For example, if you have a cat that is low on activity, high on being social, has a fairly even temperament, and is waiting for you at the door whenever you return home, extrapolating from the aforementioned personality traits, your pet’s behavior could indicate that you are more cautious, easygoing, solitary, friendly, and secure. Most likely, you are co-dependent, work long hours, prefer low-energy situations that involve eating or watching movies, and are probably a bit pretentious. While you love being around people, you probably prefer large groups to one-on-one situations. It takes a lot to make you mad, but if you get there, you will most likely stay that way until something actively fixes it. These traits do not represent you because you have a cat. They represent you because you have your particular cat, and she or he became an extension of you. These traits also manifest themselves in those that you would be romantically compatible with, allowing you to pick and choose your mate based on coinciding personality traits.
