Podcasts about Animal rescue

We start this episode with a movie review from Hope of the new pro-animal film The Sheep Detective. Then we move into a conversation with Kathy Cullen, founder of Jolene's Retreat. Kathy and Hope discuss rescues and the residents of Jolene's Retreat sanctuary. Kathy has rescued numerous small “companion” pigs and they discuss the problem of breeding “potbelly” and “teacup” designer pigs. They also talk about the importance of animal's agency as well as friends and family units and how these are disrupted and broken up in animal agriculture and the psychological distress that can cause. But also how bonds of friendship form on sanctuaries and are not limited by species.When Kathy Cullen was 19, she decided to go vegetarian for health reasons, but morality quickly took a front seat after realizing that she no longer wanted to be a part of animal suffering. Kathy began reading about the problems with animal agriculture and the unbelievable suffering animals endure for food, entertainment, clothing, science, etc. and decided to get involved. She joined animal rights organizations, attended animal rights conferences, visited animal sanctuaries, and finally decided to start her own sanctuary. She bought 10 acres of land in Occidental, California in and in May 2023, Jolene's Retreat became a reality with their first rescue of a family of five pigs.Kathy will be presenting at Compassionate Living's Sonoma County VegFest on Saturday, September 26, 2026 in Santa Rosa, California. Resources:Jolene's RetreatSonoma County VegFest 2026Support this podcast:Hope for the Animals PodcastCompassionate LivingSocial Media:FacebookInstagramYouTube

Squatters have been in the news nationally and in Las Vegas recently, and under current Nevada law, even legitimate homeowners can find themselves powerless to remove unauthorized occupants quickly. So what needs to change? Then, local animal rescue Paws Patrol LV had its thermal drone destroyed mid-rescue by unhoused individuals, and a stranger from Montana stepped up to replace it. It raises a bigger question: why do some animal rescues have to rely on the kindness of strangers to fund life-saving equipment? Finally, one of Philly's most celebrated cheesesteak shops just opened its first location outside Philadelphia right here in Las Vegas, which got us thinking about some of the best sandwich shops around Vegas. Host Jesse Merrick breaks it all down with Executive Producer Layla Muhammad and Nevada Current Editor April Corbin Girnus.

Stitched Up Heart Release New Single "MEDUSA" featuring Lyric NoelNew Album Medusa Out Now via Judge & Jury Records A Fierce Anthem of Empowerment and Transformation, "Medusa" Finds Frontwoman Mixi Confronting Betrayal Head-On and Emerging Stronger Than Ever! In 2026, Stitched Up Heart began a bold, defining new chapter with their fourth album, MEDUSA, released on Judge & Jury Records. The album is spearheaded by the fierce, internet-culture rock anthem "GLITCH BITCH" featuring Conquer Divide, & the bloodthirsty women-empowering heater "CANNIBAL" featuring Heidi of Butcher Babies. "'Medusa' is about finally flipping the script on something that has tried to curse you. A battle cry for the women who were betrayed and serving justice by venom with a smile," explains Mixi. "Writing this song felt like clearly recognizing a betrayal, shedding your own skin, and spitting out the venom that was meant to poison you by claiming your power back. It's the perfect mirror — I'm not the girl getting gaslit and nauseous anymore. I'm the one with the Medusa stare turning problems to stone unapologetically. I'm not asking for permission anymore. I am here — I'm reborn, venomous, and ready." The song's message of rebirth extends throughout the accompanying music video, which was filmed in Dallas, Texas and draws heavily from ancient Greek mythology and imagery. Inspired by the legend of Perseus and Medusa, Stitched Up Heart flips the traditional narrative on its head. Rather than being slain by the Greek hero, the video's twin Medusas rise up and take control of their fate, ultimately defeating Perseus themselves. The concept originated with Mixi, who envisioned the striking visual of twin Medusas sharing a bathtub as a central image within the video's dreamlike and mythological world. The video's themes mirror the song's message of shedding old skin, embracing transformation, and emerging stronger from betrayal and adversity. Adding to the experience was a live snake featured in the production. Mixi shared that despite snakes often being portrayed as dangerous or sinister, the animal used on set couldn't have been more different. "The snake was actually scared of me," she recalled. "It had the sweetest soul and wasn't evil at all like people often portray snakes to be." "The songs were written with the live show in mind," says Mixi. "We wanted the energy to translate directly to the stage and create moments where people could let loose and embrace their inner crazy." While the title track and lead single "Medusa" features a standout guest appearance from Lyric Noel, the album also includes collaborations with an impressive roster of artists, including Lauren Babic, Eyes Set to Kill, Conquer Divide, Butcher Babies, Nonpoint, NOAPOLOGY, Austin John Winkler (The Founder), and Geena Fontanella. Beyond the stage, Mixi continues to use her platform to advocate for more women in rock and metal while actively volunteering with multiple animal rescue organizations throughout Southern California. Tracklisting:1) LOVE AND DEATH (feat. Austin John Winkler)2) SICK SICK SICK (feat. Lauren Babic & Eyes Set To Kill)3) GLITCH BITCH (feat. Conquer Divide)4) CANNIBAL (feat. Butcher Babies)5) MEET ME AFTER LIFE (feat.

