Cat

cat, originally known as Cat Looking at Mouse in Mousehole, is a user account picture included in Windows XP, licensed from Corbis. It was taken by Aaron Horowitz. It depicts a tabby cat looking at a mouse through a mousehole, although it is not possible to make out that a mouse is in the cat's eyes in the version included in XP due to its low resolution. There is also a shot that is a portrait of the cat's face without the mousehole, with the same mouse present in both eyes, along with one of the same cat staring at a goldfish in a bowl. While the shot used in XP is royalty free, both of those shots were rights-managed, until they were converted to royalty free on Getty Images in 2020.
