There is a story that pops up occasionally about a cat that learned to "pay" for food from a local fish shop. I'm fairly sure this was the picture from that story.

He apparently noticed people giving the store owner money and getting fish in return. The cat showed up one day with a leaf, hopped up on the counter and dropped it by the shop owner.

The shop owner happily accepted the payment and gave him a small bit of fish, and from that point on, the cat would show up almost daily with a leaf to get a piece of fish. It's a awesome story 😊❤️
