There is nothing more offensive for cat owners than their pet suddenly leaving home.

However, sometimes this happens. There is a rational explanation for why an animal leaves the house.

Folk omens also explain the departure of a cat. They were created before the advent of zoopsychologists and felinologists, who helped to better understand domestic animals.

The cat left home: interpretation of the sign

There is a popular belief that a cat leaves the house when it senses its own death or misfortune in the family. Superstition says that the animal "does not flee", but on the contrary, takes away troubles and failures, protecting its owners.

Folk beliefs

There are other signs on this account. For example, if a cat leaves home, the family will soon have an addition.

There is a separate interpretation of such a situation: a cat once suddenly came to the threshold of the house, and then, having lived for some time, suddenly left. In this case, it is considered that the pet has fulfilled its mission.

Esotericists believe that cats are free to choose their owners themselves, for example, when people need help.
