Rooster and cat.

Rooster and cat.

When moving into a new house, peasants first brought in both animals, depending on the place or stage of the ceremony, but usually the cat was the first to enter the hut itself.

The peasants believed that the loud crowing of a rooster could scare away evil spirits from a new home. The rooster also symbolized fire, sun and a new beginning.

It was believed that the first person who enters a new house takes on all the negativity or even the "first death" in the new space. In addition, people watched the cat's behavior, since the place where she went to sleep was considered the safest and most convenient for installing a bed or a crib.
