25.01.2022 Combining animal communication with behavioural training to maximise results. My cat Pumpkin is 18 years old. I recently got a new puppy, and wanted to make sure that the two of them adapted happily to their life together. We used:... - Counter-conditioning (with food) to reward calm/appropriate behaviour when around each other. The more often this is positively reinforced, the more likely it is to occur again. - Environmental modification: setting up safe spots for Pumpkin to retreat to if he wanted space (the lattice barrier in the photo, plus numerous high benches and hidey-holes). Generally, pets will choose to move away if they can, to avoid conflict. - Animal communication: talking to both Pumpkin and Paddy the puppy to check in on how they were feeling; were the strategies working and was there anything else that could be improved? To my surprise, after a week or so of this, they began interacting more and more. At times it looked like they were play fighting, but I wanted to make sure both animals were comfortable with the situation. Paddy confirmed that he loved it, and he loved his cat brother! A snippet of my conversation with Pumpkin is shown below, my part in italics.

22.01.2022 A very special dog from my extended family has just ‘crossed the rainbow bridge’. Rex was the first dog that captured my heart; and he was the starting point for the journey that I’m now on. I communicated with him last week; some of his words are included here. It was an absolute joy to have him in my life, and a privilege to be able to speak to him in this way.

20.01.2022 I've just finished Reiki 2 - Practitioner training, so I can now do distance healings for our animal friends

17.01.2022 Animals tell us the truth; and it's often not what we want to hear. I've been at a workshop and Triton stayed in a boarding kennel for 3 nights. On night one, I checked in, hoping he'd tell me how well he was going, and that I needn't worry. Instead, he said he was cold, sad and he wanted a cuddle. "Mummy, I don't like it, I'm alone and bored". My heart broke. My first instinct was to pull away, pretend it wasn't happening. Try and convince myself that he was fine. Or, on ...the flip side, could I come home early and take him out? Instead, I explained that if at all possible, I'd like him to stay, as I had important work to do. I suggested that each night, we visualise him sleeping at the foot of my bed, like he does at home. I asked - would that help? and he said yes. I kept my energy connected to him as I fell asleep, and felt our combined presence comforting each other. Animals don't protect our ego when communicating, but that gives us the opportunity to improve, which ultimately is what this is all about.

14.01.2022 I'm looking for Case Study animals to use for my assessment. Totally free reading, in exchange for some feedback. Please let me know if you are interested. Amy xox
