Using Flower Essences With Cats
Are you are trying to integrate a new cat into your feline family?
Do your cats fight with each other? Is your new cat grieving its lost
human companion who had to go into a nursing home? Flower remedies or
essences are helpful in many situations. Choosing the right essences is
facilitated by knowing what the animals are thinking and feeling. As an
Animal Communicator, I can gather this information and choose
appropriate remedies.
Flower remedies are the vibrational patterns of flowers in
liquid form. Each flower's unique energy pattern models specific
healthy emotional vibrations. When the bio-electrical systems of the
animal align with the model, not only may an animal's emotional state
and behaviors change, but sometimes even physical illnesses will be
helped to resolve.
One client had six cats and had rescued a seventh. When she
tried to integrate the new female, the cats fought and there was chaos.
A new cat will cause a shifting about of everyone's position in the
group dynamic. In this instance, the new cat was fairly dominant. She
was unwilling to come into the group at the bottom of the pecking
order. The currently dominant cat wasn't about to give up her position.
The other five cats had their various relationships and ranks, but now
all positions were fluctuating.
First, I explained to each feline what was going on and why the
person wanted to keep the new cat. I also gathered information about
how each cat felt about the new one and about their individual
willingness to cooperate. I talked to the new cat to get her
perspective as well. We all brainstormed for solutions that might help
smooth out the process
Then I chose flower essences. While continuing to use Rescue
Remedy, I added Walnut to help each cat cope with a major life change;
Quaking Grass, to help each cat's vibrations find harmony and
flexibility in the group energy; Chicory for the one cat who tended to
be jealous and manipulative; and Tiger Lily to reduce aggressive
behavior during the shift. In addition, I suggested that the client
mist the house twice a day with some Rescue Remedy diluted in water,
creating a calming atmosphere. The human agreed not to behave in ways
that showed favoritism towards the new cat.
The cats began to settle down quickly once they were on the
essences. Over a period of months, the new cat was integrated without
anyone getting hurt.
Flower essences start working immediately, yet work gradually
and gently. Sometimes behaviors change quickly, but the essences should
be given for several months to assure a sustained transformation.
Flower essences will not change someone's personality, although they
can take the edge off of an extreme behavior.
Another client had a male Abyssinian cat who told me he was "a
God" and who was beating up on the female cat in the family, a American
Short Hair, because he felt she didn't "worship" him appropriately. His
person was astonished. "Does he think my husband and I worship him?"
she asked. The Abyssinian answered, "Yes." He said that his people
thought he was beautiful; they fed, petted and admired him as much as
he wanted. The female cat was sweet, but not very self- confident,
especially as the male would swat at her each time she walked past him.
We set this goal: to boost the female's confidence while
lowering the male's aggressive tendencies. For the male I chose Vine,
for being domineering, inflexible, and a bully, combined with Beech,
for intolerance, and Tiger Lily, for aggression. For the female I chose
Larch, to build self-confidence, combined with Centaury, for allowing
oneself to be bullied. As a result of the essences, the male cat
stopped his aggressive behavior while the female no longer ran madly
past him. The situation resolved quickly because the right flower
essences were used. The male's beliefs about himself did not change;
his concern about the female cat and his behaviors towards her did.
Flower essences can be used with most species, including
mammals, reptiles, and birds. They are non-invasive and do not conflict
with prescribed medications. If you are having a behavioral or
emotional problem with an animal and you would like to try a holistic
approach, consider using flower essences. With the assistance of an
Animal Communicator, you are more likely to hit on just the right
combination, with the added benefit of understanding your animals'
perspectives. This helps achieve the desired results.
