Ever wondered what it’s really like to dedicate your life to saving animals?
In this special episode, I’m the guest on The Story of My Pet podcast, hosted by Julie Marty-Pearson. I share my journey from a childhood encounter with a feral cat named Snippy to founding Starlight Outreach and Rescue and committing my life to animal rescue.
This conversation offers a raw, honest look at the emotional weight, daily chaos, and deep joy that come with being an animal rescuer.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:
Whether you’re in the rescue world or just curious about what goes on behind the scenes, this episode will give you an inside look at the sacrifices, passion, and grit it takes to be a rescuer.
P.S. You may hear us refer to the show as Starlight Pet Talk during this episode. That was our original name before we decided to embrace the fur, mess, and mayhem. Same content, new name that fits.
