iON | Autistic Children & Pets

Transcribed by Bert.

[March 12, 2016 Part 1 (39:00 mark)]

Caller: I want you to describe the type of communication that… that must be going on between autistic children and pets. I saw a picture of a nine-year-old girl in a bathtub with her cat - sitting in the bathtub being a comfort beast. Are these communicating just as clearly on a Non-Physical level as you and I communicate verbally - the child and the beast?

iON: Well, maybe better because what happens is, it’s dropped in translation. Because you’re so busy trying to figure out what to say, sometimes you don’t hear what you are being told. That’s why we can get ahead of it and start answering before you ask. It’s easier for us that way because then you can put it together. So actually, at their level of what you call, a base level… like a feeling place. Like, you get a feeling place that you don’t even have to think about. Like, when you have to go pee… you think about it, and you go: “Oh, yeah, I’ve got to pee”. Well, you communicate that… something told you to wake up because you’ve got to go pee, right?

Caller: Right!

iON: OK! So, that thing that woke you up is the same thing that communicates with a… ah… a “beast of burden”, and it doesn’t have to be an autistic person. They’re just not cluttered up with everything else. They do what they want to do - the way they want to do it, and we like that. We don’t have a problem with that, but that’s why they are at that level. Just like a cat, you can’t make a cat sit - you can’t make a cat lay - you can’t do any of that. You can’t do that with an autistic child, either. They’re on the same beam. “Beam me up, Scottie”!

Caller: So, the cat’s not sitting there telling the child: “OK, we’re going to kill these humans. I’m going to suffocate them in their sleep, and we’re going to take over and don’t listen to your parents.”

iON: No! No! No! The cat’s saying: “Let them do whatever they want, we’ll piss on the pillow when they’re asleep! Don’t worry about it.”
