Episode Summary
Are you ready to introduce a new pet companion to the family?
In this episode, drawing from my personal experiences, I explore the world of pet ownership. Listen along as I unpack the considerations of choosing between a rescue pet or, perhaps a kitten or puppy. I’ll delve into the responsibilities of each option and give you food for thought about what’s going to suit your unique situation.
Listen to both my personal experiences and pet behaviour and training expert thoughts!

I’ll share experiences, valuable expert tips, and candid conversations that inspire, empathise with and motivate you to lead the best life possible with your pet.
Creating a harmonious home with cats and dogs is often considered a challenge, but seasoned cat and dog behaviourist Lisa is familiar with the process.
In this episode, Lisa shares her expert guidance and essential strategies for introducing these furry friends while reducing anxiety and stress for both pets.
Together, Lisa and I walk you through the crucial steps of pre-introduction scent swapping to the importance of observing initial interactions and practical solutions for everyday challenges, such as dogs chasing cats and the environmental stressors that affect feline behaviour.
Whether you’re a new pet owner or looking to improve your multi-pet household, Lisa’s insights offer actionable support to create a safe and loving environment for all.