Pet Protect and Connect: Using AI to Simplify Pet Adoption for Shelters, Rescues and AdoptersHost Julie Marty Pearson welcomes Liz Adams to The Story of My Pet podcast to discuss Liz's longtime background in animal rescue and her career in healthcare technology and communications, which inspired her to create Pet Protect and Connect. Liz explains how shelters and rescues often lack time and modern tools, and how difficult or inconsistent adoption processes can deter good adopters while still risking poor matches and returns. Her platform, Pet Protect and Connect, focuses first on helping rescues by organizing and ranking applications using weighted criteria and an AI-driven learning component that highlights top positives/negatives and produces match scores, while keeping humans in control of final decisions. The tool can also help adopters by auto-populating repeat applications via a plugin and keeping qualified adopters in the system for future matches. Listeners can learn more or request demos on the Pet Protect and Connect Website or via the app and website waitlist. Follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

From Shelter Work to Nomad Life: Katherine Lacefield on Rescue, Fundraising, and Ending Judgment in Animal WelfareIn this episode of The Story of My Pet podcast, host Julie Marty-Pearson is joined by Katherine Lacefield who shares how early involvement in environmental and animal rights movements led her into shelter work, fostering, and the realities of overcrowding and euthanasia. Now living a highly nomadic life, she explains why she delayed getting pets, then расскаnts how she welcomed a healthy French Bulldog, Chaco, and later rescued Mr. Pickles—a severely neglected stray in Mexico who needed extensive treatment and ultimately became family. Katherine also discusses the complexity of moving pets across countries and how animal welfare intersects with human issues like domestic violence, addiction recovery, homelessness, and immigration. As a fundraising consultant, she explains why she focuses on building nonprofit fundraising capacity, and she urges more gratitude, monthly giving, fostering, adopting, and less judgment and infighting in the animal welfare community.

