    As a fellow Adult ADHDer your crafting struggles are so real lol I often feel like an extremely knowledgeable toddler with all the skills and access to power tools but also the 100% chance of doing things in a random order, goofing off and finding creative but inadvisable/insane solutions

    I so relate to your difficulty with verbal communication vs written. I have a minor in English and have small achievements with writing but cannot find the right word in the moment when talking. I blame it on my mind's data retrieval system being flawed. I often ask, "What is the word for ...." I really like your tunnel starter; wish I had the tools to make one or two for my hamsters. 🐹🐹

    Hello! I love watching your videos! I think the new animation of the hamster on the wheel is adorable. Also, you give me such a chaotic ADHD vibe that I really appreciate, because it's not just me whose mind goes through 20 different things in like 2 minutes. I just need a video of you setting off to do one thing, finding things around the house that need to be done that you instantly switch to, and ten tasks later at the end you realize what you wanted to accomplish in the first place. Also, I completely empathize with having trouble with words coming out in the right way. I feel when I was younger I was so smart and could do so much, but now my brain is like mush. Age and years of stress has taken its toll I guess.

    Hi Erin. This project is coming together beautifully. I am absolutely in love with it. I want to make some things for my hamsters cage and I have a few questions for you. (1) you use craft/school glue. Do you have any issues with it sticking the wooden pieces together, like the walls? (2) Did you use a specific kind of plywood? I thought because of the glues in plywood, it wasn't hamster safe? (3) What did you use for paint on this project? (4) Wouldn't the cork get soiled and what do you do if it does? I think that is all I wanted to know. Thanks for these awesome videos Erin. I cannot wait to see your enclosure complete and your new hamster enjoying it.

    • @SomethingAnimal
      @SomethingAnimal  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      For the majority of my projects I use solid pine, but occasionally I use plywood (like in this video). Plywood is slightly easier to work with and more lightweight, perfect for beginners, and I'd definitely recommend it for making toys/houses/etc. Pine is more hardy and I personally think it's a better option for building actual cages with. You should be able to find both pine and plywood in most large hardware stores 😊

      Thank you but there's no Amazon in my country so we don't get to be as picky with supplies unfortunately, we have to use whatever is available in local stores. I've been using this harness with him for 4 years and it doesn't seem to have any limitations on his movements, and the only other choice is just hooking his lead to his collar which is far less safe, so I feel much better using his harness :)
