Animal Spirits are whales, dolphins, fishes. But there usually are other animal spirits which attract Cancerians. I have always felt kin to the cat. They are spiritual in nature and attune with transformation. Bast, Goddess of Cats, is one who visits often.
Cats are strong protectors, independent, self assured, emotional, and capable of seeing spirits.
They tend to be loyal and bond to those who love them. It is also spiritual, guiding me along the path out of Limitations and into Light. Also, because it has taught me much about myself as well as those around me. Kali is 14 years of age and has an attitude. She rules the roost around here.
