Pete Marra joins us for a special episode to talk about his (and Chris Santella’s) book Cat Wars: The Devastating Consequences of a Cuddly Killer. We originally posted this for his talk last year at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia. Billy has an article coming out in Grid Magazine about outdoor cats, and it seemed like a good moment to post this one again. Stay tuned for our deeper dive into the outdoor cat literature.
