Illustration Friday: "Fat"

So I came upon this sight while walking around my neighborhood yesterday....

Two twins (they often come in pairs, I'm told), being pushed down the sidewalk very slowly in their double-wide stroller by their understandably exhausted-looking babysitter. Keeping pace just ahead of them, coincidentally, was a fat fluffy grey cat -- and the twins were ecstatic. Creepily and twinnily they took turns crowing "Meow!", reaching their grabby toddler paws towards it.

And the fat cat, as cats often do, totally ignored them.

Fat cats have an attitude all their own. At first, I thought the subject was that your twins wanted to eat him! Hee hee

This is a great drawing, and story! Have you ever seen 'The Cat Returns'? It is an anime, and that cat reminds me of Muta :o)
