One Feline’s Amazing Journey From Darkness to Light

The black leopard, Diabolo, previously lived in a European zoo where he had been abused. This trauma had turned him into an extremely aggressive cat who trusted no human. His distrust and hatred for humans was evident by his growling and snarling at anyone who approached his cage, which he never left.

He was named Diabolo, or Devil, due to his vicious nature.  His cage was now in the Jukani Predator Park which in 2005 was set up as a refuge for big cats who had previously lived in zoos or experienced abuse in their lives.

Conservationists Jurg Olsen and his wife Karen run the South African sanctuary that lions, cheetahs, leopards, panthers, servals and other animals now call home. Jurg is an ex policeman and shares a close connection with the big cats that he cares for. He is able to play with, walk among, pet, and interact, directly with many of the animals. That is,except for one, Diabolo. Diabolo once bit Jurg and put him in the hospital for a week with that one bite.

After a period of about 6 months of no progress with Diabolo, an outside expert, who had no knowledge of his past or present condition, was called upon to visit the sanctuary. Anna Breytenbach, a self styled inter-species communicator, has the unique ability of being able to transmit detailed messages to animals.

She speaks to them visually, through pictures, and silently with thoughts. Anna obtains responses from them that are often extremely detailed and personally revealing. This video clip shows her transform the deadly snarling Diabolo into a calm and tranquil cat affectionately re-named Spirit.

When Anna approached the leopard’s cage he didn’t snarl and growl like always. Instead, a wave of peace and calm washed over him. Anna sat right outside his cage and looked in at him. The two connected and telepathically spoke to one another. Anna said that he was overwhelmed by his new surroundings, disliked humans for what they had done to him, and although he was immensely powerful and wise, he felt under appreciated.

Specifically, he disliked his name and the darkness it inferred. He was also very concerned about 2 young cubs that used to be next to his cage at the zoo in Europe, and it was this fact that convinced everyone that Anna must truly be communicating with the leopard. There was no other way she could possibly have known about the two cubs, even they had forgotten; however, Diabolo had not.

In less than 24 hours Diabolo’s entire world, demeanor, and life changed for the better, so much so that he earned a new name; Spirit. See what else transpired that fateful day, when Anna met Spirit, and get ready for the unexpected flood of emotions that will wash over you when you hear this incredible story.
