2008-05-07 23:29:31 - Animal Radio® welcomes legendary singer Sheena Easton to this week's line-up. Easton is afraid she'll become the proverbial "cat-lady." She has a special connection with her felines "The Original Gangstas."

She shares her furry-bond with Animal Radio® listeners - this weekend on the nationally syndicated program.

Joining Easton is Animal Planet Emergency Vet Dr. Kevin Fitzgerald. The former Rolling Stones roadie turned comedian slash veterinarian makes his 17th appearance on Animal Radio® - telling stories about things he's found in dog's stomachs - like a steak-knife.

Also this weekend, Richard Pryor's wife

Jennifer Pryor on the late comedian's animal legacy. Not to many people knew the funny-man to be an animal advocate during his off-hours. "If you've ever seen him on-stage, animals are a big part of his act," says Pryor.

Hear this special Mother's Day special on any of the 97 AM-FM Animal Radio® affiliates including KOST 103.5 FM Los Angeles and XM Satellite Radio channel 158 (America's Talk) Saturdays at noon EST, and again Sunday at 9am EST.
