 What's up, everybody? Welcome to SPM Buzz. My name is Liz Jackson and today we are bringing you such an exciting show, the Celebrity Pets, so what we are going to be doing is to talk to your favorite celebrities, we check their pets, we get to learn more about their pets, and today to go at the home of the one and only Antonio. So, we are going to go to Antonio's event, so let's go and see what he is going to do. We want to bond with him, together with the pets, to do easy pets. So, let's go and see what he is going to do. Antonio, can you show us what you are going to do? Yes, we are going to do a stela. How are you? I am very good. How are you? I am very fresh. Thank you so much. Thank you. Yes, I am very good. Oh my God, so Leo. So, we are in Bosco, and now we are going to Tascar. These are African chef fans. African chef fans? They are fascinated by your shoes. My shoes? Are they new? They look like the toys they play with. Why, Antonio? They want your shoes. So should I take them off? Okay. Alright. So what you are going to do? We are going to do our funtisho. thank you afrika So, I've loved animals so much and it made me love. I just don't only have dogs, I have cats, I have four of them. But I breed them myself. Like the way the queen breeds the kogis and all that. So I breed my own, what do you call it? Like my own breed that stands out. That's why my cats are very, very beautiful. Yes. Is that one of the reasons why I wish you a apartment for place? At least it's a compound that I can easily manage them and I can handle a few things here and there because this also, you know, many places in Nairobi, especially apartments, they don't allow pets. I love animals, I'm getting parrots. Yeah, rabbits, I want to keep them around this area. Kidovo, kidovo because I love them. Okay, and I would want to know. Kama hawa uwi, waza ziwao, wako wapi, ama didu by them. This is the story, my mechanic. I really love animals. I'm not that kind of person who would like discriminate on which type of dogs I pick. I would pick a cool breed. I'll also pick this cool breed because it's also cool and they are very intelligent. African shepherds are one of the most intelligent dogs by the way because we bred them with the wild dogs back in the days, okay? So, yeah, they're pretty much cool like you see. Okay. Antonia, are you in a relationship? No, I'm single like nobody's business. Are you in a relationship? I'm single. Do you like animals? I think I'm beginning to love animals. One of my most important regulations is you must love animals. You must be, if you are a vegetarian, it's even a plus. If you don't eat meat. Are you a vegetarian? Yes, I do not eat meat. You do not eat meat. And I would want to know like in the daily life of these pets when you wake up in the morning paka jiyoni. It's no joke. It's no joke. Don't have a pet if you're not ready. It's just like having kids and stuff like that. It's responsibility because I travel too much, okay? And when I'm away, I have to let someone take care of them. Someone who loves animals like a friend. Sometimes I'd even write on social media if you can be my nani for the weekend I could pay you per day to just take care of them. So for dogs, cuts are more expensive than dogs. Cuts are very expensive. They are more expensive than dogs because a cut is very vulnerable to terminal illnesses like cancers and stuff like that. And they are allergic to over 100 types of foods. So you have to be very careful what you feed them and you have to take care of them like regular vet visits. You have to vaccinate them. You have to deworm them. And one cut will cost you like say 7,000 a month. So 2 cuts 14,000 a month. Wait, how many cuts do you have? I have 4 now. So that's roughly how much per month? That would be a lot. But now you have to like make sure you even make food for yourself because there's a way you can make pet food. Okay. And do you cook for them? If you buy dog food, normally you will have to there is dog food that you cook and there is dog food that is dry you just give them. But you have to make it for them like you have to make those rice dog rice, you have to cook dog rice and stuff like that. So basically that's it. And these dogs of mine are only 5 months. You can see how big they are. They are only 5 months. So they eat well. They wake up in the morning. I have to give them before. Before is that big thing from farmers choice. You have to give them in the morning a mixture of that liver heart kakuku So you mix it with them. So it's nutritious to them and then sometimes rice in the evening so that it helps with their digestion. So you have to do that every every time I have to do it in the morning kama kuna rein? Kuna rein. Tuneza songa pale kiasi food. So yeah I have to feel like if you see if notice now I'm walking with treats if you notice like my pocket is full of treats So this is how I relate with them. They know that if they see me they see food. And when that means I'm the alpha they see me as a dog. So I'm the alpha. I give them food. If they don't listen to me they will not eat. So they have to follow me. It's a principle for them. They live like they are in the world. So these ones are twins. I got them from my mechanic. He had like this stray dog that gave birth to like 15 puppies I guess. So when I saw them I'm like I have to have like two of them even three if I can. I said I'm going to have these two call one Bosco and the other one Taska because they are African and I don't even speak English to them. I speak Taka. Enda uko. Taka Inje. They have to listen. I say not Taka Inje. Because I don't believe in their you have to speak to animals in English so that they hear you. No, you speak to animals the language you taught them from the beginning like a toddler would. Where you grow up is the language you speak. I would want to know because they are very well behaved. You train them