“You have to earn a cat's love and respect—and when you do, you have it forever.” – Dr. Nicole Liebman This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund and the Rescue Cleaners and Disinfectants. In this inspiring episode of the Community Cats Podcast, host Stacy LeBaron sits down with Dr. Nicole Liebman and Ron Coughlin, the passionate duo behind PAD Home Pet Services—a pioneering in-home pet care company dedicated to making veterinary support more accessible and compassionate, especially for cats. Dr. Liebman, a lifelong animal lover and veterinary oncologist, shares her deep respect for feline behavior and the importance of minimizing stress during care. Alongside Ron Coughlin, former CEO of Petco and current animal welfare advocate, the pair explore how PAD's in-home model meets critical needs in underserved communities—reducing stress for cats, supporting overburdened clinics, and empowering veterinary technicians. They unpack staggering industry realities—like how over half of all cats never see a veterinarian each year—and share how PAD fills the gap by providing services such as nail clipping, hospice support, post-surgical care, and more, all within the comfort of a pet's home. The episode highlights collaborations with rescue groups like Little Wanderers and emphasizes how this innovative model is already expanding beyond New York City. Listeners will also gain a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges of veterinary care deserts, technician shortages, and how PAD's community-focused, tech-driven model aims to be a game-changer—without sacrificing the personal, heart-centered care that animals deserve. Whether you're a cat lover, rescuer, or industry professional, this conversation will leave you inspired to reimagine what accessible, compassionate pet care can look like.

Undress a mannequin or talk to five strangers, because we are back for our seventh season of new/old Wie is de Mol episodes - and we're going all the way back to 2009's offering in Northern Ireland & Jordan! Over these nine weeks, three guys who are not in that demographic for you - Logan, Michael & Bindles - are recapping and looking back at all that happened on a titanic season that people have been asking us to do for years, continuing with the sixth episode and elimination of Sebastiaan. In this episode - Bindles guesses his intro, Michael has an admission, Pieter Jan misunderstands the word "unique", hours are saved, Bindles is confused by polaroids, Southern Hemisphere countries all sound the same, Sebastiaan has no idea what a woman sounds like, there's an explicit pun, Vivienne demands etiquette, Dennis gets a one-time nickname, we brainstorm a new twist, Sebastiaan gets a eulogy and Logan locks in his final pair of suspects for the season. Thank you for listening - we will see you next week for Episode 7! Please note: This season is intended on being spoiler-free, so please watch the episodes along with us. As with our coverage of Seasons 11, 14, 16 & 17, there are no spoilers due to Logan not having seen the season before. However, any season we have already covered (WIDM 10-11, 14, 16-25 and Renaissance; België 4-13) is fair game though. This episode is supported by our friends over at Zencastr.

Send us a textHypothermia during anesthesia represents one of veterinary medicine's most common yet preventable complications. While warming methods abound, which ones actually work? Dr. Rachel Kreisler and veterinary students Mahtab Khanezarrian and John Boules join us to challenge conventional wisdom and share evidence-based solutions.Their groundbreaking research reveals something surprising: those cotton toddler socks commonly used in clinics provide absolutely no benefit for maintaining feline body temperature during procedures. Instead, their carefully designed "kitten mittens" made from down blanket material demonstrated remarkable effectiveness, keeping cats up to 1.2°F warmer with passive insulation alone. When low-voltage heating elements were added, temperature preservation improved even further.The science behind this breakthrough centers on redistribution hypothermia - the averaging of warmer core blood with cooler peripheral blood during the critical first 45 minutes after induction. By focusing protection efforts on the extremities rather than just the trunk, veterinarians can make a meaningful difference in patient outcomes. The research team shares practical insights about preparation timing, environmental temperature management, and pre-warming considerations that can be implemented immediately in practice.Looking ahead, Dr. Kreisler discusses promising new materials that may offer superior insulation while addressing the practical challenges of sanitation and reusability in clinical settings. Whether you're working in a standard veterinary practice or a specialized setting like MRI where warming options are limited, this episode delivers immediately applicable knowledge to enhance patient care. Listen now to transform your approach to feline temperature management during anesthesia, and discover why evidence-based medicine matters for even the most routine procedures.JAVMA article: https://doi.org/10.2460/javma.25.02.0095INTERESTED IN SUBMITTING YOUR MANUSCRIPT TO JAVMA ® OR AJVR ® ?

