As any cat parent will know, every cat is different. Some are very affectionate, some more independent, some extra intelligent and some are just plain goofballs! Have you ever wondered why your furry family member acts a certain way?
To better understand your complex kitty, it might help to look to the stars. Zodiac signs have long intrigued many who seek a little guidance or self-awareness, so it makes sense to also consider how your kitty's sign may influence their personality.
While not based on any scientific or factual evidence, astrology can be a fun and harmless way to get to know your cat a little better.
