Daytime photo of a striped tabby cat with beige, black, and white fur, lying comfortably on a net stretched over a small lettuce garden bed. The garden has young lettuce plants, and the net serves as a sunshade. In the background, there is a scenic farm view with trees, a pond, and green soybean fields under a clear blue sky. Pipoca, Meme's sibling, looks completely relaxed.
A closer look at Pipoca, the Cat, whose Brazilian Portuguese name means Popcorn, on the same scene described in the previous image.
