Visitor caption # 14

Hello and apologies for the short break in uploading object labels written by visitors to the Louis Wain exhibition. Never fear though, because our visitors have been extremely busy and we have plenty of excellent captions to share. The author of this week’s caption has obviously studied the mannerisms of cats before… Did you know that ears are great indicators of  how a cat is feeling – relaxed, alert, agitated, defensive, or aggressive – and with between 20 and 30 muscles in them, they can rotate independently up to 180 degrees!?

Visitor caption: Everyone loves me? The turned back ears suggest a degree of uncertainty.

 

I am happy because everyone loves me, by Louis Wain. On loan from Bethlem Art and History Collections Trust.
