About This Quiz

Everyone has a kindred spirit, but only a select few of us are worthy of having a wild cat represent us! Once you tell us about your lifestyle, your personality, and your love for cats, we will let you know which one is out there mirroring you. You might live your life as fast as a cheetah, but are you more of a lion on the hunt?

You don't need to be a zoologist to figure out your kindred cat spirit. In fact, we want to focus more on the way you move through life more than your knowledge of big cats. After we see how your instincts work, it will be easy to figure out which majestic feline is out there living your parallel animal life. 

As we claw our way through this quiz, every answer you give us will give away your primal traits and your animal instincts. Try not to tame your responses - we want to see you as raw and as in the flesh as a lion's meal. Then, we will compare your ways to the known traits of all the wild cats out there.

Which fierce wild cat will you call your kindred spirit? Quiz along with us, and you'll know for sure!
