Cats have a feminine energy so they are relaxed but watchful, graceful and loving.
Like all domestic animals they may choose to reincarnate into the same families and people often feel they have a deep connection with them. Cats look after their owners so, while most people think they are taking care of their felines, in fact the cat is protecting them and their home from entities and bad energies. Many of them are healers and offer you healing without you being aware of it. They are very psychic, much more so than most people realise.
They come from Orion and have a high degree of enlightenment. In the time of Golden Atlantis every home had a cat, which healed the family while protecting and maintaining the frequency in the household. When the energy of Atlantis started to devolve the first thing the Magi did to try to retrieve the situation was to send to Orion for more cats. However, even this was not enough to halt the downward slide.
