Connecting to the Divine in Felines - Interspecies Spiritual Practice

🐾 Connecting to the Divine in Felines – Interspecies Spiritual Practice 🐾

Today’s spiritual practice takes us into the mystical and meaningful world of **cats**, guided by Margaret Hall, one of our aspiring Animal Chaplains.

Margaret has been a veterinary nurse at a feline-only practice since 2012 and previously served as the Health Care Coordinator for a rescue society. A registered nurse who chose to devote her life to cats—her true love—Margaret now shares her home with her husband Jeff and *18 rescue cats* (yes, 18!), many of whom are diabetic and came from shelters across the U.S., including Massachusetts, New York, Georgia, and Hawaii.

In honor of **National Cat Lady Day**, we celebrate Margaret’s deep compassion and tireless dedication to feline well-being. When she isn’t caring for her beloved clowder, Margaret enjoys coastal walks, photographing her cats, and reading (mostly about—you guessed it—cats!).

As you watch this video, we invite you to engage in **Visio Divina**, or *Divine Seeing*. This sacred practice encourages you to look beyond the surface—breathe deeply, gaze with intention, and open your heart to the Divine presence in our feline companions.

🙏🐱 Thank you, Margaret, for helping us all see the sacred in the soft purrs, steady gazes, and quiet wisdom of cats.
