You’re Safe, You’re Home, You Matter: Kathy Stevens of Catskill Animal Sanctuary

In 2001, Kathy Stevens walked away from a career in teaching, bought a junkyard, and transformed it into a 110-acre animal sanctuary. Since then, Catskill Animal Sanctuary has cared for over 3,000 animals rescued from situations of cruelty and hoarding.

Still a teacher at heart, Kathy runs camps for children, does outreach in schools, and holds cooking classes at the sanctuary. People who are too far away to visit can read Kathy’s newest book, Animal Camp. In the book they will meet Tucker the steer who thinks he’s a puppy, and Hope the horse with low self-esteem.

Toronto listeners may take special pride in Kathy’s words of admiration for the Toronto Vegetarian Food Festival and the work of Toronto Pig Save and Toronto Cow Save!

EP62: Find Sanctuary with Kathy Stevens of CAS!

Aw, man. The preciousness of Kathy and Rambo in that there photo is almost enough to make me forget about how insanely late this blog post is. Forgive me! As I mentioned in the EP61 Show Notes, I got a LOT going on right now. Epic changes, serious shifts, major moves being made. Some planned, some completely and earth-shakingly unexpected. But never fear, my wonderful friends. The universe is readying me for some very big things, and my (full time) job is to make sure I'm prepared and paying close attention. When this gift falls in my lap, I'm gonna hold on tight and take off like a rocket. Just you watch.

And man, if you're not into this hippy-dippy feelgood malarky, maybe save Red Radio Episode Sixty Two for another day. Because it's sincerely a warm and fuzzy episode, and I LOVE it.
