RB'S QUOTE OF THE DAY: November 5, 2012: "...animals are masters at intuitive communication..."

"...animals are masters at intuitive communication, and they will receive every message sent to them. If you talk out loud to your animal, your message is received. If you think thoughts to or about your animal, your animal perceives those thoughts. Unfortunately, this also means that it’s impossible to keep anything secret from your animal. Think about how many times your cat has disappeared just as you decided to get the cat carrier! Even a pictured formed in your mind can be perceived by your animal, such as when your dog reacts with glee just as you think about going for a walk."
