Encore: 20. Man's Other Best Friend | A Conversation with Dr. Kristyn Vitale, Assistant Professor of Animal Health and Behavior at Unity College
Originally released October 11, 2022. New Kindred episodes will drop starting in October 2026.
In this week's episode from our archives, we speak with Dr. Kristyn Vitale, whose work focuses on companion animal behavior, specifically cat social cognition, cat behavior, and human-cat interaction.
Kristyn walks us through why cats can be misunderstood and how we can understand them better, and busting myths that have persisted for far too long.
Turns out Spot and Fido aren't the only ones who can be taught how to sit, stay, and roll over!
