Empaths are people and animals who are hard-wired to perceive and feel the thoughts, feelings, and emotions of others. Everyone has empathic abilities, some more than others.

Animals are emotional empaths. What does that mean? Animals are highly tuned into human emotions and feelings. They know and understand how you feel, because they feel how you feel.

Animals as emotional empaths are so sensitive that they can feel your stressful emotions in their body – they actually physically experience it. If you are feeling really stressed out, your pet cannot help but feel it. They may then exhibit stressed out behavior. When you notice your pet is acting stressed out, it might be because you are too. Animals sense your stress then act like a mirror to your Soul.
