西方人眼中的猫
猫在西方被称为巫婆的熟友，这起因与中世纪的迷信----撒旦（Satan） 魔鬼最喜欢化做一只黑猫，巫婆则常带这一只猫作为熟友相伴。这一 迷信源自于有关枷兰提亚（Galenthias）化作一只猫，成了魔术女神 海克提（Hecate）的女祭司（Priestess）。 1.在古罗马，猫是自由的象征，自由女神（the goddess of Liberty）常被 刻画成脚下伴着一只猫。猫之所以用以象征自由，是因为猫是热爱自 由的，没有什么动物像猫那样强烈地反对管制。 2.在古埃及，猫被认为是神圣的。象征着哺育生命的阳光巴斯特女神 （the goddess Bast）常被描绘成猫首人身，这大概是因为猫喜欢晒 太阳。公元前一世纪著名的希腊历史学家告诉我们，在埃及无论谁杀 死了一只猫，哪怕是因事故所致， 也要被处以死刑。 3.雄猫在苏格兰被称作“吉伯猫”（Gib cat），雌猫则被称作“多伊猫” （Doe cat）。猫也用来比喻恶毒的女人，如果你说的是恶言毒语， 人们会说你“猫一样的”（catty）

西方人眼中的猫
猫在西方被称为巫婆的熟友，这起因与中世纪的迷信----撒旦（Satan） 魔鬼最喜欢化做一只黑猫，巫婆则常带这一只猫作为熟友相伴。这一 迷信源自于有关枷兰提亚（Galenthias）化作一只猫，成了魔术女神 海克提（Hecate）的女祭司（Priestess）。 1.在古罗马，猫是自由的象征，自由女神（the goddess of Liberty）常被 刻画成脚下伴着一只猫。猫之所以用以象征自由，是因为猫是热爱自 由的，没有什么动物像猫那样强烈地反对管制。 2.在古埃及，猫被认为是神圣的。象征着哺育生命的阳光巴斯特女神 （the goddess Bast）常被描绘成猫首人身，这大概是因为猫喜欢晒 太阳。公元前一世纪著名的希腊历史学家告诉我们，在埃及无论谁杀 死了一只猫，哪怕是因事故所致， 也要被处以死刑。 3.雄猫在苏格兰被称作“吉伯猫”（Gib cat），雌猫则被称作“多伊猫” （Doe cat）。猫也用来比喻恶毒的女人，如果你说的是恶言毒语， 人们会说你“猫一样的”（catty）
