西方各國有關貓的迷信

西方人普遍認為黑貓是不吉利的，原因有可能是黑貓與傳說中的巫婆有關（巫婆是一個面目可憎、氣勢洶洶的老太婆，她頭戴黑氈帽，懷抱一只大黑貓，騎著一把飛帚）。由于黑貓總是不離巫婆左右，所以它被視為不吉利的象征。傳說中的黑貓有九個靈魂，巫婆具有變九次黑貓的魔法，殺死一只黑貓，她還可以變八次（所以英語中諺語：A cat has nine lives，即貓有九命），可泛指某人或某物的生命力很強。在西方，黑貓走過的路人走了就會有厄運降臨，或如果你看見黑貓從你面前穿過，你就要倒霉。除了有黑貓不吉利的迷信之外，還有關于貓的其他迷信。如果貓靜靜地在人身邊坐著，那意味著平平安安，順順當當；如果貓在人身上蹭來蹭去，那意味著這個人將有好運氣；如果貓跳到人的腿上，那意味著吉星高照，官運、財運亨通；如果貓從人身邊跑開，那意味著他的秘密將很快被泄露。萬圣節黑貓還會被一些人以血腥的方法殺掉，或燒死來完成某些迷信活動。無家可歸的黑貓也不能得到善待，黑貓似乎沒人敢養。但也不全然這樣, 請看下面各國關于貓的迷信：
