Our ancestors believed that a cat is a brownie's assistant who helps the "master of the house" protect its inhabitants from ill-wishers and dark forces.
If this point of view doesn’t seem convincing to you for getting a kitten, meet the other three – and you will find out why the new member of your family should appear in January.
Will relieve depression
After the New Year, many people begin to think about the fact that another stage of their life has passed, about unfulfilled desires and promises that were never fulfilled, about undone tasks and losses, as a result of which the mood becomes gloomy, and then depression is just around the corner.
The best cure for gloomy thoughts is a kitten - firstly, because it gives joy and smiles, and secondly, because it requires attention and care, which means that you will have neither time nor energy for the blues.
Will brighten up loneliness
Your friends went on January holidays to warm countries and actively share photos of their vacation on social networks, while you stayed at home and spent time watching TV and the news feed?
If so, then a great way to change the situation is to get a kitten! With the appearance of a small creature in your home, you are no longer alone - now you have someone to take care of and love.
Prevent danger
Cats have a keen sense of smell and can distinguish more odors than humans – you probably know of situations where pets have saved their owners by smelling smoke or gas.
In January, when there are many holidays, we can forget about something important - to blow out a candle or turn off the stove. Since a kitten's sense of smell is as good as that of an adult animal, you can sleep peacefully - if there is danger, your little friend will wake you up.
