Cat Talk Radio

by Molly DeVoss and Dewey Vaughn

Cat Talk Radio is your go-to podcast for understanding cat behavior—why cats do what they do, what drives the occasional "misbehavior," and how you can help them (and yourself!) live happier lives. We'll guide you through how to modify unwanted behaviors by creating an enriching environment that allows your cat to express natural instincts in ways that work for both of you. Along the way, you'll discover fascinating feline facts, learn how to have more fun with your cat, and find inspiration to try new things—all of which will deepen your bond and enhance your relationship. We also shine a light on the challenges faced by cats across the country and share their stories to inspire compassion and change.

I always learn something new and interesting about my cat Jolene. It’s such a great quick listen to help you bond with your baby! Thank you so much Molly for all your insight and knowledge!

I’ve tried listening to several podcasts looking for information that’s useful about cats. Although some were entertaining, this is hands down the best, most useful podcast about cats and cat behavior I’ve found. I also find it entertaining but it’s really the valuable information that keeps me coming back.

SuznHope · Feb 2022

Molly's obsession with cat nutrition mirrors my own. I've done ten years of research and she still tells me things I didn't know. How do we educate our vets so they stop doing more harm than good with Rx diets? Its not all serious though. Molly and Dewey are adorable and hilarious together. Dewey does zone out sometimes. I notice it too, Molly 😂 Spread the word! This is a MUST listen to podcast for anyone with a cat in their lives.

Absolutely love your podcast. Just started listening, and I can’t wait to listen to all of them. Everyone of them is relevant and informative. I’ve learned so much in the few I’ve listened to already. I’m already a cat mom and am going to start fostering. So I have been checking out those episodes first. Don’t ever stop.....our kitties and their mommies and daddies need your wise words. 🐱❤️🐱
