Ever wondered how animals communicate and what we can learn from them? Join us on this week's Pet Chat as we play a Kahoot game that explores the fascinating animals in our homes and beyond, including the mysterious molecule found on Saturn's moon, Enceladus. Congratulations to our Kahoot winners - Katrina, Millie, Schnauzer, Carousel, and Rosie!

Come along with us on a neighborhood adventure with our lovable pets, Bunsen and Beaker, as we discover local wildlife and the beauty of our surroundings. We discuss the deer wandering nearby, a beaver dam that's drastically changed the creek, and how this all affects our furry friends. As we explore the great outdoors, we also dive into the world of muskrats and beavers in mid-Southern Ohio with some timely advice from a guest!

Finally, let's talk about freckles – canine freckles, that is! We introduce you to Alistair's dog, an adorable border collie with a unique pattern of freckles on his nose. Hear how this trait makes him stand out from other collies and why we simply can't resist our furry companions, even when they're causing a bit of trouble. So, sit back, relax and join us for this heartwarming and informative episode of Pet Chat!
