What if your cat’s eyes could tell you more than you ever imagined?In this episode, we’re diving into a topic that’s completely different from anything we’ve explored before! We’re joined by animal iridologist Poppy Phillips, who specializes in “reading” the eyes of cats, dogs, and horses to uncover patterns, imbalances, and deeper insights into their health and wellbeing.Through the intricate colors and markings in the iris, Poppy shares how the eyes may reflect what is happening inside the body - often before symptoms become obvious. We explore how this practice works, what it can reveal, and how it fits into a more holistic, proactive approach to caring for our cats.Whether you are curious, skeptical, or somewhere in between, this conversation opens the door to a perspective most cat parents have never considered.If you have ever seen changes in your cat's eyes and wondered what it means... this episode is for you.

Death is something most of us fear, avoid, or struggle to understand - especially when it comes to losing an animal we love.In this deeply moving conversation with Isla Fishburn, we explore a perspective that has the power to transform the way we experience grief, loss, and transition. Dr. Fishburn shares her profound insights on death as sacred medicine and how our animal friends may be guiding us through some of the most meaningful moments of our lives... including when they leave this world.This conversation invites us to rethink everything we’ve been taught about death, and instead see it as part of a sacred journey - one that holds wisdom, healing, and even continued connection.If you have ever loved and lost an animal, or know that day will come, this episode is one every cat parent needs to hear.Learn more here: https://kachinacanine.com/

Dr. Randy is back for the final installment of his C.A.T.S. series, and this time we’re talking about the “S” - Stress Reduction.When we think about stress in cats, we often picture anxiety or behavioral issues. But stress runs much deeper than that. It can be chemical, environmental, sensory, nutritional, and even emotional. And the truth is, many of the health challenges our cats face have chronic stress hiding underneath them.In this episode, Dr. Randy breaks down the hidden stressors in our cats’ daily lives — from toxins in food, water, toys, and household products, to excessive noise, artificial light, and other overlooked environmental pressures. He also explains how stress impacts the immune system, gut health, hormones, and long-term vitality.Most importantly, we talk about what you can do. Because reducing stress doesn’t require perfection. It requires awareness, intention, and small changes that add up to a calmer, healthier life for your cat.If you’ve ever wondered how to truly support your cat’s whole-body health, this conversation is a must-listen.Click here for Dr. Randy: https://drrandypetvet.com/
