  • Thank you for such a great podcast for cats!!

    Hello, I have been a listener for many years! Fantastic episodes with Dr Leslie Lyons pertaining to cancers in cats!! So much info about prevalences, cancer types, studies, and genetics! Just what my brain loves! Thank you! P.S. Susan, I am a huge believer in the Oxford Comma. I don’t understand why anyone wouldn’t want to use it!

  • Lively dialogue and always informative

    Love listening to the podcast when running. Highly recommend! The podcasts have made me a better veterinarian! Lately- technician and dermatology podcasts, the audio for Dr Kirpensteijn has been softer than Dr Little and the guest. I hope this can be remedied. Thanks for your gift of knowledge to the veterinary and cat loving community!
