Tonight, we'll read from Cat's Tales by Edith Nesbit, a collection of stories centered on the lives and antics of cats. If you enjoy this episode, be sure to check out the other “Cat Tales” episode that aired in September 2021, and also the fairy tale “The White Cat” that aired in July of 2020. Known for her sharp observations and straightforward storytelling, Nesbit presents these tales with a mix of realism and subtle irony, capturing the independence and inscrutability of her feline subjects. The stories reflect her ability to balance light fantasy with practical detail, a hallmark of her work. Edith Nesbit, born 1858, was a British writer and poet best known for her children's fiction, including The Railway Children and Five Children and It. A co-founder of the Fabian Society, she was politically engaged and influenced later fantasy writers with her blend of everyday settings and magical elements. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Nope. I don't own any cat costumes per say, however... I do have a super soft, warm and most comfortable adult cat design pj's! They were bought years ago, as a Christmas gift for traditional holiday photos. Picture with Santa Paws and the fur kids. Some years were serious attire, while others were light-hearted silly! If I had human kiddos... I would probably had chosen matching Disney themes. We are expecting negative degree weather, through early next week. So... you probably won't catch me playing with the fur kiddos in front of any windows.

Sharon Arsego is a lifelong Connecticut resident whose creativity, wit and appreciation for music were deeply fostered by an expressive Italian father and a more reserved, Czechoslovakian mother, among other artists and musicians in her family. Like many authors, Sharon started writing at a young age and, despite some stops and starts in life, continues to write, and now draw, as well. It has long been her dream to publish her work. Cadence is not only her debut book, but also the first from her private label, Swirl Ink Publications, named as a nod to the style of drawing her mother used to keep her occupied as a child. She considers herself fortunate for the experiences and mentoring provided to her over the years, including earning her B.A. in English Studies from St. Joseph College in West Hartford, CT. Sharon currently has a career with the City of Bristol, CT where she resides with her beloved feline companion, Big Mitts Mackenzie, aka Mack. Previous writing collaborations include: CD Release articles for Musician Robert C. Fullerton, Freelance Writer for CT Valley Post, Sales and Promotions at FM 97.3 WZBG, Founding of Team Teal and Warm Our Warriors (in memoriam blanket projects to honor her late parents), Newsletter Editor and Event Volunteer for Cat Tales feline rescue, and during Covid, The Sketchbook Project originally based in NYC. Cadence teaser: If you've ever spent time lakeside or in the deep woods, escaped to the sea or a nearby pond, spent time sprawled out in the grass or watched critters in their natural habitat, you're going to love the encompassing nature theme that runs through Cadence. Dragonflies, weeping willows, shipwrecks and all sorts are waiting for you between the pages of this debut collection spanning thirty years and over seventy poems by Connecticut resident, Sharon Arsego, herself a lifetime observer of wildlife and lover of the four signature seasons in the Nutmeg state. Cadence's easy to read style with a side of insight and sprinkling of humor will make you feel welcome, whether hearing the word "poetry" usually makes you cringe a little or jump for joy a lot. Take Cadence into your hands and see which of her poems also find room in your heart!

