Want to make the holidays a little brighter for your playful pet? Check out this list of gift ideas for pets based on their zodiac sign. While you're at it, be sure to take a look at your pet's zodiac sign according to what time of year they were born.

Capricorn

December 22 - January 19

Your Capricorn kitty or pooch is likely a loyal soul that loves to be given a task. For Christmas, give them a gift that will occupy that work-seeking nature, such as a set of Multipet Squishy Pals Dog Toys that you can hide for a dog to seek around the house. Or, for the Capricorn kitty, try the Petstages Chase Meowtain Blue Cat Toy.

Aquarius

January 20 - February 19

Feed your Aquarian's need to explore and be curious with a new treat, a new toy, or anything that will pique their curiosity. An ever-inspecting cat may love this Cosmic Pet Alpine Cat Scratcher, and give your Aquarius dog a treat it will have to work a little hard to enjoy like a Kong filled with natural peanut butter.

Pisces

February 20 - March 20

How about a new Pioneer Pet Swan Plastic Pet Water Fountain? This makes a great gift since this water sign enjoys water and will likely be fascinated by the new way to drink. And, the fountain works just as well for cats as it does for dogs.

Aries

March 21 - April 20

Spunky, impulsive, and energetic, these pets need a way to burn off some of their pent-up energy. How about a superhero-themed harness for a dog that's always ready to go, or an adjustable harness and leash for your adventurous feline?

Taurus

April 21 - May 20

Taurus pets are all about getting their nap on, so there will be no better Christmas gift for these pets than somewhere comfy to take a nap. The Precision Pet Products Snoozzy Hip As A Zig Zag Hide And Seek Bed is bound to be your cat's new favorite sleeping spot, and any small dog would find peaceful slumber in a Cuddle Cave.

Gemini

May 21 - June 20

Always exploring and always intelligent, Gemini pets are a joy to have around, and these pets love to play. Try the PetSafe Zoom Rotating Laser Cat Toy for hours of endless stimulation, or look for an automated dog toy that offers continuous entertainment.

Cancer

June 21 - July 22

Cancer pets love to cuddle with their favorite human, so how about something to enhance that cuddle time? A new Furminator will give your pet some cuddle time and you the chance to remove all that loose hair.

Leo

July 23 - August 22

Leo pets love their toys, and no other pet had better not look at their toys, so a new toy for Christmas is always a good choice. How about a Multipet Creaky Bone Dog Toy or a brand-new Mad Cat Tabby Taco Cat Toy?

Virgo

August 23 - September 22

Feed your Virgo pet's need to please with some one-on-one training time for Christmas, and of course, some tasty treats. Grab some bite-sized training treats to really make the interaction fun.

Libra

September 23 - October 22

Libra pets crave human interaction, so they may even love bath time simply because they get your undivided attention. If that happens to be the case, grab some lickable treats to keep them occupied in the tub.

Scorpio

October 23 - November 22

Scorpio pets like to challenge their own intelligence with something that helps them learn a new trick or task. So puzzle toys are an awesome pick for a pet Christmas gift.

Sagittarius

November 23 - December 21

Sagittarius pets love any new adventure, so why not pick up a few supplies and head out to find something new. Whether it's a hiking trail or a trip to the park, your pet will be ecstatic to see a new place or new animals to play with. Be sure to grab a portable water bowl before you head out.
