also run a small hamster rescue for hamsters in need.
I'm glad you could come across the channel! Sounds like you have a very happy hamster!
9 million subscribers and those tanks?? UGH I hope she watches this, love your positive attitude
I have been waiting for u to post since last Sunday cuz I am a really really big fan
Im just 10 years ols and my parents wont let me get a proper cage or even a cage that is high enough for the bedding for my hamster but atleast your videos made me know the things i should do and shouldn't so hopefully ill try my best to give my hamster the best life
I have an idea hand your parents the phone and I’ll talk to them :)
@@MyMiniZoo my mom see hamsters as "a cute little vegetable eater" and thats it
@@lias_channel1733 maybe show her lots of the research you have done? I did to my mum and now she says I can upgrade. If you show her that you know what your talking about and that it's crucial then she will come around to the idea
@@lias_channel1733 hmmmm :/
@@lias_channel1733 tell her this “mom? Hey the wild/forest is really big right!! How big is my hamster cage?!! Super small…. So a bigger cage will suite a hamster and a small one stresses them out
i don’t understand why people don’t research before getting a pet? it’s the MAIN thing you need to do before getting a pet.. it also makes no sense why people think because their a pet they don’t need as much? like just because their smaller than other pets like dogs doesn’t mean they do not need anything. they actually need quite a lot.
You need to know where to look for information because even in the majority of books you can't find the info you find here!
@@nikiedewael3766 i know which sucks honestly, but there are a few books i used to read about hamsyers which have all the things you need to know about. and you also have the internet like watching youtubers who share how to make your hamster live the best life. i do think there should be more books and actual info to help tho.
Love that you informed everyone
I getting a Syrian hamster on Saturday from my friend who has taught me so much and I can’t wait for him and I’m watching ur videos non stop and learning so much to make sure my hamster has the best and happy life with me
I love your new hamsters 😆😆
Hi Rachel I started watching you recently and you inspired me to get a hamster. I was gonna get those bad cages from the pet store but because I watched you my hamster has a 10 inch wheel and a 600 squares inches of floor space 💕💕love you
Her name is Victoria:)
I'm glad you could avoid a small petstore enclosure!
Amazing video Tori!❤️ You do so well with hamster care!🐹 You have helped me so much with my hamster, Toffee.✨
Very well done. It's not about bashing someone else. It's creating awareness like you do. I've learned a lot from you and my Tinker now is in a 55 gallon Aquarium. Her new wheel is arriving shortly (bigger, she grew) from the US. A 12 inch. She only gets fresh food and hopefully a better life span of happiness. Thank you for all you do!
I love niki and gabi but I don't love gabi's pet care. she makes it all cute and doesn't actually seem to do all the research. with her rabbit room too it's cute but not the best.
wasn't Gabi DeMartino also on Lennon the Bunny's channel because of her inexperienced & lack of research in bunnycare? or is this a different Gabi?😅
0:34
This is very well said, can’t wait for the next video!❤️🐹❤️
victoria is the most tactful. she's such a nice person
I went to school today and I saw someone saying they had 7 HAMSTERS HUH I was confused but worrying at the same time cause I was like how big is the cage how much bedding do you have are your seven hamsters together etc…
I have 6 Hamsters everyone has their own enclosure (well my hamsters have their own room😅)
My dwarf hamsters use to get along but now they fight I've separated them before things got worst but why do they fight
Hansters are solitary animals, meaning when they have other hamsters with them they’ll fight. 💜
@@lexTS89 but I thought that robruvski can get along??
Hamsters should live alone as they’re solitary and do best alone. Robos are not social in captivity like you may think as it’s completely different in the wild.
:/
@@VictoriaRaechel okay now I understand thanks :)
Your heavy sigh and pause said it all, Victoria. I share the same bewilderment and utter frustration. As always, thank you for sharing your thoughts and expertise on all things concerning our beloved little fur babies. Cheers!
