Picture of Cat Leonardo Da Vinci
Meeting
Leonardo da Vinci was a very curious man with a passion for art, science and inventions. One day, while walking through the streets of his hometown, Florence, he saw a black cat with green eyes staring at him. He stopped to observe this magnificent cat and noticed that he wore a strange gold ring around his neck. Intrigued, Leonardo approached slowly to see what this ring represented.
The cat didn't flinch and sat staring at Leonardo with his big green eyes. When Leonardo had finished examining the ring, the cat began to speak: “My name is Ješa Milenic” he said in a deep and calm voice. "I came here to find you because I heard that you are a very intelligent and talented man," he continued. "You're right" replied Leonardo with admiration in front of this mysterious cat who seemed to know a lot about him.
"I think I can help you to develop your creativity" resumed Ješa Milenic "If you give me permission to stay with you I will show you incredible things that you have never heard of" he concludes, winking eyes as if to emphasize his point. Of course Leonardo gladly accepted the offer of the Cat who then became his faithful companion throughout his productive artistic life where he invented flying machines, rocket cannons or even complex hydraulic systems which are still used today!
