    2025/06/09
    Deb Wolfe asks, “would you want to fly on a plane 3x in 36 hours?” Poor Maine Coon Kitty, Mittens got forgotten in baggage and had to travel back and forth 3x from New Zealand to Australia. The same week, another cat escaped in the passenger section and wandered the aisles making friends on a flight from Vancouver to Toronto. Deb suggests you take carabiners and zip ties to secure any escape issues that might come up by surprise. Do you have cats and your toothbrush sitting in a cup by the sink? Deb explains why that is a no-no! A simple office clip (shown on the show page) can solve that problem. Deborah teaches you how to get your pets to pose for campy photos with props and costumes and how to teach cats and dogs the ‘find’ command which is ideal for older dogs and cats. Deb Wolfe promises to cover more advanced find skills next Animal Party show and get your dogs and cats finding people and teach your dogs to find the car.

    2025/06/02
    Deb Wolfe shares pet news about the Urgent FDA warning a popular dog arthritis drug is dangerous, heat seeking drones put to good use and a 2.7 lb hero saves many lives. A listener asks for more cat jokes please and Deborah calls on the cat owners who listen to this show to put their cat loving fingers to work and click on https://tinyurl.com/mr2upsne, which is debwolfe.petexpert on YouTube and show the ‘how to’ cat training videos some love! There are far more cat pets than dog pets and so many of you have both cats and dogs so why do the ‘how to’ dog training videos like ‘how to pick a puppy’ get 158k views while stellar cat videos like ‘how to’ teach your cat (any cat, every cat) to shake paw get only a handful? Deborah asks ‘is it because you have given up on your cats learning or wanting to please you?’ Maybe your cats have given up on you and your one human trick of feeding them. Please subscribe to the channel and click on the cat videos and leave a comment about whatever you would like to see me to teach a cat and I’ll make that happen! Ciao meow.
