They all said there’s <strong>no fleas/ allergies/ etc</strong> and gave her <strong>cortisone injections</strong> and <strong>cat pheromone products</strong> + kitty calming pills. Kitty was sleepy and kept on grooming. I stopped the calming tablets after 2 weeks as I did not see a difference and kitty was just so sleepy the whole time. And the <strong>grooming spread</strong>. I missed having an active nosey busybody kitty.”</p> <p>We agreed during a<strong> Skype consultation</strong> an <strong><a href="https://animalbridges.com/animal-communication/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">animal communication</a></strong> would help Chatul, the excessive grooming cat. After greeting each other, I started asking about her grooming.</p> <div id="attachment_2483" style="width: 160px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2483" class="wp-image-2483 size-thumbnail" src="https://animalbridges.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Chatual-tail-in-late-Sept-2015-edited-www-150x150.jpg" alt="Cat's tail almost bare due to excessive grooming." width="150" height="150" /><p id="caption-attachment-2483" class="wp-caption-text">Cat’s Tail Almost Bare</p></div> <p><strong>Elaine:</strong> … I understand you groom a lot. Please tell me about it.<br /> <strong>Chatul:</strong> I groom because <strong>I must be clean</strong>. I hate being dirty. I want to be clean all the time. It is <strong>what I must do</strong>. (I feel stress in my body from her.)<br /> <strong>Elaine:</strong> I understand you have a <strong>very beautiful coat</strong>. Are you trying to make it more beautiful? Why are you licking so much?<br /> <strong>Chatul:</strong> I want to be beautiful all the time. <strong>I hate when a hair is out of place</strong>. I want to be beautiful. Elna says I am beautiful. I want to keep hearing her say it. I want the attention. I love the attention. (Chatul is holding her breathe)<br /> <strong>Elaine:</strong> Chatul, please breathe with me. (She exhaled.) Nice exhale. I want you to keep breathing with me. This is very good. Do you feel better now?<br /> <strong>Chatul:</strong> Yes! I didn’t know I was holding my breath. Thank you for telling me. I will (sigh) keep breathing like this.<br /> <strong>Elaine:</strong> Good. Now I understand you have <strong>groomed all the hair away from your lower body parts.</strong> These areas don’t look so pretty now. They look like they may hurt or be very sore.<br /> <strong>Chatul:</strong> <strong>You are correct. I am licking for more reasons.</strong> I use the beauty as an excuse. <strong>I am worried. Very worried</strong>.<br /> <strong>Elaine:</strong> Okay. <strong>Let’s talk about your worries.</strong> I understand <strong>your sister had anal gland problems</strong>. Are you worried you will have them too?<br /> <strong>Chatul: Yes, yes, yes. I am very scared</strong>.<br /> <strong>Elaine: Chatul, each animal is different.</strong> Just like each person is different. Anal gland problem is not catchable. You can’t get anal gland problems by being by your sister. If she had a virus, maybe you would get it from her. Unless there is something wrong with how your anal glands are working, <strong>you will be okay. (sigh)</strong><br /> <strong>Chatul:</strong> <strong>Oh thank you.</strong> She was in a lot of pain and I don’t want any pain.</p> <p>The conversation continued about her sibling cat and how they play. Then I asked her if she had anything to tell Elna.</p> <p><strong>Chatul</strong>: Thank you for having Elaine talk to me. <strong>I really like her [Elna]</strong>. Also thank you for having her clear up some things for me. <strong>I (sigh) realize I won’t have anal problems. I will try to stop licking so much.</strong></p> <p>I recommended Elna use a blend of<strong> <a href="https://animalbridges.com/resources/#Bach" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bach Flower®</a></strong> for excessive grooming cat with Chatul on her treats or possibly on her bare spots.</p> <p><strong>About five weeks later</strong> Elna emailed, <strong>“Look at the difference!</strong> I am so happy and grateful for having been introduced to animal communication. Thanks again. I will absolutely still do reference for you!

