Thank you so much for the wonderful reading yesterday.  All of the things you told me about Jasper, Murray, Ms. Stachio, and Persnickity were so accurate.  I didn't tell my husband that I had set up a reading with you because I knew he would think it was hokey and a waste of money, but, when I shared the things our cats told you, he was stunned.  He was surprised at how accurate everything was.  Scott even ran to the store to buy Ms. Stachio a feather toy like you described and he said her eyes just light up when she saw it.  He even brought the kitty condo in from the garage for her.  I had no idea that Murray was carrying around the emotional trauma.  I ordered the flower essences you suggested and can't wait to get them to start helping him.  In talking with my husband last night, we thought of so many more things we would love to know.  I think we came up with enough things to fill an hour reading on each of them! I will let you know how the flower essences work and am sure I will be setting up another appointment in the future.    Thank you again for all of the insightful information.   Jennifer Beaverton, OR

Marla, I thought you might be interested in what I learned after I met with you at this year's Sonoma County Humane Society Halloween Costume Party.  I brought my Pomeranian, Pumpkin, to you for a reading. Most of what you said Pumpkin said did not ring a bell with me, but they did with my husband and, later, the one mystery was solved. You said she got in trouble the week before. I said I would not know because I was out of town.  My husband confirmed that he yelled at Pumpkin while she was attempting to dig under the fence to get into the compost pile.  She hastily backed out, knowing she had been caught in the act. You said you saw Pumpkin sitting on my husband's lap and watching football.  When I said he does not watch football you said maybe soccer.  I said he does not watch any sports.  Turns out that she does curl up in his lap and . . .  he calls HER his little "football" because he thinks she is a little larger in the middle than she ought to be and resembles a football! You asked about another pet at home that was small and white.  You asked if maybe we had a pet mouse.  I said no, we have two other white dogs but they are bigger than Pumpkin.  You said what you were seeing could fit in the palm of a person's hand.  I thought maybe a stuffed toy, but none of our stuffed toys are white.  Well, guess what, a couple of weeks later we discovered we have a mouse in the house!  An uninvited guest.  Well, maybe not invited by us anyway.  Maybe Pumpkin welcomed it in!  We have not spotted it yet, but odds are it is white!  Ha ha!  Pumpkin has a little mouse friend! I get such a kick out of telling our friends the story of Pumpkin's reading! Hugs, Nina - Santa Rosa, CA

Marla I wanted to send a thank you...you warned me of a problem in my girl Bella. Well, you nailed it. I had taken her to the vet before saying I knew of problems, but was always told she was ok. This time I insisted on xrays (she was limping). They were going to xray only the obvious site but i pushed for the area you warned me about. She has spondylosis there (plus lots of other stuff to make her seem crooked as you said). So thank you Marla. Also, did I ever tell you that when you warned me of Toby having pain in his stomach, he was in the hospital just days after that? I guess you should take out your highlighter and circle these.     Again, just wanted you to know someone is appreciating you today. ~Nicki~ Santa Rosa, CA

"Marla,   I enjoy reading your newsletter and often think about the day when I had a reading with you. I had just lost Mama Kitty a week earlier and the things you told me from her, healed my heart instantly. I will always feel a little sadness that I can't physically hold her but I know without a doubt she is still sitting next to me on the couch. She went home to heaven on 7-22-04 and now her friend Paisley follows in her footsteps. Thank you again for the goodness and healing you offer. You are truly blessed!" Barbara P. Rohnert Park, CA

Ella and I have been communicating a lot after our classes.  Yesterday I meditated and did our chakra exercise.  She was sitting on the table behind of me (“baking” her head by the lamp as we say).  I called her name 3x mentally and thought…Ella, can you come sit by me and I’d like to try some energy work on you?  I looked behind and saw her peering at me from under the lamp (!)  I turned back around and heard her coming and she sat down right next to me! She really seems to enjoy the energy work…she gets very quiet and it seems to soothe her. I also asked her to not meow at us so early in the morning (4 am and on) as I remind her that she can nap all day but mom has to work and is not getting enough rest.  She stopped after I asked her and I thank her every morning for letting me sleep!   This morning she watched me clean and fill up her new running water device. (I haven’t really seen her drink from it and was thinking I wasted my money.)  I told her she didn’t always need to go upstairs to drink water next to the sink as the machine will give her nice water too.  After breakfast I saw her drinking from it and I praised her a lot.  Communicating with your pet is not only fun but also brings me closer to Ella, which is the answer to my prayers!  THIS PET PSYCHIC STUFF IS JUST GREAT!

