Exploring Your Pet’s Zodiac Sign and Personality Traits
May 15, 2024 | Miriam Slozberg
When considering adopting a dog or a cat, you focus on the breed. However, there is another thing that you will want to consider before you adopt your furry friend. That is the date of birth of your pet. If you are adopting a rescue, you may not know. However, if you are adopting a puppy or a kitten, you will know more about it. What is important to consider regarding your new furry friend you want to bring home? You will want to know about your pet’s horoscope as it will impact its personality. Let’s go over how your pet’s zodiac sign affects them. If you are already a pet owner and know its birthdate, then its traits will make more sense to you.
Aries – Energetic, Pushy, and Loyal Pet
If your beloved dog or cat is an Aries and headstrong, that is why. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and a fire sign. Therefore, those born under this sign are passionate, energetic, and impulsive. That includes your beloved pet. Your dog may dash out of the house when you open the door.
They may also not be very obedient when you call them. Fido may also pull heavily on the leash when walking them. If your cat is an Aries, it will be more disobedient and may not like being an indoor cat. It may want to disappear outside and return home once it decides. However, your Aries pet is loyal and also wants to please you.

Taurus – Stubborn, Hungry, and Protective
Taurus is an earth sign, and those born under it are known to be practical but stubborn. They are also known to be possessive and love material things. If your dog or cat is a Taurus and loves to lie around in the same spot, that is why. Your pet may also always want to eat and manipulate you for treats.
You will want to ensure that your pet packs on the pounds sparingly. Therefore, if your pet’s vet tells you to cut down on the treats, your pet won’t be happy.
You will also have a challenging time with their behaviors. Your pet will also love to chew on toys, and they will have their favorite ones, too. However, one thing you can be sure of is that your pet will protect you. As challenging as their behaviors may be, they will do what they can to keep you safe.
Gemini – Friendly, Smart, and Curious
Gemini is an air sign, and those born under it are known to be curious, intelligent, versatile, and social. If your beloved pet is a Gemini, expect them to get into mischief if they are not adequately stimulated.
They want to play constantly. And that even goes for your cat. If you have a dog, you will want to send them with a walker or doggie daycare. You will want to ensure that your Gemini pet has plenty of toys to stimulate them.
They are also very smart and will enjoy you taking the time to teach them commands. A Gemini pet may not be ideal if you are looking for a low-energy pet. If you want a pet that constantly wants to play, then this pet is perfect.
Cancer is the first water sign in the zodiac. It is nurturing, sensitive, and protective of its home. Cancers are emotional and love family. Your Cancer pet will be loyal to anyone in their pack, which is their family, and will protect the home.
But your Cancer pet is also sensitive. That means if your pet gets into trouble and you scold it, it will cower and leave the room. It could sulk for a long time until it is over.
They may constantly whine over the slightest issue that bothers them, which can annoy you. You must be patient with your Cancer pet’s sensitive behaviors, as they can also be clingy. If you are a homebody, this is your ideal pet.
Leo – Energetic, Playful, and Protective
Leo is the second fire sign, and those born under it love royalty, fun, and energy. If your pet is a Leo, it loves to play and will do anything to get your attention. It’ll do funny poses and tricks or give out a loud meow or bark to get your attention. And if you pay attention to them because of their antics, they will be delighted.

Your Leo dog will constantly go on their back, so you give them belly rubs. If you have a Leo cat, they will want you to provide them with rubs and won’t want you to stop. Remember, they love and need attention.
Your Leo pet wants to play, and giving them toys is only good enough if you interact with them. Therefore, they want to play with you, and they can be demanding of your attention. However, as annoying as that may be, remember they are loyal and fierce protectors, too.
Virgo is the second earth sign in the zodiac. Those with this sign are analytical, organized, and hardworking. They also want to please others, so they are service-oriented.
If you have a Virgo pet, they will be eager to please you, even if you have a cat. That means your Virgo cat will litter-train quickly, and your dog will housebreak fast. They don’t like dealing with those messes like you don’t. You will also notice that your Virgo pet often grooms themselves because they love to be clean.
If you have a Virgo dog, you need to ensure that it has a regular bath and grooming schedule. You will also be amazed to see how smart it is. Therefore, it needs stimulation, too. Get it toys to keep it busy, and ensure you give your Virgo dog plenty of walks.