yourself? I train them myself. DIY, YouTube is the saviour. So most of the time I go and watch Siza to the rescue. You watch Siza to the rescue. Do you know who Siza is? Like Dog Whisperer. On Nat Geo Wild. That's what they go through. On a daily. So my biggest challenge is actually disease. The infectious diseases because I know at some point when animals age especially cats they become susceptible to cancers like terminal cancer, lung cancer especially. So this kind of man I have to take care of them. You know most people don't know that cats don't drink milk. So like people will get cats and give them milk and they don't know that once a cat is like say five months or six months old they become lactose intolerant. So when you give them milk it creates a digestion imbalance and then it becomes sick. In that kulto it's no. No. On a Siza. Where we? So basically that's it. I would want us to go to the cats. We have Stella and this is Stella and we have Tonic. So Stella is Tonic's mother. And Stella I got her from her mum who I gave out to the because at the time I was moving out and I felt really bad because animals are supposed to be with you for life. So I promised Stella and Tonic that I would never leave their side. Oh my God. I've been with Stella for five years now, six years. Five years now. Stella is five years. Stella is five years she's given birth twice. So this is a second liter of kittens. I'll show you the kittens in a few. And how old is Tonic? Tonic is about two years now. This is the second year. She's female. I only keep female cats, I don't keep male cats. And I only keep male dogs, I don't keep female cats. So the dogs are male, the cats are female? Because female cats they are on top of the food chain. When you look at wolves and cats the female wolves are alpha. So in cats the female cats are alpha. So that means they'll be more responsible. They'll not be littering everywhere. My cats don't even poop in the house. So they train, if I have to lock the door they will go poop in the bathroom like in that hole for water to flow in. That's what they do. And I would want to know when you want medical services for them how easy it is. I call my vet, it's called Kohenon 30. So I just call him like, bro. It's still anatoa matemingi kwa mdome WhatsApp. Ulimpati anini, ulimpati anini. So I understand, ulimpati anini. So he comes, then he treats them. Like the day my cat died. Wewe, wewe, toka apo. Toka. Uku, kilamtu. Kapo chini. So when Tonic's dad died I call Luta. Luta was very handsome, dark white spots. So when he died, I felt really bad. He fell from like the ninth floor. So I called Kohen and he told me, bro, it's a matter of time. So you just give it like a few weeks. Enjoy the last days. And then people find me weird. Then I skinned I removed the skin and then I kept it for memorabilia because people do that, it's normal. So you still have the skin? Yes, yes I do. Your emotions are very attached to them. So what happens when you are away? When I am away, like I said before I have good people who are pet friendly. My fellow parents. So they say, I can check on them. I will go check on them, I will see them because you need to see them in the morning and in the evening and sleeping is not a problem but that nice place they sleep in cozy and wake up when they feel like but I don't limit their freedom. If they feel, if they knock on the door they want to chill in the house. I just let them chill in the house. And I would want to know the pets you have the dogs and you have the cats in a month roughly how much do you spend on them? Whoa, whoa. That's a lot of money, man. That's a lot of money. I would want to have pets. Like I told you, you sure you want pets? Would you love pets? It's not an easy job. So like I told you, let's talk about medical, let's talk about food and let's talk about their general well-being. Because sometimes you buying cut food is very expensive very, very expensive. Especially if you live in an apartment you have to buy cut litter. Cut litter goes for like a thousand goben above. The best is like two thousand so it's bought. It's a diatomite or something. That mineral they use to make the litter. So when I want to miangapo kisha you exchange again you do but now when I move to them in this compound I had to take them out to use the outside. Because at the end of the day when they poop outside the poop becomes useful. It becomes manual of some sort I guess. Alright So could we get to see the kitten? Let me bring him. Alright but he's bringing the kittens. This is Toniko Stella. Oh this is Tonik. Hi Tonik. Okay, can I carry Tonik? Kujo. Tonik and Itaki. Oh Do they have names? Yeah if they are female this is Queen Elizabeth. This is Princess Diana and this is Queen Victoria. I hope they are all female. Oh Okay you can't tell whether they are male or female? No you can't tell. You have to wait a minute so that those regions pop out. Oh okay. And how old are they? They are basically like five days. Five days I believe so. You see they are still blind. Yeah So these are my babies. Oh Eh no, not atuwa. And what's the relationship between the dogs and the cats? What do you want there? Wait Like waneza mkula? The cats and dogs have been in running war since 1950 so it's a war that we can't get in between but now they have to understand and live. Okay you can't return them. They need to be warm and it's raining guys. Hi is this Taska or Bosco? There's a lot of pets in this house. A lot of pets in this house. Okay everybody Wait wait wait Okay it's raining but I really wanted to see where they stay. Yeah so what happens? Inside the canal It's a canal. There's no it depends on there's no there's nothing special about it. I have no fancy so much to have them like put a radio inside. It's just a small bedding na wakaituwa but they don't like it. They lack being outside. Assuming I would want to get up it Now advise