    Episode 9: Learning about the Cincinnati Zoo's cat ambassador program and the dogs who are raised with cheetahs

    Guest: Linda Castañeda Lead Trainer for the Cat Ambassador Program         at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden   About Linda: Linda grew up in the concrete jungle of Los Angeles but was inspired by watching David Attenborough throughout her childhood. She was immersed in nature when she attended Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon, where she earned a bachelor’s in Biology. After starting her biology career in field research in Eastern Oregon and then in West Africa, she decided to meld her passions for conservation and animals by making her way into the zoo field. Linda attended the Exotic Animal Training and Management (EATM) program at Moorpark College in Moorpark, CA and found her way to the Cincinnati Zoo as an intern, then a seasonal summer hire. Linda had a brief stretch in Chicago at Lincoln Park Zoo before making her way back to Cincinnati Zoo. She spends her day working with a variety of African species, including cheetahs, servals, a porcupine, a red river hog and domestic dogs and cats.  While Linda is obsessed with cheetahs, she also works with global fishing cat conservationists through the Fishing Cat Conservation Alliance, where she serves on the board.  What you will learn in this Episode: What is the Cincinnati Zoo Cat Ambassador Program, how did it start and why is it important? What types of training does Linda and her staff do with the cheetahs? Why do they raise baby cheetahs with dogs? How can you help?   For more information, please visit these links: https://www.cincinnati.com/story/entertainment/2024/05/01/cheetahs-dogs-friends-cincinnati-zoo/73499121007/ https://cincinnatizoo.org/becoming-an-ambassador-kris-and-remus-update/ https://cincinnatizoo.org/celebrating-cathryn-hilker-on-her-90th-birthday/     Learn more about your host Lisa Desatnik, CPDT-KA, FFCP, FDM, CPBC, at www.SoMuchPETential.com

    Episode 3: When Your Pet Crosses The Rainbow Bridge - Part 2

    EPISODE 3 SHOW NOTES Episode 3:  Helping Parents Support Their Children Through Pet Loss   This is my Part Two episode with Tammy Wynn, founder and CEO of Cincinnati based pet hospice, Angel’s Paws. In Part Two, we talked about supporting your pet, yourself and others through pet loss, on the journey to and past the Rainbow Bridge. If you haven’t already, I encourage you to listen to that episode (Episode 2).   In this episode, our focus is on pet loss through the perspective of parents who share a life with human and non-human kids. Tammy and Joel Altman co-authored a beautiful book Gaining Wings, that helps families with kids deal with the grief of losing a pet over the Rainbow Bridge. In the book, pages are compassionately mixed with explaining love and loss through a story for kids, and well thought out tips for parents. In a very gentle way, this book normalizes loss and grief, and reminds families to cherish the experiences and love shared. There are suggestions for creating a bucket list of activities to maximize families’ remaining time with their pet, and preplanning ways to celebrate their pet so as not to forget.  Some of the points that will be covered in this discussion include: Why you should put on your own oxygen mask as a first step An explanation of a child’s perspective on pet loss How to talk to your child about pet loss How you can involve your child in the process of saying good-bye For more information about Angel’s Paws, please visit www.AngelsPaws.com To purchase the book, Gaining Wings, please visit www.GainingWings.com For information on your host, Lisa Desatnik, please visit www.SoMuchPETential.com.

    Episode 1: Meet Lisa Desatnik, your host of Lives Touched By Pets.

    I have always had a heart for nonhuman animals. It was about 24 years ago when I began studying behavior because of a problem that I had with my own pet. I was really fortunate at the time to have found Dr. Susan Friedmann, who then had a listserv for parent owners around the world, teaching people how to solve issues using ABA or Applied behavior Analysis with their own pets. I'll tell you what, it opened my heart. It opened a floodgate of curiosity, and I have not stopped learning ever since then. I first began writing about behavior, and I kept studying and studying and gradually, with more knowledge, I started earning certifications. I then went full-time into training, and now I do a lot of both consultations and training for manners and helping puppies to succeed, and also working with families that have some pretty difficult and challenging behavior issues with their pets. It's really rewarding.
