I’m a Life Skills teacher and now I think I will add in lessons about pet care! Your videos help me grow as a person and a teacher, thank you so much.

Litterbox tip, put the plastic bag in the bottom and then when it’s time to change it, just take the bag out and replace it:)

Watching someone else be productive Is the greatest

Lavender’s meow and Gallop’s bark was so adorable! I just adopted a cat that is the male version of Lavender!

Lavender is like hurry up clean my litter box lol 😂❤️ she is adorable

Im sure Molly knows this, but sometimes cats love to crawl into laundry machines. Since Lavender likes crawling into those shelves, it seems like a concern that the machine would be something she'd try to do. So Molly, make sure Lavender isn't stuck in a machine before starting a cycle, maybe feel around or call her just in case!

I am absolutely FASCINATED hearing about your “photographic” memory! That is so cool! I’d love to hear more about it if that were somehow possible. 💕

When cat sitting my ex's mum's cat, I find newspaper good to line the bottom of the tray to prevent any 'stickage'. If there's a free newspaper you could pick up or if your parents' read a newspaper, I definitely recommend!!

Love a girl thats puts on Make-Up for HERSELF!

Litter box tip, my father is close to blind and we got a shake litter tray so he is able to do their cats The middle part of the box lifts up so only the clumps of waste stay on a mesh-like layer, and you shake a tiny bit to make sure they are only the poops and pee clumps. Then one can simply tip the mesh layer into a trash bag! Much too late for you to read this but might help others :)

Hey Molly! Tip for the smelly washing machine: don’t close the washer when not in use. Since the washing machine is in the closet you probably don’t want to leave the machine door fully open, but you can get a baby lock to help the machine door stay slightly ajar. Hope this helps!

I recommend the litter genie for scooping and cleaning the litter box. I'm visually impaired and that's what I use for my cats. I have one by each litter box. I hope that helps and I hope you have a wonderful week.

For the washer, It's recommended to leave the door open. allows it to dry out in between loads. Might be hard to do that with your setup, possibly leave open overnight?

Litter box tip: you can fill much more bedding in it and then use a shovel to detect the clumbs and throw them in a bucket (as that is easier than a plastic bag).

The intro - as an animal lover I LOVE IT!!

Love that you’re into the eco friendly products like not using paper towels! Also use dryer balls as they are just wool and last way longer than dryer sheets.

I absolutely love how you say you FEEL cute, you FEEL comfortable. I learn so much from you. As a sighted person when I observe others’ differences in perception based on their different circumstances it’s so eye opening and quite big for me and so I want to thank you. 🙂 It really shows how feeling cute can equate to actually looking cute Bc you literally radiate ✨ and glow. Also-yes I absolutely hate the litter box it never gets better either 🥲 Love from Houston!!

Sighted cat mom here!! I use the plastic bag you had as a liner like we do for trash cans, so I put it in the litter box then put the litter, the lid holds it in place. She does her business and I scoop until it starts getting funky, then I pull the whole liner out of the box and discard it. Every so often I take it into the bath tub and give the base & lid a wash. Alternatively, they do make recycled material litter boxes that are meant for a week’s use of so then toss it, I’ve seen them at PetSmart. I know they’re sold in Canada because Melissa Maker from Clean My Space showed them years ago and I got some for my previous cat Honey.

Molly you NEED an automatic cat box. Give a different brand another try. I have 2 of the PetSafe brand and they are a GOD SEND. It’s going to save you so much time and effort. The boxes come with crystal litter so it shouldn’t be dusty at all

Love the new intro and branding!! So excited to watch this one as soon as I get home 😄😄

That dishwasher would be a great addition to my kitchen being a paraplegic in a wheelchair. I love watching your videos they are very inspiring to me.

Hey Molly, I’m a person with sight and the way we use these litter box plastic bags in France is that we put them before putting the litter « granules » in the litter box, that way when the litter is dirty you just have to take off the bag, tie a knot and put it in the bin, then put a new litter bag then put the litter in it then put the lid of the litter back on ! Lots of hugs from Paris, Clem

As someone who can't even remember what I ate for lunch yesterday, I applaud your memory skills! What a blessing that really is!

