Episode 22 - Cats, with Jenna Fischer A*****e Animals, with Alice
-
- Comedy Interviews
The only 3 certainties in life are: Death, Taxes and the human desire to depict our cats in art. We've been reproducing their likenesses in multiple art forms since we domesticated them 10,000 years ago. From pottery, to hieroglyphics, to black and white photos - we are OBSESSED. In fact, does anyone even remember the Internet without cat videos?
As sure as the day is long, humans have forever been fascinated by cats and their behaviour, despite some of that behaviour being nefarious and downright rude in nature. For that reason, the task of explaining why their rascal-y antics captivates us is a mammoth one. Thankfully, Alice has some help, from kitten fosterer and self-proclaimed cat-person: Jenna Fischer.
Join Jenna and Alice this week as they dive into what makes cat jerks but also why we can't get enough of them. Hear stories of Jenna's foster journey, her cat magazine debut, and how she nearly missed the role of a lifetime to care for our feline friends.
Our "Charity of the Week" is the organisation that Jenna volunteers for: the brilliant "Kitten Rescue", based in Los Angeles - who are on a mission to find every abandoned cat a happy and healthy home. Check out their work and help their incredible cause at: www.kittenrescue.org.
