Animals Are Conscious
LS-019-11-10-2023
Animals are generally considered to be sentient beings. Sentience refers to the capacity to have subjective experiences, sensations, and emotions. Many animals, including mammals, birds, and certain species of fish and invertebrates, have been observed to exhibit various forms of sentience. They can experience pleasure, pain, fear, joy, and other emotions.
As of November 2019, 32 countries have formally recognized non-human animal sentience. These are: Austria, Australia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Chile, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

Bonnie and I decided to share this with all members. Not only because of the important info but also to let all of our community know that we are having a computer problem as described in the video. We are trying to raise about 1500 USD to get us up and running again with a sufficient computer to run the live stream and our equipment.
Besides the "coin" tipping feature already here on Locals, Bonnie is working on a go-fund-me page. We will put a link here ASAP.
To all of our members and supporters...Thank You for helping us to continue our work.
Blessed Be,
John & Bonnie
Howdy Awakenvideo Locals Community members and supporters.
We had some technical difficulties a few streams back with our Mnt. Meru live stream.
This is Bonnie's video that she made for the live stream. I am uploading it so you can enjoy it without the audio problems which occurred during the live stream broadcast.
We hope you will enjoy it.
Blessed Be,
John & Bonnie
Howdy Supporters!

If the power shuts down our stream tonite we will redo Saturday or Sunday.
Just wanted every to know what's up.

Blessed Be Friends!
To all of our friends and supporters,
Our beloved dog Saint has passed on at the age of 16. We helped with his birth into this world with his 8 siblings. We raised all 9 pups with great love and found wonderful homes for each. We kept Saint and his brother Moomoo and brought them with us to Uruguay. Moomoo passed away unexpectedly several years ago. We are deeply saddened to lose Saint but relieved that he is no longer suffering and is with his brother in Spirit.
We apologize for any inconvenience to our Supporters but we will not be able to have our stream this Friday.
Many Blessings to all and we will be back Friday 06-26.

Hi! We are John and Bonnie Mitchell from awakenvideo.org. Every Friday night at 6pm EST, we do a Livestream on both Locals and Rumble platforms. We've been doing the Livestream for over 2 1/2 years now, with over 120 videos compiled. Our focus is on the awakening happening now as we shift into higher frequencies and remember our true selves as eternal, spiritual beings...
Unfortunately, our computer (that we do the Livestreams with) just died on us. We are currently using a loaner laptop from a good friend. We are raising enough money to buy a new computer that will run all the equipment we need to do the Livestreams.
If you'd like to help us out click this link to our Fund Raiser page and Thank You very much.
