For centuries, cats have been considered mysterious creatures, and their presence in the home has been accompanied by many signs and superstitions.
The most interesting thing is that you can find dozens of popular superstitions about cats that our ancestors believed in, so the most popular ones are worth examining in a little more detail.
Wool color
There are beliefs associated with the color of a cat's fur. For example, a white cat is considered a symbol of good luck, a gray cat protects from negativity, and a red cat is a harbinger of financial prosperity. Therefore, depending on the color, a cat can bring different benefits.
Purring
A cat's purring is often perceived as its way of creating a protective field around the home.
According to superstition, purring cats can drive away negativity and troubles in life. At the same time, special attention should be paid to rationality. A cat will never purr if it feels discomfort or danger.
Tail position
When a cat raises its tail up, it is interpreted as a sign of happiness and well-being. It is believed that such a pose attracts positive energies and brings joy to the home.
Of course, here our ancestors still paid attention to the rational component. A cat will never raise its tail up if it feels threatened.
Bad habits
Sometimes a cat's behavior changes for the worse without any apparent reason. For example, it may get dirty, go to the toilet outside the litter box, and much more. If such behavior has not been noticed before, it may be a kind of sign of danger or negativity in the house.
Brought the prey
If a cat brings prey, such as a mouse, it is considered an additional sign of good luck. There is an opinion that if an animal brings prey to its owners, it can symbolize well-being. There is also an opinion that with its prey the cat shows its participation in the well-being and comfort of the family. The fact is that the animal is simply trying to share the best with its owners.
Night walks
If a cat prefers night walks, this can have different meanings. As a rule, animals show nocturnal activity if they feel danger or if there is someone in the house.
There is also an opinion that cats at night can simply play with the brownie, who does not show himself during the day.
