Sponsors of the Show
Weruva & Best Feline Friend (BFF) Cat foods – Tracie considers Weruva the gold standard for cat food: it is made in a human food factory using top-notch ingredients. Weruva and their other brand BFF (Best Feline Friend) usually appeal to even the most finicky cats who have become hooked on dry food. Weruva is the food she recommends when you're trying to get a cat off the harmful carbohydrates of "kitty crack" and onto quality protein in a can. The Official Cat Food of the show.
Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat Litters & Urine Removal Program
This wonderful private company, owned and run by a veterinarian who is a Feline Practitioner has joined Tracie's team as a website sponsor. The Official Litter of the Show.
Platinum Performance — Tracie has been using the joint supplements and other nutraceuticals made by this company for her horses, donkeys, dogs, cats and herself for years with sensational results – so she is especially proud that Platinum Performance is the founding sponsor of DOG TALK®.
NekoFlies: What is Missing in your Kitty Cat’s Life? Does your kitty cat look bored & lonely? Put the Zing! Back in your kitty cat’s life! Cats are born to be hunters and their passion to chase prey and pounce on them is part of their very essence. Sadly, most of our kitties don’t have opportunity to express that wild and crazy natural side of themselves. Because it is no longer safe for cats to go outdoors (except in an enclosure) their modern lifestyle means hours of doing nothing indoors — until now, with the invention of NEKOFLIES! Neko Flies is the Official Cat Toy of the Show. Read more on the Nekoflies sponsor page.
Whole Life: Tracie is Thrilled to Welcome Whole Life Pet as the New Official Dog & Cat Treats of Her Radio Shows. Whole Life Pet is an amazing family-owned and run Super Premium freeze-dried treat company in the Berkshires in Massachusetts, where all of the pure protein treats are made from human grade meat, chicken, turkey and fish. The family controls every aspect of the manufacturing process and works directly with the farmers and fisherman who supply their meats and fish, which are proudly sourced in the USA. Every guest on DOG TALK® (and Kitties, Too!) and Cat Chat® will receive a gift of Whole Life treats to share with their four-legged family members—because “Your Cat Deserves a Treat Today” and Your Dog Needs Fewer but Better Snacks!” Read more on the Whole Life sponsor page.
