In this fun new episode, host Adam talks to one of the UK’s most loved TV presenters and novelists, Fern Britton, about her brilliantly named cats Barbara and Dr Ian Mackerel.

The two discuss how lovely it is to come home to a cat, how cats can help or hinder your work, with Fern describing losing pages of writing to cats walking across her keyboard, and just how important it is to talk to your cats with your special cat voice!  

Fern also reveals she’s been working with cats a lot more thanks to her new ITV show Fern Britton: Inside The Vet’s, recording the highs and lows of life in a busy vet practice.  

Behaviourist Nicky joins to discuss feline bladder infections and whether it is better to visit your poorly cat at the vet or if it causes them too much stress.
