  • Practical Pet Chat Episode 37 - Are AI-driven robotic pets the future of companionship or just a flashy trend?
    2025/10/06
    On this episode of Practical Pet Chat, Lorin and Rob take a closer look at Rob’s recent encounters with robotic, AI-driven pets and ask the big question: are these high-tech companions the future of pet ownership, or are they just another passing trend? The conversation goes beyond the novelty factor to explore what robotic pets could mean for the larger pet world. Lorin and Rob discuss how these lifelike companions might impact the bond between people and their real, breathing pets, how pet parents may respond to this new option, and what role businesses in the pet industry could play if demand for robotic pets grows. From their undeniable entertainment value and convenience to the deeper ethical, emotional, and social questions they raise, robotic pets open the door to a fascinating debate about the nature of companionship itself. Could they ease loneliness, offer comfort to people who can’t care for live pets, or even create new opportunities for learning and therapy? Or will they remain a fun but fleeting curiosity, unable to replicate the irreplaceable connection humans share with living animals? Join Lorin and Rob for a thoughtful, engaging, and sometimes surprising discussion about the possibilities and pitfalls of robotic pets, and what their presence might mean for the future of pet parenting and the industry built around it. It’s all this and more on Practical Pet Chat—the podcast pet parents trust and love.

  • Practical Pet Chat - Episode 36 - Having Grace For Your Pet Parenting Self
    2025/09/28
    On this episode of Practical Pet Chat, Lorin and Rob take on a topic that resonates with nearly every pet parent: the self-judgment we place on ourselves when it comes to caring for our pets. In today’s world, there’s an overwhelming amount of information, advice, and even criticism about how to be the “perfect” pet parent. From social media comparisons to endless product recommendations, it can quickly shift from being inspiring to being discouraging. Lorin and Rob remind us that pet parenting isn’t about competing, keeping up, or doing everything flawlessly — it’s about being present. Our pets don’t measure our worth by the food brand we choose, how many enrichment activities we provide, or whether we never miss a step in training. They value the simple things: our love, attention, and companionship. This conversation explores how to give yourself grace, quiet the noise, and focus on the bond that truly matters. Whether you’re navigating guilt over not doing “enough,” struggling with outside opinions, or just needing a reminder that you and your pet are already doing great, this episode will leave you feeling lighter and more connected to what’s really important. Because at the end of the day, your pet’s greatest joy isn’t in perfection — it’s in you.
