I have a friend that lives on a sea yacht. An otter become friends with his lab. The otter comes in through the dog door, and jumps in the ocean during the day. It's funny. He's just as gentle as a dog.
that'd be a sight to stumble on. your dog hanging out all friendly with a random otter on your houseboat. hell, netflix might even buy the story as a tv show.
Yeah i lived on the river my lab loved them and thay loved him. Good old days. Otter are robers socks clothes any thing thay find yeah thay bite to
Dogs and Otters are related. Not surprising they get along so well.
NOW ISN'T THAT SWEET... 🙄🍰
@@asimian8500 otter noses and whiskers remind me of dog noses and whiskers.
Kotsumet brought me here.
Me and you both.
This otter doesn't have the same cosy lifestyle.
LOL ME TOO
Same
Same
I love how an otter and possum are roommates and their neighbor is a raccoon
Biden's economy has hit everyone pretty hard, I guess.
If you're going to keep certain exotic animals as pets, just give them the type of happiness and comforts they'll never get in the wild, Kotaro and Hana get to swim in both their pool and the river and their owner even gives them birthday parties which they get excited for.
Kotaro and Hana are incredibly obese animals...
They get treated better than me🤣
U dumb asf animals are animals
Thats much easier said then done
Also otters are illegal to have as pets in most of the world if i understand correctly
@@fikamonster2564 That's true, Japan is one of the rare places where it's legal, though there are conditions and risks.
There's a couple of Japanese CZcamsrs who own small clawed asian otters (the one I watch is called Kotsumet) and they're the closest I've seen to having an otter living in your home rather than an outdoor enclosure. They are very very well treated and cared for and they take them anywhere they are allowed. The male they own even knows tricks. I'd say they make good *selective* pets, as they are like a dog and cat combined that also need a large body of water to swim in. It is a lifestyle, like owning an alligator is one. They have captive bred ones since I think there's a couple breeders in Japan
Captain Atty and Otterman is another great channel
How about they're wild animals and shouldn't be kept as pets and should be left in the wild.
@@notthefather3919 That would apply to every single animal kept as a pet.
Also, animals kept as pets generally live longer, healthier, and less stressful lives.
@@notthefather3919 tf is your definition of wild lol. Even cats are wild then coz they have hunting instincts
Notthefather15 literly a stupid point humans used to be wild cats are wilf dogs were wild horses were wilf cows sheel pigs all have been wild before nothing is magicly not wild by nature itself creatures adapt to social enviroment thats how they survive if a species couodnt adapt to domestication would show a lack of social adaotation and that sort species would nit make it far before exstiction
The8r is no magic border between wild and not wildmits simply enviroment
if i had the money, the resources and the time, i would definitely own a few otters. i adore them.
Nice to see Rocket and Lyla had a good life in the multiverse
Cute lady: "Do Otters make good pets?"
Me: "Please say yes, please say yes!"
They make great pets but they are very very smart, the smarter than cats, they do crave attention tho, its best to get a male and female pair as in the wild they will almost never be alone and really need constant company to feel safe. You can train them to do all kinds of tricks, walk on a lead, and use a litter box without much issue. They do love fish the most but will eat most types of cat food and chicken/turky.
Nope.
1:32 Otter and raccoon. Just saw Gurdians of the Galaxy Vol.3...
His cuteness level is over 9000!!
Seeing a otter melts my heart
I came for adorable otter action now I'm just blindsided. "I got to check his blanket for scorpions" *then reaches right in as if that's not a big deal.* I beg your damn pardon😅
LMFAO 😂😂
😂😂 Gotta do what I gotta do!!! -Katelyn
.....and any 10 to 12 inch centipedes!
One great thing about Otters that I have observed with Kotaro and Hana is that they are completely opposite from bored house cats in that they are interested in ~everything~. You can't go wrong buying toys for Otters, they are all over every new thing!
