Pet Psychic Catherine Ferguson

Catherine Ferguson is an "interspecies psychic reader, flower essence consultant and Reiki Master." Recently, I consulted her by phone for a psychic reading of my five-year-old Schnauzer mix, Atticus, whom I adopted a year ago from foster care -- he came from a home with so many animals that his family was forced to "downgrade."

The reading started off on an upbeat note when Ferguson confirmed that Atticus is a happy, fulfilled dog who is "leading a good life." However, Ferguson read that Atticus came from a sad past in which he may have been denied food and "repeatedly and hit with a newspaper by a man." These experiences left him emotionally scarred, unsure of whether or not he should feel "insulted." This made sense, as Atticus easily becomes timid and unsure of himself, and occasionally is aggressive toward strange men, which has convinced me that damaging experiences in the past likely involved men.

Ferguson then "spoke" to Atticus, promising him that he'd "always have enough food for [his] weight and activity level," and that "some humans just don't know how to treat animals." She assured Atticus that if he made me aware of his problems, I would know how to correct them.

Despite his insecurity around other dogs, he is content, albeit mostly with his owner and other friendly humans. He "knows what he likes," and that's my parents' sprawling backyard, where Ferguson asserted he feels most safe. He "likes space," she continued, alleging that trotting from one room to another before getting lost in greenery is what makes him happiest.

Ferguson offered some suggestions. She recommended I put Star of Bethlehem -- a flower essence -- into his water to make him "more receptive," and lessen his aggression toward other dogs. She also suggested that I speak to him aloud, reassuring him that I "want him to be happy, to have relationships with other dogs, and that [he] has no need to feel danger" from anyone or anything.

Atticus, like most dogs, exhibits behavior that can be adjusted, Ferguson claimed. And in my asking him to do so, she believes it can and will happen.
