•
In the final episode of this season, Adam and Nicky enlist some extra help from TV vet, Dr Bolu Eso. Dr Bolu, seen regularly on our screens on Love Your Weekend and Pooch Perfect, helps the team dig deep into lots of knotty listener questions about their cat companions.
Subjects under discussion include keeping your cat’s teeth clean, the things vets wish owners knew, and grief from the loss of your pet. Also, as Adam reflects on how the podcast has helped him become more ‘cat savvy’, we hear why Dr Bolu thinks there is a reason why cats are worshipped.
