Unlock the heart and soul of feline welfare with EC Michaels from the Cat Care Society, as we share an intimate conversation about a lifetime spent in the company of cats. This episode isn’t just another talk – it’s a journey through the passion-fueled world of cat care, punctuated by the society’s groundbreaking work with special needs felines. 

EC divulges the intricacies of a cage-free haven for those whiskered friends battling FELV and FIV, painting a vivid picture of an organization that has evolved over forty years to meet the ever-changing demands of cat welfare and adoption.

Discover the delicate balance of intake pressures, medical care, and the essential role of a foster network, all while reconstructing volunteer support in a post-pandemic world.
