    My dog is direct opposite:

    • he likes to chase indoor cats, have no interest or rather feared of outdoor ones (for a good reason)

    • cue to go out is usually me putting on shoes, but if he sees a leash - he will refuse to cooperate and start pretending that he doesn’t want to walk until I snap it to the collar.

    Probably because I often walk with him without leash, but only right behind our house, there are almost no people walking there, except for other dog owners.

    Vampires are found independently in Africa, Asia, North and South America, India, Western and Eastern Europe, and especially in the Balkans. All these incarnations have common attributes of folkloric vampires, though their appearance and origins vary due to the cultural environment and the intent or purpose of the myth (i.e., social control). Thus, the vampire is not culturally specific, nor is it a particular phenomenon, but rather it is almost a universal explanation for the liminal state when coupled with its relatives. Each culture has created these mythical fiends as a way to explain folk hypothesis, thus individually perpetuating their existence.

    I guess it is a depiction of a miracle of resurrection. It could be saint Nicholas or similar to this story:

    One story tells how during a terrible famine, a malicious butcher lured three little children into his house, where he killed them, placing their remains in a barrel to cure, planning to sell them off as ham. Nicholas, visiting the region to care for the hungry, saw through the butcher’s lies and resurrected the pickled children by making the sign of the cross.
