Animal/pets and Ritual Magick

93!
Hi everybody, I hope this topic won't be considered "too mundane" etc. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with indoor pets and Ritual/ Ceremonial Magick that they would like to share. For example:
-
has anyone found it distracting having a cat in the room during a ritual? (In the case of a small apartment).
-
if someone has a caged pet like a hamster, bird, fish etc., has anyone noticed that the animals "freak out" or seem disturbed during a ritual in the same room or house? Has anyone noticed in the same circumstances that the animals seemed to be calmed or comforted ( like being present during the LRP?)
I'm thinking of getting a pet but I don't want it to break my concentration or cause unnecessary distress to the animal. It's probably a case by case kind of thing, but I wanted to see if any of you have experience in the matter.
Thanks, all!

The phrase "Canary in a Coal mine" became relevant for me during my magical career as my parrot who is an Amazon Red Head Male (About 50 years old) can detect what I just now call "high strangeness" that follows me everywhere. But when I'm around him, occasionally he will lock onto something that is just not there and will begin to fly or screech. Often, this is accompanied by strange activity like clockwork. Where as with my cat, they chase just about anything so they are not the most reliable detectors, so to speak. Just my experience.

I had this exact question myself
I have cats and a dog, generally speaking as soon as I start any kind of ritual they sit down and look disinterested... I know it's not like a cat to do that
I think the calm atmosphere generated rubs off on the animals actually although I haven't done any invocations or evocations yet so we'll have to wait and see how that goes.

I have a chihuahua. His name is Mercury - and he's quite Mercurial, too.
He frequently likes to come to me when I'm meditating or doing other types of spiritual practice - at such times he gets into my lap and sleeps. He seems specifically partial to my Pranayama practice. When I used to do it regularly, he'd always come over.
Now I don't know if this is because he is just a spoiled attention-seeking little ratty or if he likes the focused energy that gets generated during my practice. Now that you posted this question I'll pay some more attention to his behavior around my practice time and rituals etc.