Today is Jamie's 38th Birthday I don't know what the occasion was, but I found this dated 3/23/1999 on WildLife on Easy Street letterhead: Jamie Veronica Murdock was born 7/16/80 in Tampa, Fl. She is 18 years old and graduated two years early, and as valedictorian of her school. She is an accomplished wildlife photographer as evidences by the photos in the enclosed brochure. Two years ago, when she graduated she had the world in her hands and could have gone anywhere and done anything. Her mother, Carole Lewis, had founded WildLife on Easy Street, Inc. a big cat sanctuary home to over 200 animals in 1992 with her husband, Don Lewis. August 18, 1997 Don Lewis disappeared, leaving Carole Lewis as a single parent with a real estate business to run and a refuge that cost the couple as much as $235,000.00 per year to keep open. Jamie Veronica had the option of traveling, going to college or pursuing her own photography career, but chose to stay home and help her mother in the day to day operation of WildLife on Easy Street, Inc. Jamie Veronica is now the President of WildLife on Easy Street, Inc., editor of Cat Tales, it's quarterly newsletter and is in charge of the office, phones, adoptions, memberships and co-ordinating events. She is a member of the volunteer committee which oversees over 100 wildlife volunteers. She is also in charge of raising all of the cubs and assists with the vaccinations, worming, feeding and medical attention of all of the animals living on Easy Street. She is the person on the brochure in the center photo, with her black leopard, Jumanji. She has successfully raised the only two White Servals in the world and has won many contests with her photography. She has taken on a huge endeavor and is the embodiment of a caring human being. - Carole Lewis I found this letter date June 18, 1997 Hillsborough County Arts Council c/o Art Keeble 725 E. Kennedy Boulevard #401 Tampa, Florida 33602 (813) 276-8250 Dear Mr. Keeble; I thought the idea of showcasing local artists in the County Center was a wonderful idea. As I was waiting in the County Commissioner's lobby I found it refreshing to be able to spend that otherwise wasted time in getting know more about the talent in the area. My husband, and my daughter help me care for a 40 acre wildlife sanctuary in Citrus Park that is home to over 200 orphaned, abandoned and abused animals, most of which are great cats. My daughter, Jamie Veronica has made a hobby of photographing these magnificent creatures and is now hoping to make a career of her love of photography. She is only sixteen years old and just graduated two years ahead of her time, as Valedictorian (she's being featured on Fox 28), and she now works full time at WildLife on Easy Street, Inc., doing everything from the newsletter to rescues. She took all of the photos in the attached colour brochure, except for the photo of herself, center back cover. She works in slides, prints and digital images and even does some of her own colour developing. She draws and paints and completed several murals for the walls of her school. She has won in two photo contests (she only entered two) and was published in the Photography Forum's annual last year. She has trained several animals, including Bobcats and has an eye for the essence that is the “cat”. She has saved and wisely invested her allowances and earnings since she was ten years old and has managed to put away over $8000.00. She was born at the Women's Hospital here in Tampa, Florida on July 16, 1980 and has always resided in Tampa. She has never had any formal training in any art field, but as you can see is a “natural”. Of course I am proud, but all of Tampa Bay can take pride in this exceptional person through your organization. For the Animals, Carole Lewis My CGI Butterfly landed right side up! I've been working on creating a CGI butterfly but it kept flying upside down and landing on his head, or turning inside out. Today the flight path was a bit jumpy, but I had a right side up, right side out landing, right on the o in BigCatRescue.org. Hi, I'm Carole Baskin and I've been writing my story since I was able to write, but when the media goes to share it, they only choose the parts that fit their idea of what will generate views. These are my views and opinions. If I'm going to share my story, it should be the whole story. The titles are the dates things happened. If you have any interest in who I really am please start at the beginning of this playlist: http://savethecats.org/ I know there will be people who take things out of context and try to use them to validate their own misconception, but you have access to the whole story. My hope is that others will recognize themselves in my words and have the strength to do what is right for themselves and our shared planet.

