ArtistA lively mafia-parody scene of many cats gathered around a large poker table in a smoky, candlelit backroom. At the center sits the “Don Cat” – a massive grey tomcat in a pinstripe suit, paws resting on a mountain of chips, pretending to be calm while his tail betrays nervous twitches. Around the table at least seven very different cats create chaotic energy: a sleek black cat femme fatale with red collar, a one-eyed alley veteran chewing a matchstick, a fluffy persian acting innocent while clearly cheating, a jittery ginger rookie holding far too many cards, and a skinny sphynx lawyer taking notes on a tiny notepad. Humorous side action everywhere: a kitten waitress balancing a tray of sardines like champagne, two street cats arguing loudly over the rules, a fat tabby asleep on the chip box, a bulldog bouncer visible through the door looking confused, a parrot on a coat rack repeating “all in!” at the worst moments. Hidden details: an ace reflected in a spilled milk glass, claw marks carved into the table reading “Tony was here,” a fish in a bowl wearing a tiny fedora, a calendar with “Protection Tuna Day,” a suspicious cucumber under a chair like a forbidden weapon, a portrait on the wall where the painted cat seems to wink. Painterly realism, film-noir lighting, rich textures, organized chaos, expressive feline faces, gangster-comedy storytelling.

In the center, a large gray tabby cat, dressed in a black pinstripe suit with a necktie and a red rose lapel pin, is playing poker with a stack of chips in front of him. To his left, a black cat with a red collar and gold charm smokes a cigarette with a holder, and next to him, a brown tabby with striking green eyes also smokes a cigarette, holding a hand of red playing cards. To the right of the central gray cat, a small grey tabby cat in a maid's uniform serves a can of sardines on a tray, and beside her, a brown cat with bristly fur reads a book titled "RULEOK," looking disgruntled. Further right, a hairless Sphynx cat in a white shirt, black vest, and necktie diligently writes on a notepad with a pen.
