Here we see that most tenacious of predators, the house tiger, as it attempts to bring down a goldibeast twice its size. After a fierce struggle with frequent pauses for grooming, the tiger prevails.

I wonder what the common cats are doing right now. Do they hunger for food, for justice, for the beauty that lies just beyond their feeble grasp? Or do they have, in their simple contentment, riches greater than I?
