030: Pet Parenting Done Right

 

Is your home overrun with hardly-used dog + cat toys, like mine?

Do you find yourself wondering whether there’s an eco-friendly alternative to those plastic poo bags?

When it comes to pet parenting, it’s easy to buy All. The. Toys. It’s easy to forget about sustainability, too.

That’s where today’s episode comes in.

My guest is Kim Almon. She’s a blogger, animal-lover + expert on sustainability + minimalism as they apply to our furry friends. On today’s episode, we: 

– Answer the pet-related questions YOU ask ME most, including reuses for dog food bags, the most sustainable litter box practices + more, 

– Outline pros + cons of pet subscription boxes, and

– Detail Kim’s eco-friendly pet movement, #take3forthetrees, so that you, too, can participate. 

Enjoy!
