 The Taurus pet is an easy-going, stay-at-home and mild-mannered soul...one whose only true downside is the tendency to be overly stubborn. It is also more likely that this pet will wait for an owner to approach, rather than the pet going to the owner, basically refusing to "come" until he or she is good and ready. In short, these animals can be called countless times...the name being repeated endlessly...or screamed at, or begged or be treated very nicely, it makes little difference.
If the Taurus pet is not in the mood to move, then he or she will stay put. In essence, animals governed by this Sign prefer to lounge where they are at the time and have others visit with them or cater to their whims.
Along those lines, once an owner does arrive at wherever the Taurus pet happens to be snoozing or luxuriating (which is a typical trait of this Zodiac Sign), some form of service will be fully expected by the animal...perhaps a tummy rub or special treat upon which to munch at leisure.
Simply put, the Taurus pet is a slow animal in almost every respect and he or she will certainly take life easy. For example, the Taurus cat can sit longer than any other feline, contemplating his or her surroundings. The Taurus dog harbors no desire to go anywhere...often for hours on end...in order to feel content and totally at peace. The Taurus horse will have no problem standing in the stable all week, until the owner decides to drag him or her out for a reluctant trot around the paddock.
However, this is why the Taurus pet makes for such a wonderful traveling companion. He or she adores sitting in the car (species permitting, of course) while being chauffeured around. Still, plenty of comfortable blankets and/or pillows will be required so the Taurus pet can sprawl out during the ride. This animal is not a very active or energetic creature. He or she much prefers to just "hang out" rather than engage in much playtime. That having been said, it should be noted that the animal governed by this Sign is not totally devoid of energy. He or she actually has a goodly supply, but it is the nature of Taurus to expend energy in an extremely conservative manner. Furthermore, this is a creature that likes to be groomed, pampered and catered to.
The Taurus pet will lap up all such attention and when an owner believes the job has been completed satisfactorily, the Taurus animal will think it has only just begun. Hence, the Taurus cat will adore being rubbed and caressed...the sensuous purrs informing an owner just how much this feline appreciates the loving care, even though such is expected. Regardless of species, all pets ruled by Taurus love to be groomed and a Taurus bird will relish having a mirror in the cage, so he or she can primp, pose and flex while admiring the beautiful image. While animals born under the Sign of Taurus may not be consciously aware that they are attracted to beauty, they will be automatically and instinctively drawn.
They truly know...somehow...when they are around beauty and when they are not. For instance, a Taurus pup will undoubtedly chew on the prettiest pair of shoes he or she can manage to drag from the closet. Taurus pets require lots of cuddly items...soft blankets, cushy pillows and beds, for example...and as mentioned above, those items must be visually pretty for these are very aesthetically inclined creatures.
Since the Sign of Taurus rules the neck and throat, this pet will be particularly sensitive or vulnerable to kinks, sore throats, colds, coughs, pulled muscles and other related ailments. A choke chain should never be used when walking a Taurus dog and all collars must sit comfortably around the neck. A regular check should be made to ensure that no collar is too tight, bearing in mind that tightness can easily change due to weight gain or the growth of fur.
And while on the subject of weight gain, animals governed by this Sign are so inclined. Thus, the diet of a Taurus pet should be carefully watched and the temptation to feed him or her table scraps and/or junk food must be avoided. These are creatures who put on weight very easily. In addition, they should never be fed bones of any kind as these can lodge in the throat...the most sensitive area of a Taurus animal's body. Overall, the Taurus pet is a comforting companion. He or she will be easy to train and welcome any nice gesture an owner wants to bestow. Not given to roam, the Taurus pet will more than likely stay around the home front...not straying too far from all the luxuries that his or her abode has to offer.