me. Don't get up it. Why? Because it's commitment. A few days ago my friend called me one of a popular comedian. Is that Mula Moa? She called me and she said hi Antonio. I want to give out my cut. I'm tired. He's been all over and he's crying throughout the night and I told him if your baby today would you like say you want to give out the baby because it's a commitment. You have to be there for real for real. It's like you cannot so you have to you have to find out what's wrong with the baby. So why do you want to give us because they are pooping. That's what it is to own a pet and if it means that you're willing to give them out it means you are not ready to be trusted even a few things because you're impatient. That's how you judge people. There are ladies who if I meet maybe I want to take them out on a date like you have talked, you have cut why do you have cuts. The moment you tell me that I'm on a date with you and then you ask me why do I have cuts oh shh that's the end. I don't care how beautiful you are I don't care how pretty or rich or famous you are I feel like me giving back to society because this is giving back to society is bad then I think we can be together because dogs and cuts are very messy and it's not easy that's why when you want to date someone you date someone who it affects every part of your life there are people, there are ladies who tell you it's either the me or the dogs and I'm like who is the dogs it's the dogs it's me or the dogs that's the life so you have to come to me and accept my baggage and those are my dogs my cuts so if you are crashing on Antonio now pende pets don't crash on me ladies I have so many problems I come with don't crash on me oh wow so now that having pets you have to choose where you live has that been an issue no it's not been an issue because I've always wanted because right now I'm working on constructing my own house that's my biggest project that I've been focusing on for the longest time that's my vision so I've always wanted to move out to a non-compound and I would say then the puppies if anything they are motivation they're like tonic at tonic boss kutasuka kujeni apa kilantu kujapa wacha and I would want to know for what's the lifespan of pets like dogs like the saddest thing about having pets is always be prepared for an early exit for them because they don't last long they don't stay the scientists are working on a way that pets could last longer but until that time we would have to deal with the few 18 years we have with them 15 years dogs when a dog gets to 13 years that's like 200 years normal human being so it's cats live to 18 dogs live to 15 15 years only so I have a few years with them so I have to capitalize give them love until they they get to the time they say but me as an African I don't believe in putting down animals like the way they do it in the West Nations when a dog is about to die it's like oh we have to put him down I'm not going to put you down let nature work that's why African dogs live to up to like una pada dogina kata yata 18 years naiko strong so that's what I want and I want them to live organically dogs are very dogs can eat everything let's talk about Stella's husband who passed away husband passed away Luther sad story man so Luther Luther is a male cat and that's why I will always advise people not to have male cats because at some point they would want to get out and when they want to get out they will hear other female cats austrosizing that's the word austrosizing outside and calling and they would want to go out so it's a risk it's a risk and a liability too because the most time I spent with the male cat it wanted to go out it was growling and stuff like that so it decided to leave sometime I left my window open and then it jumped out and when it jumped out because there is a small space between where people lean over like on the balcony on the outside it jumped and then it fell over and when it fell over I think it broke its backbone and some sides of the intestine so when I picked him up it was so sad to see because he couldn't walk he couldn't do anything he was crying the whole time so 3-4 weeks come on, watch any watch jokes come on, watch play play play play where? stop it so here you can imagine 5 months you can imagine what they look like in like double the month like 10 months and have you had cases of them going to the neighbors house biting the neighbors kid no they cannot do that because they cannot do that if they do that then we would have a problem for so long Inje and then we choose Inje bus now that these are male do you have plans of them having children they are going under the knife they are going under the knife because because I can't have them giving me back I want them to be strong dogs healthy dogs what do you mean going through the knife castration oh you are going to castrate them yes they are going to be castrated I will call kohen and they will come and do the deed so dogs can be castrated yes of course dogs are castrated and female ones are spayed they do surgery which I don't like I don't prefer female cuts because sometimes they end up becoming very dull so for female I just let them be because I can limit how they walk outside and how they interact so I don't have any plans for them to have puppies so we will have them castrated so that they can be healthy okay well that's interesting to know about and you have like a community of dog lovers pet lovers all over you know the former Miss Kenya what was her name the anti-juga campaign lady Cecilia she has this amazing community she has a pet shop actually which is amazing she has branches all over we have these events for dogs where people go share things breeds and people get to see competition for dogs actually healthy ones and stuff like that I don't go to those events mostly because I'm not into those I'm not there to add for me there to what? to