Have you thought of using the assitance of a holistic vet?
My holistic vet is also an empath and can and will do readings thru a picture very similiar to the pet psychic that a lot of people have been using here. BC_blondie contacted her (the vet) for one of her dogs and she helped a lot.
When I took Kylie to her it was b/c I wanted her to check her out and tell me any info she could. She started treating Kylie with accupressure and chiropractic and giving me some things to give her at home and in a nutshell her systems were starting to be effected by the fuzziness (she has had a couple of black-out type seizures I would also consider them stroke like b/c she is completely limp during them and has no control over her body functions and I was told by the pet psychic that during the episodes it is BLACK- quiet-peaceful- no pain but she is extremely drained after them) or shutting down if you will and they were just going one by one. After one treatment the vet said that her brain started feeling less fuzzy and more clear. (Due to the empath - she said as soon as Kylie came into the room her brain got fuzzy and it was hard and slow to think) Kylie has definately turned around since her treatments with the dr. but she in no way shape or form had any of the problems like Nakita especially size wise! For every 6 Nakitas there would be one of Kylie!
if you are interested in contacting this Vet via email let me know I can give you her website.
continued hugs and prayers.
