  • Animal Party Episode 201 Cats’ Home Range, Dumb Puppy Adopters. Stupid Dog Owners with Bad Equipment, Eagle Battles
    2024/12/10
    How far do Cats wander and travel & how big is their home turf? What not to do when you adopt an older puppy or dog? Deborah describes a Golden Doodle adoption that went very wrong involving traffic coyotes and trauma because the people would not follow instructions, and keep the dog, who was new to them, on leash and close till she truly trusted and knew them. It takes a few weeks; not a few hours! Stupid owner award should go to the family with the just weaned pup being passed roughly by wild kids at the crowded music festival along with their young fetch playing dog who was made to play across blankets and picnic spreads while on a FLEXI LEASH, & PRONG COLLAR. Both devices should be banned and never used together. Big thanks to OWL for saving 2 bald eagles locked in a talon battle. If you want to see American Bald Eagles come to Vancouver, BC, Canada in the fall and help us count them!

  • Animal Party Episode 200 Cats Can’t Do Math, But They Sure Can Multiply!
    2024/11/27
    Deb Wolfe interviews Deborah Cribbs, Founder & Leader of the Give Them Ten movement for CATS. Cribbs says ‘cats can’t do math, but they do multiply’ and explains how promoting cat spay/neuter in Cincinnati brought the shelter cats no kill rate from 37%- 96%. How many cats do you think wil result if a mating pair are together for 5 years? Think about it… how many offspring will a Romeo and a Juliet cat make if they keep mating naturally for 5 years and their offspring mate too? See if you can guess how many and listen to the show to see if you guessed right.

    The cats may not do Math but this organization sure does and the way they’ve set up donated money from a cat loving person who passed away is brilliant; they have structured their ads and promotions to allow other cat shelters anywhere in the world to tap into their model and use their platform with their mascot ‘Scooter’ the neutered cat to help the cats where they live. So if you want to make a difference for stray cats, cats in shelters and nice cats being euthanized you can go to www.givethemten.org and figure out what will work best for you. You don’t need money to make a huge difference. Deborah Wolfe adds cat facts like how cats’ sense of taste is different from ours and how many lost cats get found compared to the found lost dogs stats.
