Deborah begins with the dog take on the Israel-Turkey boat situation plus a comment on fearmongering and h1n1 in the news yet again. Then we go walking on the cat side for most of this show asking first, do good cats really wear black? Deborah explains the plight of black dogs in shelters and that plus the bad luck myth gives black cats bad chances when homeless. Annie Bruce, author of ‘Cat Be Good’ (now available free on line), joins us to answer your behavior calls and emails to solve a curtain climbing cat and an eight year old Persian who won’t or can’t use the litter box for urine. Annie explains how declawing plays a role in every training answer she gives.
