Kicking off season three, host Adam Brown is joined by comedian, actor and writer Diona Doherty. Diona is a star of The Blame Game, Derry Girls, Blue Lights and sell-out stand-up tours. She lost her two cats Zippy and Buttons, and so discusses pet bereavement with Adam, who also recently lost his beloved Ruby, and Victoria, from the Cats Protection Paws to Listen grief support service.

But while there’s some tears, there’s a lot of laughter too as the team celebrate the cats they have loved and lost, and Diona discusses how she comes up with names for her pets.

Note: this episode covers grief and loss. If you are going through a loss yourself, you can find tools and support at cats.org.uk/grief
