Recently I was participating in the Maverick Marketing Mastermind Group, a twice monthly group hosted by Caroline Melberg. Participants of this group receive individualized expert marketing advice from Caroline and we are also giving the opportunity to define our goals and create a strategic marketing plan.
During this Mastermind meeting, as I was explaining the benefits of my animal communication services for people and animals, one of the group members, Rebecca Metz of Modern Inconveniences mentioned that she had an experience with her cat and a vet that she would love to share. We set up a scheduled a time for her to share her story with me, and it’s a powerful story that I want to share with you! While this is not true of all vets, this is also not an uncommon story. Thanks Rebecca, for sharing this story with us.
Daisy’s Story
When we first adopted our cat, Daisy, she was so playful and sweet and cuddly. After about a year and a half she seemed to get more aggressive. She became even much more so after our son was born. Daisy was very nice to our baby, but very aggressive towards me and anyone that came to our house. She sometimes was aggressive towards my husband as well. Daisy would bite, hiss and scratch anytime we tried to pet her or cuddle with her. She did not want to lay in our lap anymore. At first we thought this was a temporary phase, but as time went on I was seriously thinking of trying to find a new home for her as I couldn’t sacrifice the safety of our child. It was also very frustrating (and embarrassing) when she was aggressive towards guests in our home. We were known as the people that had a “mean” cat.
I felt horrible because she is a part of our family. Just because you don’t like the behavior of someone in your family, you can’t really just “find them a new home.” I felt very helpless in this situation.
I made a point to discuss the behavior at two yearly visits with her veterinarian. Both times I left feeling even worse because the response was, “This is normal behavior for cats. Try playing with her more and see if it improves.” This response was really frustrating for me because I knew this wasn’t her normal self as I had known her to be very sweet before. Also to play with her more surely meant more aggression from her. I felt like there was nowhere to turn.
Then I met Janet and heard her speak. I was very intrigued. In her introductory speech she talked about some skills we can use with our animals. I also took a look at her website and found even more skills. I tried out what I had learned and ever since Daisy has become much more gentle, approachable and snuggly. I can’t wait to see how much better our relationship will be after working with Janet!
Sincerely,
Rebecca L. Metz

If you have experienced something similar to this, consider connecting with your pet through an animal communicator. Like Rebecca, you might be surprised at how quickly your relationship with your dog, cat, horse or other pet can be dramatically changed for the better!

HI Cher Marie,
Cats do have their own way of looking at things, don’t they? Thanks for visiting and leaving your comment!
