⚪ Real? Egal. Lustig!... ein
Lieblingsfoto.
🟤 Real? Anyway. Funny!... a
favorite photo.
📷 by Artist: #AdamShon in Loc.: #Boston USA 🇺🇸 - Title: untitled - #Art #PhotoArt #Artist #Cats #FunArt #Pets #Fotografie #Photography

Photography. A funny color photo with two cats in a, let's say... embarrassing situation. The photo shows two beige cats on a wooden table in the corner of a room next to a telephone and a painting on the red wall. The cat on the right can be seen from the front and is looking somewhat grimly into the camera. The cat on the left can only be seen from behind and with its tail raised. And therein lies the problem. The cross-eyed right cat is holding its paw protectively in front of the other cat's butt hole (sorry). I don't know if and how the photo has been edited, but it's hilarious.