2004 Annual Report Advances: The biggest advance in our history was this year when we went from “Tampabay'sBest Kept Secret” to a Household Name in the local area. This was due largely to the great media exposure donated by six local Cox Radio Stations. Hillsborough County gave us big green directional signs in 5 locations to direct visitors to our door. For the first year ever, in our 12 year history, we were able to cover all of the sanctuaries expenses from its own income! Thank you everyone! Howard Baskin was able to find a reasonable CPA, Marsha Weiss, and an accountant who completed an audit for our finances for grant writing purposes. This enabled us to apply to the Combined Federal Campaign and to apply to the online version of The Better Business Bureau called Give.org. Christy Anderson launched our first E-zine that carries AdvoCat issues to 5000 subscribers and links to our electronic version of The Big Cat Times. Jamie finished a movie that was nearly five years in the making called “The Big Cat Picture“. This has been widely distributed and 2 minute clips on every species of wild cat has now been added to our website from the movie. We wrote a 20 year plan and began taking steps to reach our goal of eliminating the cause of so much suffering and abuse. Animal Care: We took in five new tigers and a lion, but had to turn away 114 big cats. We submitted our anesthesia machine parts to have one usable unit rebuilt. We built 5 new Cat-A-Tats with pools and dens and another multi-acre enclosure with dens and a pool. Built new dens for Esmerelda, Tobi, and Little Feather and cage enhancements for Sultan, Canyon, Genie, Maharajah, Bailey, Scratch, Baby Cakes and Hercules. Shere Khan and China Doll got a hurricane shelter and we repaired cages that were badly damaged from the four hurricanes in six weeks. The Enrichment team is growing stronger and more professional in their collaboration with others, such as Disney, to help write a comprehensive Enrichment Guide. Operant Conditioning has been led by Jennifer Ruszczyk with marvelous results. The cats are learning their cues and are much easier to handle for check ups. All of the volunteers have retaken their animal care classes this year and have re certified their credentials via testing. Dr. Liz Wynn, DVM has been donating time every week as a liaison to Dr. Stacie Wadsworth, DVM. We began using Truly Nolan for regular flea spraying and for rodent control with marvelous results. Staff and Volunteer Training: Attended the USDA's Big Cat Symposium. Jamie Veronica attended AZA's weeklong college course, Managing for Success. Jen, Howard and Carole attended and presented Operant Conditioning and Cage Building at The Association of Sanctuaries' annual conference in Stone Mountain, GA. Susan Mitchell attended Karen Pryor's Clicker Expo and spent some time with Gary Priest from the San Diego Zoo and quite a bit of time with his top trainer of cats. Susan also completed the Safe Capture course that some of our staff attended last year. Our volunteer program was overhauled to create an administrative branch for the first time in our history. We now have red through green level requirements on both the Keeper side and the Partner (admin) side and the proud recipients of those levels of accomplishment. We began our first Intern program with three interns. Cathy Mayeski has been screening applicants from around the world and by the year's end we have had 3 successful graduates from the program and two of them moved here to stay in the volunteer program. By the year's end we have 6 full time interns and by next year hope to have 12-15. They have come from Wales, Canada, Brazil, Spain, Peru and all across the U.S. The interns work all day, six days a week for three months in exchange for housing and the experience of a lifetime. They are a volunteer force unto themselves and now have their own Den Mother, Gale Ingham who keeps them busy and makes sure they get the most out of their time at Big Cat Rescue. Education: Hired Kathryn Quaas as our new Education Director and started offering regularly scheduled kid's tours every Saturday at 9 AM. Summer Camp 2004 was a big hit. We created, with the help of creator LaWanna Jones, and a grant from Ken and Terri Pereira, an interactive CD called The Truth About White Tigers and distributed 1000 free copies. With the help of PeTA we were able to distribute 1000 copies of their CD about veganism. Produced a new screen saver called 12 Tigers that has tiger photos and facts. Created an online game with the help of Point 2 Nature that children will be able to access online for free. It is a memory game of matching the cats with their fur and their sounds for fun fact rewards. Created hundreds of pages of online games, puzzles, calendars, free screen savers, quizzes, polls and colouring activities for children of all ages. These interactive games are part of our campaign to reach the schools and day care centers with activities to teach children about animals and to inspire awe and respect for their beauty and their rightful place in nature. Our Big Cat Expedition continues to be our most pervasive educational tool and Susan Mitchell has trained countless people in the Operant Conditioning program portion that we offer to illustrate the medical needs of the cats and how we meet them. Our tours continue to increase and this allows Denny Mitchell, Brian Czarnik, Bill Lewis and many other great tour guides to educate people about the plight of these animals in the wild and in captivity. The most frequent response that we still hear from guests is “I had no idea!”