About this item
The Museum of Made Up Archaeology believes this to be the oldest depiction of a cat chasing a mouse. We like to think the mouse got away because we're soft. Our best made up guess is that it dates from C920BCE and was made in Anatolia, probably on that sticky out bit near the top. This is an original drawing, it is not a print. It is drawn on A4 300gm acid free paper using Staedtler pigment liner pens and artist quality acrylic paints. The black border is 175mm x130mm and the cup is 160mm x 90mm. It is supplied unframed.

What buyers say about Tiny Penguin
I'm delighted with this fun drawing! I've been a fan of Steve's work for years and I'm really enjoying this current round of his pen drawings. I love the theme of interpreting what one dog and his human get up to and as a rescuer of cats, this drawing had particular appeal for me. The details are wonderful and it makes me chuckle whenever I see it! My drawing arrived carefully packaged and ready to frame. I highly recommend Steve both as an artist and Folksy seller, and encourage everyone to follow and purchase a piece of his unique, wonderful art.