Wadsworth, the cat, was licking and over-grooming himself so much that he had seven spots that were raw or bleeding. He had even pulled out the hair. They made many trips to the vet over several months and were using the prescribed medicine for cat excessive grooming. Claire Marie was frustrated and not sure what to do.</p> <div id="attachment_466" style="width: 160px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="https://animalbridges.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Wadsworth-Claire-Marie1-1.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-466" class="size-thumbnail wp-image-466" title="Wadsworth - Claire Marie" src="https://animalbridges.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Wadsworth-Claire-Marie1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-466" class="wp-caption-text">Wadsworth Stopped His Over Grooming</p></div> <p>As an<a title="Animal Communication Services" href="https://animalbridges.com/animal-communication/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> animal communicator</a>, I talked with Wadsworth and his personality really came through. I commented that he is very good looking and he replied, “Thanks. My looks are important to me.” Our animal communication continued and he explained why he was licking himself so much.</p> <p>E: I understand you lick yourself until you bleed. Why are you doing this?</p> <p>W: I am obsessed with being clean. I must, must, must be clean and look the best I can look.<br /> <span id="more-460"></span><br /> E: You said your looks were very important to you.</p> <p>W: Yes they are. So I clean myself to be sure I look my best. I just want to look great! Do you understand?</p> <p>E: Yes I understand. I also know when you lick until you bleed your hair or skin doesn’t look the best. Would you like help to help you being obsessive with your licking? I promise that you will still look great, probably even better!</p> <p>W: (Sigh) Okay. What would it take?</p> <p>I explained I would talk with Claire Marie and gave her a suggestion. Using the Animal Bridges’ <a href="https://animalbridges.com/about-animal-communication/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">integrated services</a>, I explained that animals have emotions just like people and act on these emotions. The<a title="Bach Flower Services" href="https://animalbridges.com/resources/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> Bach® Flower Essences</a> were created in the 1930s by Dr. Edward Bach to help rebalance emotions and mental states. When emotions are in balance, the body’s natural capacity to heal can occur. I explained the Bach® Flower Essences are not a substitute for veterinary care and I am not a vet.</p> <p>We agreed to try a Bach® Flower Essence blend made especially for Wadsworth. Within in a week, his raw spots were healing and he stopped the excessive grooming. In less than two weeks, five of the spots had hair growing back and two spots had scabs. Now over two months later, “Wadsworth is doing really well.”</p> <p>The post <a href="https://animalbridges.com/cats-over-grooming-helped-with-animal-communication/">Cat’s Over-Grooming Helped with Animal Communication</a> appeared first on <a href="https://animalbridges.com">Prescott, AZ Animal Communicator | Animal & People Bridges</a>.</p> <div class='yarpp yarpp-related yarpp-related-rss yarpp-template-list'> <!-- YARPP List --> <h3>Related posts:</h3><ol> <li><a href="https://animalbridges.com/excessive-grooming-cat-from-south-africa-is-helped/" rel="bookmark" title="Excessive Grooming Cat from South Africa was Helped">Excessive Grooming Cat from South Africa was Helped</a></li> <li><a href="https://animalbridges.com/cats-travel-in-car-peacefully-with-help-of-animal-communications/" rel="bookmark" title="Cats Travel in Car Peacefully with Help of Animal Communications">Cats Travel in Car Peacefully with Help of Animal Communications</a></li> <li><a href="https://animalbridges.com/cat-peeing-problem-resolved-with-animal-communication/" rel="bookmark" title="Cat Peeing Problem Resolved With Animal Communication">Cat Peeing Problem Resolved With Animal Communication</a></li> </ol> </div> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://animalbridges.com/cats-over-grooming-helped-with-animal-communication/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>4</slash:comments> <post-id xmlns="com-wordpress:feed-additions:1">460</post-id> </item> </channel> </rss>
