Gorey had six cats. Perhaps five of them were camera-shy.

Their number fluctuated as old cats passed away and new kittens were thrust upon him. At the end he had 5 -- four recluses & a party animal. There's more -- including previously unpublished cat sketches -- in the "Arts and Cats" chapter of "The Theatrical Adventures of Edward Gorey: Rare Drawings, Scripts, and Stories" (Chronicle Books, Oct. 2024).
