The Pet Show Interview with Rob Thomas

The amazing true story behind the rescue of America's favorite cat.

Today on The Pet Show, we speak with the comedienne and founder of Stand Up for Pits Rebecca Corry. Through her foundation, Corry has changed the conversation about pit bulls from aggressive beast to loving family pet and sought to raise penalties for dog fighting and fight legislation that discriminates against these beautiful animals. It's a wide ranging and illuminating conversation; check it out!

The Pet Show rewinds to the very beginning of the social media obsession with cats and talks with Mike Bridavsky, the owner of L'il Bub.

Mike takes us back to the beginning and tells the tale of Bub with warmth, empathy, and humility.

They celebrate not just one dog but all dogs - giving thanks to those animals that love us unconditionally.
