The Animal Files Podcast
Do you believe animals are sentient beings? That they can feel emotions, pain, and stress? Animals communicate with us all the time, but many of us simply haven’t learned to understand them. We tend to only see the obvious, but that can lead to misunderstandings, behavior challenges, & health challenges. Caring for a companion animal can be one of the most rewarding, yet challenging experiences in our lives. We aim to be a voice for animals and help them to thrive & not just survive in our human world. Our discussions and interviews range from stress in animals to safety, animal welfare to legal concerns, nutrition to communication, behaviors to travel, plus a whole lot more! Because stress affects our pets’ lives in so many ways, this aspect will be touched on in many of our episodes. We are not about being light, fluffy, and safe. We will be delving into areas that are not often talked about and helping you to take a deeper dive into the world of pet care. Our mission is to provide you with information, guidance, & possible choices you can make for the animals in your care while encouraging you to do your own research in order to make the most informed decisions. Each and every week, join Victoria Stigliano-Dzuban, an Animal Spirituality and Energy Facilitator, Animal Translator, and Integrative Energy Healing Practitioner, and Miranda de Haan, a Pet Care Safety Expert & an Animal Health Technologist, as they discuss various topics, interview other pet experts, and offer opportunities for personalized guidance to our community.

Victoria would like to dedicate this episode to her sweet little kitty, Maisie Mae Sparrow, who lost an unexpected and short-lived battle with lymphoma this past Easter.
In this episode, she shares her experiences watching her and her brother, Frankie (who passed in 2021) move through their anxiety struggles and how she was able to help them move through their fears and successfully support them.
For the past 3 1/2 yrs, Maisie had been constant "contributor" to the show and has even appeared as a frequent "guest" during our recordings. Maisie has taught Victoria and her family so much. She is terribly missed but the legacy she and her brother leave behind will go on to help so many. Despite her loss, Victoria is incredibly grateful that Maisie was able to live a very full and happy, albeit short, life with grace and style and she even got to enjoy some fun adventures.
Rest in peace beautiful one. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Tell Frankie we said hi and enjoy your next adventure!
* Maisie Mae Sparrow: July 2019-April 2023 *
