Do cats communicate telepathically?

[elminster20]

I think that cats, and other animals, can communicate with us in ways that may or may not be telepathic. When I had to take Sheba, my cat of 14 years, to the vet, to put her to sleep, the last thing I remember, before the medicine kicked in and she started to get sleepy, was her looking in to my eyes, really looking, and she told me that she was ready to go, and that she'd be okay. I don't like to think about it much, because I miss her everyday (I'd had her since I was 4, I don't remember a time when she wasn't around), but it made it..... Better somehow, to know that she wasn't angry.
I think cats have a sixth sense, in a way, they see parts of the world that we don't, or can't, and they can act on it.
I dunno, I've thought about it before, and will again, it's kind of neat to imagine what it would be like to be in a cat's head, even for a few minutes, but no matter what, it's fun trying to figure out what they're doing!

This is all so very interesting to me. I do believe that all animals can communicate in some form or another. I've also recently used a pet psychic and she told me that she receives pictures from the animals and this is how she communicates with them. She helped me learn more about Starr and his problems and now I understand him so much better. I think he's a much happier cat now.

I asked her about my RB Pepper and she said that I did the right thing by having him put to sleep and that he had something eating away at his insides. I've always believed that he had early stages of cancer. I was also wondering if he was visiting me because I can often feel his presence. She received the comment of "yellow walls" from Pepper and didn't know what this meant. I told her that I recently painted my condo walls with pale yellow and a brighter yellow in the bathrooms. She said that this was his way of telling her that he was here. I knew he was visiting me. Sometimes I think I see him out of the corner of my eye but when I turn there's nothing there.

I think it is human arrogance to think animals don't communicate... And I truly believe that most communication of all species takes place on many levels which include those most humans don't recognize. If it is telepathy or a combination of subtle cues, it certainly happens among the animals and humans I associate with. To me it seems to be a matter of being in harmony with an individual and then being open to what perceptions we need/want to share.... not unlike the communication that happens when I do a tarot or other reading for a client. (I also think this type of perception is what makes working with the "at risk" kids easier.)

Once again, thanks for all your inspiring comments.

The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced they are able to communicate this way. I also believe that they try to "send" us messages, too, when they sit there, just staring at us.