Ok u need more of these videos of the otter and the possum. I can watch this all day. So cute
Hahaha I can make that happen 😂 -Katelyn
Same here
Hi Katelyn 👋 I love it when your on Dav's videos!! You're a very knowledgeable person 😁 and so sweet 🥰
Thank you so so much!! Means a lot ♥️😍-Katelyn
I agree
Your genuine giggle is so adorable and a testament of how much you love your animal friends :) 😋😁😆
Cringe
Adorable. I used to work part-time at the San Diego Zoo, and the otters were the most fun.
What a beautiful animal!
Thanks for sharing your joy with us!!!
I want one! So adorable!
The otter is cute too :D
Omg I love your intro logo is soooooo good....I really enjoyed this video !! Had to leave a comment and let ya know !!!
Stopped by, as I see you are talking about one of my favorite animals on the planet, and had to check it out.
Your knowledge and care/love of this awesome creature is commenable and quite laudable.
Mr Chow is did not disappoint, and was a howl to watch. "No leash"... right on Mr Chow.
Wishing you, Mr Chow and all the animals health and happiness.
Im always amazed how close to hands otter paws are.
Give their shoulders more flexability, and their front paws would be near identical to hands.
And they are really soft. Have had the joy of interacting with one in a zoo. Incredibly cute 😊
on some planets otters evolved into humans... well humanoids
Too. Cute I love Mr Chow's water inclosure it's hard life for this otter LoL 🥰 love her hair nice video 👍
I've wanted one or two since I was a child! Funny to have been recommended to watch this. I'll watch this often. Thank you so much 😍
This just showed up on my you tube screen, I love small clawed otters, they can be loud, but there,so adorable and interactive.
I have always had a special place in my heart for otters. I would love to have one as a pet but my Springer Spaniel is a very jealous dog. Thanks for showing how to care for one.
Previous fur trapper here. Very cool family you have there. Hope they all do well. Thank you. Great video
When I saw the possum it reminded me of my possum fur sweaters. Love the video
Katelyn is an absolute cutie, would love to see more of her. Hristos a Inviat!!! Happy Easter!!!.
"Our grumpy racoon". Geeze, I can't imagine why..
Just discovered your channel. Love it. You rock! Liked and subscribed.
Very nicely done!
Very cute, very pleasant... I know a guy who's been around otters for a couple of decades and one time - chomp otter bit through two of his fingers.
Otters make cute 🥰 noises even when they want something.
They sound like meowing cats when they want something.
That’s such a cute pet
It's funny to see how he plays with your hand, my cat does the exact same! ^^
Aww, he is gorgeous but we already have a cat who has a lot of those behaviors. I would only consider an otter if I was close to water.
I see there is a Japanese guy with a pair in his house too. Super endearing but also a lot of work.Thanks for filling in some details about them.
Mr. Chow is lovely and I'm glad he has you to take care of him. Only very few people can provide what otters need, they're certainly not for the average pet owner or income! I love them, but I would never try keeping one. There are a couple of CZcams otter channels that do a great job and others that don't - it's good to know the difference.
You also need to keep them in at least groups of 2 (Mr Chow is an exception as a rescue of course!).
He reminds me ton a of a bigger ferret. I know what you mean about the way ferrets play - the rough and tumble play is important for mammals according to some studies by behaviourists at least from what I've heard in psych classes lol. You play with him exactly the way I used to play with my ferret! It's interesting to see it in animals from ferrets to otters to everything else. The noises are even similar, tho those jaws are a LOT bigger! Haha
Thank you for sharing!
1:32 Ayo is that rocket?
Thank you for all the info.
Otterly impressive. Eeriely similar to feline habits without the scratching. I have a tortie
How adorable!
Mr Chow is adorable
Definitely needs another otter..world's most social animal can't be left single.
Yea, I agree, but they seem to be doing what they can to compensate. It is one of the nice things about Otters that they do get along well with a lot of other animals.
