#137 The Mind of a Cat | Dr. Kristyn Vitale

It will come as no surprise to my regular listeners that I love exploring the bond between pets and people. My life has been vastly improved by pets and I’ve seen the same effect of pets on countless people. Recently, I watched a deeply engrossing Netflix original documentary called The Mind of a Cat. When I watched it (and went nuts for it like a teenager at a rock concert) I knew I needed to contact one of my favorite stars of the movie, Dr. Kristyn Vitale. Kristyn is a professor at Unity College in Animal Health and Behavior. She is a frequent contributor to major media outlets like National Geographic and the New York Times, and she’s a prolific researcher. And the findings of her research suggest that cat behavior is far more complex than we may have ever imagined. If you have you ever wondered what is going on in the mind of your cat, or how to best connect with your feline friend, these and many other compelling questions will be answered. So, listen in as Kristyn and I discuss the mind of a cat.
