Fast forward to 2020, and after five years together (and 2+ months in self-isolation), Perry decided to take the relationship to the next level by proposing to Olivia one morning on the front porch, where she likes sun. And to his surprise, Olivia said, “Meow!” which Perry took as a “Yes!” Tune in as Michelle Fern asks Scott all the questions you want to know!!EPISODE NOTES: LA Man to Marry His Cat May 23 to Support Best Friends Animal Society NKLA Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cattitude-the-1-cat-podcast--6666768/support.

Cattitude - Episode 109 Coronavirus and Your Cat

Are your cats at risk? Can they get the Coronavirus or spread it? Viruses are usually unique to each species and it is unusual for a virus to jump between species. It's very unlikely that household pets like dogs or cats will transmit this Coronavirus to people and there is no evidence at this point that dogs or cats will become ill from this disease,” said Dr. Dana Varble, NAVC Chief Veterinary Officer. “There is no cause for alarm, but it is smart to skip the face kisses for now and wash your hands and face regularly after being with pets. Always include your pets in your emergency preparedness plans. Michelle Fern talks to Dr. Varble about how this virus can or cannot affect your cat and what you can do to keep your kitties safe.EPISODE NOTES: Coronavirus and Your Cat!
