Michaela Watkins is our guest today and it's a gift to hear her share about her queen cat Izzy, her dopey cat Joe, cuddly Jeff the Dog, and Wuzzabear, the pup supermodel, all who have changed her life. This episode contains stories about lovers, liars, and narcissistic assholes, but it also delves into the pure love only animals can offer and what a good hang they can be. Cat allergies are discussed, you'll probably never think about the David Letterman theme song in the same way again, and listening to Michaela will definitely make you extra grateful for your own furry garbage pile to sink into. In honor of her humor and insight, her animals, and this community, every review of The Animal That Changed You that's left in the month of December will become $10 donated to Wags & Walks!

You'll want to follow Michaela Watkins for 1000 reasons, but her videos of Jeff the Dog and Wuzzabear are among the top.

All You Have To Do Is Love Them with Matt McConkey and Michael Grassi

Matt McConkey and Michael Grassi are the pet adoption dream couple. In this episode, you’ll hear one of the best gotcha stories about a dignified senior dog who became the cornerstone for a love story. A beautiful soul whose head smelled like oatmeal cookies inspired communication between two people and united them as family, but she also brought them out of their heads and made them feel cool. From being thirsty for dog kisses to reframing how we think about rescuing senior pets, from seeing your future in a dog’s eyes to the hard reality of saying goodbye, these guests are like a comfy couch you just want to sink right into and listen.

Follow Matt McConkey for more laughs, more insight, more goodness.

Take That Compassion and Expand It with CARE

This is where it's at. James and Jennifer Evans are here to talk to us about elevating BIPOC voices in animal welfare and bringing in people from all walks of life. By challenging assumptions and suspending judgments, we can better stay true to honest narratives instead of getting caught up in the stories we tell ourselves about other people. Because to help animals, we need to participate in communities. Because to help animals, we need to be inclusive and that means reckoning with our privilege. Because to help animals, we need different answers, we need to get rid of barriers to adoption, we need to incentivize pet fostering - and it starts by making space for everybody. CARE is doing some big work led by these ambitious dreamers and hearing them unpack the number of animals in shelters as a social and racial gap in this country is a discussion I am most grateful for. Listen to this episode, spend more time outside, and join the CARE movement.
