I recently posted about the cat man of Aleppo, Mohammed Alaa Aljaleel, Il Gattaro di Aleppo. This is one of his pets. Ernesto seems to be a very easy going lovable little cat who clearly appreciates his human. Recently Alaa, as he is called, went to Turkey where he received all sorts of cat toys, cat beds, and commercial cat food. This painting depicts Ernesto in his very own plush bed. This painting is being auctioned to raise money for a sanctuary for cats and orphans in Syria.
