Louis Wain Fact #63:
While superstitions about cats were still quite common in the Victorian era, Wain’s own eccentric beliefs were purely his own. As a matter of fact, he rejected many of the beliefs commonly held by the public. In a 1901 interview with Great Thoughts he says “No, I do not think that because a cat washes her face it will necessarily be a fine day on the morrow. I think they do that merely to complete an electrical circuit.”

We are pouter pigeons - can't you hear us coo?
Fleet of wing are we. Tu whit, tu whit, tu whoo!
We can carry messages through the cloudy skies,
But we fear you like us best when made into pies.
