10 Famous Works of Art Made Better With Cats

Leonardo Di Vinci, Botticelli, Michelangelo…they all forgot something when they were creating their masterpieces – cats. Thankfully, Russian artist Svetlana Petrova, with help from her cat Zarathustra and a computer, are fixing their mistakes.

#3 – The Creation of cAt-dam

This kitty in Michelangelo’s work looks like he is trying to get away from God, rather than reach toward. He must have more devil in them than angel. (Image source: FatCatArt)

#4 – Cats are True Angels

But then again, here he is with Raphael’s angel wings, which fit him just fine. Maybe it depends on the day…  (Image source: FatCatArt)

The god of grapes, wine, and all around a vision of gluttony, preferring to lay around and be fed by others. Yup, Bacchus was a cat. (Image source: FatCatArt)

#6 – Napoleon Crossing the Alps

What cat does not have a Napoleon complex? World domination is definitely on every cat’s list. So Napoleon must have been a cat too. (Image source: FatCatArt)

#7 – The Whistler

We don’t know about you, but we always thought James Abbott McNeil’s painting was missing something. It was – a giant tabby cat. No wonder she never got up. (Image source: FatCatArt)

#8 – Portrait of an Unknown Woman and a Well-Known Cat

Argunov did not bother to tell us anything about the lady he painted. Maybe if she had been holding this sensational kitty, he would have. (Image source: FatCatArt)

#9 – The Persistence of Memory

Salvador Dali must have been thinking about cats when he did painted this. After all, cats are definitely the owners of time and memories. Who else can sleep 20 hours a day? (Image source: FatCatArt)

#10 – American Gothic. I can Has Cheeseburger?

While this man’s wife was nice in all in Grant Wood’s original masterpiece, maybe he would have smiled more if he owned a giant ginger cat instead. And had a cheeseburger. (Image source: FatCatArt)
