My Rat ... possibly a familiar ...

[RubyRose]

I know, I've asked a similar question before ... but this is not really a question anymore ... more of a confirmation .... okay ... I happened to have my rat out of her cage last night, close on midnight, thus deciding to let her run around on my chest of drawers (which is where my altar is placed) and unlike the previous times when I put her on a different counter top, where she tended to hid and seek comfort near boxes and such, it seemed my little rat friend (Del) was having the absolute time of her life amongst my Magickal tools, upon my newly apointed altar space ... so what I'm wondering is ... could that mean that she's relating to the magickal energy or something akin to that ... ? Could she be a familiar in that respect?

I'll say the same thing I did last time.

Most. animals. like. magical. stuff. It's. like. a. magnet.

A familiar will share energy in ritual, and will be an animal you're very "familiar" with - meaning you will know his thoughts and his yours, meaning you can call him wherever he is, meaning you might see the world from his eyes and he from yours, meaning he will warn you of danger as he is more sensitive to energies, etc.

Sorry to be a party pooper but I've seen a lot of animals intrigued by magical stuff. All my pets are. But only one is my familiar. </imho>
