oh that’s such a shame you felt that way :( especially if you enjoyed her content before - what is it about her choosing WLS in particular that bothers you?
Just because I feel it is such an extreme length to go to and often more about a quick-fix to solve some internalised hatred than it is about health, because the surgery often leads to so many long term complications. Plus she used to talk and joke about being chubby and I thought she was confident in herself but maybe I'm wrong.

She’s doing the angling thing to make herself look slimmer than she is. Oh, Catherine. You used to be so real.

The ramblings of a fantasist and just an excuse to do the hard “selling out quickly” shill.

Why would you put an apple that you're about to eat on (essentially) the ground like this 🤢

OMG how can someone waffle so much, all the time she's babbling she could be getting on with work. People answered her packaging question with a don't worry about it as it ends up in the bin so she wastes time waffling on about designing stickers to put on her bumblebott packets. Would her American orders encounter import tax?

She knocked the drawing of the tulips out in double quick time. Nothing she does ever seems to be fully considered, she has an idea and executes it in the hope that it’s going to sell. Also, sticking stuff to walls? Who thinks that’s a good idea at home?
I noticed at the start of the vlog she showed a label that said Catherine Kay in massive letters and “at Katnipp” in tiny letters. Girl thinks her name is bigger than her brand now?

She clearly has a lot of self confidence when it comes to her work too (something I find unique when it comes to creative people = they’re usually full of doubt or don’t rate their work) whereas she seems to think everything she creates is “so cute!” Finding it hard to find her genuine anymore tbh as she’s clearly putting on an act for camera
I think she watched way too many how-to videos on content creation and better social media engagement to the point she lost what made her likeable in the beginning. She morphed herself into an "entertainer" persona but people can see it's all an act for the camera.

Just watched some of it and this is exactly how it comes across. Moan moan moan about how hard it is having to come back from her 12th holiday of the year and make a decision.
She just wants to sit in a cottage drawing, don’t we all?
Beatrix Potter’s estate doesnt need to make stickers because she is actually talented, iconic and original. Companies want a piece of that cake.
Let’s be honest, her customers were ALWAYS buying for the product over the art itself. What I mean by this is, if someone needed kawaii style stickers, they might go to Katnipp. No one is going to Katnipp to look at Bumblebutt’s latest release because it’s just a cartoon bee.

I’m sorry but she comes across as spoilt, arrogant and out of touch. Would love to see her work a creative 9-5 role and cry that it’s not aligned with what’s in her heart.
She is hoping some big chain shop will want to license her products, like rainylune has her items in Daiso and I think Box Lunch or Barnes & Noble. But her frog brand is way more iconic online than Bumblebutt or Gingie pubes.

She decides to do a new product. Phone lanyards. Waffles on about it for five minutes then says she’s going to design it this week. Makes not on laptop to do list “design and send off lanyards”. Then she tells us she’ll put “an hour or two” aside to do that and to ring around suppliers. So that’s a completely new product line designed and sourced in “an hour or two”. Sorry but this is not a serious business.
This woman. There is absolutely no business plan. Or rather, she plans, but it's always in vain, because she doesn't ever stick to her plan. She's always behind, then puts herself further behind by running with new ideas instead of executing on the ones she'd planned for. She is only suited for the creative side, and not the actual admin or operations, but she takes no steps to improve the admin or operations of her business, so she just keeps circling down this same whirlpool of laughably predictable detours into new products that were never part of the year's plan. I don't want to armchair diagnose but ADHD much?

Mike probably gets delegated everything 😂

I don’t think she’s that passionate about the art business any more. I believe she keeps it up more a means to protect her following which facilitates what she wants to do - be an adventuring travel vlogger.

I'm just waiting for the 'shall we' merch 🤢🤑

And to give your husbands brother the power of attorney? Bit of a high risk strategy if she ever ran into problems with Dean. Him and Mike could wipe her out. Why not choose a member of your own family?
It's interesting that Katnipp Studios is solely in her name. Maybe she is a bit wiser than we thought after seeing the Brothers Grimm have had 2 businesses struck off.

It’s like she’s trying to cheat her way around only being able to eat smaller portions, rather than making that her new way. So the weight is going to go back on because she’s eating the same
On the Japan travel day they had a meal at the airport, three good sized meals plus snacks on the flight, then she walloped down a 7 Eleven beef curry with rice and a cream bun in bed. She’d have consumed the bag of pickled plums too if they hadn’t turned out to be sour. (clue is in the name, Catherine). I see no attempt to control portions.

I think she should make a colouring book with her characters, thats all in trend at the moment. I think I’d actually buy it lol.
She should at least give you credit for her colouring page idea…
