Have you ever taken your pet to a pet psychic?

Asked by jsc3791 (1988points) September 20th, 2011

I’ve heard some fun stories about this, so I thought I’d ask you guys.

I am considering trying it out (just for fun, of course).

Have any of you ever taken your pet to a psychic? What sort of things did they tell you? Did you believe what they said was true?

Gosh, no. I would have a really hard time taking my pet to a psychic and not laughing hysterically every time the person said something.
And that would be really rude. So I probably shouldn’t do it.

No I can already read my dogs mind and he’s not always as sweet as he appears. When he knocks his empty bowl about and snorts at me, I can clearly hear the following words. “Hey slave, get over here and fill these up! They aren’t going to fill themselves!”
I cleaned that up. He really can be quite nasty.
Ok, I imagine that is what he is saying. Pretty much what I would pay someone else to do. Save your money. There is no Doctor Dolittle.

Good Lord, no.

We did have a client who “lost” her dog, and so called her pet psychic (she apparently had her on speed dial). The psychic told her her dog was “near”. Turns out, the dog was in the fenced-in back yard. Coo-coo-nut.

I’d rather not validate such a silly profession (even if it were just for my own amusement) by paying them.

MIlo here; And waste my trust fund? Don’t be ridiculous. Gail’s thought processes are completely transparent and ultimately not very interesting.

As long as she obeys my ** ten commandments, we purr along happily.

**Fresh expensive food
**Fresh pristine water from the pristine fjords of pristine Norway
**Appropriate climate-controls
** Cashmere-lined sleeping accommodations
**Endless supply of mice, voles, chipmunks, in various weight classes
**Ample time for naps
**Sprinting opportunities at 3:00 AM.
**Daily (or hourly if needed) housekeeping services.
**All royalties automatically placed in my savings account
**Understanding that I am the only Deity here.

No, that’s silly.

Any person who’s owned by a pet (^^see Milo) is capable of communication. Pyschics only make shit up to take advantage of the gullible and/or desperate.

I see Nef and Blueroses have been reading my mind again….

Damn psychics!

I guess I just thought it would be fun, like having your tarot cards read or something. Nothing to take seriously. They have a pet psychic booth at a fundraiser for animal charities coming up and I thought I might try it. The money goes to charity. I don’t see it as being “gullible” or “desperate” if it’s for a good cause and you’re having fun.

Sad that no one has any funny stories!

@jsc3791: Milo here; I thought I was pretty funny. (I write all of Gail’s good lines.)

Milo, you were HIGH-larious! My personal favorite was ”**Sprinting opportunities at 3:00 AM.”

Much lurve.
