The Two Crazy Cat Ladies

The Two Crazy Cat Ladies

Author: MindBodySpirit.fm June 8, 2026 Duration: 1:00:49
Jae and Adrienne of Two Crazy Cat Ladies — the dynamic duo behind the Feline Essential supplement line — are back on the podcast, and they brought a lot of good stuff with them. In this conversation, Julie, Karen, and Meredith dive deep with these passionate feline advocates on why cats are so fundamentally misunderstood (hint: they are not small dogs), what it took to truly see their cats as teachers, and how the whole-home environment of a cat's human family directly impacts feline health. Jae and Adrienne share the story behind their newest product, Antarctic Krill Oil — two years in the making and thoughtfully packaged to preserve its potency — and the science of why omega-3 fatty acids are so critical for cats' kidney, heart, and brain health. They also give a sneak peek at their upcoming book, The Herbal Cat, a comprehensive guide to holistic cat care that's years of lived experience and research in the making. The conversation wraps in beautiful territory: the power of community to shift how we care for animals, staying inside our sphere of influence when headlines feel discouraging, and the profound gift of learning to truly listen to what our cats are asking of us — in their health, their needs, and even their passing.

Ever wondered what your pet is really thinking, or why a bird outside your window seems to pause just for you? The Animal Communication Podcast offers a rare window into those questions, guided by three experienced practitioners: Julie Hirt, Karen Dendy Smith, and Meredith Tollison. This isn't about training tips, but about connection. Each episode is built on their work as Soul Level Animal Communicators®, where they share candid stories and conversations that bridge our human world with the inner lives of animals. You'll hear them explore everyday mysteries-from puzzling behaviors and health concerns to the pure joy of play-as recounted by the animals themselves, both those sharing our homes and those in spirit. It’s a gentle, often surprising journey that redefines our relationship with all creatures, making it a unique listen for families, pet lovers, and anyone curious about the spiritual bonds we share. Presented by Mind Body Spirit.fm, this podcast invites you to slow down and listen in a whole new way.
