Original – A large Ragdoll cat has caught a mouse and now victimizes it for sport before devouring it.
Reason
This picture of a ragdoll cat hunting a mouse, which is used in the article House mouse to illustrate the predation of house mice by domestic cats, is a technically impressive shot of an uncommonly seen moment. The clarity of this image, which depicts the mouse's body suspended in midair as the cat throws it, is the most impressive technical aspect considering the capture of this moment in motion, and this aids the picture's memorable qualities. As such, I think this is an unusually exemplary photo which is worth featuring.
