Dear animal loving friends: I know how much you love your dogs, your cats, your bunnies, your sweet birds, your horses. You love them as much as your own children. Some animals even more than your own children, you have told me. You refer to yourselves as their guardians, not their owners. I know the […]
The Human-Animal Connection
A Sentimental Swim with a Sea Turtle…
This turtle painting by Artist Susan Clifton takes me back to the time I was straddling the bow of a boat sailing full stream ahead over the Bermuda Triangle. I clung to the rails as I was swept through dimensions of our ancient past. That was the feeling I got from the brilliant gold turtle […]
9 Pet Ways of Surviving the Holidays
1. Breathe deeply like an animal. After all, you are one. Oh yes. You are. 2. Smile. Your pets don’t roll their eyes when dust balls roll into view. So what if your guests by the Yule log sipping vegan eggnog roll theirs? Shrug off their reactions the way a dog shakes off bath water. 3. Feel […]
Coming to Our Senses Re: Animal Intelligence
An old Scientific American article on animal intelligence, is largely about whales and the need for us to come to our senses in how we view animals. Reading it again is for me a soothing validation of what many of us know to be true about animals. And a confirmation of my own ‘sense-abilities’ as a small […]
Who’s the True Alpha Dog Here?
We get stuck in human mindsets. We look at a dog bullying and chasing other dogs. We think, wow, that’s a true alpha dog. We don’t question if that dog is in his true power. We don’t look beneath his bravado to see if he might in fact be scared and putting up a false […]
Animal communicators are skilled experts in animal communication, but sometimes only human in what they tell you.
Again, the limits of human logic: One late night, I got an emergency call from a client to tell me his cat had been missing for 3 days. He was freaked out, to say the least. I didn’t have the heart to ask him to wait until morning for a session when I would be […]
Love is Most Effective in Animal Communication
Unlike animal training, animal communication is not about manipulation. It’s about love. Pure unconditional love no matter how long it takes for a cat to agree to pee in the box, or a dog to get in the car. Bob is an 18-month-old Golden Retriever pup. His guardians spent thousands of dollars to have him […]
Animals are Our Best Communicators
Clear. Honest. Precise. To the point, with corresponding heartfelt emotion driving their point home. That’s an animal for you. You don’t have to be a professional animal communicator like me to know that. Nonhuman animals don’t put up smokescreens that lay heavily on our hearts snuffing out moments of Truth. We do. We’re polite. Each […]
If Warm-Blooded Pets Could Write a Book…
…it would be called, “The How to Love Guide, written by your Animal Guides.” The “Forward” would begin like this: True Love is invincibility cloaked in vulnerability. Hmm. I hope they’ll let me ghostwrite the book for them. I’ll ask my dachshund animal communicator muse what she thinks. What about you? Would you be interested […]
Who’s That Ape in My Mirror?
I just signed a petition asking Air France to stop transporting primates for research labs. Not that any of us are totally innocent of the extreme cruelty inflicted on animals more or less a strand or two away from being human. Using primates, or any feeling, sensitive, heart-based animal – mice included – in research […]
