This just in (2-08-2005) from Germany...
============================================
Dear Madames and Sirs,
I can talk to animals by telepathy which means, that they tell me about: special circumstances of life, psychological problems or physical diseases.
Therefore I need at the beginning of the test: a photograph of each animal - only the face is necessary - the names of the animal and all persons who live together with it.
To get in contact and to communicate with the animals I need about 20 minutes to half an hour for each of them. After one hour I need half an hour resting time to clear my mind. All together it is possible for me to talk to ten animals a day. I can tell you of nine of them what is special about each of them.
It is important for the test that the owners of the animals I am talking to can confirm the facts the animals tell me.
For example: if a dog has got arthrosis which is not treated by a doctor, so that it has got pain in a special region of the body I need the hint "Body Checkup" to ask the dog for physical problems. I can tell you then, where the dog has its problems and what kind they are. Of course, it is necessary that the owners have got x-rays or written diagnoses so that it is clear wether I am right.
