What if They Don’t Need Fixing?

Ute and Druid

One of the most profound lessons I've learned through my years as an animal communicator is that everything an animal does makes perfect sense to them, even when it makes no sense to us.

As humans, we’re conditioned to interpret rather than observe.

We call a dog aggressive, a cat stubborn, or an animal difficult. But what if we set those labels aside and simply observed what was happening?

The dog is barking. The cat is hissing. An animal is hiding in a corner.

These are observations, not interpretations. And behind each behavior is an animal with a unique inner world, instinctive drives, emotions, and needs.


My work is not about fixing animals. It is about understanding them.

When I communicate with an animal, I describe what I perceive through my intuitive senses, whether that involves emotions, thoughtforms, physical sensations, or energetic patterns. I am careful not to impose interpretations, and I invite the person to explore whether what I describe resonates.

Very often, something beautiful happens when an animal feels understood. Something softens, relaxes, and shifts in the relationship.

And sometimes, the animal reveals something about the human, too.

Our animals are deeply attuned to us. They respond to our emotional landscapes, our energy, and sometimes even the unresolved experiences we carry.

This is why I believe that true transformation is a partnership. It asks us to examine our own expectations rather than simply trying to change the animal.


And nowhere is this partnership more sacred than at the end of life.

When an animal approaches death, our own fears, grief, and unresolved pain may rise to the surface. We want to hold on. We want to protect them. We want to make the right decisions.

But perhaps one of the most loving questions we can ask ourselves is:

Can I step outside my own pain long enough to truly serve this animal and honor their individual journey?

In my work as a pet death doula, I help people explore these questions, prepare for the inevitable, and recognize that grief is not a disease to be cured. It expresses a profound bond that does not simply disappear when the physical body dies.


I often wonder what our animals would say if they could ask us a few questions.

Perhaps something like this:

Dear human, do you know how unconditionally I love you?

Do you know how pure my heart is?

Do you know that I don’t hold grudges?

And can you allow me to live according to my divine template, rather than trying to fit me into a human structure that was never meant for me?

I believe our animals invite us into something far greater than ownership or control.

They invite us into a Divine partnership.

One in which we learn to listen more deeply, love more freely, and honor the extraordinary beings who share their lives with us.
