Anthropomorphism Carve Carving Cats Cutlery Cutout Dinner Ginger Humanised Hungry Kitten Kittens Napkin Napkins Plates Poultry Roast Tabby
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming and humorous Victorian-era image of five cats and a dog gathered around a festive table for their Christmas dinner. The cats, each with distinct personalities, are seen enjoying their meal with great delight. A tabby cat licks his paws contentedly, while a ginger cat gazes intently at his plate, as if savoring every bite. Two kittens playfully paw at napkins, their ears perked up with curiosity. In contrast, the dog sits patiently, watching the cats hungrily, with a hopeful expression on his face. The scene is set with a beautifully carved turkey and roast poultry at the center of the table, surrounded by plates, cutlery, and napkins. The cats and dog seem to have been given the human treatment, with the tablecloth, plates, and cutlery all adding to the anthropomorphic and comic touch. This delightful cutout Christmas card, circa 1890s, is a testament to the enduring charm of animals in holiday celebrations and the sense of humor and human connection they bring to our lives.
