Hello,
Yet another animal story. I hope I'm not boring you all to tears. I just want to share in the hopes that it encourages some of you to try Reiki on animals, or anything else that you wouldn't think to work with.
This is about a friends cat, who is aptly named Cat. He is a beautiful blue eyed siamese who is shall we say a little feisty? He doesn't like a lot of people, and will not hesitate to give out warning bites if you are encroaching on his space.
When we got to our friends house he asked if we had seen Cat - in fact he was worried because the cat had not been home for a while. Just as we were discussing this, guess who came home! Yep Cat made an appearance.
It wasn't 5 minutes later, and Cat jumped up on my lap and started purring. I softly asked him if he wanted Reiki and his purrs became a little bit stronger. Then the Reiki started to flow. Cat sat down on my lap and pushed his right shoulder into my right hand. He sat this way for a few minutes then pushed the back of his neck into my hand. Then a few minutes later he turned and pushed the top of his head into my left hand. Now this is the oddest part, after he got what he needed on the top of his head, he pulled back and sat with his face about a quarter of an inch away from my hand. And did he sit still then! Not moving, and keeping that little bit of distance.

After he got enough treatment on his face, he turned his body so that the neck and shoulder received more energy.
During this session I didn't feel a lot of heat in either hand, but the heat I felt emanating
from Cat's body was quite amazing! Especially on his shoulder and neck. Cat kept working these positions until he was done. It lasted about 10 minutes. Suddenly the heat seemed to dissipate, and shortly after that he jumped down and strolled away.
My friend watched this with interest, then went on to explain that Cat had been in a back yard brawl a few days ago (that explained the tuft of fur missing on his head, and the mark on his ear) . He was sure Cat got it pretty good since the cat would not go outside for the next few days.
So after all this, I got the feeling Cat was using the energy to help heal the remaining soreness from the fight. As well, I got a sense he was using it to work on the emotional impact.
It was quite an interesting experience!
With light and love,