Jinhai said compassionately.Zh: 小翼看了看身边的美玲，心中下定决心一定要救下这只熊猫。En: Xiaoyi glanced at Meiling beside him, determined to rescue the panda.Zh: 他知道这是一个展现自己勇敢的好机会，也许能让美玲对他刮目相看。En: He knew this was a great opportunity to demonstrate his bravery, and perhaps gain Meiling's admiration.Zh: 然而，脚下的长城已经不再稳固，不远处的另一群拾荒者也在虎视眈眈。En: However, the Changcheng underfoot was no longer stable, and another group of scavengers was eyeing them not far away.Zh: “我们必须小心，”小翼说道，他的声音带着些微紧张，“那些人也在找机会抢夺资源。”En: "We must be careful," Xiaoyi said, his voice tinged with slight nervousness, "those people are also looking for a chance to seize resources."Zh: 几条通往熊猫的路都残破不堪，更糟糕的是，其中一条路非常高。En: Several paths leading to the panda were in disrepair, and worse, one of them was very high.Zh: 小翼有恐高症，每走一步都让他心惊肉跳。En: Xiaoyi had a fear of heights, and every step was nerve-wracking for him.Zh: 但他知道，自己无论如何都不能退缩。En: But he knew he couldn't back down no matter what.Zh: “是否可以试试借用那些藤蔓？”金海提议，像是读出了小翼的顾虑。En: "Could we try using those vines?" Jinhai suggested, as if reading Xiaoyi's concerns.Zh: “好主意！”美玲点头称赞，眼中闪着光。En: "Great idea!" Meiling nodded in approval, her eyes shining.Zh: 小翼深吸了一口气。En: Xiaoyi took a deep breath.Zh: 他努力克服恐惧，在美玲和金海的帮助下，编织出一根足够结实的藤绳。En: He worked to overcome his fear, and with the help of Meiling and Jinhai, wove a vine rope strong enough.Zh: 他大胆地抓住藤绳，从高处荡下。En: He boldly grabbed the vine rope and swung down from the height.Zh: 风呼啸而过，小翼的心跳如雷，但他坚持住了，最终成功抵达了熊猫的身边。En: The wind howled past, and Xiaoyi's heart pounded like thunder, but he held on and finally reached the panda's side.Zh: 熊猫看着小翼，似乎意识到得救了，高兴地叫了几声。En: The panda looked at Xiaoyi, seeming to realize it was saved, and called out happily.Zh: 在小翼的努力下，他们顺利地带着熊猫安返地面。En: With Xiaoyi's efforts, they successfully returned to the ground safely with the panda.Zh: “你真了不起，小翼！”美玲赞叹不已，眼中带着欣赏的光。En: "You're amazing, Xiaoyi!" Meiling exclaimed in admiration, her eyes filled with appreciation.Zh: 就在这时，熊猫用爪子拨弄着地面，露出了一个藏于长城底部的宝藏。En: At that moment, the panda used its paw to paw at the ground, revealing a treasure hidden at the base of the Changcheng.Zh: 里面是一大袋珍贵的物资。En: Inside was a large bag of precious supplies.Zh: “看来我们这次不仅救了熊猫，还得到了额外的奖赏。”金海笑着说。En: "It seems we've not only saved the panda but also received an extra reward," Jinhai said with a smile.Zh: 小翼惊讶地看着这一切，心中充满了自信。En: Xiaoyi looked at everything in surprise, filled with confidence.Zh: 他知道，这一次突破自我是值得的。En: He knew that breaking through his fears was worth it this time.Zh: 三人之间的默契和友谊也因此更加深厚，再次踏上了新的征程。En: The tacit understanding and friendship among the three of them deepened, as they embarked on a new journey once more.Zh: 长城的薄雾依旧笼罩，但他们知道前进的方向无比清晰。En: The mist over the Changcheng remained, but they knew the path ahead was incredibly clear.

Legacy of Ebenezer the Donkey. How One Animal Became a Local Community LegendIn this episode of The Story of My Pet podcast, Julie Marty-Pearson interviews Joe Dimino about his lifelong love of animals and the remarkable community bond formed around Ebenezer, a donkey in a roadside pasture near Grandview, Missouri. Joe shares how he and his son Miles (on the spectrum) regularly visited Ebenezer with carrots, how the donkey's loud bray and friendly personality drew countless neighbors to stop and connect, and how Joe's local newspaper feature and online videos helped spread Ebenezer's story. As Ebenezer aged and became ill, caregivers Randy and Shirley Phillips played a major role in supporting his care, including a stay at a horse hospital, and the community rallied with bumper stickers, memorial tributes, and even a parade float after his sudden death in 2010. Joe later created a digital book and website so Ebenezer's legacy—and the relationships he sparked—could live on.To learn more about Ebenezer the Donkey, visit the WebsiteJoe Dimino has been writing & creating in a variety of capacities since his college days at the University of Missouri-Kansas City somewhere around 1993. If you are keeping score, that would be about 29 years+. It all began at UMKCs University News as a Sports Writer & turned into a myriad of expressive avenues. Inventing poems, art, video & audio has always been in the proverbial cards. Follow Joe on Instagram and Facebook.

Multiple dog attacks in St. Louis have made local headlines and shown up on social media feeds this past week. The issue's not new, but data shows a marked increase in dangerous animal complaints in St. Louis in recent years. For residents like Slayden Figg, who was attacked by three loose dogs last year, the issue is so pervasive that he's decided to move out of the city. We talk with him about the attack and the physical, mental and financial hardships he endured from it. We also discuss the underlying causes behind these attacks, city enforcement of animal laws, irresponsible dog ownership, and how to stay safe during a dog attack with the medical director at the Center for Animal Rescue and Enrichment of St. Louis and an animal control supervisor with the City of St. Louis.
