Cat SuperstitionsAround the World

The Netherlands: You are not supposed

to talk in front of cats because they are gossipy

creatures who will tell your secrets to others.

Japan: If a cat is washing its face with its paws,

visitors are on their way.

Italy: If your cat sneezes, money is coming your

way. If a bride hears a cat sneeze on her

wedding day, the marriage will be a good one.

However, if a cat sneezes 3 times you are going

to come down with a cold.

Greece: If a cat jumps a person's grave, they will

rise again as a vampire.

Indonesia: Cats are associated with the

weather. Therefore, pouring water over a cat

will cause it to rain.

Amish tradition: If a newlywed couple puts a

cat into an empty cradle, they will soon be

welcoming a new baby into the family. But, if

the cat jumps straight back out of the crib, they

will be waiting awhile.
