Other than its adorable cat installations, Paw-verbs on the Lawn focuses on figures of speech in the Malay language that refer to felines. Some examples are: “Malu-malu kucing” (like a shy cat), and “serta lalu kucing, tikus tidak berdecit” (when the cat is around, the mouse will not squeak).

These phrases and their explanations are printed out onto signboards scattered across the grass lawn outside the Malay Heritage Centre, along with 30 cat illustration standees by Juno from Mofusand.
