Like their human owners, our pets are also governed by the stars and planets. The zodiac is divided up into 12 very different personality types, and it is perfectly natural that this should extend to animals, as well. It's possible to tell a great deal about your cat (mysterious creature that she is!) by looking into her astrological reading: her likes, dislikes, even favorite toys and activities! And, should you have a rescued or shelter cat— as we do here at The Cat's Meow—you can determine your cat's sign by reading the various astrology profiles. This may reveal facets of his personality you hadn't considered. (Now, we know why the Great Grey Hunter wants to go out in any weather; he's a Sagittarius!) Cats can be hedonists, lazy, friendly, aggressive, or timid. All these different traits can be explained by studying the astrological influences that determine their character and behavior patterns. We hope you enjoy learning a little about the zodiac and your cat in the brief descriptions below. NEXT WEEK we will go into greater detail and bring you some intriguing references to explore. |
||
 | Your Aries cat will be feisty and exuberant. Able to leap tall tables with a single bound, the Aries cat is truly an independent creature. The polarity of Libra to Aries, will make this cat a likable companion—but watch out for his claws. Aries is the sign of the powerful hunter, so if your Aries puss is confined to the inside, some furry play mice are a mandatory part of the landscape. Do not let this cat get away with any sass or you will be very sorry. |
|
 | The Taurus cat can lay in the sun all the day and just luxuriate. While a good hunter, this Taurus feline will 7manipulate you into doing most of the 'providing'. Adoring to be touched and loved, the Taurus cat demands your attention and will sit on your lap for hours expecting you to be a truly loving devotee. Compliments are very important to the Taurus cat and so is a very expensive and elegant collar. |
|
 | Usually a Gemini cat will be a big communicator. If not yowling, she will be purring for you to pay attention, rubbing around your legs as if saying "What is going on now?" Then she will just turn her back on you and walk away. Provide a variety of activities for this fickle creature or you will have some major damage as precious baubles are turned into toys. The Gemini is a great playmate for kids and would be happiest if paired with a litter mate. |
|
 | Moody but loving, the Cancer cat requires the most when it comes to goodies and treats. If you want tricks, you have chosen the wrong kitty unless you have found a Cancer cat with a Gemini moon. Mood swings are not unheard of, and this may be the strange cat that likes to take a bath. He's he center of attention at one moment and hiding in the attic the next moment. Unpredictable and fickle now and just as friendly as a puppy when you set down the third can of food you've opened. A real homebody. |
|
 | The sign Leo rules cats and a feline born under this sign is a true royal ruler of the house. These cats can make great house protectors and will bask in love and attention. A Leo cat will require the best in food and toys; some old toy left over from a previous pet will not be accepted. A diamond studded collar will make this cat happy though it might settle for rhinestones. Don't try to boss this cat or you may have a real temper tantrum on your hands. A monumentally great hunter when given the opportunity. If there's more than one cat in the family, your Leo feline will not be happy if not given the position as 'top cat'. |
|
 | The Virgo cat is finicky and extra clean and expects everything in the home to be the same way. This cat will not tolerate a dirty litter box and may just report you to the humane society if you don't keep him or her in an acceptable environment. Extremely loving, the Virgo Kitty will know when you are ill and might even try to snuggle up to the part of you that hurts. Keep a special space for this kitty as Virgo likes to know that there is always a safe place to hide away when things get too out of control. |
|
 | The Libra Cat will demand love and attention. Brush her hair. Clip his nails. Even a bath might be demanded as this cat knows it is beautiful and expects that beauty to be appreciated. This sensuous cat will adore a velvet pillow and needs a scratching post to keep the nails looking good. Don't forget to tell her that she is beautiful or you may see some sulking around the house. Libra cats do not do well if left at home alone, so it might be good to consider a companion animal. |
|
 | If you ever wondered about declawing your cat when it attacked you suddenly from behind the sofa, you probably have a Scorpio cat (or one with a few Scorpio planets). This is the cat that will make a mess in your bed if you anger it or in some way offend it. You might not even know what you did but, if you are single and bring someone over to spend the night, you may find yourself in some real trouble. This cat will enjoy a pillow or bed in red or burgundy. A few tidbits of shrimp or tuna may get you a reprieve, but this cat never forgets if you have insulted it —so never forget to say "hello" when you get home or "good-bye" when you leave. |
|
 | The Sagittarius cat will have the most trouble of all the signs settling down and just staying in the house. He's the roaming Fool of the cat world. This cat thrives on variety. A Sagittarius cat makes a great familiar for working rituals (so does a Scorpio Cat) and could help you really achieve some magic in your life. If you like to travel, consider taking her with you. Training to a leash (if you live in the city) is an excellent idea—a walk is just up this cat's alley. |
|
 | The Capricorn cat is going to act younger as it gets older. Always a little serious and comfort-seeking, the Capricorn cat needs to know that the best of everything is available. Never leave this cat at home without plenty of extra dry food when you are gone or he will have an anxiety attack. This is one of the most loyal of the signs and the Capricorn cat makes a great family cat. He likes children and it is a good idea as it gets older to introduce a kitten into the household to keep it company. |
|
 | Unique personality is definitely the trait of an Aquarian cat. It will adapt well into households with lots of animals and is friendly across species. A bit of a clown, the Aquarius cat will have unusual coloring or in some way stand out from all the other cats that you know. Fiercely independent, she will need lots of quality time alone. This is a perfect cat to have if you work long hours. |
|
 | The Pisces cat is most happy with a bit of catnip and a toy mouse to play with and pretend that it is real. In fact, this cat likes any toy that looks like something from the real world. A very intuitive creature, the Pisces cat will know when you are coming home even before you have turned onto your street. A Pisces cat loves to nap. He would especially enjoy have a bowl full of fish (covered, of course) to stare at for hours. |
