Pandemic Puppies, Foster Kittens & A Small Animal Pet Debate: Episode 286

The animals in our lives have certainly had an interesting year, what with all the working and learning from home. Many families whose work/life situations previously caused them to hold off on pet-ownership took the plunge and got a pandemic puppy. And COVID or no COVID, our kids never stop asking to add to our respective menageries. Join Meagan and Sarah for a fun look at life with family pets, especially through the lens of 2020. We’ll talk about pandemic puppies, the Powers family’s adventure in fostering a litter of kittens, and the merits and drawbacks of various small animal pets. Enjoy!

(Listen all the way through for a very special cameo from the littlest of our combined eight kids, animal lover and guinea pig expert, Violet!)
