The images of animals found on the pages of works of art are numerous. The image of he-cat / she-cat refers to the universal images found in folklore and fiction of different linguistic cultures. In Russian linguistic culture (more broadly, in Slavic folk beliefs) this pet appears as a gender pair - a he-cat and a she-cat and is described as having both positive and negative qualities due to the stable archaic idea of the cat’s connection with both the human world and the other world, going back to antiquity.
