Messy bedcovers are a part of being an interspecies parent. My daughter Gracie monitors my energy very closely and when she sees that I need a break she makes me lie down for 5 minutes and she lays on top of me and purrs. Purrs heal - emotionally, physically and energetically. Please listen to your animal companions when they try to convince you to rest (even if it means tiny cat naps (or dog naps, bunny naps etc) or a few extra minutes of sunshine outside. They are not only asking for themselves-they can see & feel our energy and are also trying to help us receive what we need to stay healthy, especially during times of extra stress, our own as well as collective anxiety.✨
![]() Even though I often talk about the magical from the stars loving energy of my kids, there is also a very grounded practical side to being an interspecies parent. The side that takes care of all their physical needs. They are these amazing beautiful souls who chose to incarnate in little cat bodies. Yesterday morning Merlin needed me to help him get cleaned up after the litter box - there was a little mess on his fur (he and his sister have a lot of fur.) I gently cleaned his fur with a damp washcloth. (Gracie lets me use a tiny trimmer if she has a piece of dirty or matted fur, but Merlin doesn’t like the sound of a trimmer so I just have to wash him.) After he got his catnip reward for letting me clean him I saw his floofy clean fur shining in the sunlight streaming through the skylight and had such a feeling of joy, of satisfaction at having taken care of his needs. Our animal companions depend on us to care for them in these ways, to help them stay healthy and clean and safe. And it gives me so much happiness to do it. I feel honored that they always trust me to clip their nails and to groom them gently and anything else they need. I love it when I have just washed their drinking fountain and I see them enjoying the fresh water. For that matter it also makes me really happy to have a clean birdbath ready for the wild birds outside. It’s hard to keep it spotless with so much use -but I do my best- and when I see them in it -delighting in their baths, it always makes me smile. I’m not the most enthusiastic person about doing housework/chores- but when I’m doing it to benefit my kids & other animals it feels less like a chore and more like a privilege. Animals (wild and our family member ones) do so much for us emotionally and energetically-it feels so good to be able to provide these physical comforts for them.❤️ (photo is of a chickadee on our feeder) On this Mother’s Day I am as always beyond grateful for my own amazing sweet mom and for my kids who made me a mom. Juneau and Jarvis who are in spirit now. Merlin and Gracie Belle who are with me now in this physical realm and who make me feel like every single day is Mother’s Day with the unconditional love and purrs they offer me every day. Their love makes me feel like I’m walking on a cloud.They are truly gifts from the stars.
✨❤️✨ I also think about other moms-the biological mom of my kids. I hope their biological mom -wherever she is- knows how beloved her babies are. I hope she knows that Merlin & Gracie and their siblings were cared for by a loving foster mom after they were separated. And that for over 5 years now they have been (& always will be) the apple of their human parents’ eyes. That we adore them beyond anything and are grateful for them every day. 🌟 As interspecies parents all of our kids are adopted. They had a biological mom and we likely didn’t meet or know her. In sessions sometimes animal moms show up and they are still watching over them from spirit (if they crossed over.) They are happy when they see their babies growing up loved. Today I want to send extra love to them, and gratitude. On behalf of all of us parents who have been graced with the privilege and honor of caring for an animal kid/companion and had our lives completely changed by this love and connection. This love that transcends lifetimes. This love that is soul deep. So grateful for everyone that came to the first ever Starseed Animal Circle on Sunday! It was my first time doing something like this so I didn’t really know what to expect either! About 3-4 days before - the animal companions (& their guides) of those attending started giving me information they wanted me to share, and they also dictated the guided meditations to me. Everything was channeled in advance.✨🐳
The animal companions & guides even told me (with not much notice) that they wanted me to facilitate them offering a 3rd eye activation for their humans and gave me specific instructions including using (biodegradable environmentally safe) glitter. ✨ I loved the experience! I’m thankful for how open everyone was & it was wonderful to sit in a circle with interspecies parents who love their starseed animal companions (on earth and in spirit) so much that they wanted to spend time deepening the connection and learning about their companions’ sensitive & multidimensional energies. I definitely am planning to do more, not sure yet when the next one will be. Thanks to everyone who was there! Next time I will try to get a group shot. It was so magical hearing the experiences everyone had during the meditations.✨ |