. Legislation: We reviewed the Captive Wild Animal Coalition‘s proposed sanctuary standards and wrote and submitted the sub section specific to felid care based upon a compilation of our own standards, those of ACE and Florida's Fish and Game. We assisted Animal Control's approach to the State of Florida in an effort to require owners of dangerous exotic animals to post on their property the dangers that exist and to allow the public to easily determine if their neighbors are harboring dangerous animals. We began promoting a page on our site called Support Legislation and AdvoCats. We partnered with Capitol Advantage to create the first and only online presence in the Animal Welfare industry that is promoted on MSN, Yahoo, AOL, Congress.gov, PBS, the LA Times and E-the-People. In just the first days of creation is already responsible for about 30 letters per day going out to legislators on important animal issues that are currently pending including: Stopping canned hunts, prohibiting steel jawed traps and asking USDA to quit issuing licenses to people who are circumventing the new 2004 law that prevents the sale of big cats as pets. We noted a drop in the number of big cats being abandoned. Every year the number of big cats in need of shelter was doubling and by 2003 we were turning away 312 exotic cats. After the passage of the Captive Wild Animal Safety Act in Dec. 2003 that prohibited the sale across state lines of big cats as pets that number dropped to 114 abandoned cats in 2004. We posted a composite of all state laws and enabled viewers to go directly to their state's online regulations. Our founder became a major donor to the only Political Action Committee fund for Animal Welfare issues called HumaneUSA. Fundraising and Marketing: We purchased a new Point of Sale system with cash register and inventory software. Implementing this software has enabled us to better track inventory, sales and trends. On May 19 our web site received 29,724 page requests to be our largest day ever. By the end of the year our site is currently averaging about 100,000 hits per day. Jamie and Howard attended Scott Moller's Fundraising Seminar in Tampa and Howard, Carole and Jen attended Scott Moller's Fundraising Seminar in Stone Mountain, GA. Scott Lope and Daniel Capiro have been working closely with players of the TampaBay Lightning to raise awareness. Thanks largely to the lion vs tiger ligers thousands of dollars in radio air time donated by six Cox Radio stations, our Fur Ball attracted 850 guests and we netted 50,000.00 as well as had a Roaring Good Time. Jamie created our first Holiday Card with a collage of the cats for our use and for sale in the gift shop. The Adoption Kits have been so successful that she has had to order them by the hundreds from a printer, rather than printing them one page at a time on her computer as she has done in the past. Our online giftshop sales soared from $7,914.00 in 2003 to $32,351.00 in 2004. We began monitoring news alerts at Google for exotic cat issues and proactively writing in to the media. We were in the press 63 times compared to 35 times in 2003. Our newsletter The Big Cat Times (formerly Cat Tales) is now in color and goes out quarterly to 23,000 supporters. Grounds Improvement: At our January zoning hearing, 96 people wrote letters of support and 47 attended the hearing and spoke in support of the fine work we are doing on a global level. At the second hearing more than 200 supporters came to stand before the Board of county Commissioners in favour of Big Cat Rescue's planned development. In the past we had to haul 30 bags of trash, twice a week to the end of the road. This year we managed to get our very own dumpster on site. We moved the golf cart shed, tore down the old green barn and re-routed the fencing to increase parking area. We repainted the cabins, food prep, painted the E-Center and repainted several of the cages. We installed new signs on the buildings so that they are consistently called by name in our documentation and training manuals and to avoid confusion. Sentry Signs enabled us to put new signs on most of the cats along the tour path that states their name, species, date of birth and how they were rescued. We began a fence improvement campaign called the Catter-Wall. Two marble lions were donated for our front gate and we may have someone willing to donate a new front entrance next year. Food Prep was tiled and had gutters installed all the way around. Kiss Cote was applied to the Leopard Cat-A-Tat as a rust preventative trial model in March. The roads were reinforced to prevent inaccessibility to certain areas in the rainy season. We started the process for adding a 4 bedroom, 3 bath dormatory for interns. We upgraded to broadband and now have a wireless Internet connection available for guests. Helping Others: We covered ad costs for The Association of Sanctuaries annual conference in March to insure that the people who need the training will know it is available. We also paid expenses for three of the speakers on Cage Building, Operant Conditioning and the No More Homeless Pets approach to companion animal abandonment. We shared the secret to our high search engine placement with TAOS and CWAPC and members of both organizations. We joined the Sanctuary Workers And Volunteers Association SWAVA and provided material for them to launch their campaign. We send out news alerts to everyone in our new Yahoo group and in the TAOS Yahoo group and include a Tip of the Day feature in which we share ideas that have worked for us. We gave permission to Florida's state government site, at their request, to use our photos to illustrate why we should protect the Florida Panther. Charities that we donated to this year: 100 passes to No More Homeless Pets Adopt-a-thon and gift certificate for a Big Cat Expedition, 50 passes and