Animals are creatures that were sent from heaven and they are angels in disguise because of how pure and innocent those lovely creatures are. The term 'spirit animal' was observed and created because each animal has their own distinctive personality and it is very much close to the nature of a human, psychologically speaking.
My spirit animal is a hedgehog. I found mine through a test on Pottermore which I took and as a result, I obtained a cute little hedgehog as a Patronus. First of all let's talk about this spiny yet adorable mammal. A hedgehog is too cute to be true. It is named as such because of its method of food hunting. They root through hedges in search of insects.
Hedgehogs sound funny. Listen to it and be confused and amazed at the same time. There are certainly pros and cons of keeping one as a pet, as shown here. Nonetheless, I will not be covering much on that particular subject.
Why a hedgehog is my spirit animal is because of how similar we are to one another. Hedgehogs are typically observed as timid and a loner, in which I possess both of the traits. Moreover, they are known to be anxious and overly cautious. These traits may seem like a social disadvantage and a burden but I'll gladly be myself and face the world in my own skin. This is because the most beautiful way of experiencing life is by being yourself. Plus, the description of my Patronus which directly describes who I am sounds beautiful and it seems the world needs more people like me.
