Pet Psychic Reader Discovers Gift
Recently reported by Austin, Texas news statesman.com, author Andrea Ball talks about her friends encounter with a Pet Psychic Reader.
So I’m camping at Enchanted Rock with a bunch of rowdy Cub Scouts a few weekends ago when my friend Mary says something that brings our conversation to a halt.
“My pet psychic said … ” she starts.
“Wait, what?” I interrupt.
That’s right, she answers. Less than a year ago, Mary had adopted a boxer with a bum leg from a rescue group. He’d obviously been abused, and she wanted to learn more about him, so she asked a pet psychic to give her dog a reading. It was, she said, a great experience.
And that is how I learned about Elizabeth Martindale — psychic, medium, animal communicator.
Skeptical readers, I can hear your guffaws from across the city. I get it. It’s cool.
But this stuff is right up my alley. I’ve been to psychics. I’ve owned Ouija boards. And let me tell you, I should have listened more closely in 1989 when a ghost named Gloria told me that my parents’ car was on fire because, at that very moment, it actually was.
Martindale, 42, lives in North Austin. She was born in Arkansas, has a master’s degree in museum science and works a full-time job in state government that she’d rather we don’t mention here. She’s always been psychic, Martindale said.
“I would get these messages or information about people’s lives, and I thought everyone could do it,” she said.
Martingale communicated as a Psychic Medium with the dead, but upon request soon found out that she could also communicate with Pets through Psychic Readings.
Last week, Martindale agreed to come to my house to read my three dogs: Bessie, Boris and Pooh.
The second she walks into my small living room, they swarm around her. Bessie, the Boston terrier mix, jumps on her legs. Boris, the morbidly obese pug, spins in circles. Pooh, another terrier mix, trots up to say hi.
Martindale quickly taps into the fact that Boris and Bessie are wonderfully vapid animals. They have no dark past, harbor no miseries. We’ve had them since they were puppies, and they are typical goofy dogs.
“They just keep saying how much they love you,” she says, as Bessie climbs all over her, leaving white hair and dog slime in her wake.
Martindale doesn’t talk to them out loud. There’s no cooing or asking them questions. She just observes them and listens.
Then we zero in on Pooh, who is sleeping in the middle of the room.
Pooh, I tell her, was previously owned by a now-deceased elderly woman named Margaret. But we don’t know anything else about him. Despite his gentle nature, he can be very skittish and is nervous around men. Was he abused at some point?
Martindale stares at Pooh and then says, “I’m getting that he was owned by a family before and there were children, which he liked, but the father was very harsh with him.”
But then things got better.
“He definitely had a little old lady in his life,” Martindale says. “She was 80 or 83 and they would hang out in the recliner and watch ‘Wheel of Fortune.’ ”
She was also very petite and had white poofy hair, she says.
And she was right. Margaret weighed 85 pounds, had white poofy hair, loved her recliner and watched “Wheel of Fortune.” She was 89 when she died.
Did Martindale get all that just because I said she was owned by “an old lady?” A skeptic would say yes. But me, I’m happy to enjoy the mystery. And Martindale is happy to keep reading animals.
“They’re not all that different from humans at all,” she says. “I just like helping them.”