As someone with an absolutely shocking memory, to the point that it does affect my life and relationships, I am shocked to hear that it's possible to have a memory that good

It might help to get multiple litter boxes with Lavender, I've found it helps them bury it more and manage the smell. It's also a possibility to just get big bins, I have a friend whose cats really like to dig deep, so she got storage bins and the combination of them burying it, with the deep litter and surface area helps with her smell. My two cats even tend to use specific litter boxes for pee and poo, just something they naturally started doing that actually helps a lot. Also baking soda, and a closed lid that seals trashcan super close by has made a huge difference.

i always thought a blind person wouldn’t care about aesthetics much but it’s inspiring to me to see molly put together such a beautiful home

My Great Aunt, who is 84 years old, has slowly been going blind over the last couple of decades due to macular degeneration. She can still see her phone, because she can make it very bright, hold it up to her face, and make the font huge. She can’t see anything that isn’t in very bright light. In the small town where she lives, there are no services for her. Your channel helps me understand a lot of what she is dealing with and ways I can help her to cope. Thank you for sharing even these mundane things. You will probably never know all the people you help. For everyone like me who comments, there are hundreds who don’t.

Her channel has given me such a different perspective and continues to educate me in every single video

If you like Tide Pods, you should definitely try Dropps!! 😁 They're a way better company and ship carbon neutral 😊

Gallop jumped up SO quick like "wait, that's for me?!" Haha so cute

For the smell in your washer, I used to have that and I just keept the door open just a crack to air it out it helped for me!

For the litterbox, put the bag inside the empty litterbox and then fill it with litter. Then when you clean it, you just have to lift the bag and throw it away!

Self cleaning litter boxes have made my life so much easier, I can really recommend one as a solution for you!

Litter Box tip: I'm not blind, but with my litter box I put the bag ontop of the bottomand over the sides first. Then I'll put the cat litter on top of the bag, so when I need to empty the box all I need to do is lift up the bag and the litter is already in it. Hope this make sense, I find it really helps.

I'm sorry can we go back 11 months and talk about how molly has a fucking perfect memory???????? Literally a form of genius? Although molly doesn't have sight literally she can "see " more than most sighted people because she's stored it all in her mind. Absolutely fucking amazing.

ALso look into Seventh Generation laundry detergent concentrate. They now have a dispenser that you just turn upside down and squeeze. It dispenses the right amount directly onto your clothes. If you want unscented detergent, this is a great option.

Clicking so fast to see the new intro😍😍

For cat litter, I put a liner down first in the litter box (like a garbage bag or something, nothing fancy) so there's no precarious dumping of dirty litter. I use a scooper to get out the clumps every day, then change the entire littler for fresh litter once a week - just take it all out using the liner, put a new liner down, put the new litter in. It also cuts down on the amount you need to physically scrub the litter tray itself.

Hey Molly. i have a tip for your litterbox. you can use the litterbag as a liner. so you place the bag in the litterbox just like you would a trashbag and place the pallets on the bag. when you clean the litterbox you just take out the bag and the litter at the same time. this trick also makes it so you don't have to clean the litterbox as much.

It’s so frustrating how many people still assume that blind people are just helpless and incapable of doing things independently. Many blind people live independently, have careers, raise kids, have hobbies, etc. Please people, stop believing the stereotype that a blind person is only capable of doing basic tasks like stringing beads.

I always wondered how she could remember colors and such of her clothes whenever she would just pull something out of her closet. That's really interesting.

