Ever Talked to Your Cat Via an Animal Communicator?
Dr. Doolittle isn’t the only one wishing he could talk to the animals. It’s natural for people to want to communicate with their cherished pets. Today, we have a guest writer, Bonnie Koenig, from Samammish, Washington. Recently, Bonnie won a writing contest, the prize for which was an hour-long teleparty with animal communicator Janet Roper. Bonnie invited four friends, and in an exclusive to The Cat’s Meow, reports on the teleparty:
Ever considered having an animal communicator talk to your pet? I entered a writing contest about a conversation I had with my cat on Talk 2 the Animals and won first place. This meant that I and five of my friends got to have an hour long teleparty with Janet Roper, the animal communicator behind Talk to the Animals.
Janet was very flexible with her times and we were able to set up a time that was good for everyone, despite being spread out through several US time zones. We were supplied with some things to think about for questions and offered some sample issues that get discussed with pets.
We each needed to provide a detailed description of our pet to enable Janet to get in touch with them. She describes that as being akin to knowing someone’s phone number before you can talk to them. There might be many Geminis but there is likely only one Gemini who is 4 years old who is a long hair brown tabby with big round green eyes.
Janet asked if any of us had any experience with animal communication before (we hadn’t) and then gave us a brief overview of what to expect. Animals are always communicating with us. It’s just that often we don’t understand what they’re trying to tell us.
After the intro, we each got about 8 minutes to ask a question or two of a pet. I was astounded at the wisdom introduced by each pet.
Each of the others in the party had pets that were clearly recognizable to me. My friend Elizabeth is the adoring mother to a dog that loves to be pampered and loved.
loves being held close to the chest and understands that she is a marvelous dog who is the center of the universe. I suspect she believes this because Liz believes this wholeheartedly.
One cat–Abbie (right)–had some issues with an upcoming cross-country move and Janet was able to offer some insight into the stress surrounding this and also suggested what to say to Abbie to reassure her as the move progressed.
Another cat–a tuxie named Bert–had issues that stemmed from a bad experience at the the vet. Janet provided insight into what he’s feeling, and suggested what to do to
help him overcome his issues: trying reiki and touch therapy.
Latte’s conversation with Lauren was a testament to the truth behind the cuteness of every cat blog. Latte (right) described himself exactly as I would have pictured him.
I didn’t see my own cat, Gemini (below, left), so clearly. In the conversation I wanted to better understand why she was so timid. But who was this little cat that we talked to? She was peaceful? And only as timid as she felt she should be?
She’s terrified of everything! And what is this about being the cat who supports my old kitty in her dying days? But as I reflected on it, I can see this in Gemini. Cheysuli is a very sensitive cat and I can see that she wouldn’t want the burden of having to support Georgia too far into her process of dying. Cheysuli gets quite distressed when Georgia has a bad day. Gemini can be there and be much more flexible about things.
Gemini was described as peaceful and sure of herself. As I watch her box the other cats around I realize that yes, she may be timid around people but she is very certain of herself with the other cats. She knows where she fits in.
At the end, we were all able to discuss anything that popped out for us. I was supplied with an audio link within two hours of the call in case I’d forgotten anything or wanted to listen again.
I got thank you’s from the participants and commentary on the food for thought that came up for all of us and our pets. Most of the pets decided to hang out with their humans after the teleparty, as if now the lines of communication were open and they didn’t want them to close.

Well, I’ll talk to Janet anytime she wants to communicate with a cat. I’ll tell her that I knead more Tiki and less Fancy Feast. I’ll also tell her that I don’t want any more teeth pulled!
She should have talked to me…
That’s very interesting. I’ve been interested in communicating with animals since I saw Sonya Fitzpatrick on Animal Planet, I’ve read books, and I have been able to communicate, although only for short conversations, with Sandy, and since Squeakers is now at the Bridge, I can communicate with her. But definitely not as well as a professional, they can do it over the phone which is amazing!
I’m so glad that Bonnie won the Talk2theAnimals TeleParty so that I could meet all the 2 leggeds and 4 leggeds! It was a great gathering, and the cats were happy to be heard.
If often happens when we humans take one small step towards communicating with our pets on a deeper level, the gates of communication start to open, resulting in a deeper relationship with our beloved pet.
Remember, U2CanTalk2theAnimals!
Harmony,
Janet
Meowm wishes she could do this! Since she didn’t get either I or my brother when we were kittens she wonders what our young years were like. Maybe she will check out the cost of doing this in the near future.
Meowmy actually took me to an Animal Communicator once. I supposedly told her that I didn’t like meowmy’s bedspread, which she found kinda funny as I always jumped up on meowmy’s bed. Also I supposedly told her that I didn’t like the countertop in the bathroom.
Dat’s interestin bout whether Gemini is timid or not. Beans saw Nina as timid cuz she’d hide a lot, but we see her as cautious. Gemini might be similarly cautious in new, threatenin, or unfamilyar situashuns.
Mommee haz spokn wif wunderfull animal communicator Marta Williams several timez about differnt kitteez in her life an, oh, wat she lernd wuz soooo enlightening! Reelie wuz! Shee lernd about da historees uv our seester Mamie (she in Heaven now) an great big brudder Jack Jack (oh, so sad, he in Heaven, too). Luv an kissez, Lilibet, Billi Bi, the Twinneez an Tallulah PS: We hope it ok dat we put her name in dis cuz she reely good! She gots books, too. Shee even told mommee dat her ex had bin cheetin on her (an mommee hadn’t even asked)! How bout dat!?
This is a very late comment. I did not become aware of this article on Animal Communication until a few days ago.
Although I do not deny the possibility of animal communication, if the animal and communicator are together. All of us read the sounds, postures, activities and so forth of our pets to understand quite a bit of what they are thinking, of their state of emotion, etc. Some people are more atuned to these communications methods and should be encouraged to continue their efforts.
I decry, however, communicators who claim to use paranormal abilities to communicate. The very idea of communication with a dead animal would be laughable if it did not bring monetary losses for those willing to believe this unscientific nonsense.. Just as spiritualists exploit those who wish to communicate with deceased loved ones, animal communicators who claim to to be psychic exploit animal lovers.
Let us all try to stick to science, not superstision.
I also saw Sonya Fitzpatrick on Animal Planet and have been very interested with Animal Communication. I think we all can develop it if only we have enough practice and a clear open mind to everything around us.
