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.

Tragedy, Tabby, is not for you;
Comedy suits you down to the ground.
Better to purr like a merry crew
Than all cry "Mew!" with a dismal sound.
Up spake Grimalkin and he said "Nay!
Both cats and men have different views.
If I were allowed to choose the play,
Then I would vote for the Tragic mews."
