Otto Dix's "Cats" (1920) asks and answers important questions like "What if cats were enormous? Would they use city buildings as scratching posts? Would they try to attack and dethrone the moon from its midnight cathedra?"
A black and white linocut print numbered 29/30 titled 'Katzen' (Cats). The image shows several stylized cats in white against a black background, positioned around and on top of what appears to be a building structure. There are small cross and star-like marks scattered throughout, and geometric grid patterns in the background. The cats are depicted in a playful, abstract style, with curved lines suggesting their tails and movements.

A baby Asian elephant named Kirby. The elephant has its back legs splayed and is standing awkwardly, its eyes look like they are wide with terror, and its trunk is curled up. A close up of the previous image in this post of Kirby
