It's our last episode of the year and what better way to wrap up 2024 and our Corvid Compendium with this, the Queen of the Corvids, the Magpie! We discuss superstition, nursery rhymes and learn that not all Magpies are the gothic babes we westerners might think of.
Thank you all so much for supporting us this year! We can't wait to yap like magpies with you some more in 2025!

Tis the season for Sugar Plum Faries, dancing swans and, of course, Nutcrackers. But did you know the Nutcracker isn't just decorative wooden man, but actually a kind of CORVID? Well it is! And this week we learn all about the Nutcracker bird as we continue our Corvid Compendium. Plus, we have a very fun Ready Pet Go from Altaay and Mochi!

Alexis has been working hard to become a city witch by befriending the neighborhood ravens. This made us curious about all of our corvid friends! So, we're starting the Corvid Compendium, where we take a deep dives into various corvids! We begin with the classic: Ravens! They're mysterious, smart, and full of some very fascinating mythology, some of which is still relevant today! Will London fall if the Tower of London ravens leave? Seems highly likely to us!

One thing about us is that we LOVE a personality quiz and today we're discussing the ultimate one. We deep dive into daemons, chat about what exactly is required of an animal companion and share our own daemon results. Also a post-halloween update!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN COMFIES! This episode is full of myths as well as myth busting! Basilisks may be petrifying to look upon, but is it because they have a fatal stare... or just because they're so utterly bizarre looking??? And where did the whole Don't-Look-Them-In-The-Eye thing come from anyway? Could it be cobras and their gnarly, squirting poison? We also deep dive into some seriously cool snake-related stories and may or may not throw some shade at a certain fantasy series...

It's frankly rude of us to have not devoted a full episode to these little dudes before -- especially as Alexis is obviously part raccoon. We discuss raccoon legends, the difference between racoons and racoon dogs and of course, provide you with much animal trivia. It's our love language after all!
Don't forget to send us your animals in halloween costumes! Or yourself in a halloween costume! Especially if it's an animal!

Not only is Jennifer S. Holland the author of the fantastic book Dog Smart: Life-Changing Lessons in Canine Intelligence, but she's also the owner of two very cool dogs. Normally that would be PLENTY of interesting things, but Jennifer also has some incredible stories of her time working for National Geographic, including scuba diving and meeting orangutans! We discuss the power of dog noses, types of intelligence, cadaver dogs, and much more!

Cosy season is upon us! Well it's upon Ella, who lives somewhere with actual seasons. Because Alexis can only dream of sweater weather, we're bringing the back to school vibes to her and discussing getting our ducks in a row. Packing out pets pack lunches. Sewing labels int their sports kits. Signing them up for drama club. That kid of thing. Elsewhere Alexis returns to school and is joined by some fish and we have a ready pet go from Rose!

On this episode we discover that we have Big Feelings about cats that dont exist. TV show Arthur is once more subject to scutiny and criticism, we debate pets vs familiars and share our thoughts on those that aren't really cats but are in fact something Else masquerading as cats.
-
We are joined this week by author Kat Dunn who supplies us with tales of many, many cats after which she is not named. We talk naming conventions, the joy of a feline being both graceful and goofy and whether meows can be accented.

This week we become a very serious news podcast again, discussing everything from art and high culture to important medical discoveries. If you think this is us overstating somewhat well, we're offended quite frankly. Tune in to see how wrong you are.

*ROAR!*
You would be forgiven for thinking that that was our best lion impression. In fact it was our best Leo impression because boy do those fire signs like to make their presence known! To demonstrate our love and appreciation for these sweet summer children, today's episode dives deep into Lions - we have myths, magic and much animal trivia because it is, after all, our love languageSend us YOUR pet stories (Ready, Pet, Go!) at [email protected] and don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe!

We were today years old when we discovered that the Asiatic Black Bear is also known as... the Moon Bear! We think this is adorable and as its Moon Bear awareness day, we thought we'd tell you all about them. You can thank us later. Also, Alexis teaches Ella all about "splooting", thanks to a Ready Pet Go from Hansie!
