Cattitude - Cat podcast about cats as pets on Pet Life Radio (PetLifeRadio.com)
In Part 2 of Cattitude's special two-part series on the Cats of New York City, host Michelle Fern welcomes Peggy Gavan and Daniel Rimada, co-founders of Cats About Town Tours—the city's first walking tours dedicated to feline history, lore, and legendary local kitties. Discover how their tours weave “mini history lessons” with unforgettable cat stories across Brooklyn Heights, the Lower East Side, and the Financial District—featuring iconic felines like Jerry Fox (the blind cat who helped save Brooklyn Borough Hall), Nicodemus (a star of the first national cat show at Madison Square Garden), and Mutilator (the famous newspaper cat of The New York Sun). Then the conversation turns to the beloved—and sometimes controversial—bodega cats: what they are, why they matter, the myths people get wrong, and how a community-driven movement may help improve standards of care (and even influence legislation). If you love cats, city history, or both, this episode is a purr-fect NYC adventure—no subway fare required.EPISODE NOTES: Cats About Town: NYC's Secret Feline HistoryBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cattitude-the-1-cat-podcast--6666768/support.

In Episode 357 of The Canine Paradigm, we unpack a simple truth. When a dog does not know what earns success, confusion grows, and confusion creates conflict. We look at how to define success clearly, how to show the dog what “good” looks like, and how to design training futures so today's choices support tomorrow's behaviour. Then we discuss clean criteria, plain language markers, and reinforcement that truly matches the behaviour you want. We talk about splitting steps, rehearsing short wins, and avoiding mixed messages that push the dog into conflict. Then we map training futures. If you plan to trial, travel, live in a busy family, or manage reactivity, what must the dog learn now so the future is easier, not harder? You will leave with a tidy framework. Set the goal, write the criteria, pick the markers, choose the reinforcers, and test the picture in new places. When success is obvious and repeatable, conflict drops and progress speeds up.

Become a partner or contact us On this episode of Off the Record with the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast, we're highlighting The Chopper Foundation and the work they're doing to help families access lifesaving veterinary care when money is tight, so people do not have to surrender a pet or make an impossible decision. We're joined by Sharon, Moreen, and Dr. Lee for a conversation about how The Chopper Foundation started, what the need looks like in real life, and how community partnerships make it possible to keep pets healthy and at home. Sharon shares what she saw again and again when dogs were relinquished: lack of funds for care, or behavioral issues, often after a dog had already been rehomed. She talks about how the unexpected loss of Chopper became the turning point, and how she decided to turn that loss into action that helps other families keep their pets. The episode also digs into what support can look like beyond emergency vet bills, including food distribution. The foundation has worked with community partners to provide large food donations and run what they call a “chow line,” with past stops in Reading, Allentown, and Bethlehem, and a goal of expanding to Easton. The point is simple: help families who are stretched thin so they do not have to choose between feeding themselves and feeding their pets. Looking ahead to 2026, The Chopper Foundation shares plans for a low-cost vaccination clinic and ways local sponsors can help make basic care more accessible, including a “sponsor one shot” approach.

