    As someone who loves animals but isn’t in the industry I think it’s a great entree into the sometimes wonky world of the professional animal welfare movement.

    I’m a fan boy and I’ve now listened to... more

  • Great podcast for animal lovers and rescuers

    Love this podcast! I found it when searching for Kitten Lady (Hannah Shaw). I'm involved in kitten rescue as a foster parent and I find this podcast so fascinating and informative.
