 * Have many methods of avoiding or deterring danger
 * Will warn off potential enemies
 * Have truly unique, perplexing, and almost ingenius methods of self-defence which have to be seen to be believed
 * Enjoy attention, but not all the time; you are quite content with spending time with your friends for short but regular, rather than long but infrequent, periods of time
 * Most sociable when fully awake; a bit grumpy when you just want to sleep
 * It is generally clear by your body language when you are willing to be friendly with somebody
 * Considered a solitary person, and are quite happy working individually, but you're more social than people give you credit for
 * Can be grumpy (especially when not feeling well), but generally enjoy being in the company of friends
 * Like to follow your friends around, to the point that you may get under peoples' feet
 * Consider bribery acceptable - treats certainly help to win you over

 * May try to flee an unfamiliar place
 * Not overly social with the oppoite sex; you will come to a sort of tentative truce at best
 * While you enjoy variety, you need consistency in your life
 * Don't like change; you will become withdrawn for a little while until you adjust

 * Naturally energetic; you are "on the go" for most of your waking hours

 * Virtually immune to attacks or comments of any kind
 * Thoroughly investigate unfamiliar objects and are irresistably attracted to some
 * Very well-behaved: rarely do you lash out aggressively
 * Contrarily, there are times you could be called far from peaceful; when dealing with somebody who invades your privacy you will become agitated and aggressive

 * Not territorial, but you like people to keep their distance and not invade your privacy
 * Know every nook and cranny of your territory and have well-defined routes
