Description

Why is there a negative connotation around being a crazy cat person? Why don't more people get involved in Trap-Neuter-Release within their local communities?  How can we look at taking care of homeless animals as an addition in our lives? How can we bear uncomfortable, difficult conversations in order to save more lives?These are some of the many questions we explore today with Anna Dickerson-Homan, a cat rescuer and the force behind The Kitten Factory, with all those adorable pictures on Instagram! From feeding colonies to fostering kitties, she tells us how she tackles many of the feline issues (and myths) she faces so she can inspire more people to help orphaned kittens along with her. Because simply put: cats need our help! And community cats desperately need our help.In today's meow-heavy episode, Anna and I chat about what sparked her passion for rescue, the hard work that goes into TNR, and why taking action, no matter how small, is what will truly help move the needle forward when it comes to saving animals. Just. Do. Something. It takes all of us. It affects all of us. We need you. They need you. And there are so many gifts to joining an animal-loving group. Join The Animal That Changed You community on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook -- we're waiting to welcome you!

The Animal That Changed You is a touching and funny podcast that explores how extraordinary people have been changed by extraordinary animals. In this weekly show, Katya (writer, animal advocate, and Life Coach for Dog People) and Jenny (founder and president of Better Together Dog Rescue) discuss taking action to help animals. This is a community for anyone who seeks to connect through a shared love of animals, who need not be hardcore, and who prefers to laugh while they cry. Listen to brilliant guests tell stories about the soul-level relationships they've had with animals, get in touch and share your journey, hear solo episodes with Jenny and Katya just talking as friends. This co-hosting duo is not afraid to share the ups and downs of fighting for animals or to be vulnerable and real. Lean into loving animals just a little bit more because it's good for them and the world. Because it's good for you.
