This kitten in Cochin, India, lived down by the fish market and this picture encapsulates his misery. Whenever he put his nose close to a fish the fishmonger would give him a swat or a kick. Born into this Dantesque world of torture, all he could do is longingly look at the fish in their bowls and tubs, so close but unattainable. I hoped at least that, at the end of the day, there were some unclaimed bits for him.
