The hard reality of having a cat in your life is knowing that one day – they won’t be there anymore. Time spent with our bonded feline is beyond words, and the loss of them is heartbreaking. I know, first hand, the difficulty of seeing beyond the pain.
Even in death, we have a responsibility to our cats to ensure they have crossed over. Cats who are a familiar to their owners are less likely to cross over, out of protection. They often stay in the “in-between,” to watch over them, and offer whatever assistance they can during the grieving process. The issue, however, is they don’t find always find their way back to Spirit.
In recent weeks, quite a few feline spirits have come to me, looking for assistance to cross over. In my conversation with them, it’s becoming clear they’re hanging back to watch over their owners and make contact with them in small, subtle ways. Once the initial moment of grief begins, the healing process comes in waves. Feeling the cat’s continual presence can often lead to more of an open wound for the owner. Ultimately, it’s best for both if the kitty moves on.
Steps to Help Your Feline Cross Over
- Allow yourself to relax in a quiet space, and become grounded. Take a few deep breaths, and exhale slowly.
- As hard as it may be, think about your departed kitty. Put them at the forefront of your mind, and feel the love in your heart for them.
- Either out loud or to yourself - address your feline and tell them how much you love them. Share your favorite moments with them, or talk about one of their personality traits that you loved. Thank them for the time you two shared, and remind them that you'll always love and appreciate the time together.
- Then say, "If your spirit is still here with me, I ask that you please move on and take the next step in crossing over. For me to heal, I need to make sure you are where you are supposed to be. Thank you for always loving me and taking care of me - even in passing. I love you, always, but you are free to go."
- Take another deep breath and exhale. Repeat this as many times as you feel necessary to calm yourself.
