I am often asked to explain what an animal communicator is and how a reading works. I hope the following information will clarify some of these questions.

     Think about a time where you came home from work early and your dog was waiting for you by the front door. You thought to yourself, "how did he know I was coming home?" 

      You were sitting in your favorite chair watching the news and you realized you forgot to feed your cat. You looked up from the TV and noticed your cat standing by her food bowl looking at you expectantly. "How did she know I was thinking of her dinner?" 

     Or maybe you were trying to sleep when you kitten decided your toes would be a tasty teething ring. "Why does he do that?" you muse grumpily trying to go back to sleep.

     These are only some of the questions many pet owners ask themselves throughout the day. Most of the time these thoughts drift in and out without really realizing you have them. But sometimes you notice the question gets asked more than once a day. When that happens how do you get the answer? 

     Maybe you thought about talking to an animal communicator but didn't know how to find one. Maybe you are worried someone will think talking to an animal communicator is a silly idea. Let's change those thoughts! 

     The next time you tell your pet "I wish you could talk to me!" come talk to me instead, Kat Riegel, Animal Communicator.

     To help find the answers to these questions, or any other issue from obsessive behaviors to health concerns, bring a current picture of you pet when we meet.  Many people think the animal needs to be talked with in person, but the conversation does not have to take place face-to-face. Often, when you take an  animal out of his or her own environment it is stressful for the animal. Leaving the animal at home in a familiar and comfortable surrounding is more beneficial to the animal, and they are able to be more relaxed, less defensive, and more open with their communication. 

     For me, a photo is a focal point to ensure communication with one particular animal, especially if a household has more than one pet. The dialogue takes place on a telepathic level. This means distance is not an issue. I am able to talk with animals in Tucson, throughout Arizona, and in other states.  

     In addition to the picture of your pet I need  to know your pet's name and a rough idea of where the pet is located. Once communication is established, I take  a moment to introduce myself and let your pet know that I am talking with it and with you, the owner.  

     In talking with your pet, I can help the pet be heard. Many animals know their humans love them and care about them, but for the pet, this opportunity to express love in return and to ask questions is valuable to helping the pet feel like an important part of the family. There are no right or wrong questions to ask. The questions can be considered fairly simple such as asking if the pet enjoys his food, to more complicated issues about health concerns. Some pets will express a desire to try a specific kind of food, ask for more treats or ask for more play time. Some pets say they are pretty contented and not needing anything at that time. 

     Questions you might consider asking could include behavioral curiosities such as those mentioned above. They may also be more specific, such as any health problem an owner may feel his or her pet is having. 

     Many pets are happier when they feel they have been heard. This is especially true if you are considering getting an additional animal or there will be changes in the household, such as a new baby, a child going away to college, or a new roommate. Talking with your pet to ensure the pet knows what is happening and why is often a huge step to reducing stress in the pet's life. A calm and happy pet will, in turn, help the household to remain calm and happy.