As a Visually impaired kitty mom , put the plastic trash bag in the bottom half of lavenders tray and then clip the top of the tray back on so when you come to change her litter you can just lift the plastic trash bag out and throw it away and then put a fresh bag and litter, Love from Scotland from Hope (me) and my kitty Ruby xx

Not blind girl advice, but cat mom advice: they make special litter boxes for the pellets because they're not designed to absorb pee. You put a pad in a compartment in the bottom and it absorbs the pee, so all you have to do is scoop out the poop. You don't have to dump the pellets every time, but if you have trouble scooping out poop versus pellets (pellets will usually fall through the scooper when you shake it side to side but poop won't), then dumping it every time might be easier for you.

17:00 Molly is an ant. She has a great spatial memory and she counts her steps to get places.

Love the new intro! Lavender and Gallop’s time to shine 🤩

Grab some wool dryer balls for your dryer! They have made a WORLD of difference with our slow drying dryer haha they bounce around inside the mass of wet clothes and helps get airflow going.

Hi Molly! I have a front load washer too. A tip to help the smell, leave the door open a crack when you're not washing something in it. It's made to seal water in so when you close it after washing it seals all that moisture in and creates mold. The previous owners of my house never left the washer door open and it smelled terrible. Also, the Oxyclean washing machine cleaning packets work great. Or running it with just bleach also helps with the smell.

Totally relate to the hearing a cat mewling from within the walls, quite often I'll hear a faint meow coming from somewhere and instinctively go to unlock the pantry cupboard 😂 haha

I love the new intro!! so cute!

I don’t have any washing machine repair tips, but sometimes dryers get slow because the sensor has buildup on it. You’ll feel 2-3 raised parallel strips probably on the front wall under the door, near the lint filter. ( if it’s laid out like my dryer) They’re metal, and the conductivity is what lets it know that the cloths are dry when the wet no longer completes the circuit. You can clean oils from clothing off with rubbing alcohol. It might not be the problem with your dryer, but it might help!

Hey Molly, I enjoyed watching how you clean your apartment. Your idea for cleaning the litter box is absolutely genius. I also enjoyed your tips and doing laundry and countertops. When I do laundry, I had my mom mark the knobs with either tactile dots or glue dots. Keep up the good work.

I am excited this was something I seriously wondered

I had the exact same washer/dryer in my apartment and loved them! For the leak, make sure the drain pipe thing on the bottom right is tightly secured. The knob should be tightened to 12:00 and 6:00. 🕕 you also have to let the pipe drain into a bowl every month so there may be a lot of build up in there from a previous tenant. And I always keep the washer door open so it can air dry properly and not create mould. For the dryer i always found it dried really well but I also used wool dryer balls which help to dry clothes really fast!

There are specific litter box bags you put on the tray before the litter and so when you go to clean the litter box, you can just pull out the bag, tie it up, and throw it out.......so much more convenient and less mess!

I was really procrastinating on cleaning my room and making my bed, but I played your video and it was like doing our chores together. It sounds weird I know but I feel it's better to do something you don't like when someone else does it with you, so thank you for the push

I have a chart that I brailled next to my washer and dryer that's top to bottom and it has been a life-changer.

I have two cats. I used to just scoop everything into the litter genie. Then I bought a Litter Robot and it's absolutely been worth it.

A cycle or two of vinegar in the washer and making sure the door to the washer is slightly open (not wide open, just don’t click it closed) so the machine can dry inside, could solve the mildew issue quite easily. You don’t necessarily have to leave the washer door open all week, but just say overnight after doing your laundry, just to let the residue water in the machine have a chance to dry off instead of being sealed in for days and days. You don’t have to run a vinegar cycle all the time either but just when the mildew smell is really there. My mum had a lot of issues with the washing machine smelling even though she left the door open, but quite recently she started using vinegar instead of fabric softener/rinse aid as vinegar can have the same effect on the clothes but in a more environmentally friendly way that also is better for the fabrics, and when stopping the chemical type fabric softener and using vinegar instead it also made the machine smell better, and then she also runs a cycle with just vinegar to clean the machine every now and then or as needed. Cheap, easy and green way of taking care of the washing machine and keeping it fresh

For the litter box I use wood pellet litter and I have a sifting litter box and I put the bags under the sifting tray so all the saw dust ends up in the bag and I just lift and tie up the bag and replace with a new one every week. For the poop I flip a poop bag inside out and put it on my hands to find and pick up the poop. I just flip the bag inside out with the poop and throw the poop away. This way it’s easier as you just have to shake the litter box everyday and pick up poop everyday. The pellets it’s self I only fully dispose of it when it smells bad if not I just top up with more litter as when the pellets are used they turn into saw dust. Hope that helps!

