A month ago my cat K´anchay became very sick from one day to another and the situation looked pretty bad. A few days of daily vet visits and strong medicines made me realize somewhere deep in my stomach area, that my cat wouldn´t be able to survive this terrible illness which had taken him over.
I never imagined that I would need to take the choice for an animal´s life. In gratitude for my life in the countryside and becoming even more very connected to nature, I also learned over the last few years to embrace the circle of life and death within and around us.
My cat K´anchay had accompanied me for the last 2 years in a tremendously loving way, but also with a very persisting attitude to learn to connect to the here and now, to everything that the present moment held for me. And with the challenging situation I was asked to put into practice his teachings. In the present moment I knew that my cat was suffering, that the chances for his recovery were close to zero.
Being a soul level animal communicator and working with so many clients and their animals, I know that animals chose when and how they leave their physical body, who is going to be present and who not. We have a soul contract – just like we do between humans.

K´anchay chose me to learn important life lessons (just like all animals do with all humans!), so that my soul can evolve and I can become a better human being. The soul contract between both of us had been completed and furthermore, K´anchay chose to leave his physical body in that way – as part of the soul lesson, for me to stay connected in the present moment – and to show me something that I had already heard of, but never seen or experienced …
At the vet´s I held him in my arms and closed my eyes to say good bye. I asked for both of us to be bathed in divine light for the last moments together and instants later, I saw the sky opening. Tremendous, golden, radiant light not only bathed us but also created something in front of my inner eye that I feel to call a bridge of light. On the other side, many animals waited, ready to welcome K´anchay and in front of all of them sat Inti, my dog who had been shot a day after K´anchay and his brothers had been born.
On their side was no sadness, there was no suffering or pain. I felt lightness, joy and happiness and my cat crossed over faster than I had imagined. Our ego wants many words, long good byes, but when I understood what had been happening, he was already gone. My mind couldn´t believe it, but the feeling of peace gave me confirmation of what had just occurred.
Then K´anchay was euthanized, but I knew, that his soul wasn´t with us anymore, just his body. I cried – but not in pain, but in gratitude for this realization and that the animals had given me so much beautiful insight. Thank you.
