We decided we would have more animals before we would ever have a human baby.
Cats are generally clean. They take care of themselves.
The ultimate goal of fostering is to get kittens and cats adopted.
When you go into a person's house, and you smell that wash of cat smell, it's the human's fault, not the cat's. Cats want everything to be clean around them. They want where they live to be clean, they clean themselves, they want a clean litter box.
Everybody thinks, 'Oh, you're married to Howard Stern... You must be laughing all the time.' Yes, we are laughing all the time, but our lives together, it is not crazy.
When cats scratch the furniture, it's only because they're trying to sharpen their claws, which means they get so long that they want to grind them down. So if you trim their claws routinely, it helps tremendously.
My husband and I witnessed firsthand how love truly heals.
I work and I volunteer at North Shore Animal League, so I'm at a shelter environment every single week. And I see these senior pets sitting there looking, craning their necks looking outside of their cages waiting for their person to come back. So I always say check out the adult animals that are there first.
