The cat awakened your love. You knew this was to happen and you chose the means. Now, in so doing, you also gave affection to the animal and awakened within it characteristics it did not have earlier. In other words, you stretched the extensions of its own awareness and consciousness. You brought it up, to put it very simply. The consciousness of the cat grew and developed. You taught it communication. Now I am not speaking in words of physical communication but you opened up its awareness. Now though it seems to you perhaps at this point tragic, the facts are that the real tragedy would have occurred had the cat lived, in your terms, and had you curled up in it, in your house on the corner, and turned your love inward to the animal rather than outward, for there are people who need it.

When you think in terms, for example, of remarriage or when your children urge it upon you, then you think in terms of yourself. You do not think in terms of those who need love and affection and who are more lonely than yourself, lacking children, and who are looking for not only affection but the simple courtesy that another individual can show by recognizing their existence. You were not able to translate or transform that love outward. At the same time you extended the consciousness of the animal, it became more than it was. Its consciousness was ready to leave and adapt another form.

I did not say that you need to remarry, I said there were others who needed your love. Now you take it from there.

There is nothing wrong and much good in loving animals. However, when you love any one thing so strongly that it begins to exclude others then you need to think.

Now, do not cheapen my message with jokes of remarriage. There are people who agonize for companionship and who have not known what love is. Now, when you let it be known telepathically that your awareness of sensitivity and love has been reawakened, others can perceive it and come to it as a light. It will find its own way and draw others who need it.
