0025_mick_teti-beaudinGuess what?! Today, we’re finally bringing cats back on the show… I hope I didn’t lose all you cat lovers out there with an overdose of dog… yeah right, that’s not even possible is it? There’s no such thing as too much dog!

And if it weren’t for my brief time fostering for Karuna Bully rescue, which, as you may remember, is the pit bull rescue I got Gracie from, if it weren’t for Karuna Bully, I never would have had the opportunity to chat with today’s guest. Mick Teti-Beaudin was a fellow volunteer at the rescue, and I was always amused by the photos she posted on facebook. There’s Angus her pugle and Jakey, her pit bull, who Mick’s always proud to show off as an amazing advocate for his breed.

She may have posted her cats here and there, but I had no idea she was such a cat lady until she started fostering for Andy’s friends and her Facebook feed went feline. Turns out Mick was always crazy about cats, ever since she was a little girl…

Hit play above to hear Mick’s story.
