  • Listening to Your Pet: Animal Communication’s Role in a Pet Care Team
    Apr 27 2026

    In this episode of Pet Health Junkies, we’re flipping the usual script on pet care and asking a simple question: what happens when you actually listen to your animal?

    Jessica, Pam & Janet are joined by animal communicator Linda Roberts to explore how animal communication can become a meaningful part of a pet’s care team, right alongside your vet, nutritionist, trainer, and other practitioners. You’ll hear how tuning into your pet’s perspective can reveal hidden stressors, clarify confusing behavior or health issues, and help you make more aligned decisions about treatments, supplements, and lifestyle changes.

    We also talk about what animal communication is (and isn’t), how Linda works with both guardians and professionals, and how to bring this modality into your pet’s life without abandoning common sense or conventional care. If you’ve ever wondered whether your pet is trying to tell you something—or how to integrate “woo” with real‑world wellness—this conversation is for you.

    Mar 29 2026

    Supporting Stressed and Sensitive Cats with Color Therapy (with Julie‑Anne from Naturally Cats) invites you to look at your cat’s world through a whole new lens—literally, through color. In this episode, we're joined by feline behaviorist and energy practitioner Julie‑Anne from Naturally Cats to unpack how different colors can influence your cat’s emotions, stress levels, and sense of safety. We talk about why so many “quirky” behaviors are actually signs of overwhelm, how color therapy fits alongside other holistic tools, and simple ways to start using color in your home without buying a bunch of new stuff. You’ll hear real‑life examples of cats who’ve relaxed, opened up, or finally settled tension in multi‑cat homes once their environment was energetically adjusted. By the end, you’ll have practical, gentle strategies to support your stressed or sensitive cat—using color as one more easy, powerful way to help them feel balanced and understood.

  • 19. Common Sense Pet Parenting Tips
    Jun 11 2025

    Join Jessica, Pam & Janet as we talk about some of the things that we come across ALL THE TIME and what we'd like everyone to know!

    It's true that common sense isn't all that common, and while we are teasing to some degree, and we know that we have intentionally educated ourselves in an area that most haven't, some things would be pretty obvious if we just stopped and thought logically about it.

    That's what this episode is about. Stopping, removing biases, and thinking logically.

    We hope you enjoy our rant!
