Pet Acoustics: We're All Ears!

Welcome to We're All Ears , where we explore the remarkable world of hearing wellness and the profound role sound plays in the lives of animals. Today's story begins with two dogs. One was thirteen years old. The other was seven. They had spent their lives together—eating together, walking together, sleeping near each other. The older dog was confident and independent. The younger dog followed his...

Welcome to We’re All Ears —where we explore the world as animals experience it… through sound, behavior, and the subtle signals that shape their well-being. Today’s episode is a quiet one.  A reflective one. Because this is about a kind of care that often goes unseen…  but is deeply felt. To every woman who has sat on the floor with a sick animal at midnight… Not rushing.  Not reacting.  Just… pre...

Welcome to We’re All Ears , where we explore the emotional and sensory lives of animals—and how they experience the world around them. Today we’re talking about separation anxiety. Not just from the pet’s perspective, but from the pet parent’s as well. Because separation is never one-sided. When a dog or cat is left alone, it isn’t simply “quiet time.” It’s a sudden shift in their entire sensory w...

Hi everyone, I’m Janet Marlow, founder of Pet Acoustics, and welcome to We’re All Ears —where we explore the science of how sound shapes the emotional lives of animals. Let me start with a question. Why is it… that the moment a cat sees the carrier, everything changes? You can have the calmest cat…  and suddenly they disappear.  They hide.  They resist.  Sometimes they panic. And many people think...

Welcome to We’re All Ears. Today’s episode is dedicated to a very special group of people…People who have lint rollers in every room. People who’ve accepted that black clothing is now a memory. People who say things like,  “I can’t move, the cat is sleeping on me.” This episode is for cat owners. Because there are things only cat owners understand.

One of the most meaningful shifts happening right now in animal care is the recognition that sound is not just something animals hear—it is something their nervous system uses to regulate their body and behavior. For decades, veterinarians have observed changes in animals that could not always be explained by physical examination alone. Animals who appeared physically healthy, yet were vigilant. A...

Long before a horse reacts with movement, their nervous system has already scanned the environment acoustically. A distant footstep. The creak of a gate. Wind moving through trees. These aren’t background...
