What does the sign say if cats don’t take root in the house?

Need for freedom

Not all cats crave to live in a calm and peaceful atmosphere next to loving and sometimes overly intrusive owners.

Among these proud animals there are many who prefer freedom to comfort. An energetic and inquisitive cat, confined within four walls, will feel sad from idleness. Especially if the owners are away most of the time, and after coming home they do not want to play with him.

If an adult cat was picked up on the street, where he felt quite comfortable, then life in a city apartment without access to fresh air will definitely not be to his liking.

Why cats don't live long in the house

The reasons why cats do not live in the house for a long time can be very different, ranging from hereditary diseases to external influences. The most common phenomena are considered to be perfumes, energy and the attitude of the owners.

Energy of good and evil

As you know, representatives of the cat family are very sensitive to the energy of places and people, as well as other entities inhabiting our world. They will not approach a bad person and will not want to stay in the house if there is something bad in it. So, it is quite natural that these animals will not live long in a house that is built in a bad place, or has something dark in its history.

Also, cats do not get along with those people who often make scandals, and generally show negative feelings towards others or towards themselves. Of course, up to a certain point, the animal tries to resolve the situation, especially if it sincerely loves the owner, and absorbs negative energy while living in the house with him. But, at some point, the animal’s capabilities are no longer enough, and then it either leaves or dies.

Cats and perfume

Another common reason why cats do not take root in an apartment is perfume. But you shouldn’t believe the claims that brownies are to blame for this . As you know, brownies are protective spirits, guardians of the hearth and well-being of the home. There is no need for such entities to harass a pet; it is contrary to their nature.

It’s a different matter if there’s something else in the apartment that both you and your pet may not like. In this case, you should take care to invite a specialist who will help get rid of the negative entity.

Only after cleaning the apartment can you have a kitten in the house.

Love and responsibility

As already mentioned, cats react sensitively not only to the energy of places, but also of people. Accordingly, they feel the love of their owners. But these mysterious creatures also sense other things, taking responsibility for their masters and their family.

So, the reason why a cat leaves home may be that he senses a future addition to the family and is making room for him.

A pet may leave the house to lead to trouble or illness. It is not uncommon for an animal to leave its owner, who was seriously ill, but recovered after the cat left.

Unpleasant housing energy

Esotericists believe that cats have a certain connection with the other world. They are able to see and feel what is inaccessible to human understanding.

For this reason, it is customary to let animals into a new home first, and to place a children’s bed in the place chosen by the cat.

If a pet feels unpleasant energy in a room, it will not want to live in it.

There are also several contradictory signs that explain a cat leaving home:

If a cat runs away from home, it means that some kind of misfortune will soon befall him. Until the death of one of the owners.
Misfortune really threatened the family, but the sensitive four-legged guard found out about it in time and took him away from the house.
The disappearance of a pet from a home in which there is a seriously ill person is considered an extremely bad sign. It is believed that his days are numbered. However, according to another version, the cat does not prophesy death, but takes it with it.
By leaving, the cat made room for someone else. The family is not expected to lose, but to be replenished.

How to avoid negative consequences

Popular signs and beliefs indicate that if cats die in a house or do not take root, this promises trouble for the owners. Perhaps a lot of negative energy has accumulated in the apartment, or envious enemies have damaged one of the family members. To protect yourself, you should try to accurately determine the reason for your pets leaving and eliminate it. It would be a good idea to go to church, sprinkle the corners of your home with holy water, while reading a prayer at the same time.

Additional measures will help you avoid losing your beloved pet - a collar with an address and phone number, regular trips to the veterinarian to check the cat’s health, or fashionable and convenient chips that can always be used to track the movements of your beloved purr.

When faced with the fact that cats do not take root in the house, you should not give up keeping pets or take your anger out on defenseless kittens. These animals do not mean anything bad, but, on the contrary, are considered a powerful amulet and always strive to protect their beloved owner. It is necessary to analyze the situation and identify what caused the cat to leave, and then eliminate the unfavorable factor and live calmly and happily with your furry pet.

Brownie

The most common version is that the brownie is playing pranks. From time immemorial there has been a belief that cats and brownies never get along. Simply put, a certain spirit is against the presence of these animals in the house and, therefore, tries in every possible way to drive them away or, even worse, to harm them.

There are countless tips for this problem on every mystical forum. And if you are not an ardent skeptic, then why not try them?

