17th February - International Cat Day 🐈

Today in Poland (also in Italy) we celebrate International Cat Day.

International Cat Day is intended to emphasize the importance of cats in human life, to help free-living and homeless animals that once had a home but have lost it, as well as to sensitize people to the often difficult fate of cats.

Symbol of Fighting Poland, Kotwica ("Anchor") designed by me in 2017 from 2-colored square with 19x19 grid.

The kotwica was an emblem of the Polish Underground State and Armia Krajowa (AK; 'Home Army') used during World War II. It was designed by Anna Smoleńska (pseudonym Hania) - Polish student of art history at the University of Warsaw, and girl scout of the Szare Szeregi ("Gray Ranks").

The kotwica was first painted on walls in Warsaw on 20 March 1942 by Polish boy scouts, as a psychological warfare tactic against the occupying Germans.
