 The Animal Party starts with a bit of water-bowl talk covering the most explosive animal related news highlights and issues. Deborah gives her opinion along with the facts and stats you want to know to make up your own mind. Do you believe in allowing cats outdoors? What about removing their claws? Do pets make kids’ allergies worse? Have you ever thought about pit bulls? Get the facts and you’ll understand exactly why pit bulls have such a bad reputation and decide for yourself if banning breeds will solve the problem of dangerous dogs in your neighborhood. Topics covered include dog and cat news but go wherever animals and the people who love them go; Bears, fish, farm animals, pets of all sorts, exotics and environmental conservation issues are part of the show when they are part of the news. Every week Deborah invites an animal friend to join the party and that means you get to hear the best experts from the animal world chatting and sharing.

Do you want to know how cats & dogs think and why they do what they do? Deborah will fill you in as she entertains you with animal jokes, haikus, riddles and trivia plus interviews with experts from all over the Animal World.

Before the show ends Deborah will share her Animal Inbox and answer email pet behavior questions you send. Does your dog ignore you when you call? Does your cat ignore the litter box?

Each show Deborah will give you her picks for favorite animal websites and then end the show with some homework your pets will love. Test your own cat or dog to see if he’s dumb or smart; learn how to say ‘hello’ to every dog and cat you meet, cook for your pets with ingredients you already have or plant a garden that will repel or attract cats or learn some party tricks to teach your dog or even your cat!

  • Animal Party Episode 235 Ears, Tails & Ethics: The End of Cosmetic Cuts

    Animal Party Episode 235 Ears, Tails & Ethics: The End of Cosmetic Cuts
    Oct 15 2025
    On this episode of Animal Party, Deb Wolfe serves up equal parts laughs, heart, and hard truths. We kick off with the Wyoming “wolf suit” fiasco—a cautionary (and hilarious) PSA about why wildlife can’t be duped by costumes or club tricks. Then Deb unpacks the growing wave of legislation in Quebec, the U.S., and Europe restricting cosmetic pet surgeries (debarking, declawing, ear cropping, tail docking) and explains humane, effective alternatives. You’ll hear a feel-good rescue from Canada’s Bay of Fundy, where volunteers freed stranded white-sided dolphins from knee-deep mud, and a tender update on Teddy, Deb’s senior poodle, as she weighs pain control, mobility, and quality of life. We close with a heartfelt invitation to adopt or foster—because while no pet is replaceable, there’s always another soul ready to love you back.