Popular wisdom advises simply making friends with the brownie. This can be done with the help of a kind of “bribe”, exemplary behavior and a request to save the life of the pet. You can find instructions on how to present a “tribute” to a brownie on the same forums.

However, it is worth noting that the problem may not only be with the brownie. Perhaps there are more serious “ill-wishers” in your home that you do not see. Spirits and clots of negative energy can also trigger the loss of a pet. But first things first.

Love for a pet

Animals become attached to their owners and respond with love to care. A person, due to his inertia or irresponsibility, is inclined to believe that there is no need to walk with a cat. But this is not true at all. In city conditions, cats are walked on a harness with a leash. This fact has its justification.

Cats without owner supervision face many troubles:

Keep in mind that they may fall under the wheels of passing vehicles.
She can be offended by bad kids who like to make fun of animals.
A cat can get into a dog's teeth.
He may get lost and lose his bearings and not return back.
Cats, both domestic and feral, control their territory. Your pet may become a victim of a battle for her.
Many cats from the private sector become victims of poisoning. Having caught a mouse poisoned with a special bait, he himself consumes the poison and dies.
How many neighbors hate any animals and try to harm them? Or chasing cats who got into the habit of their kitties. No one wants to ruin the potential kittens that their pet might bring.
Out of curiosity, a cat can go into someone else's metal garage and die there from hunger, being closed. After all, the owner has no idea that he has guests.
An animal can climb a tall tree and fall from a height, breaking its legs or spine.

It may be threatened by rodent traps.

Coldness of the owners

A cat is an independent creature, but just like people, it needs love and good treatment. If one of the family members treats the animal unworthy, the pet may simply run away or be constantly nervous. Sometimes the owner treats the cat well, but with noticeable coldness.

To avoid such a problem, talk with your loved ones and rethink your attitude towards the animal. If it seems to you that this is the whole point, contact with your pet will improve. Remember that the cat needs your care.

Historical reference

It is widely believed that cats were domesticated by the Egyptians.
It was refuted by an interesting discovery by scientists at the beginning of the 21st century: a burial dating back to 9500 BC was discovered in the Middle East. e., in which a cat was buried along with a man. Despite this discovery, the idea of a deep and long-standing connection between cats and the Egyptians still lingers in the mind. The ancestor of the pet is considered to be the steppe cat, which to this day lives in some areas of Africa, Asia, India and the Caucasus.

Over time, the genome of the steppe cat changed, resulting in the appearance of domestic cats. The first attempts to domesticate the steppe cat occurred around 10,000-9,000 BC. e. An interesting version is that the wild animal itself showed interest in humans.

Noticing that rodents often appeared near food, the cats came to the conclusion that it was better to be friends with people. Starting from 4000-3200 BC. e. cats began to spread everywhere, but given the fact that they are not big fans of traveling and changing their place of residence, we can conclude that there was human intervention in their settlement.

Nutritional balance

Many owners of cats and dogs can indiscriminately give food, and then suddenly - natural food: minced meat, bones for dogs, a piece of meat, fish. This is very harmful to your pets' digestive processes. For example, you gave dry food in the morning, and a piece of meat in the evening - in this case, food stress occurs in the pet, and the processes in the stomach begin to work incorrectly, causing diarrhea or constipation. When switching to natural food (or vice versa), it is worth starting to add pieces of meat to dry food - from minimum doses to maximum.

A healthy adult cat has passed away - what should I do?

If an unneutered pet left home, it is possible that he began to estrus and went in search of a partner for mating. Pregnant pets often leave to give birth to offspring in a calm environment. A pet can also leave home due to poor treatment or the addition of another animal to the family. What to do when a healthy adult pet runs away? How can I get it back?

Will the animal find its way home?

Cats are territorial animals. They always strive to return to their habitat. Lost pets usually find their way home on their own. They are helped in this by vision, smell, hearing and memory. With the help of a keen sense of smell, they are able to detect the smallest concentrations of odorous substances and determine the location of the source of the smell. The hearing aid in cats is designed in such a way that they perfectly remember not just a “video sequence,” but a full-fledged “video clip” with a sound track. Thanks to this ability, they can reproduce it in memory, finding their way home.

