## Resource

It’s the 300th episode of Cattitude, and Michelle Fern is celebrating in a big way with a very special guest: Valerie Bertinelli! From One Day at a Time to Hot in Cleveland, Valerie has been part of our lives for decades—but on this episode, cat lovers get to meet a whole different side of her: devoted cat mom, passionate animal lover, voracious reader, and the heart behind her new projects, including Getting Naked and Valerie’s Place. Valerie shares hilarious and heartfelt stories about her feline family—Batman, Henry, Tigger, Bubba, and Beau—along with the chaos, cuddles, spraying, scratching, litter box drama, and unconditional love that come with life in a multi-cat household. She also opens up about vulnerability, grief, books, food, and why animals help us see ourselves with more compassion. It’s funny, warm, deeply real, and the perfect way to mark this milestone episode of Cattitude.