add for me so I would rather just go with them to Ngongro then do some gangster shit so do you have like a dogs day out where you all go out? Sundays probably we would go for drives then let them go out there then we come back that's what they do stop it and what do we call this thing they have around their neck yeah it's called this one here it's just a normal tag it's a normal dog tag that you put the leash on and do they sleep throughout the night do you have like to wake up and check up on them especially the cats? these guys don't sleep the cats can sleep for 12 hours 12 hours a day but dogs they could sleep and not too much because these guys are playful the whole freaking time I have problems with them every time and you have the dogs for protection am I just leisure? I don't think I don't think I would have say dogs I'm having them as these are not god dogs they're not working for me I'm working for them these are not god dogs they are bred to be god dogs they are African god dogs they breed they do all this stuff they protect that's what they are but me I would treat them differently I was like you guys want freedom you would be in the street there probably just have your freedom because I can help you guys that's how affectionate I am to animals it's not just dogs if one day I have my own ranch I pray to god that one day I own my own ranch I'd have so many animals that's my dream to have a place where people can bring those retired animals they can have the last days we could have a cemetery for them those are my things people find it weird but come on human beings can really let you down every person you meet in life will let you down even if you go on YouTube you'd see so many animals coming through for man in a very different way so man has failed man has failed you has failed me you've gone through heartbreaks maybe and you know what that means so to avoid constant human pressure animals become emotional support animals they help you out stress they calm you down they can tell you emotions dogs can tell so many things cats can tell so many things so it's more spiritual than people think and that's how I love animals so much that they even influence my diet so it's a deep thing so you as a vegetarian did it start when you started keeping pets how might this been you since I used to eat meat but not eat it it's a thing I want I'd like to tell my mum because I really hated meat I really really hated meat and my dad never consumed meat soft drinks or alcohol so I think I took over from him because I don't indulge in alcohol I don't eat meat I could eat fish I could eat organic chicken trust me I'm being honest because I'm like why am I doing this so it's it's deep to me I have to speak to the chicken and say I'm sorry it's not that personal I'm sorry and you mentioned that you would want to get a parot which other animals would you like to get are you serious like Joho is living the life right now yes girafs you want a giraffe can imagine having a giraffe in your compound like you have parots and then like me I would love to have those endangered species like the rare animals I would love to conserve them when you find those animals that do not exist anywhere else except this place so you can have them and keep them and keep growing the population so that they have another chance at existence because most animals do not have a standard chance in the next few years your children will not see a rhino your children will never see a rhino as it hit you that your child will never see a rhino they will only see it in the katu or maybe the ones that are dried up because we've completely annihilated and finished an entire species if you count the amount of animals that have gone extinct even trees even animals even plant species that have gone extinct you will be shocked in 100 years from now we will not have lions we will not have lions because back in the 60s not even too long ago there used to be over 10,000 lions roaming the Masaimara right now there are barely 200 you know what I mean so my point is we are assuming maybe God is not blessing some of us because nili kuleonado wu kaipiga teke you know and you see sometimes you wonder why these other people are blessed on the other side because someone would post like you see them on tiktok like someone would tell us a journey of how they picked up a cart how they grown with it until they have this and this it's a blessing sometimes so many views because it's sometimes the blessing you can't ignore certain things that's why you see you see why the Masaimara have a very good relationship with cows the Indians have a good relationship with cows, monkeys they roam freely like if you go to India there are places where monkeys are just on the streets so for me I believe in the universe you see like the way birds are aligned you know what that is birds can tell when there is floods they can tell when a lot of rain is coming that's why you will see when it's raining you will see a certain species of birds then when there is no rain you will see a certain species of birds so we forget what animals are doing to the ecosystem we totally forgot we don't remember that when you have an animal defecate somewhere it's manua for the forest so if we keep finishing animals then we will not have a world to live in and as we got here to make pacha pekeako and the dogs, the companion and the cats Amma Antonia Konand it's a choice I'm single and I love it that way because I doubt that there is any lady right now who can love me for who I am they will come for their own reasons so many will come for their own reasons and I don't fall for that so I'd rather chill chill with my puppies laugh about it so I'm very single I have a daughter though but I'm very single I don't want to say my name but I mean SPM buzz you see her eyes please stop it butita I'm addressing you butita I told you when you do this interview
