Episode 3: Tackling Rescue, Reform, and Responsibility
On this episode, Nancy discusses her role in Curtis's mayoral campaign focusing on 'Protect Animals,' an independent line to address animal welfare topics. The episode touches on multiple concerns including medical assistance, pet food costs, public registries for animal abusers, no-kill shelters, and the elimination of sales tax on pet food. The couple elaborates on the challenges faced by animals during wildfires, dangerous rat poisons impacting urban wildlife, and calls for promoting cat colonies over toxic poisons for rodent control. They discuss Robert Holden’s bill addressing inhumane rodeo practices, the problematic sale of live chicks, and the risks of bird flu from urban wet markets. Additionally, the podcast covers stories of wild turkeys in urban areas and human impacts on wildlife. Curtis and Nancy conclude by emphasizing advocacy for rescue groups and the importance of recognizing volunteers' efforts in animal protection.
