More About Loving Your Pet Gently

There are times when your pets or even animals that are not your pets but trust you and come to you that these loved ones may not welcome a physical touch for what ever reason but you can show your love by petting their energy body* - sometimes called an auric field.

I recommend you try this gently. Move your hand as close as you can get to them - say it’s a butterfly. They probably won’t like it if you get much closer than a foot or 10 inches (30.48 or  or 25.4 centimeters) from them and first show them your hand, your palm of your hand - so that would be maybe a foot and a half or 2 feet  (45.72 or 60.96 centimeters) away from them just so they can see it. When you show it to them have your palm facing up or mostly up so they won’t think you’re going to strike them.

Then move your hand, with your palm facing towards the animal, from head to tail very gently, very slowly once. If it is a bird, very slowly not coming any closer than they’re comfortable with - I recommend 8 to 10 inches (20.32 to 25.4 centimeters) most likely.

If there is great fondness then maybe closer but the reason I want you to learn how to pet their energy body is that not everyone wants to be picked up - alright? 

If you’ve ever had somebody try to pick you up and you didn’t want it, you know how that feeling is. Sometimes you want to pick up your cat or your dog and they don’t want it. They’re busy, they’re doing something else or they’re just more comfortable not being held at that moment.

So if they’re comfortable with it, you can pet their energy body**.

* Greetings. Today I'd like to talk to you briefly about something you can do with your beloved pets.

 Sometimes you have noticed, people who have cats eh, that you go to pet your cat or you want to pick your cat up to pet it and cat runs away or lets you know that it doesn't want to be petted then and it can be disconcerting. 

 I'd recommend this - for some cats they will be involved you see, in meditations. You have seen this sometimes - or they will be in a light state of concentration connecting with their peers perhaps or the home planet - who knows. Cats are mysterious and are clearly designed to be in our lives to support our quest for the unknown besides being a comfort as they often are.

 This is what I recommend and it can be applied I might add, to dogs or any animal that is otherwise distracted or in pain or elderly and cannot receive touch comfortably. First observe the contours of cats body since I'm using cat for an example here today. Then once you've observed that, approach cat from a distance.

 Don't get much closer than a few feet away with your hand - don't touch cat. Perhaps you'll be standing over cat, and do not make like you're going to touch cat or even think about touching cat because cats are perceptive and so are dogs I might add and other creatures as well. 

 Then standing about oh, a foot or two away from cat or whatever is your arms length reach towards cat with your right or left hand as if you were going to pet cat but pet them slowly from a distance of about two to even as much as three feet following the contour of their body.

 You might say - well, what comfort is there in this - but I will get there - and see if cat has any reaction. Cat might look at you, might seem comforted, might enjoy the experience but you see - what you are doing is that you are petting along the general lines of the cats auric field and cat will be comforted - feeling safe. That is the key to understanding this process.

 We all want and need to feel safe and your cat or your dog or other being that you love needs to feel safe and such petting is an honoring of their personal space and whatever they are engaged in even though it may not be obvious to us at the moment.

** For instance, not long ago I recommended to a friend that when his cat was busy - and he's very fond of his cat - or his cat was not feeling well and he wanted to pet his cat to soothe it and calm it that he could pet his cats auric field by moving his hand towards his cat and when he felt a slight resistance or a slight feeling in his own body that that was as close to his cat as his hand ought to be.

 Then with the palm of his hand facing his cat he could follow the contours of his cats body just as if he was petting the cat from head to tail.

 In that case it would be good to make strokes from head to tail, pull your hand back and then move your hand towards your cats head and go head to tail. This way you're not pushing the energy back and forth.

Why Do Cats Do That?

Do you know, there is an aspect of the personality of cats, whether large or small, that many human beings find repulsive and I’m not saying that you shouldn’t find it that way but I do want to explain to you why it exists.

The aspect I’m talking about is how cats can sometimes, not all the time, when they capture a creature that usually you don’t want in your homes and that’s a mouse - and cats will capture and kill and usually consume but not always, mice. But if you have seen this in process you will see sometimes cats seeming to be cruel to the mouse. They’ll let it go and catch it again or they’ll hold it by its tail while it tries to get away. In short, it appears that they are torturing their victim.

This is something cats were willing to take on on Earth though on their home planet they do not act like that. Still it’s important for you to know that there is a reason just like there is a reason for everything.

Cats do this, this cruelty thing - not the consumption part but the cruelty because they are siphoning off part of the cruelty that human beings would use otherwise against each other or against other species of beings.

It is not unusual on this planet for non-human beings to take on traits of human beings whether those human beings are healthy or not and will often do this, if they’re a personal pet, for love but other times will do it because it is part of their job, you might say. 

Human beings come to this planet, as has been explained in the Explorer Race material to learn, to grow, to change and to create things that might be useful in some way in the rest of the universe where it has been difficult to create such things. 

The difficulty usually lies in the fact that the type of stress that’s needed, an urgent stress to create something, simply does not exist in the rest of the universe but as you know, on Earth it does.

So to put it simply, cats are acting out part of the strain, or threads you might say, of human cruelty and tends to reduce the level for the average human being where ever they are on the planet of cruelty that you might use yourself. 

This is a good thing to know so you will understand that when you see such a thing, if you happen to, they are acting out something you or other human beings do not have to act out. 

Always remember, there is a reason for everything.

Values

In these times one has to be clear about values, that which you hold dear. I recommend benevolent* values - meaning very simply that benevolence for you and yours, meaning family and close friends, and benevolence for all others is the way.

It won’t be an easy path but it’s the path I recommend. You will catch yourself many times thinking things that are dramatic and maybe even conflicting within yourself or even externally, arguing about little things, not things that are essential meaning food, shelter, best health possible.

So, I’m gonna to recommend that you keep it simple also. Watch as little news on television as possible. You’ll find that reading the news, in whatever is your language, might actually be better because the people that put out news in print are sometimes, not always, but sometimes less involved in making things dramatic when they’re not.

It is seductive for broadcasters of television or other video to make things dramatic so that people will watch. But these days those who publish words are sometimes less involved in the dramatic.

You’ll have to decide whether drama and excitement is more important than benevolence. Keep in mind that if benevolence does not include, not just as an ideal but as a practice, all other human beings on the planet that it will reduce the benevolence for all, including yourself.

This is not a punishment, it is simply that the more people that are experiencing benevolence the healthier everybody is. The less people that are experiencing benevolence the unhealthier in various ways everybody is.

It’s not complicated. Just a reminder to let you know that for life to go on it must go on as well as possible, meaning as benevolent as possible, for all human beings on Earth. Goodlife