Your Natural Dog with Angela Ardolino - Formerly It's A Dog's Life
In this episode of Your Natural Dog, Angela Ardolino is joined by Dr. Judy Jasek, a holistic veterinarian with decades of clinical experience, for a candid conversation about why our pets are sicker than ever. Together, they unpack how modern pet care, from highly processed supplements and foods to so-called “inactive” ingredients like fillers, binders, gums, starches, and spray-dried additives, can quietly disrupt detox pathways, burden the liver and kidneys, and undermine gut health, especially in older pets. Angela and Dr. Jasek also explore how the pet industry has changed over time, why marketing buzzwords can be misleading, and what pet parents can do instead to support the body's natural ability to restore balance and resilience.Episode Recap:Angela introduces Dr. Judy Jasek, who explains why she identifies as holistic rather than “integrative,” and they discuss how the terms ‘holistic' and ‘natural' can be overused, both in pet care and supplements. (00:00)Why supplements can be a trap for well-meaning pet parents who want “natural” alternatives, and how health is the body's natural state, we just need to support the body, not “create health” with products. (04:32)Angela and Dr. Judy call out “natural” supplement labels that hide harmful inactive ingredients, including common fillers like microcrystalline cellulose (wood pulp), and how many additives exist primarily to make manufacturing cheaper or easier (binders, bulking agents, flow agents). (07:02)They break down how big companies use buzzwords and emotional marketing to sell inferior pet foods and pet supplements, and why understanding where ingredients truly come from matters more than the label claims. (10:45)They talk about the common “senior dog spiral,” where joint pain leads to drugs and stacking interventions that overload detox systems. (16:00)The rise of cancer in younger pets and how much the landscape has changed across Dr. Judy's career. They also talk about immune-suppressing allergy drugs and how turning off symptoms can create bigger downstream problems. (23:03)Angela talks about the rise of countless pet joint supplements, and the most popular pet joint supplements, like Cosequin, the problems with these isolates, and how hard it can be to even find full ingredient lists for many of these popular supplements. (28:05)The conversation highlights how corporate-owned veterinary systems often treat lab numbers and symptoms rather than treating the whole animal, leading to more drugs, more tests, and fewer answers for pet parents. (32:13)They dive into why inactive ingredients matter just as much as active ones, exposing how common fillers, sugars, and gums can fuel inflammation and gut imbalance in pets. (35:50)Angela and Dr. Judy highlight how foods like mushrooms, ferments, and small amounts of veggie fiber can support gut health by working with a pet's natural instincts.

Denise shares how her love for dogs and her faith led her to create a grooming experience centered on comfort, trust, and care—and how that mission expanded into a community resource helping keep pets out of shelters. We explore the inspiration behind the Pet Pantry, how it operates as a 24/7 blessing box, and the role fundraisers, sponsors, and volunteers play in sustaining the mission.

Sarah has a new guilty pleasure called Members Only, but she says it's more like Real Housewives of Mar-a-Lago. We hear why she is fascinated by these ladies (and their clothing). We debate the virtues of changing your last name when you get married, and how certificates and diplomas should be amendable if you change your name. We learn the benefits of pet ownership according to science, and whether it is better or worse for your happiness than having children. Susie wants you all to know it is certainly better than having a teenager. Sarah explains, at long last, what the appendix even does and why it's more important than most people realize. And Susie tells the story of her friend who had to have her appendix removed because she tried to beat Cher in a feat of strength. This is a true and hilarious story. And we find out about a device that measures your child's vitals, and can alert parents of an impending temper tantrum, and we hear whether it's effective in preventing or reducing their severity.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDYGet 60% off your first order, plus free shipping, when you head to https://www.smalls.com/braincandyThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

FIDO: Nancy Martin and the Power of Keeping Pets in Homes Host Laura Reeves is joined by longtime friend and icon of the dog world, Nancy Martin—legendary breeder, professional handler and now visionary founder of FIDO: Friends Involved Dog Outreach. This episode is a powerful reminder of what our community can accomplish when passion meets purpose. After decades of success in the show ring, Nancy's retirement from handling didn't slow her down—it redirected her energy. What began as a simple act of compassion through a veterinary clinic grew into a groundbreaking mission: addressing pet food insecurity as a way to keep dogs out of shelters and in the homes that love them. From that idea, FIDO was born, along with the National Pet Assistance Network and No Pet Hungry America. Nancy shares how food insecurity is a household issue that directly impacts pets, why “wraparound services” matter more than blame, and how keeping families fed can prevent surrender before crisis hits. The results are staggering: over 6,000 households supported and more than 1.2 million meals provided in a single year. This conversation also dives into Nancy's national recognition—including the Oregon Humane Society's Diamond Collar Award and a Community Hero Award from the Oregon Ducks—and why those honors represent a shift in how purebred dog people can be seen as part of the solution. From mentoring future veterinarians to challenging long-held narratives about breeders and rescue, Nancy Martin is redefining advocacy in dogs. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who cares about the future of purebred dogs, community responsibility and meaningful, practical change.

Are you caring for aging parents with pets, or aging with a pet yourself, and hoping it'll all “work out” when something changes?

