After a Candle Ceremony last night and my cats [View all]

First time since they took over the house.

Both are 2ish, and are feral born. Dixie, who is the more human orientated watched from a distance.
Shaw, the more reserved one, got very interested and sniffed at the candle, since last night she has been very affectionate and rubbing and purring.
Has anyone else noticed cat/dog changes in behavior, after a. Ceremony?