Oh my God! I’ve never been this early. My dream is to talk to Molly one day.

Watching this in a attempt to motivate my lazy ass to clean my apartment too

Hi Molly! If Lavender getting herself stuck in places is super irksome, I have a suggestion. You could get some lights, stick them in the closets or anywhere you need, and get a couple cameras -- one for each closet. If they're connected to a camera app on your phone or Alexa/Google, you could easily find where Lavender is!

I’m from New Zealand and I am also visually impaired and physically disabled so having a destroyer rather than a dishwasher really helps me as well!

Molly you should try TRU EARTH Detergent sheets, super easy, just tear and put in the washing machine, can even use half sheet for small loads and a full sheet for a larger load. PS I love the new into and graphics!

We just scoop ours out every day and then dump the whole thing once a week... but we put a lot more litter in at once.

Girl you don’t even have to say you have a photographic memory for me to believe you have a photographic memory. The amount of things you commit to memory in just your daily life alone is so astonishing that to me i assume you have a photographic memory. Amazing that you confirmed it!

Your laundry method is awesome and your memory is amazing!! The way my husband and I do laundry is that we do not have a basket, we take something off and it immediately goes into the washer, when the washer is full it gets run. We run everything on 'warm' so no colors bleed and nothing shrinks, so we have no need to separate clothes. We don't have any special fabrics that need special care, especially because we have a toddler we don't have time for that.

I mean... I’m sighted, yet still: how do I laundry?

It is so cool seeing how someone who is different than me go through their daily life

Let me tell you - as a sighted person with four cats, I'm very impressed with your litter box routine! I could learn a thing or two from you :)

I am visually impaired and I love the Breeze Litter Box. It uses the hard pellets and potty pads. The potty pads are in a drawer below the main litter box, the potty filters through the pellets to the pad below and you just have to scoop the business as needed and change the pads every 4 days. The pellets can be changed once a month. The scooper clips to the side of the littler box and the pellets fall through the scooper as you scoop around so all you have to toss out it the business. I deep clean my box at least once a month as well. Let me know if you have questions.

Yeees😍 I also use pellets. I have a two layered cat toilet. So i can shake the toilet and the dissolved pellets can fall to the bottom. So they dont step in the pee. And the pellets last longer. But tree pellets work soo well, and i feel like its better for the environment

Never thought I could enjoy cleaning this much... 😂

For the cat litter. They sell these liners that you put at the bottom of the box. It comes in sets of like 5-10. You put the litter on top of the bags. They have holes in them so to empty it you just pull out the bag. The poop gets pulled up and the litter gets left kind of like a strainer for pasta lol!! Everytime you change out the liter completely, you just put a new set of bags at the bottom! Hope that makes sense!!!

Not blind but I am lazy. For cat litter get a monthly subscription service like Skoon. It’s no dust and comes in a disposable cardboard litter box. Super easy to clean!

Always inspiring me to do things even with an impairment that seem scary to do.

“There was a frog in my throat, how rude”

My mom has a litter maid litter box. If you use a non-clumping litter it works amazing by scooping the poop in one box that can be dumped or disposed of and then you just refill the litter as needed.

When Molly was feeling around the dishwasher, I was praying there wasn't a knife in there. I had chills 😱 OH! And there's cat litter box bags you can use. You put the bag in put the litter over and when you have to clean it, it works like a plain Jane trash bag. Easy peasy. (I don't know how to spell the last part 😸)

Love the new Intro with Lavender and Gallop!

