Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I'm pleased to share new stories with you from Chicken Soup for the Soul: What I Learned from My Cat, which is our latest best-selling book of cat stories. We spent two years collecting stories for this book so there is a huge variety of topics in it, but I have to say that one of my favorite subthemes in any cat book we publish is what I like to call Time-Share Cats. Somehow these clever little furry pets, if you can call them pets – maybe we are THEIR pets, right? – well anyway these beautiful creatures often figure out how to live with more than one family at the same time, with no one the wiser.

On this episode of Cattitude, host Michelle Fern dives into the fascinating world of cat influencers with Ashley, CEO of Pet Influencer Secrets and proud cat mom to Chip — the “world's most famous Manx cat” — and Biscuit, her adorable calico sidekick. Ever wondered what it really takes to turn your cat into a social media star? From storytelling and brand collaborations to behind-the-scenes realities (including picky cats and litter mishaps!), Ashley shares insider tips on how everyday cat parents can build authentic audiences — and even turn content into a business. They also tackle the rise of AI in pet content, how to avoid brand scams, and why emotional connection — not just cute photos — is the secret to success.

Join EEG legend Jay Gunkelman (500,000+ brain scans read) and host Pete Jansons for a thorough exploration of Sensorimotor Rhythm (SMR) — the calming, stabilizing brainwave discovered by Barry Sterman.From cats trained on SMR that resisted toxic rocket fuel seizures (NASA origins) to modern uses in ADHD, epilepsy, insomnia, fibromyalgia, and arousal regulation — this episode breaks down the science, circuits, and clinical realities.✅ Key Topics Covered:Barry Sterman's breakthrough: SMR-trained cats survived rocket fuel doses that caused vomiting, panting, salivating, and seizures in controls (ruined the dose-response curve)Brain circuitry: Thalamus (ventroposterior lateral nucleus) + reticular nucleus (acetylcholine bursts) → sensory-motor cortex feedback → red nucleus quieting → muscle spindle relaxationSMR as daytime "sleep spindle": Stabilizes red nucleus (Parkinsonism target), cuts sympathetic drive, deeper muscle relaxation, reduces sensory feedback to thalamusBenefits: Epilepsy stabilization, fibromyalgia (quiets sympathetic input to red nucleus), ADHD clusters (excess theta/alpha, beta compensation), arousal-performance curve centeringRisks: Overtraining SMR drops arousal too far → underarousal/grogginess/rebound giddiness (like kids pre-bedtime); counter with anterior beta (17Hz functional beta on tasks)Arousal-performance: SMR = brakes (calms overarousal); beta = accelerator (fixes underarousal); no fixed sessions (10 for mild insomnia, 24+ for severe)ADHD insights: Frontal suppressor strip → caudate/putamen/globus pallidus/thalamus loop (excess GABA inhibition); beta magnitude increases (more events, not amplitude)

The hilarious actor Vella Lovell is a put-upon director of an animal control precinct in the sitcom Animal Control, a role that involves much more animal contact than one would expect for an office job. Turns out Vella, who also played the neighbor Heather on Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, has a natural knack for helping animals calm down. This was evident in her long process of introducing a new kitten, XX, to her household, which already included a veteran resident cat, YY. Sleepyheads, the process took weeks of gentle, gradual exposure under highly controlled conditions, and we're pleased to report that it was a complete success. XX and YY are, today, best buddies. We think you'll be fast asleep before you ever get to that happy friendship moment but maybe you'll sleep a little better knowing that it turned out so well.Catch Season 4 of Animal Control on hulu and the previous three seasons on Netflix.Hey Sleepy Heads, is there anyone whose voice you'd like to drift off to, or do you have suggestions on things we could do to aid your slumber?Email us at: sleepwithcelebs@maximumfun.org.Follow the Show on:Instagram @sleepwcelebsBluesky @sleepwithcelebsTikTok @SleepWithCelebsJohn is on Bluesky @JohnMoeJohn's acclaimed, best-selling memoir, The Hilarious World of Depression, is now available in paperback._________________________________________________________________________Join | Maximum FunIf you like one or more shows on MaxFun, and you value independent artists being able to do their thing, you're the perfect person to become a MaxFun monthly member.

What if our cats aren't here to be “managed” — but to initiate us?In this episode of Mystic Dog Mama, I'm joined by Pam Roussell of Purrrfectly Holistic -  holistic pet health practitioner and devoted Cat Mom, for a conversation that invites us to slow down, listen more deeply, and rethink what health really means - for our animals and for ourselves.Pam shares her journey from the fitness industry into holistic pet health, shaped by her own healing and profoundly catalysed by the loss of her beloved cat, Snow Bear. His passing became a threshold moment — one that called Pam into a deeper relationship with intuition, energetics, and the wisdom of the body.Together, we explore the medicine of cats - why it's time to bring cats fully into holistic health conversations, and what they can teach us about curiosity, mysticism, and conscious care. We talk about the importance of getting to root causes rather than treating symptoms, the unique stressors many cats face (especially indoor cats), and how emotional, energetic, spiritual, and physical health are inseparable.This is also a conversation about agency - becoming your pet's health advocate, trusting your intuition, and how learning to advocate for your animals inevitably helps you step into deeper advocacy for yourself.We touch on the shadow side of the holistic health world, the danger of “doing everything right,” and why asking why matters more than ever. Pam also reflects on the spiritual significance of ailments, the different roles cats and dogs play in our spiritual development, and what the astrological shifts of 2026 and beyond are calling forward in how we think about health, healing, and support.Pam also shares gentle, practical insights for supporting your feline companions, along with her own daily practices with her cats - grounding this expansive conversation in everyday devotion.If your cat feels like a teacher, a mirror, or a guide in your life, this episode is an invitation to listen.Learn more about Pam's work: https://purrrfectlyholistic.comConnect with me!Website: ⁠https://mysticdogmama.com⁠Instagram: ⁠https://instagram.com⁠Come join my free Facebook group,  FETCH First Light.