gift certificate for a Big Cat Expedition to Florida Voices for Animals, 50 passes to Clearwater High school's Project Graduation, 100 passes to Dress For Success, 300 passes to The National Humane Societies spay/neuter and adoption programs. Big Cat Expedition to Clearwater Chamber of Commerce's annual fundraiser. Donated a Big Cat Expedition and several Two for One Passes to Animal Coalition of Tampa for their Spay Day fundraiser. Big Cat Expedition for two and 200 passes to the Tampa Museum of Art. 1000 passes and a 1500. Expedition Package was donated to the Global Understanding's Carousel Ball. There were many, many more that we donated to this year that we did not keep stats on. We offered to let No More Homeless Pets – HC and Florida Voices for Animals utilize our legislative program in a manner that is branded for their constituents. Other: Carole Baskin represented The Association of Sanctuaries at the Captive Wild Animal Protection Coalition's conference in San Francisco and was made The Association of Sanctuaries liaison to The Captive Wild Animal Protection Coalition. She served as the interim President of the Association of Sanctuaries in 2004. 2004 was a grrreat year and we are looking forward to an even better 2005!!! The narrow mission of Big Cat Rescue is to provide the best permanent home we can for the limited number of abused, abandoned and retired big cats that the sanctuary can afford to take in. However, the sanctuary must turn away over 100 cats per year and the number is growing. The broader mission, therefore, is to reduce the number of cats that suffer the fate of abandonment and abuse by educating as many people as possible about the conditions that lead to the plight of these animals. We do this through our tours of the sanctuary, our school education programs, our 2100 page website that receives viewers from all over the world, by supporting species preservation efforts, and by providing a hands-on experience for interns from around the world. We hope, by setting an example and teaching about how animals should be treated, that this will carry over into how we humans treat each other as well, and in doing so make the world a better place for all living creatures.

How To Introduce Howie to The Family Carole writes Howie: Well you could set a calendar by my body. The next date to watch out for is Mar. 20, which works out perfect as I should be in Ft. Worth for the last of it and over it by the time we leave for NY. You mentioned that you were booking rooms and flights. Let me know what I owe you and I will bring a check. You agreed early on that I could pay my own way on trips. You also set the rule that if you ask me out somewhere locally you pay and the reverse is necessarily fair, so I put your 40.00 in the front cover of your book downstairs where Crystal sleeps. I can see that this could become a huge test of wills and creativity in trying to find some way to pass the money back and forth, if I didn't remind you of your own rule ;-) I am uncertain how to proceed with getting you and my family all around a table. I always pay everyone's way when our family gets together. My mother will sometimes try to fight me for the check, but usually concedes unless it is my birthday or something. My father doesn't eat with us unless it is my birthday or his. My extended family has no problem in letting me pay and none of my mates has ever had a problem with it, except Jay, but he made 400k a year and was in the habit of feeding huge troops of people that he called friends. I don't want to make you uncomfortable, but I don't want you paying the bill either, because just my brother's clan can be 5-8 people, so I am open for suggestions about how to handle this. If you want to split it with me at the time, I can reimburse you in cash privately later. I get a couple hundred in cash per month that I don't have to account to anyone for. (Jamie reimburses me for her insurance in cash each month, not anything weird...). I am late for the gym. - Carole Howie writes Carole: You have left me quivering this morning. Uncle....I concede on the $40 and will find it. It has always been my habit to play the traditional male role and pay for dates. And while the women I have dated have generally had careers, in most cases I was better off financially so this made sense. Most occasionally wanted to reciprocate, particularly if there was a reason like treating me for my birthday or as a special thanks for something, or just to participate occasionally. I'm not a fanatic about it, I just don't want you, out of past habit, thinking you have to bear the brunt of our entertainment expense. Separately, I think it is wonderful that you have been so financially successful, far more than I have. As far as I know, I don't have any big ego issues about that, but I think I would have a problem feeling that you were bearing the brunt of expense. If you were someone who enjoyed expensive things that I felt I could not afford, like exotic trips, there might be a problem because I think I would feel "kept" and be very uncomfortable. But you don't, so it does not appear to be an issue. Let's chat about family. Some thoughts: Gathering them all around a table is probably not a good way to meet them. One can only chat personally with one person or couple at a time. I'd be more inclined to meet your sister and brother on one occasion, your mom on another. If you dad does not tend to participate, it could be just lunch with your mom some time. And one way to avoid the check issue with your brother is we could do dinner here, which I would be delighted to do. If it is really important to you to pay for part of the food for that you can, but it really is not necessary. A