Louis Wain Fact #24:
Louis Wain’s kaleidoscope cats were being made at the same time as perfectly normal illustrations. The infamous sequence depicting his “decline” that first gained infamy in the 1960s is made entirely of undated artwork that was likely illustrated in a completely separate order.

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.
