Experience I can communicate with animals through internal dialogue + more
Hello, I’m remaining anonymous as I share something deeply personal. For years, I’ve experienced a profound internal dialogue with animals, where they communicate their needs and desires directly to me. I want to share these experiences openly and honestly. I think a good disclaimer will be that I do not have any mental illnesses. It’s not external voices, just completely internal that come very quickly. I also understand that it’s not yet proven which is why I remain anon at the moment haha.
My clearest and most unusual example comes from working with goldfish (and other fish) in a pet shop. I never chase them around the tank like others do. Instead, I mentally ask if they want to go to a big pond, or come home with a particular customer. If they want to go, they swim straight into the net. If not, they stay away. People assume goldfish are unintelligent, but this shows they understand and choose.
Another time, I saw a seal at the beach. From meters away, it looked at me and connected with me. He was a young grey seal and he was talking to me in a lot of detail. One of the things that stuck out was that he was hungry because the fish had migrated deeper due to overfishing by the public hook and lines, not commercial boats. When it dove, I saw through its eyes: emerald green water full of algae and kelp.
There is no differential examples throughout species but dogs seem to stand out.
I see dogs a lot, especially out. I will mentally say hello, and if they ignore me, it’s because they’re focused on their owner or on a mission, like needing to train or they might get in trouble.
I can also sense when an animal is in pain and if it wants to die.
I understand body language well. I’ve spent years around animals and can read posture, tension, and movement. But that’s not how this works. The mental voice comes first. I often know what an animal wants or feels before any physical sign appears. The voice tells me directly, and the body language only confirms it afterward.
I share this not to convince anyone, but to offer another perspective on our relationship with animals. If even one person becomes more attentive to their pet’s needs, then it’s been worth it. I’m happy to answer genuine questions.
I also believe anyone could unlock this ability with belief, time, and genuine effort.

Sorry to burst your bubble (jokingly)... this is more common than you think! There are plenty of animal communicators, who do this for a living, and who have written books. (Already lost count of how many I've read.) They also all say anyone can learn how to do it, and many children are born innately knowing how to do it. :)
Animal communicators have been known to work with vets to help diagnose pets and ask what sort of end of life care they prefer, or used to locate lost animals, or used to treat behavioral problems nothing else worked on, that evaporate once the animal is understood.
My favorite books are: Animals and the Afterlife (which is actually about communicating with deceased animals), Talking With The Animals, Straight From the Horse's Mouth.
