We have geese. My husband thinks my spirit animal would be an angry goose. This is because one of our geese became very angry when we chased it around our paddock with scissors to trim its flight feathers. Can’t imagine why it was annoyed really😀?

A squirrel.

Look lovely when spotted from a distance or in the garden, but when touched I'll bite your fucking fingers off. I like my personal space.

I run around like a mad person most of the time and have no road sense.

Plus I love stuffing nuts in my mouth.

Mine is probably a raccoon... messy, loves food and when I have been at the makeup we could be identical twins

Zoflorabore · 17/03/2019 05:22

Mine is a crocodile, I bloody love them.
I will be called Oscar Grin

Taking this a bit too far....

Cat. Likes my own company, but affectionate when I want to be. Can be a bit of a bitch if I feel like it.

They are amazing creatures. Dangerous as hell though. Big salties are awe inspiring!

Fat elderly grumpy tabby.
Would always have been my spirit animal, even when I was young. Born old I was.

Redrupunzle · 17/03/2019 06:39

An elephant, strong and wise, family orientated, cross them and I'll charge at you!

barryfromclareisfit · 17/03/2019 06:47

The spirit animal representing my nature is a turtle. My spirit animal guide is a black wolf.

Redrupunzle · 17/03/2019 07:03

I just took an online quiz after reading this thread, turns out I'm a lion. Although in my head I'm still an elephant

Guinea Pig.

Neurotic, just wants to eat, jumpy.

marvellousnightforamooncup · 17/03/2019 07:20

A cat. I can be loving and funny but deep down I don't really give a fuck.

Huntsman spider. Scary looking and still. But come too close and I run off. I make grown me shriek Grin

I never expected to have one. I read about an online friend’s spirit animal and dismissed it as fanciful, he’s a pagan and Into well-meaning weirdshit. I did the quiz and recognised my inner turtle, then forgot about it. A few days later, whilst doing something unrelated, the wolf arrived, very close to my face to let me know he was there, then stood a few feet away, watching me, wary and reproachful. I am in awe of his beauty. He encourages me to be strong. In a strange city, feeling lost and alone, he was with me. I don’t know. I gave up superstition a long time ago. I don’t believe in looking for ‘signs’. I’m just watching with interest.
