CATegories
The
following was kindly sent to me by Shazam. Hope you enjoy
it.
Your relationship with your cat will prosper if you understand
your cat to be more than just fur and flesh. If you consider
your cat to be an actual consciousness, you will open yourself
to more rewarding experiences for both you and your pet,
and you will assist in bringing out the highest potential
of that loving being who you share your life with.
The following Cat CATegories will help to define
the focus that your cat was borne with. Note that three
of the categories suggest that the cat would do best as
the only pet in the home, being uncomfortable with other
pets. The categories are listed from the most prominent
category at the top of this list, to the two categories
that are most rare.
1.
Love This category is self explanatory.
This cat will seek every opportunity to extend (and hopefully
share) love to you and yours. It is best if you are aware
of his efforts, and his dedication to you may be dependent
on the quality of conversation and love-time that you return
to him. He may be the cat that can stare at a wall. He may
have a short attention span and head to the food bowl after
a bit of petting. He may have a purr that
will cause radio interference.
2.
Warrior This playful cat may like
to spend nights out on the town. As long as the cat
is neutered/spayed, he/she will not be looking for fights,
but looking for friends. This cat is great with gossip and
chit-chat with other critters, and may still like to roam
when he's a bit older. He may have a tendency to
roam a little too far to find someone to hang out with,
but quality food, treats and affection should help him remember
where he lives. It is advisable to sit outside with him
when you first start letting him out, even more so than
with the other cats. Walk with him to show him the territory
that you would prefer that he stay in; he may get a good
laugh out of it. To help him be better acclimated to your
turf where he can call "home", play with him in
the yard; letting him join you for all of your yard activities
(except for the noisy tools). He's the most
social cat of any of these categories, and the most accepting
of other pets. He may sleep stretched out and in your way,
but he'll look good doing it.
3.
Healer This is the cat who wants to
find his way onto your lap, and even your chest. He is constantly
sensing the emotions in those around him and he alone will
choose when it is the best time to approach you. This
is not to be confused with snuggling. There is an actual
healing sense that he has about himself and he fulfills
his role in life by exchanging silent energy with whomever
he perches on. Those who respect him for this unique ability
will be the ones to benefit the most from his efforts, and
will earn his intense dedication. It is
very rare that he would ever be dominating, though he may
be defensive if another animal enters his intimate healing
space. He requires a calmer energy level in the home and
will struggle to completely extend his innate skills if
he's distracted with other pets in the house. With many
pets in the house, he may hide from everyone, quietly yearning
to be the loving, healing cat that he was borne to be. He
can be misinterpreted as merely being shy. This cat
will not present himself to new people with any haste. He
will feel them out from behind the sofa and in 12 minutes
may suddenly jump on their lap if he feels that he would
be appreciated or needed; or may not come out at all.
A favored visit with him may be by holding him in your arms
so he can look over your shoulder, if you are calm. He likes
to sleep all curled up with his sides touching a surface.
4. Commander This cat will appear
as a love cat when he is not busy surveying his domain.
He is a fine investment as an only pet, as you recognize
him as the royalty that he is. You can sense his royalty
in the way that he carries himself, and he normally doesn't
want to be picked up or held. He may rarely
perch on your lap for very long; only long enough to command
your attention and for some petting. He likes a high perch
more so than the others cats. You might
feel his presence when he enters the room, as he will be
soliciting attention from you - his royal subject. He will
also patrol and command your yard and the neighboring yard,
and deserves recognition for tending to your perimeter.
He doesn't waver from his royal duties by having animal
friends, and will serve notice to other animals who trespass
into his kingdom. With another pet in the home, he'll throw
the first punch and might even pee around the house. He
is quite occupied with tending to his ward (you) by inspiring
you to honor yourself at least as much as you honor him.
He commands your love in order to remind you to share the
love that you have. He is very worthy of being the only
pet in your home.
5. Integrator This is the magic
cat of lore. He can do it all, and wants to do it all. This
cat integrates all of the abovemain traits into one highly
intelligent and loving package. This cat deserves to live
with a magician, an alchemist, or an animal communicator,
but those humans are even rarer than felines of this category.
More so than the other cats, this is the cat who needs to
be recognized as a consciousness, and to be exposed to more
Mozart and Beethoven than anything that modern media produces.
If you read Shakespeare, Yeats or Bradbury to him, he will
understand it before you will. He may want to be around
your shoulders more than other cats will, especially if
you read quite a bit and actually have an etheric field
around your head. Hell be attracted to quantum thinkers.
If he's not happy at home, he may seek
out mental stimulation and emotional refuge in a neighbor's
home, but will not actually run away unless he is abused.
He may appreciate the company of a horse, but he doesn't
deserve to have to worry about another pet in the home who
would distract the humans from their lessons and their development.
He will need to go outside as there is more valuable information
in nature for him there than anything that has ever been
broadcast on a television. (one in 100 cats)
6. Grounder/guardian (the REAL Merlin
cat) After this cat matures from the
basic kitten curiosity, he will settle down, and stare you
down even more intensely than a healer can. With his accelerated
intelligence, he can look through you and see your fourth
grade geography scores and your sophomore sociology final.
He will sit still more than other cats because his field
of awareness rivals that of a Buddhist monk. He
may tolerate another cat that he has taken the time to educate
but will be uncomfortable in a home that is too active,
too noisy or disrespectful of his highly expanded awareness.
If you need to talk, he will listen, and he will know what
is going on with you before you can articulate it yourself.
This cat could make YOU into an animal communicator. He
really can put pictures in your head, as communication.
Hes not an alien; hes just way ahead of the
curve. (one in 400 cats)
