KittyCatGO Adventure Podcast: Exploring Cat Travel, Training, & Enrichment Together

Cats are often labeled as stubborn, aloof, difficult, or untrainable — but what if we’ve been looking at cat behavior all wrong?
In this episode, I sit down with Misty from Fellow Creatures to talk about trust, communication, enrichment, and what it really means to work with our cats instead of trying to control them.
We explore how training can strengthen the bond between cats and humans, why choice and agency matter so much, and how understanding behavior through a different lens can completely transform our relationships with our cats.

If you share your home with more than one cat, you've probably wondered at some point: Can I just take them all out together?
It sounds efficient in theory—one outing, multiple cats, everyone gets their adventure time. But in practice, taking more than one cat outside at a time can be a lot more complicated than many people realize.
In this episode, I share my thoughts on adventuring with multiple cats, including:
The biggest safety concerns to consider
Why cats are very different from dogs when it comes to group outings
What can happen when unexpected situations arise
Whether taking turns is actually the better option
Why having one human per cat is ideal
How strollers and backpacks can help if you're flying solo

If you've been wondering how to manage outdoor adventures with a multi-cat household, this episode will help you think through the pros, cons, and practical realities before you head out the door.

What if the way we’ve been feeding our cats… isn’t actually what they need?
In this episode, I sit down with Jess from Caticles, a clinical pet nutritionist, to talk all about raw feeding — a topic that can feel overwhelming, controversial, and confusing.
We break down the myths, the risks, and the real benefits, and talk about how nutrition plays a much bigger role in your cat’s life than most people realize.
From practical tips to big-picture insights, this episode is all about helping you better understand what’s in your cat’s bowl — and how it impacts their health and behavior.

Have you ever opened the front door only to have your cat make a run for it?
Door dashing is one of the most common concerns among cat parents, especially those interested in harness and leash training. In fact, many people avoid taking their cats outside altogether because they're afraid it will encourage escape attempts.
In this episode, I share my thoughts on door dashing, why I don't follow the common advice to always carry cats through doorways, and what I believe actually causes this behavior.
You'll learn:
Why cats become fixated on doors
Whether harness and leash training can create door dashers
How mat training can help prevent escape attempts
Why routines and predictability matter
The role enrichment plays in reducing unwanted behaviors
And how my youngest cat, Nimbus, recently taught me an important lesson about behavior and communication

If you're struggling with a cat who bolts for the door—or you're worried about creating a door dasher by taking your cat outside—this episode will give you a different perspective and practical strategies you can start using right away.

What would happen to your cat if something unexpected happened to you?
It’s not something most of us like to think about — but without a plan in place, your cat’s future could be left uncertain.
In this episode, I’m joined by Sean Valle, lawyer and founder of Cotl, to talk about how pet parents can legally plan for their cats’ care. We discuss the difference between mentioning your cat in a will, setting up a pet trust, and using a structured pet care plan — and what can go wrong when people assume “someone will just take them.”
We also cover:
Common misconceptions about what will happen to your pet
Why verbal promises aren’t enough
How specific you can get about your cat’s diet, routine, and lifestyle
When you should start planning
Whether this type of planning is expensive
The first step to take if you haven’t done anything yet

If your cat is family, this conversation is an important one.
