Animal Communication: 10 Easy Ways to Connect With Your Cat
Updated 2024: We live in times of increased stress and our cats’ pick up on our moods. Anything we can do to improve our cat/human bond will help create a happier home for all concerned. This post is in memoriam of a friend who has joined her many animal companions across the veil.
Astrologer, animal communicator and healer extraordinaire Flash Silvermoon wrote this guest post. Animals and humans communicate via energy exchanges and cats being so sensitive could use extra help as they process stress. If we can tune into them, give them extra love and attention, we’ll all feel better.
Animal Communication: 10 Easy Ways to Connect With Your Cat
By Flash Silvermoon
We all know how to communicate one way or another but how do we communicate with animals? You do not need to be a Pet Psychic to be able to communicate with animals. If you can, expect to be able to share in that way with another specie AND this is the big one, one must not presume to be better or more intelligent or in any way see the animals as subordinate or less than you. That may sound way too simple but believe me it is the truth.
Many a pet owner ( that term is strange as one does not “own” another being), has spoken to me in frustration because they say, “I talk and talk to my pet and I never get anything back.” Of course therein lies the problem; they do all the talking. If one is to communicate with an animal, you must most to learn to Listen.
Your animals will be so thrilled when you start to listen to them that the messages will come tumbling out. Animal Communication can take many forms i.e. hearing their words inside your own head like thought transference. In this form the words may be so simple and off-handed that you may miss them unless you are really paying attention.
When I place my hands on an animal that I am treating they will show me images of what is going on with them or perhaps what they really like if nothing more pressing is involved. They actually speak to each other by sharing images.
If you are an empath, you may learn about their feelings through your own. For instance, if they are feeling scared, you may suddenly feel scared. If they are suffering from a bloated stomach likewise you may feel the disease what ever it may be. This is the least pleasant way but highly reliable.
You may experience all three modes of communication or just one or two but either way the key is listening. I experience all three ways of communicating with my own animals as well as those that I treat. You and your animal companions will have a much better relationship when you open those simple lines of communication and you can truly become best friends.
10 Easy Ways to Communicate With Your Animal Companions
1. Numbers 1,2 and 3 LISTEN. You must get used to clearing your head of thoughts and allow the energy and thoughts of your pet or other animal in to speak to you.
4. EXPECT to get a message or some communication and banish your fear that nothing will happen. They are communicating all the time, join the conversation.
5. RELAX, it may not happen the first time so just allow space and time and you will succeed.
6. Communication may come in many ways and on different levels. If you feel something different in your body as you start “tuning in”, you are feeling their feelings, be it fear or just a belly ache. You may hear words in your head and no you are not crazy, this will be thought transference, and you may see images too.
7. One of the best ways to have the experience of communicating with your pet or even a new animal you might be wanting to adopt is to put your hand on the back of the animal, close your eyes and allow them to share pictures with you as this is how they communicate with each other. You can ask them: how are you feeling or where did you come from?
8. Literally talking to them is not wrong and you can do this but should be after you have mastered Listening. My animal companions comprehend rather complex sentences and discussions and feel included when they are spoken to. Just make sure that listening happens more frequently.
9. Remember, these are your animal companions and never think of them as “just animals”. They are enlightened beings like we are. Like people, some are brighter and some are stubborn but they are not less than.
10. Positive reinforcement is The Way to make things happen with your animals as they want to please you. This is especially true for dogs and not as much for cats who have catitude and sometimes like to show detachment from your approval!
This should open the door for a much better relationship for you and your animal companions and create the space for you to truly become your Pet’s Best Friend.

Love it! Numbers 1-3 LISTEN. That’s worth it’s weight in gold and the animal truly being to open up when they know someone is listening. 😉

My human talks to me often. She also complains that humans don’t listen anymore. If they don’t listen to each other I guess they’re gonna have a hard time listening to us.

Wes can communicates the bestest with Mommy, she reads our minds and always knows…Daddy is a little more dense with us cats, but he always knows what the Hairy Slobbery sisters is thinking.

Thank you for the very interesting post. I’ve often wondered how you communicate with your cats. Yesterday, Abbi was very confused, at least that’s what I think she told me.

Bless all those that have lost a friend,we grieve along with you. We purr that you find comfort and peace and hold the little paw prints on your heart a little closer.
Thank you for the post Layla. It points out the most important part of communication between any species and that is listening!
Luvs to all our friends that have an empty spot in their hearts. Skeeter and Izzy >^..^<

Fantastic post; thanks for sharing! My kitty boys communicate with me differently & I, in turn, communicate with the two of them differently! Definitely enlightened beings!

My most wonderful and intelligent Kublai years ago taught me to listen by literally thinking words at me quite loudly until I heard them. Many cats later I’m still learning and remember his initial lesson (and the feline look, “You are so dense, woman. What took so long?”) Now with the Five, all related and who often think and act as one I just can’t get any peace some days. I talk to them in words and actions and they respond as felines.

That’s an interesting point about a familial bond between all five acting as a unit.

My sincere condolences to all who have lost their cat or cats.
I may not know all of you but I truly feel your losses.
Myself and my kitties are still in deep pain from our huge loss.
Layla Morgan Wilde
Connie Marie, sending big purrs to you. Thanks for sharing that readers are going through a rough time too.
Abby
Mom talks to us all the time and we listen and talk back too. Sometimes she gets it and sometimes she doesn’t. But she does try and she is in tune with us a lot.
Great article!!!
Brian
We are lucky, our Dad listens to us and that isn’t easy sometimes with seven of us.
Alana Grelyak & Crepes
I talk to my mom. Out loud. Loudly. But maybe she needs to listen a little closer to all of us, regardless. – Crepes

Great information for communicating with our fur babies! I do talk to them a lot but I have to remember to listen to them a lot, too!

I have always been able to communicate with my animal companions and it really is a reciprocal relationship if you care to make it so. My Mr. Jazz is aging and he and I have increased our emotional connection via touch and internal communication and I know he is comforted by the fact that I am listening to him.
Eric and Flynn
Thank you for this post. I think Flynn is communicating his sadness to me. Ivor and I are desperately sad at losing Eric, but when I pick Flynn up and cuddle him, the sadness is overwhelming. I think I am feeling the pain of both of us when this happens.

My human can connect with me by sharing her turkey burger with me!
Kathryn
Fantastic post by a very talented lady.
Yes, I talk to Cheddar. I stare at him, and then blink once. Then he watches my lips to see what I will say.
I make a tiny kissy sound, and he gets up and boops me, because he wants me to pet him or he wants food.