Libra – Social, Eager to Please, Insecure
Libra is the second air sign in the zodiac, and those with this sign value relationship and beauty. Balance is essential to Libras, and your Libra pet wants to feel balanced within. Your Libra pet is also very social, and that even goes for the cat under this sign.
That means you will want to ensure you are home a lot if you get a Libra cat. And if you get a Libra dog, prepare to send it to doggy daycare, where they can get their social fixes.
Otherwise, they will feel imbalanced and depressed. Your Libra dog or cat also wants to sleep next to you, as they are insecure when alone. That is also why they follow you around all the time.
Scorpio – Intelligent, Mischievous, Protective
Scorpio is the second water sign, the zodiac’s most intense and mysterious sign. If you get a Scorpio dog or cat, they may prefer to keep to themselves.
If they want affection from you, they will seek it on their terms. You also want to keep them busy as they are intelligent. This pet will quickly get into mischief as they are curious. Therefore, if you leave your home with your Scorpio pet and return to a ruined sofa, that is why.
Ensure you close all the doors in your home if you cannot supervise. They will get into items in rooms and ruin them. However, your Scorpio pet will always be loyal to you, so they will protect you in any way they can.
Sagittarius – Active, Fun, Adventurous Pet
Sagittarius is the final and third fire sign of the zodiac. Those born under the sign are known to be freedom seekers, adventurous, active, and happy.
Your Sagittarius pet may be a happy-go-lucky puppy or kitty that constantly wants to play. Your dog may wag its tail, and your kitty may purr. These pets are happy to be with their humans and are playful.
As they climb, your kitty may need plenty of toys and a cat tree. Otherwise, they will climb on tables and mantles. Your puppy must get out to the dog park or doggie daycare. Your Sagittarius will get bored, which is not what you want. They need adventure and action, so you must be active to have this pet.
Capricorn – Easy to Train, Working, and Loyal
Capricorn is the last earth sign of the zodiac and is known to be the most industrious sign. Those with this sun sign are hardworking, dedicated, and committed, making them loyal.
The great thing about these Capricorn furbabies is that they are effortless to train. If given a task or command, they want to get it right. Therefore, they will break into houses or litter-train fast. They will also learn quickly about their boundaries as they will keep out of trouble. If certain rooms are off-limits for these pets, they will obey their owners.
Therefore, they are highly dedicated to pleasing their owners. However, because these pets are hard workers, they need stimulation. Your Capricorn cat needs plenty of stimulating toys, and your dog needs plenty of walks.
Aquarius – Intelligent, Loves to Roam, Strong-Willed
Aquarius is the zodiac’s third and last air sign, and this is the most progressive sign. Those born under this sign are independent, march to their drummer, and inventive.
Therefore, if you adopt an Aquarius pet, you will end up with one that will likely not listen to you. If you call them over, they will lie where they are, look at you, and not obey you. They will also roam when they choose.
If you have an Aquarius cat, they will roam outdoors and in the house. If your dog is an Aquarius, you will find that it will roam at night and jump on tables. These animals are also brilliant, so they need proper stimulation, or they will ruin furniture. You have to have a lot of patience to have an Aquarian pet.
However, this is a good choice if you don’t like your pet clingy. They are independent animals and will only cuddle with you on their terms.
Pisces – Sensitive, Creature of Habit, and Curious
Pisces is the last water sign, and those with this sign are sensitive, intuitive, and may be clingy. Pisces is a good choice if you want to have a loyal pet by your side. Your Pisces cat or dog is sensitive, can be clingy, and faithful.
If you are unwell or something is wrong, they will sense it and stick with you. If you are sick, they will sleep next to you to comfort you. However, these animals are creatures of habit, as they will find their favorite spot. They may have a favorite pillow, cat, or dog bed that they consider their safe place.
However, as sweet as these pets are, they are also curious. They can get into the garbage or off-limit rooms. You want to ensure they have no access to any of that.
Key Takeaways For Your Pet
When looking for a furry friend, you will want to consider the breed and the zodiac sign. Because of their instincts, pets may exhibit more traits from their moon sign than their sun sign.
If you know the pet’s birthday, you can also find its moon sign to understand its personality better.
If you already have a pet and want to learn more about it, look up its moon sign. You will then know why it behaves the way it does. This may not be easy if it is a rescue animal. Either way, a pet is a loving companion, even with its quirks.
