The cat holds a white mouse by the tail in its mouth, and it faces a small female figure wearing a black dog mask, which occupies the upper left-hand corner., Inside Every Fat Cat Is a Thin Cat Trying to Get Out; Claudia Cave; gouche; 25 x 25 inches; 1988, Cave combines humor and satire embodied in a cartoon-like drawing style to share her perspective on life and society.
