As heard by us

Based on 6 episodes we listened to · September 2026

Lizzie makes pet behavior easier to read by connecting practical care questions with the emotions and assumptions owners bring to them.

Lizzie treats pet care as a conversation between animal behavior and human responsibility. Guest interviews sit beside solo myth-busting, moving from nutrition and neutering to feline senses, stress signals and the emotional barriers that can keep owners from acting on…

Short reviews from the PlayNext desk, based on the episodes we processed.

S4, Ep2: You can only help someone at their level - with Rebecca HanlonMar 11, 2026

Practical pet advice that starts with guilt, fear, and the limits of what people can hear.

Rebecca Hanelan's conversation about helping people at their level is really about the gap between good advice and actual change. The episode treats pet care as a human problem as much as an animal one, with guilt, money worry, fear, and overwhelm named plainly instead of…

S4, Ep1: Fur babies vs Human babiesFeb 9, 2026

A warm domestic comparison about mess, care, and the habits homes make to handle both pets and babies.

The episode uses the fur-babies-versus-human-babies comparison in a straightforward, readable way, with routines, mess, and the small negotiations that shape a home doing most of the work.

S3, Ep5: Christmas with our pets, that's a wrap for 2025!Dec 22, 2025

A calm, practical guide to keeping pets comfortable when the house gets busy.

Christmas hosting gets framed as a household logistics problem, and that makes the piece easy to trust. It keeps returning to the practical stuff that matters: who is coming over, which animals are in play, where they can get away from the noise, and how to stop the whole place…

S3, Ep 4: a little insight into our cats on the eve of halloweenOct 30, 2025

A practical cat guide that turns smell, diet, and Halloween timing into useful advice.

The episode takes a practical route through cat behavior, using Halloween timing and everyday pet-owner chatter to make the subject feel less mysterious. It starts with diet, then moves through smell as a tool for communication, territory, navigation, hunting, and recognition.

S3, Ep3: The stigma around our pets having fleasOct 1, 2025

A calm, practical listen that treats flea trouble as a household problem, not a personal failing.

This episode keeps its focus on the everyday awkwardness of fleas in a home with pets, which helps the topic land as practical rather than clinical. Lizzie Marden draws on recent first-hand experience with her three cats, and that gives the discussion an easy, lived-in feel.

S3, Ep2: Debunking pet factsSep 15, 2025

A calm, practical myth-busting listen that works through a long list of pet facts.

This episode gives pet myths a calm, practical cleanup. It opens by asking listeners to add more pet facts in the comments, then moves through a long run of debunks without losing the thread.

S2, Ep15: Heatwaves & our pets in the UKJul 21, 2025

Practical heat advice that treats pet care like real life, not weather folklore.

The advice uses the UK heatwave as a clear way into a practical problem: pet routines can turn unsafe fast once the temperature climbs. It stays focused on the basics that matter, from deciding when to skip the walk entirely to why an early start is better than waiting until…

S2, Ep14: Guest Speaker ~ Rebecca Hanlon: Nutritional myth busting!Jul 7, 2025

A steady reset for anyone trying to separate dog-food facts from everyday worry.

Lizzie and Rebecca keep this one practical. They treat dog food myths as something to sort with plain sense, not alarm, and the result is a calm pass through raw food worries, salmonella, and the basic fact that dogs do not digest like people do.
