We humans all have our own beliefs, and there is an Optina in Kozelisk, Russia Pustyn Monastery, which is said to be a building from the 15th century. It is said that the great Russian writer Dustoevsky was greatly influenced by this monastery. The character of his famous book "Karama Brothers" Elder Zosima is based on Optina. Elder Ambrosy in Pustyn Monastery was conceived for the blueprint.
In such a long-standing orthodox monastery, there is a group of super devout believers who follow the clergy to pray for blessings every day. They are the ten cats in the monastery!
