Portraits
There were 9 portraits of animals (bear, cat, dog, hamster, horse, lion, monkey, mouse, and tiger) on a wall of a museum. As I was studying them, I tripped and fell into the wall and they all fell down. I have to get them back up on the wall in the correct order before I get into some serious trouble. I only remember a couple of things about the order of the portraits. Can you help me figure out the order of the portraits using the clues I remember about them?
