that's very weird but i'm gonna try to show you a different point of view,
after asking you kindly to never do that!
as the sumerian epic of creation was a "planetary epic" in a clear indication to the importance of astrology and what's happening in sky,
cosmic cycles are more than your luck today or how to abuse the planets for your benefits! i believe it's much more and affect both of us and the gods) but that's a story for another day.
back to the epics of creation, in "hinduism one" the presence of animals was overwhelming,
same for ancient egypt (which is the most important) some of the neterus was represented by the body of a human and head of an animal.
there's also not long ago the shamanic tribes which held huge sanctity to animals!
and OF COURSE they are sacred to "Satan and Lilith" which urges us to wonder why?
my conclusion was as much as we related with the planets we also related to animals maybe it's in our dna, maybe they have their own spiritual realms (which holding much wisdom) connected to us somehow, but for definitely i know they are more than what they seem: for me i've learned from the cats more than i can tell and it was a critical factor in my journey.
in the end i encourage you to trying to understand the attractions you have to a specific animal and stop looking to it as a merely sex toy..