Gary and Selena drift through everyday chaos, aging, intimacy, and irritation as a casual conversation about colors turns into reflections on turning forty, gift expectations, and the strange emotional weight attached to birthdays. They talk massages, tipping anxiety, overpriced upgrades, sore feet, and the disappointment of hot stone add-ons that miss the point. Domestic tension bubbles up through broken heirlooms, cats causing destruction, and disagreements about emotional reactions, overreacting, and what it means to feel heard during conflict.The conversation slides into awkward neighborhood encounters, paranoia about being overheard, public embarrassment, and how small moments spiral into resentment. Gary and Selena unpack bickering, criticism, Reddit reactions, and the thin line between honest conversation and uncomfortable listening. Travel stress enters the mix with airline seating changes, gate checking chaos, lost seats, and feeling powerless while following instructions. The episode winds through bugs, grasshoppers, bodily discomfort, television fatigue, relationship negotiations, and the quiet realization that everyday life feels louder, messier, and harder to smooth out than expected.

The Heat make no moves at the NBA trade deadline, even after weeks of rumors and speculation. Joe also urges coach Spo to play Kel'el Ware more minutes.

On this episode of Cattitude, host Michelle Fern welcomes holistic animal healer Lisa Tully, joining from Ireland to explore a fascinating idea: how cats may mirror the emotional, mental, and physical states of the humans they live with. Drawing on animal communication, Chinese medicine, and botanical healing, Lisa explains how imbalances in our own lives can quietly show up in our cats—sometimes emotionally, sometimes physically. The conversation dives into anxiety, stress, chronic illness, feline intuition, and the powerful ways cats may guide us toward greater self-awareness and healing. Whether you're deeply curious about holistic care or simply want a deeper connection with your cat, this episode offers a fresh perspective on the profound bond between cats and their people.EPISODE NOTES: Do Cats Mirror Their Humans?

You've probably been told to be grateful for what you have — but that advice isn't just feel-good wisdom. Research shows that intentionally expressing gratitude can actually change how your brain functions, influencing mood, focus, and emotional resilience. This episode begins with what gratitude really does inside your head — and why it's more powerful than it sounds. https://www.thecut.com/2016/01/how-expressing-gratitude-change-your-brain.html There's a basic human need we rarely talk about, yet it quietly shapes how people behave: the need to matter – to feel significant. When people feel seen and valued they tend to thrive. When they don't, the consequences can be serious — for individuals and for society. Jennifer Breheny Wallace joins me to explain why mattering is so essential and how it affects relationships, motivation, and well-being. She's an award-winning journalist and author of Mattering: The Secret to a Life of Deep Connection and Purpose (https://amzn.to/4r0ZX6W). Cats are the second most popular pets in the United States — yet many people don't understand the appeal at all. Cats can seem aloof, independent, and uninterested in pleasing us. So why have humans kept cats as companions for thousands of years? And what do cat lovers get from the relationship that others miss? Jerry Moore explains the long, surprising history of cats and why they continue to captivate us. He's a professor emeritus of anthropology at California State University, Dominguez Hills, and author of Cat Tales: A History (https://amzn.to/4sUBPEU). And finally, when you're sick with a cold or the flu, some old-fashioned home remedies actually have science on their side. They may not cure you — but they can make being sick a little less miserable. We wrap up with which remedies help and why they work.https://www.consumerreports.org/health/flu/how-to-beat-a-bad-cold-or-the-flu-a9270666041/ Learn more about your ad choices.

She learned early that not all silence is empty.From a woman in black and white sitting in a cemetery, to a nun who vanished mid-stride on a familiar street, her life has been marked by quiet encounters that never behaved like traditional hauntings. Cats appeared after death. Footsteps echoed where no one stood. Shadows moved, then retreated when noticed.What unsettled her most wasn't the activity — it was how selective it was.Some moments felt gentle. Familiar. Almost polite. Others carried weight, warning her without words to keep her distance. Over time, she realized the experiences didn't affect everyone the same way. Her sister recoiled in fear. She felt something closer to recognition.#TrueParanormal #QuietHauntings #SharedSightings #UnseenWorld #SensitivePerception #ParanormalExperiences #GhostStories #ThinPlaces #LivingWithTheUnexplained #Paranormal #HauntingsLove real ghost stories?
