You have a system. Your Aquarius pet has a theory that systems are for other animals. They are quirky, independent and friendly, the kind of creature who uses the cat flap as a lookout post or brings you the one toy you forgot you owned. You are tidy, watchful and helpful. Nothing about your styles lines up neatly, which is what makes it funny. You spend your days adjusting, and they spend theirs inventing new things for you to adjust to.
An Aquarius needs freedom, novelty and a person who accepts their wonderful weirdness. You bring patience and a sharp mind for puzzles, which is exactly what you need to keep up with them. Once you stop trying to organize their quirks, you find them endlessly entertaining. Keep a notebook handy. You will want to remember all of this.
If your Aquarius is a dog
Your Aquarius dog has invented a walking route that loops past the same fire hydrant three times, and you have stopped asking why. At home they make friends with the vacuum cleaner and ignore the expensive new bed you researched for weeks.

Your Aquarius cat sleeps in the recycling bin one day and on top of the bookshelf the next, completely ignoring the lovely bed you chose. You have made peace with it and started photographing their choices instead.

Once a week, set out a new cardboard puzzle or box maze, let them explore it their own way, and take notes on what they invent.
