Having watched all those adorable fluffy creatures, which make funny sounds when they can't reach their prey, let's learn an old Russian proverb:
• Видит око, да зуб неймёт.
[vi-dit o-ka, da zoop niy-myot]
SLT: The eye sees but the tooth can't get (it).
Око <- глаз (an eye)
Неймёт <- не достаёт (can't/don't reach)
Meaning:
The thing one strongly desires is or seems to be near, yet is not attainable. So near and yet so far.
