Have you ever wondered what happens when our beloved pets cross over to the other side? As a medium, I can tell you they definitely keep their playful personalities—and sometimes their mischievous ways too!
Just last week during a reading, I connected with a woman’s departed golden retriever who made his presence known by showing me how he used to steal socks from the laundry basket. His mom burst out laughing, confirming he had an entire collection hidden under her bed that she only discovered after his passing. Even in spirit, he was proud of his sock-collecting achievements!
And it’s not just dogs! I’ve had cats show me their dramatic disdain for furniture arrangements they didn’t approve of and birds remind their humans of the songs they used to chirp every morning. No matter their species, our spirit pets bring a unique joy that’s impossible to forget.
The Universal Language of Love
What amazes me most about connecting with pets in spirit is how clearly they communicate their ongoing devotion. They don’t need words—they share pure emotions and memories that their humans instantly recognize. Sometimes, they even act as “bridges,” helping me connect with other family members who have crossed over.
One remarkable moment was when a client’s horse came through with the memory of a specific trail they used to ride together. This memory led us to her late grandmother, who had always encouraged her to pursue riding. Pets, never stop supporting us—even from the other side.
Signs Your Pet is Visiting
Your spirit pets often leave playful signs to let you know they’re still around:
- Finding their favorite toy in unexpected places
- Hearing the phantom jingling of their collar
- Feeling them jump on your bed at night
- Catching a glimpse of them out of the corner of your eye
- Even noticing odd behaviors in your other pets, like staring into space or barking at nothing
It’s their way of saying, “I’m still here with you.”
The Healing Power of Pet Messages
While these connections can bring tears, they more often bring smiles and laughter as pets remind us of their silly antics and unconditional love. They want us to remember them with joy, not sadness.
I recently connected a client with her cat who showed me how he used to knock everything off her desk while she worked—but only during important Zoom calls. She laughed through happy tears, saying those interruptions were now her favorite memories.
Another client told me how she’d always hear her late dachshund’s signature “snort” when she made popcorn, reminding her of his habit of begging for a taste. These moments, though bittersweet, bring a sense of comfort and connection.
Why Spirit Pets Stay Close
Even in spirit, our pets often take on the role of guardians. They send us love when we need it, remind us of our happiest times together, and sometimes even guide new pets into our lives. Many clients have shared how they felt their spirit pet “choose” their next companion—a phenomenon I see time and again.
Playful Souls Forever
Our pets’ spirits remain as playful and loving as ever. So next time you hear a faint bark, see a toy where it doesn’t belong, or feel a warm, familiar presence by your side, take it as a sign—your spirit pet is saying hello.
Our bond with our pets transcends time and space, reminding us that love, once shared, never truly fades. It just evolves—sometimes with a wagging tail or a mischievous pawprint left in spirit.
