Discussions of domestic violence, abuse, homelessness, and other difficult living situations almost always focus on the human victims- as they should. But animals are often involved in these situations, too, which can cause added complications. Victims are sometimes reluctant to leave an abusive or unsafe living situation because they fear leaving their pet behind, while those with limited resources, such as elderly or homeless individuals may struggle to give their pets the care they need. Social worker Carol Ann Adams joined Julie Fudge Smith and Tina Spring to talk about how best to help both people and pets who find themselves in a crisis situation.
CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains discussions of domestic abuse and intimate partner violence. Listeners with small children or who are particularly sensitive to these topics may want to exercise discretion when listening.
