The Bookcase Mountaineer
Your Sagittarius cat was born with a map in their head and no intention of following it. Ruled by Jupiter, planet of big adventures, they explore every open wardrobe, every suitcase and the top of every bookcase in the house. They are funny, bouncy and fearless, the cat who turns an ordinary Tuesday into a daring expedition across the kitchen.
Sagittarius is mutable fire, so they thrive on variety and fresh horizons. They need things to climb, places to explore and a family who laughs at their antics, which is lucky, because your Sagittarius is very funny indeed. Life with them is a long-running comedy with plenty of daring stunt work.
Five things that make your Sagittarius cat tick
- Expedition LeaderA new room, an open wardrobe, a visitor's coat: all uncharted territory, explored nose first and tail waving.
- Born ClimberThe highest point in any room is their goal. Shelves and the tallest cat tree are summits to conquer.
- Class ClownThey slide off the sofa, look at you, then do it again on purpose. Their comic timing is excellent.
- Freedom LoverThey like plenty of nap spots, perches and routes through the house. They hate feeling boxed in, unless it is a real box.
- The 3am GallopTheir midnight run is a full speed house tour, with a skid at the corner and a thud on the stairs.
How to love a Sagittarius cat
- Build climbing routes with sturdy shelves and a tall cat tree.
- Turn cardboard boxes into tunnels and forts to explore.
- Move a perch to a different window now and then for a fresh view.
- Laugh at their jokes. They love an audience.
- Play fast, sweeping wand toy games, then put the wand away when the fun ends.
Very Sagittarius behavior
- Climbs the bookcase, admires the view, then yells for applause.
- Sees every open suitcase as a ticket somewhere wonderful.
- Races through the house at 3am like they are late for a trip.
On quiet days they invent their own adventure, usually on top of something you thought was out of reach.
