Val Talks Pets
Hi everyone, and welcome to Val Talk’s Pets, the forum for pet parents and enthusiasts alike. Having been in the pet industry for over 10 years now I am going to share with you issues and questions that arise as I work with pet parents on a day-to-day basis. I am not a veterinarian but I do have certifications in Canine, Feline, Small Animal, Fish and Herptile and Avian Health and Nutrition from the University of California, Davis Extension. Thank you for listening to Val Talks Pets.

"Human" Foods For Pets
Hi everyone, and thanks for joining me on this episode of Val Talk’s Pets!
Have you ever wondered why we separate pet food and human food? Why isn’t it all just… food? Of course, not every meal we eat is safe for dogs, cats, or small pets — but what human foods are perfectly fine to share? Let’s explore which foods beyond traditional pet food are completely safe (and which are not).
We’ll look at proteins, fruits, and vegetables — from chicken to kangaroo, apples to zucchini — and uncover what’s healthy, what’s risky, and what’s just plain off-limits for our furry friends.
