The Big Time with Whitney Allen

What did you want to be when you were 5? And really…what kid actually gets to be the astronaut, rockstar, explorer, or radio host?!? Whitney Allen, that’s who! Her parents bought her a red transistor radio (that she slept with under her pillow every night) and adopted her first cat, Thomasina (who slept with her every night.) That’s when she knew, it was radio or animals. Since she was better at talking than biology, she knew she was going to be on the radio. So at the age of 5, she set out to make it BIG.

When she’s not on the radio, or backstage at the biggest country concerts,  Whitney loves the outdoors, redecorating, napping, and Mexico. Her furry kids, Leela, Ramon, Bixby “The Bird” (who is actually a dog)  and Renault-International Cat of Mystery , But Mattie, Paloma, Flue and Chakita, Luna, Winchmore and so many others live forever in her heart.  Whitney also volunteers for “Leave No Paws Behind” an organization that focuses on fostering  elderly and health challenged dogs who have been abandoned by their owners AND assisting other  owners who want to keep, but cannot afford the medical costs that often come with fulfilling your promise to your elderly dog. Her  foster dogs Angelica, Pudgie La Roo, had a welcome in Whitney’s home as did  the four 3 week old  bottle fed kittens who now work as emotional support cats in a home for older adults.