"Hi Marla, Just wanted you to know how much I enjoyed my Reiki session last week. You were right about the positive energy as I had the best day ever after I left...it was the first time since losing Alex that I felt whole again. It was definitely a big step towards helping me heal, thank you so much!" Sincerely, Chirleen Santa Rosa, CA

"Hi Marla, Just wanted to thank you for the distant Reiki session. I had not slept in 2 days prior and had been vomiting uncontrollably. Usually when that happens I have to go back to the hospital for IV's and medication. This time I thought I would go after the Reiki but during our session I fell asleep. After several hours when I woke up I was able to take in fluids and had no more vomiting. My physical pain was also lessened. I feel a little weak and worn out but that I'm improving and feel like I'm finally getting to the other side of this bought of whatever is going on in my body." Thanks Again! Karen Northern, CA

"Thanks for shedding light on Bodie's traumatic past. I will look into the bodywork and therapeutic options you suggested that may help relax and transform his anxiety. I'll also ask the universe for help in finding a loving; healing home that will allow his spirit to flourish. Please have people contact me if you feel they are a match." Joanna and Bodie Anaheim, CA

"It was such a pleasure meeting you today! Your horse is beautiful! Please do keep in touch...you are truly a gift to animals and mankind. Thank you so VERY MUCH for everything you have done for all of us. We really appreciate it! I can't thank you enough." Dawn Cerini and Joey (aka The General) Rohnert Park, CA

"Dear Marla, you may not remember me but I will never forget you. I sort of "fibbed" when I said I didn't need my medical service dog, I really still do. However, I am trying to live life in the face of fear and see the joy and beauty I've been missing. I am on disability but not forever!! I'm 39 and going to go back to school. When my dog passes, you offered to help me learn to communicate with her because we already do. Everything you said validated what I knew. Your gift of love is truly amazing and has really touched me." Love Tracey W. — Tempe, AZ

"I went to Marla for my dog Kenosha (age 13) who had taken a turn for the worse and quit eating. Marla talked to Kenosha and discovered the smell of bleach was the cause of her lack of appetite, which made sense since I had just finished cleaning the house thoroughly! The energy work she did on her really turned her around emotionally and physically. She started eating again, and wanting attention. It was great! She even did some work on me, which was part of the problem with Kenosha. Now I am sleeping through the night." Rebecca Thomas — Oakland, CA

"Thank you for all of your love, warmth and support through the bittersweet process of Sammer's passing. He passed away December 9, 2003, at 11:43AM. I so appreciate all that you did to enable the process to be conscious and in harmony, which you were able to facilitate for me. There was so much sweetness and tons of love to the closure, which I am most grateful for. Interesting enough, I did not feel a great release on his part at the moment of passing like I have felt on previous occasions. I felt that he was essentially already there. He was a very special being with so much love, presence and joy to share. Thank you for more deeply connecting us in that knowledge and experience." Suzanne Guyton — Santa Rosa, CA

I just wanted to send you a thank you note for the reading with Bailey, Dax, Eddie and Harry!  It was so helpful for me on so many levels.  Eddie had his teeth cleaning today, and all went very, very well.  As you indicated, his teeth weren't as bad as I expected -- only a thorough cleaning was required.  No extractions, no signs of serious disease.  (Eddie -- aka, my Main Man -- is lounging and purring peacefully on the desk next to me as I write this!  =)    As a result of our conversation I switched over to Wellness food and while there has been some initial adjustment, I think we're on track.  They've all taken well to the dry food (I purchased the 'light' formula), and we're experimenting with various canned mixes.  Interestingly, Dax (my gal with the 'eating disorder')...has not vomited once (knock on wood) since starting on Wellness (she used to vomit -on average-every other day).  I feed her small amounts of Wellness canned food frequently, and even let her clean up her siblings' leftovers, without issue!! (this would have caused massive vomiting with the previous diet).  She seems more satisfied after eating, not really wanting/needing more.  Though, I do make it available to her periodically, in small amounts and she enjoys it (sometimes, even leaving a few bites. (UNHEARD OF!!!)  I have never witnessed this behavior in Dax in all of her 12 years.  Never. I honestly believe their reaction(s) are due to the whole food nature of Wellness.  It's truly nourishing, with the right proteins, etc.--not just fillers. Their hunger is satisfied.   Thank you. Thank you!  They're all doing so well.  I don't know that I would have found this without your help. Please pass this information along to others. I was appalled when I researched the difference between the previous brand and Wellness!  I don't eat meat, but knowing that cats are carnivores, why in the world would I consciously choose to feed my kitties by-products of dead, diseased, or decayed animals???!?  I was horrified.   Also, Mr. Harry is even taking more kindly to being brushed now that we've all discussed the alternate option of a visit to the groomer!  ; )   And lastly, thank you for the tape of our session.  I received it today.  It was an unexpected surprise!   Blessings,  Love, and Yum-Yum! Pat, Bailey, Dax, Eddie and Harry Phoenix, AZ btw:  I participated in the 444 meditation in April, and have to tell you that I was absolutely overwhelmed each time I recited the invocation during those 4 minutes .  I was moved to tears.  I was quite beautiful.  Thank you for sharing your gift with the world, we definitely need you.

