When a stranger’s cat enters your home: what do folk omens say about it?

Much can be revealed through an animal’s behavior.

Folk beliefs associated with cats are not only related to the weather. There are also interesting interpretations when a cat enters a home. For example, in Greece, cats were welcomed with joy, while in Rome, they are considered a symbol of freedom. Among the Slavic people, cats are also seen as symbolic animals.

What should you do when an animal comes to your house as a guest?

You should provide shelter or at least feed and pet the cat. In any case, the fact that it has come is a good omen. When a cat comes to a house where someone is ill, it heralds positive changes, especially if the cat is white.
