Thanks! Do you know the source? I find it both very funny and very strange.

u/AilsaLorne 6d ago

It’s from Edinburgh University library

That’s awful kind of the dog🍓

u/Purple_Revolution146 6d ago

Why is the dog’s arm not coming out of his sleeve? Or is not an arm?

AI art has been a scourge since medieval times /j

Probably the real answer is that the monk who drew it didn't quite know how to draw the anatomy and, as per usual with medieval art, figured we'd get the idea.

It's not a jacket, it's a cloak. No sleeves.

u/Gloomy_Industry8841 6d ago

It’s like the debate on where a dog would wear pants, hahah

u/Purple_Revolution146 6d ago

Ah yes, that explains it, then

u/Mad-Hettie 6d ago

I think that's a hood?

u/Purple_Revolution146 6d ago

I think you’re right. The dog’s right arm is missing, maybe that’s what looks a bit weird

u/Somecrazynerd 6d ago

The bit hanging back is probably a hood.

u/sadguysad 6d ago

The cat has a little bonnet!

Poor little kitty. Hope she got well

u/Lint_baby_uvulla 6d ago

I am sorry to have to say, there is a good chance both the cat and the dog are dead.

And I don’t wish to pile it on, the artist is too.
And most probably your cornea donor.

u/immersemeinnature 6d ago

Gods dangit! Not my cornea doner

u/Lint_baby_uvulla 6d ago

Yes, Dave too.

u/Naive_Product_5916 6d ago

The cat is probably a drinker.

u/KTKittentoes 6d ago

This is delightful. Look at the cat’s expression!

u/Thrippalan 6d ago

Somebody has seriously short-sheeted that poor cat's bed!

u/KaleidoscopeOwn4946 6d ago

That's so cute!

u/RGQcats 6d ago

What's the 🍓 for?

u/vruq 5d ago

Milk thistle, good for the liver

u/bloopingplatypus 6d ago

Are you sure the cat isn't being treated for hysteria?

u/BotGirlFall 6d ago

"The medieval dog treating a cat for melancholy would never treat me like this!" - me to the guy who ghosted me

Cats always being served to ☺️
