Bondage Kitty says, “BDSM, taboo? It’s the 1930’s for crying out loud!”
Vintage Valentines Day card from Page of Bats. (You should definitely have a look-see at the rest of them—innuendo and borderline offensive sentiment in Hallmark cards apparently only became nonstandard in American culture’s last few over-sexed and “politically correct” decades.)

Louis Wain was an artist popular in the late 1800s and early 1900s for his drawings and paintings of cats. It… was a different time. This psychedelic abstraction is presumably symptomatic of his severe schizophrenia, as his pre-diagnosis cat renderings tended to look more like this. Some folks speculate that the onset of Wain’s schizophrenia was precipitated by toxoplasmosis, a parasitic infection that can be contracted from cats. Isn’t it ironic. Don’thcha think?
