Russel Grant's Pet Horoscopes

Aries:There's no doubt about it, you are looking good; all fluffed up and walking around with extra spring in your step! When well due attention comes your way, you'll want to live up to your role as a pacesetter and inspire those who observe you to keep up. Why not put on your best behaviour and demonstrate your most amusing tricks to entertain onlookers. It won't be hard convincing anyone of your greatness; they'll understand without any prodding from you and will shower you with compliments.

Taurus:You may not as a rule like messiness, but when that mess is a delicious spill from the table, your attitude changes. Whatever luscious splashes fall onto the floor you're quick to help tidy up because these morsels taste so good. There's no reason to think your housemates would object to your doing this and while it's fine to indulge, some of these could add inches to your circumference. Heavy sauces, for example, are high in fat and calories, while adding little nourishment; be wise!

Gemini:As has happened many times in the past, if there's trouble to be got into, you're in the thick of it. Now things move from bad to worse in terms of your human's annoyance with you. Perhaps you've invited too many friends into the house without permission again. Certainly you ought to know better. How long has it been since you last ventured out and returned home with a following of new friends; have you forgot how that turned out? Learn, little one, learn!

Cancer:Rising to the occasion isn't always for you, especially on a lazy day, but currently you seem better able to take care of a few household tasks that had previously befuddled you. A healthy dose of reassurance from your housemates goes a long way toward making you feel more confident and appreciated, as do a series of treats or rewards for a job well done. Enjoy each compliment and gratefully accept any goodies that are offered; you've certainly earned them!

Leo:When your humans have a stroke of good fortune, you're not at all surprised; you're quite sure any blessings that come into your household are due solely to your personal magnetism. While it's true you generally do generate good vibrations, not everything that occurs is the result of your presence. Those you live with deserve some credit for sheer effort put forth to achieve domestic goals. Put your cleverness to use to attract the food treat of your dreams or a relaxing backrub.

Virgo:Because the one you live with depends on you to be the predictable one, it's a curve in the game when you break your daily routine. Why would you have veered off course as you have? Are you trying to avoid some unpleasantness that you fear may result from sticking to old rituals? Your odd behaviour will surely mystify your humans, but if you put your mind to it, you'll find a way to let them know you're excited at the prospect of new changes.

Libra:New friendships and happy connections await you away from home, perhaps at the workplace of the person you live with. Wherever you're taken you'll surely meet interesting creatures of all types and learn something more about how the world works. Don't worry if some of your travels are by night; there are lovely lights and mysteries to behold under moonlit skies. Of course you should look to your human buddies for guidance before jumping too quickly into the unknown; they know what's best for you.

Scorpio:If you feel slighted or overlooked or upset with a friend, it colours your entire existence. You don't seem well equipped to able to shake off lesser upsets and this can become quite a problem. As you hold on to negative thoughts and keep adding more, before you know it you won't be able to get up in the morning; you'll be weighted down with emotional baggage! As your humans see you sinking into this funk, a visit to a pet psychic or psychologist may be needed!

Sagittarius:Expecting a few ups and downs will make your week a bit easier as you're sure to have a few! Mental confusion and a general nervousness may plague you a good part of the month, but all is not lost. You can use this time to leave your usual gregarious anima aside and withdraw to a quiet zone for peace and renewal. It does everyone good to retreat from the busyness of the world for periods of time; rest, relax and let the planet spin without you.

Capricorn:Hardworking friends are happy to have you along as a helper while they carry out their current hot project; you're such a willing worker, eager and proud of being part of the team. Keep that good attitude in place when the work is done and it's time to enjoy the fruits of your labours. When the team celebrates the completion of the task, don't go poking about for another immediate job, join in the party and show everyone that you're more multidimensional than they thought!

Aquarius:While fun, frolic and friends are typically at the top of your list of priorities, an uncharacteristic impulse to get some work done sweeps over you. What a good time to impress your housemate with not only good intentions, but the actual accomplishment of some household tasks well done! No reason to think this will be drudgery; when your companion puts on some peppy music the two of you will twist and wiggle your way through a variety of chores hardly realising you're working.

Pisces:There are several forces working against you now, it's not just your imagination! You'll need to apply greater effort to get the humblest of tasks done or to concentrate on what your housemate is saying. It might be best if you don't try to do anything important at all for a few weeks; what could be nicer than an excuse to just laze about! Misunderstandings arise easily, so if you're told to do something by your humans, pay close attention and aim to please.
