From the Nigel Jackson Tarot, the Nine of Coins; from the Wolf Pack, Fool:
This fellow enjoys the result of hard work and wisely managing his resources. What could be cozier than resting in front of a roaring fire with a furry companion after a busy day? There even seems to be a little 'extra' for a later splurge in the bag behind him. Yet no sooner has he put up his feet when his peace is disturbed. Perhaps he notices he forgot to cut extra firewood and will have none for the morning. Or maybe a neighbor in distress shows up and asks him for help. The Fool card shows a wolf ignoring a bear - he's perfectly happy where he is and doesn't want to sacrifice his comfort. But most of us know that if we go ahead and do what is needed, we'll feel better in the end. We might give up a bit of physical comfort, but the psychological pleasure and satisfaction will likely outweigh it.
