Why do the older generation say cats are unlucky animals?

In fact, there are two ways to say this. The first way is that pigs come to be poor, dogs come to be rich, and cats come to open pawn shops. The second way of saying it: pigs come to be poor, dogs come to be rich, and cats come to cover with white cloth. "Pigs come poor, dogs come rich", the explanation is easy to understand, but "cats come to cover white cloth" is unlucky! Pigs only eat, but they don't work for their families. They have to take care of three meals a day and eat from poor families. Dogs are experts in housekeeping. They can keep money and catch thieves. And the dog is rich in soil, which also represents wealth.

Dogs are mankind's most loyal friends who share weal and woe As the saying goes, "A son doesn't think his mother is ugly, and a dog doesn't think his family is poor." Dogs have always been regarded as auspicious animals. The dog's bark is "Wang", which means auspiciousness and is a precursor to wealth. The homonym of a cat's meow is "extinction", "absence" and "mildew", so it is considered unlucky for a cat to come. Therefore, people also like the taboo of adopting uninvited dogs instead of uninvited cats.

The reason why cats are unlucky among the people.

Cats are nocturnal animals. They often doze off during the day, but they are full of energy at night. Farmers are sleeping at night, but cats will get up to catch mice at this time, and at night they will make a lot of strange noises, which makes people very uncomfortable, especially those sounds like babies.

This will affect people's normal rest. In addition, there are many rats in the countryside. Cats eat mice, which will bring a lot of germs and may infect people. If you don't get enough sleep and rest at night, it will affect your health. Besides, cats that eat mice are dirty, which means bad luck. Most old people will not adopt stray cats when they see them. If they run home, they will invite them out.