The easiest way for a free-range pet to return to its native land is because, unlike a pet, it is familiar with the area. There are many stories about cats returning to their owners, traveling hundreds or even thousands of kilometers. There are even cases where pets returned to their owners 5 years after they went missing. Scientists have not yet been able to figure out how they do this. Presumably, cats use an electromagnetic field to orient themselves in space. How exactly they capture radiation is unknown.

How long can you wait?

If a cat is lost and has never been outside the home, the search should begin immediately after the loss is discovered. An animal not accustomed to the street may run away out of fear in an unknown direction and get into trouble. The more time passes from the moment your four-legged pet left home, the less chance you have of finding it.

Don’t panic and search the entire yard if your pet, which is free to go outside, went for a walk a few minutes ago. You should start searching if the animal has not returned by the end of the day. It is advisable to begin the search operation before dusk, so that the cat does not have to spend the night in the open air, and its owners do not have to worry all night.

Where to look for a pet first?

To return a pet, sometimes it is enough to search the home. Perhaps the cat did not go somewhere beyond its boundaries, but simply hid, for example, under a sofa, closet, bathroom, behind a curtain, in a box, on a sideboard or in a pantry. Some tailed pranksters like to hide in the washing machine. If the animal was not found in the house, you need to look for it:

Under the windows. Perhaps your pet, while hunting for a bird or a sunbeam, fell from a balcony or window.
At the entrance. If a cat sneaks through a slightly open door, it can be found on the upper or lower floor.
In the attic, when there is easy access to it.
In an open basement where a frightened pet that had fallen out of a window could hide.
Under the cars. Frightened animals, once outside, look for secluded places.
On the nearby trees. To escape from dogs, passing cars, and aggressive relatives, they climb higher.
In neighboring areas. If a cat has disappeared from a private home, it may be hiding with neighbors.
In buildings located in the local area: in a garage, bathhouse, barn, woodshed.

If the missing tailed animal has not been discovered, you should not give up trying to find it. You should ask your neighbors if the cat has wandered into theirs. You also need to walk along the road, suddenly an animal trying to cross it is hit by a car, it lies on the side of the road, and it can still be saved.

Children love animals and are unlikely to let a well-groomed beautiful cat walk out of their sight. It is worth asking local children if they have seen the cat. It is necessary to name the special features of the pet.

You should try to look for your pet again when it gets a little dark and the bustle outside has died down. In the silence of the night, extraneous sounds will not drown out the owner’s call, and there is a high probability that the cat will respond to a familiar voice. In addition, in the dark, the animal can be given away by its glowing eyes. Grandmothers talking on a bench near the entrance, janitors, mothers with strollers - all these people can help in the search for a missing animal.

In a closed car for a long time

You should not leave your pet in a closed car for a long time. Many countries have already adopted a law that passers-by can break car windows if they see an animal there in order to quickly release it. We don’t have such laws yet, but no one is safe from stress or hypothermia (overheating).

Also, do not let your cat lie on the radiator. The cat himself may not experience any discomfort, since his receptors function differently from those of humans, but several hours spent on a battery can seriously undermine his health. If the animal does not want to leave its favorite place, place a towel or blanket folded several times on it.

How can you return what you lost?

The loss of a pet is a sad event when all available methods are used: advertisements on the Internet, hanging leaflets on poles and even going around nearby basements. Do not despair if all of the above methods did not bring a positive result. Folk omens will tell you how to find what is missing.

To return the cat, use simple rituals:

Take a new white candle that you haven't used yet. Light it and say the spell: “Smoke up the mountain, and (pet’s name) towards the house.” Place the cat's bowl nearby, pouring the animal's favorite treats into it. Wait until the candle burns out completely.
Pour milk or water into a saucer and place it by the door. Imagining your pet returning home, repeat the words three times: “To my house, to my doorstep.”
Use the help of a brownie. To do this, wait until the clock strikes 12 am, then go to the kitchen. After pouring milk into a bowl, respectfully ask the spirit to return the cat to its home safe and sound.

Orthodox Christians are advised to refrain from such actions. Believers can visit the temple and light a candle while praying for the safe return of the pet.

If the cat has left home, signs recommend taking a close look at the situation in the home and the relationships between family members. A pet appears in a person’s life for a specific purpose - to teach him to love, take care of others, and listen to his heart. Even if you are a skeptic and don’t believe in omens, think about the question of whether it was your behavior that forced the cat to leave the walls of its home.