I love your videos soooooo much thank you for uploading yay early !
Thank you for watching 🥰
First with the bunny and now with a hamster. Seems like she doesn’t want to learn. Sad!
Good on you I’m so happy that you just educated so many people ❤️
You spoke so nicely and shared your info for her in such a non judgmental and kind way. Thanks for representing pet care so beautifully!!!!!
It's always a good day when you post :)
Someone recommended me this vid and honestly thank you! If I ever get a hamster I'll come back for advice but I loved learning all of that
Thank you for putting this out! People need to know what proper hamster care is!
Every youtuber who gets any hamster should come see your videos. They are so amazing and would definitely save lots of youtubers or any ones hamsters in general.
I’d like to thank you for your amazing, informative videos! I’m getting a hamster for Christmas this year and I’m sure they’re going to have an amazing life all because of you!! 🐹💛
I'm happy they could help!
Thank you soo much Victoria for making this video ! Continue to be active in the chat !!! We support your work
Thank you so much!
👍
Ive been waiting for this one, turn it up!
Aww I love Gabi but I definitely did think that she needed some improvement in hamster care. So glad you made this video! 😊
I love how you give advice in a kind way because I found where people do it in death threat ways
Living for the cat purrs at the end 😻, I hope she does listen to the advice and research the animal care better 💕
Hey Tori! How ya doing? Loved the video today! I totally agree with you on this one. I get so excited when you post! And you look so pretty today, Its pretty chilly now here to.
I am doing pretty good thank you!!
Dang the moment you paused before making a comment, and then picking your words to be objective and kinder than what you feel in your heart...
Thank you for reacting to this!!
Thank you for making this video!
EARLY! Congrats on 515k YOU DESERVE IT! 💖
Thank you!!! 😄❤️
So, I started watching your videos and I learned alot. I learned about how much I should upgrade my hamsters environment. So I started looking at things on Amazon such as niteangel things. And I had talked to my mom about it and telling her about all the stuff I've learned from you. And so I should be getting all the new hamster equipment soon. Also your videos are very relaxing!
The asmr at the end was amazing, best part of the video
Mom was a part of a hamster group on Facebook, and we learned so MUCH!!
Love your videos!
Great video! Thanks for spreading awareness
This was done in such good grace I giggled allot through out bc sis you just crack me up with some of your humor ;P I LOVE the shout out to Jenna, great example of taking what other people say to heart for the better of the animals needs.
Hiii Victoria! Thank you so much for being you.! I love your videos.!
Thank you for the support, it’s much appreciated 💜
@@VictoriaRaechel You’re so welcome! Will continue to support always! ❤️🙏👑
Amazing vid as always!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for this 😭💕🥲
There are many times when I don't understand the contents well because there are no Korean subtitles (I'm not good at English), but I get help every time I visit.👍👍👍
You are making that change Victoria ...
500k subscribers means at least 500k happier hamsters at least ❤🐭🐹❤
(but many of us have had more than one hamster so lets say you've improved the lives of 1000000 happier hamsters)
Thank you so much for helping people help their hamsters! I used to have a 420 square inch of floor space fish tank with less than a inch of bedding, but now I have a 803 square inch of floor space and 15 inches if bedding!
U are so kind and calm
🥰 thank you
I recently got a Russian Dwarf a few weeks ago, after not having any rodents for a few years. I watched a video of yours, talking about water bottles and water dishes. I went the next day to Target and got a couple of tea light glass holders and use those for his water now and took out the bottle. Got to see him the other day drinking from his water dish and it made me very happy. Thank you for all your wonderful advice and information you supply through your channel. Tomorrow I will be rearranging his enclosure as his Niteangel 2 chamber hide is arriving from Amazon and I'm so excited as he loves to burrow! His name is Little Man 😍 Have a wonderful weekend!
Happy to help! I'm glad he loves burrowing!!
i literally gasped when i saw those itty bitty tanks next to each other.