better idea would be to let me do that, and then another time when we might eat out with them you can pay if you like. There is no rush or urgency either. I'm interested to meet your Mom and brother because they appear to be important parts of your life. But I don't feel left out or have any problem with not having met them or not meeting them, and I certainly don't want it to be something that causes you any stress. When you actively feel like you would enjoy our socializing with them is when we should. If I'm going to spend more time with your dad, can I borrow your skating helmet? :-) Re trip, when I spoke of splitting expenses I more had in mind a situation where we decided to take a vacation. Here, I've asked you to come to introduce you to friends and attend a function to keep me company and would gladly have paid. However, I have a feeling I'd lose that battle and find the cash tied to Crystal's tail or something. Probably easiest is if I pick up the airfare, and then as bills arise, like the various hotels and meals, you pick up some to approximate half. That way if you find you can deduct this as a business trip, you have discreet bills on your credit card rather than a check to me to work from. But happy to do whatever works best for you. I too get a few hundred a month that I don't have to account to anyone for - but only because the cats don't ask. I hope you are not too uncomfortable today. - Howie Carole writes Howie: Dear Howie, With each thought of you I smile and sigh deeply. Such a wave of peace courses through my veins. It often leaves me feeling there are no words to express the bliss and I am content to just feel you. It is so easy to be with you because you never seem to seek explanation from me and seem to know my heart, but I don't suppose that can always be the case and I wish to clarify something about a question you asked this morning. There is nothing in the Bible that says you have to "join" a local congregation to go to heaven. On the contrary the Bible states that when people obey God, that He adds them to His church in a universal sense. I obeyed when I was 12. When I say that I have never joined the church, I mean that I have never formally asked to be recognized as a member of the Church of Christ that worships at Citrus Park. To do so isn't anything terribly formal, but rather just for me to state that I wish to be a part of the group that meets there and they would announce to the congregation that I had asked to do so. There isn't any sort of voting, nor investigation, nor any other qualifying. There is a little directory of member's names and phone numbers that they compile for each other to stay in contact and I would be added to that list, but that is about the extent of it. Everyone there gets Cat Tales, so they all know how to reach me. As a member I would be expected to give financially as I have been blessed, but I have always done so anyway. The Bible tells us not to keep company with sinners because we are prone to be like the people we associate with. For that reason, even though I am always invited, I rarely ever attend potlucks in the park or anything where the "members" get together outside of worship just to socialize. I don't want young people growing up in the church to think that it is okay to live like I do just because they see that I am otherwise a good person. This is part of the same reason that I have never asked to be recognized as a part of this group. Anyone who knows me would argue that my sex life outside of an approved marriage shouldn't be enough to keep me from Heaven and I am hoping that God will be as lenient, but it is a bad example that is almost made worse by the fact that I am well loved there. If I could live my life by two words, it would be: No Excuses. I don't make them for myself and I don't want others making them for me. I have chosen the life I live and no one is responsible for it but me. You do not cause me to fail in my responsibilities to God nor as an example to others. I was failing just fine before I met you. :-) It is sort of a moment by moment failing at that. I don't believe that the ends justify the means. My sin is in my attitude of making my desires more important than doing what I believe to be right. I don't believe that it is okay to have premarital sex with you based upon the hope that one day it will be post marital sex and thus justified. I know myself well enough to know that if it weren't with you then it would have been with someone else, because I need the intimacy. Now, perhaps, it would be the Teal Rabbit, but he wasn't a player before. Does he count? ;-) All of this is a lot more verbiage than was probably necessary to let you know that I am not agonizing over this. I am not being kept from anything and there is no pressure on you to change the status quo. "The universe is unfolding, exactly as it should" to quote the song. I am enjoying every moment of that unfolding. - Carole Howie write Carole: Hmmm - will have to research that. Actually, I got us what I think is a good deal on a 4 star hotel right at corner of central park. From it we can walk to the Metropolitan Museum of Art through the park Friday afternoon. Was thinking you were going to let me know if you would be visiting tonight? Very happy to have you here, but totally up to you and how you are feeling. On a marketing note: "It's one thing to go to Busch Gardens, it's another to stand three feet from a tiger!" But if you don't want to negative comparison, we could alter make the Busch Gardens something more generic. - Howie I've been writing my story since I was able to write, but when the media goes to share it, they only choose the parts that fit their idea of what will generate views.