"Kim and I wanted to thank you for helping us get through the loss of Bailey. You were very comforting to both of us and it was great to hear how happy Bailey is. It reinforced that we made the right decision by letting him go. It was one of the most difficult decisions we've had to make. You really put our minds at ease and have helped us to start the healing process. You are wonderful and we couldn't have made it through such a difficult time without you and your kind words. We can't begin to express how grateful we are. You are such a special person. It was great to connect with our Mom too and to know that she was there to greet Bailey. Thanks again!" Kim & Kerri — Santa Rosa, CA

Marla is an incredibly gifted pet psychic, a life long friend of mine and I can speak first hand about her incredible gifts! Dora Suppes and Spike — Scottsdale, AZ

"Mike and I can't thank you enough for the benefits we feel since we have come to know you. We would like to be kept aware of when you are visiting the Valley, because we expect that we could always benefit from your services. Our feline children had such serenity about them afterward. Even the midnight crazies which only Purrlie experienced last night had a somewhat less frenetic quality. Everybody seems much more relaxed and happy since you were here." Thanks, Lolly — Phoenix AZ

"Hello Marla, I just wanted to thank you again for the call that you made to Angel on Saturday. It helped both Sandra and I to re-connect to all of the horses and to strengthen our relationships with them." Roxanne J. Rainwater — Healdsburg, CA

"Just wanted to let you know how I am doing since our session the other day. The following morning I started up walking with my friend again (we were walking 3 mornings/wk before I got injured). I put on 2 shoes, and walked just fine (albeit a little slower than normal). Then, when I got ready for my day, I decided that I was not going to wear that walking cast, and I think it was a very good decision!. I am still wrapping my ankle/calf with an ace bandage, but it is more for my own security than anything else. I have not been wearing the cast, and spent the day today at therapy lessons, leading horses in the sand arena. So all-in-all my leg is much better. But, best of all, my whole body feels better aligned and in balance ­ the result I was looking for from our session! Thanks for your graceful energy. I especially appreciated your getting me totally prepared for the session." Barbara Chastain — Healdsburg, CA

"I had my first reading with Marla the night after my dog passed away suddenly. It was such a comfort and she explained what I had been missing for the week previous to my dog's passing. She helped me not bring the wrong dog into the house too quickly and impulsively and she explained to a "T" the reason my other dog had been behaving rather erratically the week before my other dog passed away. She is incredible and she helped me with my cat who was peeing in ALL THE WRONG PLACES as well. It was SOOOOOOO nice to be able to connect with my dog immediately and let him know how much he was loved and missed. It helped my 2 daughters and I immensely to get thru our beginning grief. Marla you are REALLY good! Thanks again." Love, Sandy & Family  - Scottsdale, AZ

"When my daughter told me that she was giving me a reading with a pet psychic, I wasn't sure what to think. I must admit that I have been wondering about what was happening in some of my animal's lives so it seemed like a good idea. One of my dogs is paralyzed and I am always concerned about how she feels — when Marla spoke to her I found out that she was happy and content with her life and that I didn't need to worry. Marla filled me in on all sorts of things about my pets but one thing in particular made me laugh! I recently purchased a van/motor home for traveling and the talk in the house was whether or not we would get car sick in it. I had also been talking about taking my parrot, Bambino to my summer home in Montana now that I had the extra space. When Marla spoke to Bambino he told her that he would love to go on a trip with me but he was afraid he would get carsick!!!! He had been listening in to my conversations with my Grandson about this very subject! I loved my reading and can't wait to have another with Marla. She has such a sweet voice and wonderful easy way about her. Thank you for a great experience." Dorothy Suppes — Mesa, AZ

"We've been talking a lot about you to our friends and we've had a good time telling them some of the stories from our day together. Often our experience has been that they laugh at first and then become more intrigued as we tell them about your abilities. By the end of the conversation they often say, "maybe I should give her a call". Just today, Russ gave your number to a friend of his from his "men's group" where he'd talked about you. He said they all laughed and then he told them that, for whatever reason, he now feels like he has a better relationship with his cat. After that, some said they wanted your number." Edie (Flopsy, Mopsy, Kittentail and Boskoop) — Santa Rosa, CA

"I've wanted to let you know that ever since we talked about my cat, I do feel so much closer to her, no matter where I am. We recently traveled to the high Sierras, to a hot spring resort. It was so beautiful, crisp, and clear there. The 2nd night there, I thought I was dreaming at home, because I felt Elspeth pawing at me to wake-up, and let her out. After realizing where I was, I laid and thought about why that would happen so far from home. After telling my husband about it, we came to the mutual conclusion that Elspeth came to me in my dream, because she would have loved to have been there with us. It was just the kind of place, and climate she would enjoy. So when we go next year, I'm going to take some of her ashes, and scatter them in a high meadow - in the sun, surrounded by granite cliffs, wild flowers, and lots of lizzards! I was sooo amazed about the things you told me - and although I still get teary thinking about her, I know Elspeth is in a better place - and I will see her again one day." Marlilyn Santa Rosa, CA

"Marla, I just wanted to say "thank you" so much for the reading today. You are truly amazing! I can't wait to get the tape so that I can review it over and over. You mentioned that "older" lady, with the apron that loved to bake, you thought it was either my mother or grandmother, I had no idea who "Bertha" ( I think that is what you said) was. But when my husband came home I gave him the run down on our reading. When I mentioned the above, he immediately told me that "Bertha" was his "Grammy", his mom's mom, that was her nickname!!! Its just amazing your gift. Thank you again for all the help you give us mourning folks." Regards, Marsha Claremont, CA
