They say that cats are not not glamorous beings, and fashion addicted young ladies prefer handbag dogs and other accessory beings as ermines. But this is not true! Look at the original version of the portrait of Cecilia Gallerani, who was the most glamorous lady of that time:ljcd7vxg21ycanhl6usnxlnqfhep69xh

At that day, after sumptuous dinner at the Duke Sforza palace, We meditated on luxury fasion and ermine mantles… Having noticed our glamourous mood, some ignoramus, who thought that the elegance of being depends on the price of its coat, painted an ermine over the Cat. But We and Our beloved sister Fee from Germany know that the true elegance is harmony and noble manners, and thecats are themostelegant beings on Earth8qu179nnorti14nklena7odu58v5p7cn

She smiled beacause We were there. Let you have on your knees 10 kilos of the immeasurable grandeur and have no smile.
Afterwards Leonardo reluctantly painted out Our image. He was  afraid of the reaction of the art criticists and gallerists who were normally treating the pictures with cats as not serious.
