You'd think an article about the world's largest cat painting would include something like the painting's dimensions.

...ah.

If you click through, you find it's 1.9 x 2.6 meters. So 75" x 103".

6'3" x 8' 7"

Pretty big.

Purrfect. We got a cat a week and a half ago. I sent this link to my husband. I would retitle the work, "My Husband's Hellscape."

"I bought some more cats. Took a picture of or bedroom. Look how cute they are!"

Anyone with more than a cat or two is laying the foundation for a socially-isolated and grotesquely unsanitary old age. Fair warning.

Cats would kill you if they could. Maybe toy with you, keep you alive and hurt for their own pleasure, but eventually they'd kill you. If they could.

This painting discriminates against domestic shorthairs!

Anyone who has that many cats also sleeps with the bedroom door firmly closed, and also the door to the hallway that leads to the bedroom firmly closed.

$106.93 per square inch isn't too shabby. Not that anyone might actually wish to cut it up and sell it by the square inch, of course...

I thought it was a painting of the world's largest cat, which would be one of those 900lb lion-tiger crosses. They're ugly.

Think how much more it would have brought at auction if it had been painted on velvet.

Looks like my house. Freeman. If you have one cat, you will have more. They populate like tribbles.
