still life and cat

Here's two different versions of the same idea, the presumption, albeit rightly so, on the part of our small cat friend that he's more interesting than a floral still life painting.  I thought "still life and cat" was more apt than "still life with cat" as he is unable to remain still for long, as demonstrated in the second version.
