In my previous post, I made a few recommendations in reference to YouTube channels that I watch and enjoy. Several of you responded in your comments, so I thought I would make a few more. See, I don't watch a lot of television but I do enjoy watching things in the evenings and I often turn to YouTube because I enjoy the content and wide selection.
For those of you who may have missed my last post here is the link. Laughter, Humour and a Few Recommendations
Now here are the next ones! I am providing the title of each channel so that you can find it on YouTube.

1. Girl with the dogs (Girl with the dogs 2)
This is a young lady who lives in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. She is a professional groomer who does mostly dogs and cats but on occasion she will groom other animals as well. She has a very gentle approach. She is often called upon to groom "difficult" animals that other groomers will not groom because they are labeled as aggressive. Please check out her channel if this sounds interesting to you.

2. Nat Geo Kids (National Geographic Kids)
This is a channel that you can watch alone or with your children or grandchildren. There are many fascinating animal videos that are enjoyable and educational.

3. The Purring Journal  
If you love cats, there are plenty of videos on this channel to enjoy and to learn new things about cats that you may not know!

4. Open Heart Music
If you just want to relax, are stressed, perhaps having trouble sleeping, feeling down, depressed, or in a bad mood, these videos can help you to refocus and relax. These videos can be quite long! But you can listen to them for the length of time you need!

5. Soothing Relaxation
This YouTube channel is similar to Open Heart Music, above. Perhaps you had a long, tiring and stressful day and just want to chill and soothe away the stress of the day, you can watch and listen and unwind. The videos on this channel can help you to decompress. These videos can be quite long! But you can listen to them for the length of time you need!

I hope you will all enjoy these YouTube channels and thank you in advance for letting me know that you are enjoying any given YouTube channel that I have suggested in these last two posts. :)
