In this episode, Kathy Stevens and Kelly Mullins discuss:

* Kelly’s journey from a meet-and-potatoes family to becoming the Animal Care Director at Catskill Animal Sanctuary.

* What it takes to be the Animal Care Director of an animal sanctuary.

* Recognizing the emotional life of animals.

Key Takeaways:

* Terms like “cage-free” and “grass fed” are marketing ploys to try and convince people to buy meat and animal products.

* A sanctuary’s job is to ensure each animal thrives as much as possible.

* There is no typical day in a sanctuary due to the nature of the work.
