Episode 1: The Legacy of Rescue, Care, and Advocacy

  • Summary

  • Curtis and Nancy Sliwa introduce the history and purpose of their animal-focused program, which started airing in 2017 on WABC. This shift to a podcast format allows them to continue their mission despite Curtis's mayoral campaign. They discuss a range of topics: the origin of their animal welfare efforts, their work with colony cats, the introduction of an animal protection unit to the Guardian Angels, and the tragic story of a Happy Cat Sanctuary in Long Island. They also discuss the legal and social challenges involving pets, including legislation inspired by tragic animal control incidents, the importance of bodega cats in New York City, and the therapeutic benefits of pet ownership. Curtis announces that animal welfare issues will be a central part of his campaign, with a goal to establish an Animal Welfare line on the mayoral ballot. The episode wraps up with an introduction to their website, guardianangels.org, for more resources and information on pet care and fostering. Learn more about your ad choices.
