Just being extremely casual and normal. 19th century. bravefineart.com/products/19t...
Portion of a watercolor painting depicting a white medium haired cat sneaking in an open window onto a small table with a vase on flowers on it. The posture of the cat is extremely odd with its uncomfortably anthropomorphic face pressed back into its chest, forelegs that seem strangely short and attach to an unusually thick chest, tail straight up in the air, and one back leg splayed out awkwardly behind it. In the full picture you can see the cat is creeping toward a bird in a cage that is held by a sleeping lady.
