"Katso kissanpentua: se säpsähtää,
kyyristyy,
venyttelee, tassuillaan sätkii ja syöksyy –
tiikerinloikalla puolimatkaan,
kunnes kohtaa saaliinsa."
***************
In the watercolor painting, a cat sees its reflection and gets startled. The fur on its back stands on end. The artist is Sarah Maycock, and the back of the card features William Wordsworth’s poem "The Kitten Playing":
"See the kitten, how she starts,crouches, stretches, paws and darts
With a tiger-leap half way
Now she meets her coming prey."
