Be carefull what you say around your cat or dog. They could be gossiping behind your back.
According to animal psychic Penelope Smith, domesticated animals often become neurotic when they're cooped up so they take out their frustations by telepathically dishing the dirt.
Smith claims she once tuned in to an entire stable of horses that were telepathically griping about each other and making catty comments about their owner.
Wild animals, it seems, are much mellower and don't usually feel the need to gossip about each other.
Smith discusses how to communicate with animals in her book Animal Talk (Beyond Words Publishing).