Your washer might have a filter that is full. See if your landlord will have a handyman check the filter.

I highly recommend the tidy cats breeze kitty system and pellet litter. It is a lifesaver. No smell and easy cleaning!

I highly recommend SmartCat Litter! ❤️ It's all natural, made out of grass, with no fake frangrance or chemicals. I have never had a problem with smell and it lasts for a long time! I love that you switched from powdery litter to pellets! Way better.

Love the new intro! Also, I was wondering if they did anything different with braille signs during the pandemic?

for the litter box, you could try a sifting pan that way it scoops the whole box at once

The way you clean the litter is actually super convenient and how I used to do it for my other cats as a sighted person. I now have the scoop free litter system with crystal litter that might work for you, I like not having to scoop litter often.

I'm not blind, but I've had many cats over the years and litterbox liners are a lifesaver! There are a couple different types, such as drawstring and sifting liners - I preferred the drawstring ones because of how many cats we had. The sifting kind of aerates the smell a little which I didn't always like, and it mostly works with fine particle clumping cat litter which also gave my cats asthma so we stopped using it. In a pinch when we didn't have the money, we just used small kitchen trash bags turned inside out to line, and that worked pretty well. But using liners helps to cut down how often you have to deep clean the litter box by a lot! And makes changing litter a lot faster (and you won't have to scrape the bottom as often which I really appreciated lol). Of course, whatever works for you is a good way of doing it! Just a quick tip ❤️❤️

I've never been early before! Molly you always make my day a little brighter even when its gloomy.

Your routines inspire me! For example, I try to load the dishwasher throughout the day, but usually wait until 2 am to load and run it! 🤣

For another cat litter box option, highly recommend the Tidy Cats Breeze system. It uses pee pads and pellets. I find it to be less smell, less mess, and super easy to use (at least as a sighted person.) You would have to figure a way to scoop it instead of changing all of the litter everytime. But I think it could be a really great option for you and Lavender.

Concerning the litter box: in Germany we have „Catsan Smart Pack“ and there is an integrated bag for the litter box, it‘s super convenient to clean it! :)

Ahhhh the intro is so adorable!! 🥰 love you, Molly! You always make my day :)

I admire you soo much. I could never do what you do ❤️❤️

Omega Paw Roll Clean Self Cleaning Litter Box get this litter box you just roll it and it filters the nasty out into a removable drawer dump it and roll the clean litter back it’s awesome I love it my Mom has one for her cat and so does my sister and I love mine as well!

I would recommend getting a second litter box for Miss Lavender. She will thank you for it. It helps to have two boxes per cat. I also recommend a natural clumping litter like Garfield brand with cassava and corn (made safe for kitties and dust free) or a fine crystal litter as an option to ask your vet about. I also had both myself and a cat sneezing and having issues from a traditional litter and both of those options work well for us and are available as clumping for daily scooping. If you do try the crystal kind just make sure you get the kind that is fine as the bigger chunks can hurt kitty paws. The litter you have is great, but if you are looking for a clumping option to make daily scooping easy those have worked for us. Also, crystal litter really is good at neutralizing the stink. Best of luck!

NEW INTRO OMG I LOVE IT 😚

Lol I have an all black cat and every time I open my closet he somehow sneaks in with out me noticing (I’m not blind) and minutes later he’s meowing or scratching at the door😂 it’s just a cat thing I guess

As a blind person I found this really interesting listening to you describe how you found your methods everyone have a different way of doing things whether you’re cited or not I have found four knobs if they do not have an arrow or indicator to tell you where the arrow is I have used a bumped out to indicate that for myself it makes it a lot easier

I use a litter called “Swheat-scoop”! It is flushable / good for the environment and the kitty! I keep it in the bathroom and just scoop and flush whenever I go to the bathroom! Then once a week I dump the box, use dish soap and clean out the box / scoop. I cant believe how much Lavendar looks like Sakura!!! She’s such a pretty girl!
