I have had 2 different cats come to my home. I have figured out when a black cat comes it means a man or some flirtation or dating will soon occur, the grey cat means opportunity or money will come my way. I just had an orange cat come into my yard. It lives across the street and has never come over. I have recently been worried about money, being alone etc. and last night this cat came, what does this mean

hi, ok so i always thought that black cats represented death and badluck,(until now ) so where i work, on the wknds its empty in the parking lot..and on my break time i go outside for a cigg. And 2x this black teen cat has come out of nowhere only in my presence..1st time it stared me down and came towards my car stopped, waited to see what i would do, i drove off scared it would cross my path, as soon as i drove off the cat left. 2nd time a week later spooked me.. i came out-parking lot empty, i went into my car for a min, came back out about 3 parking spots away the black cat is calmly sitting there just staring at me, didnt seemed threatened by me at all. sat there for 15min while i smoked, just staring at me while i stared back, then he just turned around and left. My life has been crazy and stressful for some time, but since the cat started coming around things in my life have come to a turning point, kinda like do or die so,(NOT LITERALLY)but now that i have seen your website i feel better about it, and actually hope to see the cat again, and come to think about it in the past black cats have always popped up when i come around..strange..makes me think about my reality.

I had recently found out that I was allergic to cats, dogs,.etc. I had a black cat at home that was the family cat. Due to my allergies I had to give him away. He was already 2 years old so we brought him to an Animal Center. There they told us that animals were never put to sleep, they were given 10 days of quarantine (to see their behavior), and they were given years of an opportunity to find an adopter. They gave us a code that my cat was now known as to them, so if we ever wanted to check up on him we could. Three weeks later we decided to call cause we wanted to know how he was adjusting. They let us know that he wasn’t letting them touch him and was aggressive so they had to put him to sleep after only 8 days. This was yesterday that I found out.

Now this is when it starts to get weird. About three weeks ago everyone in the household started to notice a black cat roaming about. At this point non of us knew that he has passed on. We all seen him doing exactly what my cat used to do. Climb on us at night, sleep on our beds, standing by the window,.etc. Now that we have found out what his destiny was, do you think its my cat that has found his way back home? Why does it mean that he is still around?

Since I moved to my new place I have been adopted by a stray grey cat. Of course I feed him and give him milk, mostly because I appreciate him being there. I live in a “scary” neighborhood and usually don’t go out much at night: however, the garbage dumpster is a block away. When I take the garbage whether it is day or night, he walks with me to the dumpster and back. He is waiting for me when I get home and greets me in the morning. I do not let him in the house because of fleas, etc. but our bond has become very close. Last night when walking to the dumpster I heard a scamper behind me and there he came, running to catch up. A few seconds later I smelled a very, very strong odor of roses. It only lasted a few moments. I looked around in the dark but there was nothing near… only the dumpster and the freeway with its noise and exhaust.

This is all very interesting. I myself have never viewed black cats as bad luck. A few weeks ago my grandmother passed away and I had to travel back home for the funeral. My husband told me that while I was away a black cat started appearing in the tree next to my bedroom window at night…everynight. WHen I got back I thought it would go away but it has been in that tree every night since my grandma died. Last night I woke up and there it was lloking into my window and appearedd to be watching me sleep. It will wait till I go to work in the morning and if I come late at night will be waiting for me by that tree. Any ideas? It may just be a

I searched this site because I have just came out of a dream where I obtained 3 cats. I new that there could be symbolism behind animal dreams so I looked up the meaning on this site. After reading the comments on this page I have goosebumps, because I am getting married in 3 days! I just thought it appropriate to share this with you!

Pls could you advise

I have a black cat with 4 white paws that keeps coming to my house and even sometimes enters as if she lived here. She seems to be acustomed to people as i have touched her and taken her out at times, but i have been told that it is not auspicious. especially a black cat with white paws.

Other cats are fine

BTW
I have always liked cats and had them since i was a child, I now have a white cat with brown patches which I accepted from neighbours whom were going to put him down when they moved house, and a ginger kitten which i found in a dustbin in the city. unfortunatley they dont get along too well but i think it will take time.

pls advise

I believe phenomenon such as these take place to do the very thing you are doing now: Question.

Perhaps that is the only purpose for these events – to make you question your own reality.

Animals come to us for reasons – what their reasons may be depends upon those they appear to.

In other words, I can only give you some general, foundational thoughts based on lore, or observation (as I have done in the above post). Ultimately you must ascribe your own interpretation to these events.

i have a question that i haven’t been able to answer..

what does it mean, if you desperately attempt to dodge a black cat whilst driving and it intentionally runs back towards your car, you hit it with three tires, and the last two bring the car completely up off the ground.. and when you go back to see if the cat’s dead, its nowhere in sight.. so you spend 45 minutes looking for any trace that it actually happened with the person who was in the passenger seat, and no sign on the road or on your car, including checking the inside of the car rims and engine..

then not the next day, but the day after that approx around the same time [3-4am] you venture out to your car to grab your wallet and theres a black cat that appears to be the same size and age laying on your hood looking straight at you.. and you know its not your neighbor’s cat because no one in your development has a black cat?

is that some sort of sign of protection or warning? i feel uncomfortable, and im always looking behind me for another cat to appear in my house, or wake up with one looking at me.. i’d really like your input
