How do you outsmart a vegetable-stealing squirrel?

We kick things off with a head-to-head Kahoot battle and navigate into an interstellar journey with our favorite canine heroes from Texts from Bunsen. We also touch upon an intriguing study about dolphins and their unique communication methods. The journey gets funnier as we share about Adam's adventure at the Calgary Stampede and a surprising fact about cat brains that will leave you awe-struck!

We then shift gears to talk about the tricky English language and accents, sparked by a recent spelling mishap. The discussion leads us to Texts from Bunsen volume two, a project that has kept us intrigued since early July. We also have a heartwarming story about Kris' niece, Ellie, who was captivated by Bunsen and Beaker's educational TikTok videos. And let's not forget the saga of the notorious squirrel with a special liking for Indra's homegrown veggies. We share a few tried-and-tested tips to deter furry intruders and save your garden from a nibbling catastrophe.

As we move forward, we explore some peculiar pet behaviors and unexpected animal encounters in our yards. The episode takes a serious turn with Ann's cat, Herriot's, cancer diagnosis, but there is lots of love in the home as her cat and dog have really bonded.  So, get ready for an episode filled with laughter, learning, and a lot of love for our furry friends.
