Do you think that cat is finding truth? I think he is contemplating the fact that he can do anything and get away with it….oh wait…no that is someone else.
Its over my head too but basically the story goes that the master cut the cat in half. I also read that he did it symbolically with his hands so that is what I told the cat so he wouldn’t have nightmares. 🐱
He’s part of a family of cats that live in a large greenhouse. They sleep, eat some plants and go back to sleep. I had to wake him up for this portrait.

Pugs need hugs! And cats… or maybe Schopenhauer possessed him. Then hugs may not help.
Hope he is alive. Looks not so 😱

He’s alive and well, maybe a little tired from digging in the dirt, to find the places he got hurt.