Flashback to 2019 - Agnes was helping Mar Sulaika realize her vision of a website to represent her online. It's such a personal piece of property, your online home. A slightly shorter episode today as Two Boomer Women really got into the minutiae of design and we didn't want to bore with you too much of that! As an aside, your take-away from this episode is that you should be firm with your wishes when it comes to your website, and so much of the fine tuning can be done with the click of a mouse. Don't be intimidated - Do It! Interesting flashback today as tomorrow (in real time) Agnes meets with another artist, this time a musician friend, to discuss his vision for a website. Maybe it's a Spring-thing. Today's episode begins and ends with cat tales - Kashi and Cat. Kashi is Mar Sulaika's mom's cat but currently her responsibility, getting older... preparing for the death of a loved pet is not easy. Somewhere in there you'll hear a brief mention of this podcast, which was still just an idea this time last year!

Rachel and Grahamm do another classic podcast episode of Are You Proud of Me, filled with the normal segments: Cat Tales, Stories From Our Past (or future), Are You Proud of Me, and Raunchy Questions. Rachel's getting over a cold when they recorded this episode,and they also recorded it on real microphones and a mixer instead of a cell phone, so it should sound better, right?

Cats were organized and ran the back yards of East Harlem in 70s and 80s. And like the wise guys on the Avenue - the wise cats in the yards provided entertainment and danger around the Stoops of Atlantis. Music:Love Cats - The CureRags to RichesGodfather ThemeFur Flies - by Donna DiCerto
Special guest CJ returns to sample a bit of Cat Tales, a sprawling fanwork that manages to win us over despite none of us having any investment whatsoever in Catwoman and Batman making out. Alfred is the best human being. We avoid making any DuckTales jokes until the very end. Be proud of us. Link to the fanfic: bit.ly/rfrcattales Three friends read old fanfiction that they think might be good. Sometimes they are right. Sometimes they are not. Check out our website at bit.ly/retrofanfic and send us emails at RetroFanficRetrospective@gmail.com
Without getting that Ducktales theme song stuck in your head (too late), Matty and Sandy discuss how Cat Tales isn't really just Stardew Valley with cats. Sandy then praises Pokemon Let's Go (and only calls Eevee shit once), while also washing out the taste of Fallout 76 with a return to Fallout 4.

Cattitude - Cat podcast about cats as pets on Pet Life Radio (PetLifeRadio.com)
All across the nation, news stories about pets make us laugh, make us cry and sometimes make us mad. This episode of the Cattitude Channel focuses in on several of these stories and how they related to our cats. First, learn about a family in Washington whose 15 year old cat was euthanized at the local shelter just a few days after wandering away from home. Was it a needless death or is there more to this story? Next, a judge in Los Angeles has prohibited city shelters from funding or promoting local Trap-Neuter-Return programs. Was this a good decision or not? We also delve into a story on how more rabies cases are being found across the US and whether or not this can affect your cat. Finally, in two controversial stories, we tackle a discussion on the decision of West Hollywood, CA to ban the sales of puppies and kittens in pet stores and we find out that your donations to the Humane Society of the United States might not be going where you want them to go..
