Hey, cats, look here, you prophet Zarathustra’s speaking!

Hey, humans, have you seen before animal paintings by Lombard school, Italy? Some of them depict cats and We were asked why Zarathustra, the time-travelling cat, was not seen in them
Today We reveal one of the Lombard school painting featuring Our precious self, teaching other cats how to catch mice in a right way:

Recently one similar looking painting, but with the owl instead of Us (what a shame!), was sold at Sotheby’s to some lucky collector:
