Fur-Baby Zodiac Signs and What they Mean
by Victoria Atterberry
Most people know their own zodiac sign, but what about precious pets? Ever wondered if the stars have a say in a furry friend’s personality?
Bernadette King, professional psychic medium and animal communicator in Greater Gainesville, shared some of the ways to spot which sign belongs to which pet.
According to King, all living things have a consciousness so whether it is a dog, cat, bird, hamster or gerbil, they are bound to have unique character traits. Finding out a pet’s zodiac sign is just like finding one’s own—look to what date they were born. However, if a pet has been adopted from a shelter or was rescued, King said the best way to find their sign is to take note of their unique behaviors. Keep reading to learn the characteristics that coordinate with each sign for every kind of pet.
