As she adored her naturally curly hair, Pokimane interacted with her viewers during the beginning of the stream, when her new kitten was featured on camera.

Playing with him and interacting with her viewers, the Moroccan-Canadian streamer read out a message from a viewer who wanted to know the kitten's name.

Reading out the viewer's question and answering it, the streamer said:
