Louis Wain Fact #57:
As Wain’s reputation as the Victorian “cat person” grew, he started to become inundated with stray cats and unwanted kittens placed into his care. He apparently had “so many cats that their kittens left the house and took up residence in the garden, becoming quite wild and snarling and spitting at visitors who walked up the path.”

Even the very cats and dogs sketched here (by Louis Wain in the Sunday Strand) did; whether they (and you) keep them remains to be seen. Most New Year resolutions are like pie crust-made to be broken.
