Ep. 14: Cat Herders Day
Crazy about cats? We have a feline this episode is purr-fect for you! Join hosts Tim and Paz and their guest, Davis Liao, founder of the CrazyCat Charity Association, as they talk about the charity and all things cat. Hear about what cat herding is and isn’t. Then discover whether these are cat’s meows or pet peeves: purrs like a cat, unmanageable, 呼嚕, and… cat!

TNVR – trap, neuter, vaccinate, and return – is the mechanism the charity uses to help the stray cat population in its community to stay healthy.
acknowledge – (v.) 察覺、認可…屬實或存在
Depending on their mood or the temperature in Timbuktu, cats may or may not acknowledge your return, but even if they don’t come to you or meow, they do notice!