Your Intro Is Awesome.
Katelyn is an absolute cutie, would love to see more of her
that otter is living the life. Lives way better than I do
Adorable.
He needs a miniature pinscher to play with, as min pins are super-high energy and will play constantly.
What a cute little squeaky boy he is!
So nice to see!

So precious
I want an otter now
Got a ferret when i was 18, didn't know anything so i raised her like a dog. Yup, went out to poo and came right back in. No fence. No enclosure. Sammy weasel lived 12 years. Old i am told.
Just got crazy deja Vu when I saw that enclosure. I didn't catch you said phoenix at the beginning. I've been here. IVE MET MR CHOW!
Hey guys, I'm new. She is cute and I love her freckles lol but I love the way she talked about her animals, can't wait to see more and yes I've subscribed. :)
Sounds like you are repressed
The nose boops! ❤😂🫶🏻
So adorable
I love this video!
Hristos a Inviat!!! Happy Easter!!!
Aww, Mr. Chow.
Super kind soul… yes you are❤️
Cutest sight of my whole life. The otter is pretty cute also.
He's a adorable, but it's so sad that he's so lonely.he's all by himself. I hope you find this beautiful otter a play, mate.
I don't know why but Mr. Chow reminds me so strongly of my Nana's pure breed Chihuahua. They both just give me the same vibe.
Hahahaha yes - Katelyn
Super cute
I love otters like Mr. Chow!🦦
very cool - you and otters . keep goin :)
I love otters, they are the hoot
How sweet!
Thanks.
I traveled through Australia for roughly eight weeks a few years ago. It was an awesome trip, but also, I woke up twice to scorpions underneath my tent. First one crawled up my leg before I realized and I only noticed it was a scorpion after I'd brushed it off. Oops. Luckily, I wasn't stung...
Aren't you cute with that big smile, and all those freckles. An animal lover as well.
Such a lovely animal.
AWSOME VIDEO
👍👍👍
Remind me never to live somewhere where i’d have to check there are no scorpions in the blankets.
When I was 17 or 18, I was at a friend's house (trailer) in Central Florida. I felt a bug land on my neck, and tried to swat it away like I would have with most southern creepy crawlies. The scorpion dug in it's claws so my attempt to swat it caused it to entrench and aggro. Fucker stung my neck like four times. By far the worst insect sting I've ever felt.
I do the same thing as Mr Chow when i go to the bathroom he is so cute.
Really cute. THe animals are pretty cool, too.
Wonderful Water Weasels, they're all over the place where I live in Florida 😁
Such unique animals. 👏
Bro that little guy winked at the end 😂
Just reminded me of that film about a guy who ends up with an otter in central London. I think it’s called Ring of bright water.
Quite a good little movie if I’m remembering right.
that reminds me I need to check my blankets for scorpions as well.
Mr Chow is awesome ❤
Lovely!
Well we can not deny that they make CUTE PETS that’s for sure!
He is so cute!
There’re few YT channels from Japan where people own otters as pets. From what’s shown in those vids it’s extremely fun and entertaining, iWorks go further and say it’s a next level pet. So playful, cute, funny and great swimmers. That’s where it might be a little extra work as well cause daily swimming it’s necessary for them to maintain good health so that means you’ll have to adapt yourself and your house to that. An area to dry them up will be needed, etc. conclusion: I would totally have otter as pet❣️
new to the channel. Just want to say, boss lady is so pretty. glad to be here. 🥰
The first thing I thought was "No, not good pets...but they are fantastic at being otters"
Holy crap, Now I want an Otter!
Honestly, I have no intention of getting an otter, nor do I know why I'm here. But I guess I'm here for the ride
They are otterly delightful
Fun fun, thank you!
#RattleOn
Scruffy seem really pawsome.
Mr chow 😂 so handsome !
He’s gorgeous xxxxx
Very cute boy.