When Daniel Roselle stepped into the role of Executive Director at the Humane Society of Ventura County, he inherited more than a job title. He took on stewardship of a 93-year-old institution at a moment when animal welfare is rapidly evolving — shifting away from a shelter-only mindset toward community-based solutions that prioritize prevention, education, and long-term care.In this wide-ranging conversation, Roselle lays out his vision for the future of HSVC, including programs designed to remove barriers to adoption, expand training and outreach, and — most critically — keep pets in homes whenever possible. From behavioral support and access to veterinary care to humane education and community partnerships, his approach emphasizes systems that support both animals and the people who love them.Roselle's perspective is shaped by an unconventional life path. Having lived in multiple countries and not setting foot in the United States until age 20, he brings a global lens to questions of animal welfare — examining how different cultures relate to animals, how belief systems influence behavior, and why empathy must be paired with realism. That perspective leads the conversation into unexpected but thoughtful territory, including discussions of religious cults, invasive species, and the ethical complexities of conservation.We also talk about one of the most overlooked — and rewarding — acts of compassion: adopting senior and geriatric dogs, whose capacity for connection often deepens with age. Throughout, Roselle makes the case that animal welfare isn't just about rescue; it's about belonging, stability, and community responsibility.We did not talk about Hawaii's nene geese, English archers at Agincourt, or the New York Times cooking app.This episode is a thoughtful look at where animal welfare has been — and where it needs to go next.

We argue about something that really doesn't matter in any way and spend much too much time doing it. The good scale debate. Dylan takes a stance on allowing pets in stores. He thinks people should not be allowed to bring their fur babies into every establishment. Robbie makes the argument that kids can be just as much of a nuisance as pets. Pepper has a very wholesome reaction to getting a surprise present from Dylan and his stepson. If you know Pepper, you'd know he has a massive love of elastics. Pepper makes a shocking observation about Dylan's current relationship. Now it seems like Dylan's world is shook!

VetFolio - Veterinary Practice Management and Continuing Education Podcasts
Veterinarians, veterinary technicians/nurses and pet owners all have a crucial role to play when it comes to pets and pain management, including pain assessment, diagnosis, patient monitoring and care. Tune in to the episode of this VetFolio Voice podcast as Dr. Cassi chats with Mary Ellen Goldberg about the importance of taking a collaborative approach, communication and the role of tools—such as videos—in accurately assessing a patient. Learn about objective measures, such as clinical metrology instruments, and the importance of tailoring treatment plans to patients. They also briefly cover medications and modalities, such as NSAIDs, Adequan, acupuncture, TENs units, Assisi loops, cold laser, physical therapy, and more.
In this Bell Work Talk, Nancy Blaney and Claire Coughlin of the Animal Welfare Institute will discuss the relationship between child abuse and animal abuse, which frequently occur in the same homes. Given the special role that pets play in providing both emotional and social support to children, witnessing or being forced to participate in animal abuse is especially traumatic. Asking questions about pets and pet abuse can provide practitioners with unique insights into violent household dynamics and inform their intervention efforts. Claire Coughlin: Claire Coughlin (she/her) has a master's degree in human development and family studies and extensive experience in both social services and animal advocacy. For over a decade, she specialized in evidence-based education and support services for children and families impacted by abuse and neglect. She now serves as the director of the Companion Animals Program for the Animal Welfare Institute (AWI) and oversees AWI's work on the link between animal maltreatment and human violence, including the Safe Havens for Pets program which supports domestic violence survivors with pets. Nancy Blaney has advocated on behalf of animals for more than 40 years and is currently Director of Government Affairs at the Animal Welfare Institute.

Happy New Year and welcome back to The Canine Paradigm. We start 2026 with a clear message. Too many rules and laws are being introduced at speed, without fair consultation, and often without evidence that they will achieve what is claimed. In Episode 356, I don't approve so I want it banned is the belief we are pushing back against. We talk about how sudden bans and policy shifts affect dogs, owners, trainers and the wider community. We look at the real cost of rushed regulation, the way lobby groups and loud voices can drown out good data, and why professional, respectful pushback matters. Most of all, we call on our community to act like adults. Ask for the evidence. Read the draft. Submit feedback. Write to your MP or councillor. Support peak bodies and experts who show their work. Name poor process without insulting people. Hold a line without losing your head. If you care about workable standards, fair consultation and policies that actually help dogs and families, this is your episode. Clarity beats outrage. Process beats posturing. Let's lift the level.
