Animal Party Episode 245 From Pygmy Owls to Pet Monkeys: What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

On this wild episode of Animal Party, Deb Wolfe shares the late-night surprise visitor that swooped into her office—a fierce little northern pygmy owl—and what she learned about these tiny, hummingbird-hunting predators. She dives into quirky and troubling animal news, from Trailer Park Boys’ cat-loving Bubbles actor facing assault charges, to Tom Brady cloning his beloved dog and what it says about nature vs. nurture. Deb also spotlights a retirement “spa” for elderly penguins in New England, a pet monkey wreaking havoc in a Halloween store, and why monkeys make terrible pets. Plus, she unpacks why dogs sneeze when their mood shifts and offers heartfelt advice on keeping pets safe and stress-free—especially far away from scream therapy sessions, fireworks, and chaotic crowds.