“I've always just had a goal of helping as many animals as possible.” This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund and the Rescue Cleaners and Disinfectants. For passionate individuals and grassroots organizations working tirelessly in the world of animal welfare, financial logistics and nonprofit administration can feel like insurmountable hurdles. In this episode of the Community Cats Podcast, host Stacy LeBaron welcomes Robert Bills, founder of Chappy & Friends, a unique fiscal sponsor dedicated exclusively to animal welfare initiatives.

This episode dives deep into how Chappy & Friends empowers TNR groups, rescue efforts, and even equine programs by providing the legal and administrative infrastructure they need to accept tax-deductible donations, manage finances, and remain compliant with IRS regulations. Robert outlines the application and vetting process, explains how funds are disbursed, and shares examples of successful projects, including angel funds for veterinary hospitals and trap bank campaigns for cat rescues. Whether you're a one-person rescue or a small team with big dreams, this conversation offers a practical alternative to traditional nonprofit formation.

Dr. Ilona Rodan is back for the second episode and is a leading feline behavior specialist whose recent work on the 2024 AAFP Intercat Tension Guidelines (now Feline Veterinary Medicine Association) sheds light on often-overlooked stress between housemates. Her contributions equip both professionals and cat-parents with clear, science-backed strategies to foster peaceful, harmonious multi-cat homes.

“Outdoor cats don't have behavior problems—they just have behavior. It's when we bring them inside that we need to understand how to meet their needs.” This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund. In this enlightening and heartwarming conversation, feline behaviorist Stephen Quandt joins Stacy LeBaron to explore the intersection of empathy, education, and enrichment in the feline world. With over 20 years of experience, including high-stakes rescue missions like the Joplin tornado and a groundbreaking animal welfare initiative in Chernobyl, Stephen shares how understanding both human and feline behavior can create lasting impact. He delves into the most common behavioral challenges cat owners face—especially aggression and litter box issues—and why compassion is just as critical as technique when helping people and their pets. Stephen also opens up about his children's book Happy Comes Home, created to teach young readers empathy and practical cat care through storytelling. This episode is packed with valuable insights for rescue professionals, adopters, and anyone seeking to build a truly humane cat community.

Because we couldn't fit all of the great kitty info in to just one interview, Dr. Judy Morgan and Dr. Angie Krause discuss holistic cat care Part 2, emphasizing the unique needs of cats. They highlight the importance of stress management for cats, noting that urinary issues often stem from stress rather than medical conditions. Dr. Krause advises against restricting protein in early stages of kidney disease, as it can lead to muscle loss. They both recommend high-moisture diets and stress the significance of checking blood pressure and thyroid levels in cats with kidney issues. The conversation underscores the need for veterinarians to consider cats' specific behaviors and preferences in their care. Come on cat parents...tune in!

They're a family owned human grade pet food company that makes gently cooked whole food recipes for dogs and cats. I feel good recommending Raised Right, because most of their recipes have less than 2% carbs, and their recipes are so simple. Many have just 10 ingredients or less. They were able to formulate their adult dog recipes to be complete and balanced using only whole foods without any synthetic vitamins or minerals. Raised Right has also teamed up with both Dr Karen Becker and Dr Barbara Royal to create a new line of veterinary support recipes to help with specific health issues. They formulated low phosphorus recipes for kidney support and low fat recipes for pancreatic support. My own dogs and cats absolutely love Raised Right. Order yours today at RaisedRightPets.com/DrJudy. Once again, that's RaisedRightPets.com/DrJudy PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT #2There's a little known ingredient that's been quietly used in the animal health world for nearly half a century, and most pet owners have never heard of it. It's called spray dried plasma. As a veterinarian, I've used injectable plasma to support healing and calm inflammation, which is a common and overlooked cause of pet health issues. The truth is, our pets face daily inflammatory triggers like seasonal allergies, joint stress, stomach upset and even anxiety, affecting their comfort and long term health. That's why I'm so excited about WINPRO. They've taken plasma's powerful benefits, and made it available at home in soft chews, bites and powders for dogs and cats. Each plasma product provides targeted support for different areas like joint, skin, gut, dental and even mental health. Plus they have two great cat formulas, a dental bite and a plasma plus probiotic powder. Try WINPRO today at winpropet.com and use code DRJUDY for 20% off your first order.
