Dolores Manzino ,

Incredible Podcast love hearing about Gwen and her felines!

I loved Homer's Odyssey and the followup as well. When I found out that Gwen had a podcast, I just had to listen to it! I love Gwen's interviews with cat experts and authors, as well as hearingabout her daily life with her own cats. I'm a huge fan of this podcast, keep up the great work, Gwen! I'm a huge fan of Homer, Scarlet, Vashti, Clayton and Fannie.

Best podcast on iTunes

I have known Gwen Cooper for over fifteen years, but I feel like I’m meeting her fresh by listening to Curl Up With a Cat. She just gets funnier, warmer, and more relevant with the pandemic. This is my favorite podcast on iTunes and she gives so much of her time and money to shelters and the community of people who love cats.
