🐱 #InternationalCatDay is the puuurfect time to share the story of this cheeky kitty. 😸 Who hasn’t spotted human-like behaviour in their cats? Artists certainly have and there are countless images of cats behaving more like people than animals. Illustrators and cartoonists like the great English cat master Louis Wain, have used cats for everything from satire and politics, to the exuberant and fun. 😼 Wain observed people closely and then drew them as cats, making parodies of quirky human nature while also giving them cat-like behaviour and character. Wain loved cats above all other creatures so much so that he was the President of the National Cat Club in England. #NGV #CatDay #WorldCatDay #InternationalCatDay2022 #CatsofInstagram #CatLovers #Catgram #MeowMonday • Louis Wain We won't go home till morning (detail) National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne Purchased, 1935
