Show Notes

Hi everyone!  Thanks for checking out this episode of The Science Pawdcast!
This week in Science News we talk about how ants are able to will themselves to live longer by changing their biochemistry.  In Pet Science we look at a very cool study about the amount on crime in a neighbour and dog ownership!  Our guest in ask and expert is Dr. Sebastiaan Bol who wows us with the science of cats and catnip!  He also sent us some samples of catnip and catnip like plants to try with Ginger over the next month!
Adam's wacky family section rounds out the episode!
