Ruth Hatten - Sahaja Animal Healing

Holistic Animal Care Mentor. Naturopathy, Nutrition, Plant Medicine, Energy & Spirituality. When I was 11, I made the decision to stop eating my friends.

As anyone who knows me will tell you, my number one passion in life is animals. If I could surround myself with animals and just be with them, forsaking all others (well, most others - I'd keep a handful of my closest people nearby) I would be like a pig in mud.

I have loved animals since I was a little girl. Growing up with cats and dogs helped to instill in me a great love for our furry frie

nds. I became vegetarian. 16 years later, I took the big step of going 100% plant based, forsaking all animal products. As an animal lover, it seems nonsensical to eat them. How can I love one and eat another?

Through the journey that is my present life, I have moulded an existence that capitilises on skills and experiences I have gathered along the way to help animals.

* I use my knowledge of plant-based living to mentor others in their exploration of this lifestyle. This is done through my business .

* I use my qualifications as a lawyer and experience in practising animal law to assist with legislative change, policy improvements and education. This is done through my collaboration with a number of organisations including Voiceless, The Animal Law Institute, the Centre for Compassionate Conservation and the Australian Animal Protection Law Journal. I am often called on to speak at animal rights rallies and events. You can find out more at https://www.ruthhatten.com/advocacy and https://www.ruthhatten.com/news.

* I use my qualifications as an animal nutritionist and massage therapist to directly assist cats and dogs with natural remedies for disease prevention and achieving optimum health. This is done through my business Sahaja Animal Healing.

Overall, it's all about the animals for me. To continue the fight for animals takes dedication, compassion and an overall abundance of love for each and every one of them. I couldn't do this without a solid support network of friends, family and most of all my cherished darlings whom I share every day with - cats Lilly, Max, Elvy and rescue greyhound, Louie.

If you're drawn to working with me, or even if you just want to chat, I'd love to hear from you. Always for the Animals,
Ruth xx

Before you ditch your card on 11.11, here’s what you need to know. This digital payment boycott might feel like resistance — but it’s small, purpose-led businesses like mine that feel the real hit.

I rely on card payments and online sales to run my business — to fund the free education, natural pet care support, and resources I share. Basically, all the work I do to help thousands of animals live healthier, happier lives.
My business only exists because I can sustain myself while doing it.

💳 It’s not about fear. It’s about facts. 🛍️ Protest if you must — but do it intentionally. ❤️ Support the kind of businesses you want to see more of.

✊ Tag a friend who’s considering the 11.11 boycott. Share this if you believe in supporting ethical, animal-first small businesses.

In this clip from my conversation with illustrator‑author Jessica Roux, we dive into the story behind her hedgehog card: the red ribbon, the three golden pentacles, the grapes on the tree — and the myth of a tiny guardian gathering provisions for its family.

It’s creative myth‑making, yes (love it!) — but also an invitation to step into a world of symbol, folklore, and animal‑spirit wisdom.

✨ Tune into the full episode to uncover how animals, plants and folklore weave together into art, intuition and ritual — and how this little hedgehog invites you to show up with devotion, work with what you have, and take quiet pride in the gifts only you can bring to the world 🦔

Anger is powerful — and valid. But when it comes to animal law, policy change, and animal protection?
That anger needs to be paired with strategy.
With clarity. With the long game in mind.

This is one of the most powerful lessons from my conversation with Emma Hurst MP from the Animal Justice Party — especially for people who feel everything deeply (and want to do more than rage into the void).

Two of the most cruel animal experiments were still legal - until now.

In NSW, rats were dropped into water to the point of near-drowning. Mice had cigarette smoke pumped into their noses while restrained.

Now? Those tests are banned. For the first time anywhere in the world.

This moment didn’t just happen. It was strategy. Psychology. And relentless advocacy.

So many people feel a deep, emotional connection with their dog or cat.

But what if we let that love stretch a little further — to pigs, cows, and chickens?

In this excerpt from my latest podcast, I speak with MP Emma Hurst about how our compassion for companion animals can become a bridge to caring for all animals.

This is a gentle, powerful conversation about empathy, animal rights, and the psychology behind why some animals are protected—and others aren’t.

Our pretty little silver tabby kitten Matilda growing up fast. The last two pics were taken early June, about two weeks after we welcomed her home 🫶🏼🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛. She’s now just over 7 months, and as at last week weighs about 3.4kgs. She was only about 1kg when I adopted her at 11 weeks old 🤯 She’s a beautiful little girl who brings so much joy and entertainment to our home 💗

In my latest podcast episode, Animals & Community, I shared some reflection prompts like:
 “Where in your life do you feel true belonging?”

Sometimes it looks like a circle of people.
 Other times, it’s a quiet moment — tea in hand, a purring cat nearby, and a voice note from someone who just gets it.

That’s what I’ve been creating inside the Animal Lovers Tribe — an intentional online community for mindful pet parents who value natural pet care, holistic healing, and heart-led connection.

My Story

Hi, I'm Ruth Hatten, animal naturopath, healer and plant based coach. I specialise in the health and wellbeing of animals. My ultimate goal in life is to make a difference for all animals, giving them a healthier, happier and longer life.

One way that I help animals is by helping people like you help your furry companions achieve optimum wellness through nutritional therapy and massage therapy. The result is a happier and healthier cat or dog and a happier you.

If your furry companion is suffering from disease, I can assist them in the healing process by stimulating their natural inherent ability to heal. I do this using natural healing modalities, like nutritional therapy and massage therapy. My approach complements conventional veterinary treatment and provides natural alternatives that don't result in adverse side effects.

If your furry companion appears healthy, I can help you ensure that he or she stays that way, naturally, through helping you feed your fur baby a species appropriate diet.
