Animals are very smart. Sometimes it's creepy just how smart they can be. If your very calm and clear your mind you can communicate with your pet. They will put an image or thought into your mind. Have you ever had your pet want something, a toy, a treat, food or water, go outside, and you instantly knew what he wanted? He was telling you what he wanted. Animals communicate verbally and mentally. Humans lost this ability ages ago but we still have a remnant of this skill.
