</div>

are you trying to list all _posts_ by category or just the category names?

So you created a page called `animals.md` for listing all posts with a category of `animals` and you want the title of that page to show on a page that lists all of the different categories?

how would the animals.md page be created? manually? maybe it could be part of a collection and you loop thru that to make the category list page?
