    <description><![CDATA[<p>We all love our pets, but do we really understand them or see the world from their perspective? Join vets, Dr Maggie Roberts and Dr Vanessa Howie for their must-listen podcast made especially for pet caregivers. They are highly experienced vets who have worked in both companion animal vet practice and the animal charity sector and provide insight into all aspects of pet ownership.</p>
<p>Maggie and Vanessa are passionate about animal welfare and love to share their knowledge in a down to earth, humorous but compassionate way. No pet subject is out of bounds, and they are happy to tackle difficult and controversial topics as well as offering practical advice for anyone already owning a pet or thinking about welcoming one into their home.</p>
<p>Tune into their weekly pet care podcasts for a paw-some mix of entertainment and information.</p>
