Irresistible Temptation
Do you know the worst temptation for a general cat lover? Of course, it is to adopt another cat!
Salvador Dali, The Irresistible Temptation of St. Anthony
Do you think St.Anthony could resist adopting 5 ginger kitties, 3 elephants, and one naked lady?

Who can resist the plump ginger walking high in the sky?
Please notice that it is the presence of large orange cats that makes this company irresistible!
Just compare “The Irresistible Temptation” to the resistible one, to be found at the collection of Musée Royaux des Beaux-Arts, Brussels, Belgium:
Salvador Dali, The Temptation of St. Anthony, the one he could resist.
You would say, “ok, having seen these charming kitties, he should adopt all these stray animals, but a naked lady! no way!”
But what if the poor thing was in trouble and had just nothing to wear?
We kindly think that it is better to presume good intentions in humans, though it is not always worthwhile, and the adoption of a human is a much more hard job than an adoption of a cat, that never has evil intentions.
That means you should never resist your temptation to adopt another feline!
Thus speaks Zarathustra the Cat
