Sometimes people who find a strange cat on their doorstep puzzle over what prompted the animal to do this.
In fact, this behavior is explained by a number of reasons.
Real reasons
It is quite possible that someone else's pet "knocked" on your door because it ran away from home or got lost.
It also happens that street animals ask for shelter - for example, when the weather is bad outside or when they feel very hungry.
If a cat is pregnant, the reason is obvious: she just wants to find a quiet place to give birth.
Signs
An explanation for this extraordinary phenomenon can be found among folk signs.
So, if a stray cat comes to you, consider keeping it – it means that it trusts the inhabitants of the house and has good intentions. If you shelter such an animal, luck will enter your home.
When a small kitten appears at the door, needing care and protection, it is a good sign for couples planning to have a child. If the spouses decide to shelter the feline baby, they will soon be rewarded with their own offspring.
Finally, there are a number of signs associated with the color of a cat's fur. For example, gray cats promise good luck in difficult life situations, white cats are considered healers, black cats protect from damage, and red cats give luck.
