Nailed to the house
According to cat beliefs, a cat or kitten is used to solve many problems. Therefore, predictors believe that if such pets take root, they should not be driven away, but rather sheltered.

To avoid their development, she should be fed and caressed. After which she will leave on her own and take with her all the hardships and sorrows that have accumulated in your home.
A stray cat or someone else's cat runs up to you on the street and runs all the way to your house - it means she wants to warn you about something.

Left home
There are several reasons why animals leave home:
- It's a bad omen when a cat leaves home forever. It is possible that soon someone in the family will become seriously ill and die.
- If a cat jumped out of a window, trouble is inevitable. A cat throwing itself out of a window is a sign of great misfortune - illness, death.
- The cat leaves the house for no reason, it is possible that he will soon get sick and wants to die alone.
- If a cat disappears suddenly, it is most likely due to the bad attitude of its owner.
A dead cat in the house is a bad sign. Such an animal attracts only failures and troubles. Therefore, drowning or killing these animals is strictly prohibited. If you decide to kill kittens or their parents, expect misfortune that could spread to your entire family.
On the window
If a cat sits on the window, this is a sure sign that bad people are approaching your home. Thus, the cat on the window tries to scare away ill-wishers by sitting on the windowsill.
If you saw a cat sitting on the window, scratching the windowsill, expect a big quarrel or scandal with someone close to you, so try to control your behavior and emotions.
If a pussy throws itself out of a window, this omen foretells unpleasant events, a fire in the house is possible. A cat fell out of your window - such an unpleasant incident can happen not only to you, but also to your neighbors.
Brings kittens
If someone else's cat gets killed and gives birth in your home, that's a good sign. Such an animal has gained confidence in your family and wants to give your home great luck and prosperity. It is an especially good sign if the cat chose a baby bed for her birth.
It is a bad sign if, after giving birth, a cat begins to secretly take kittens out of the house and hide them from the owner. Most likely, the animal has a presentiment that someone in the house will get sick, or that such owners will face big troubles and problems.
If a cat gave birth to dead kittens, most likely you or your family have old damage that needs to be removed.
The cat protects from evil forces
Sometimes the cat goes into the far corner and becomes wary. This is explained by the fact that she saw evil spirits there. You need to help your pet drive away the evil spirits. Some people use a broom for this, others read cleansing prayers or spells, and still others do not pay any attention to this situation.
Cats help protect against damage and the evil eye. In order to take advantage of the strong energy of an animal, when you feel danger or hostility, you need to take the animal in your arms and stroke it with your left hand. Definitely on the scruff of the neck. Such affection will strengthen the energetic connection with the cat and provide protection.

According to popular beliefs, a furry pet, being an assistant to a brownie, helps protect the home from evil forces, wards off envious people and negative influences, and brings peace, wealth and prosperity.
Pets subtly sense the energy of their home. When a cat leaves the house of its own free will, it is not good:
There is no point in forcibly restraining a proud, freedom-loving nature, but you can try to bring it back. Calling your pet loudly and asking for forgiveness, they leave a bowl of milk and favorite food at the front door.
The offended or spree fugitive has returned? Great news: the family has avoided troubles and sorrows, cheerful and happy news awaits the family.
If month after month passes and your pet does not return, do not torment yourself. Mentally thank the cat for his faithful service and joyful time spent together.
