Over his 91 years, he shared his home with umpteen different pets, including owls, dogs, a mouse, and a goat. The Mexican painter Frida Kahlo had a difficult time with her health and her husband, but her dogs, birds, monkeys, and fawn (called Granizo) loved her without judgment. Several other artists, such as Andy Warhol and Gustav Klimt, had a number of petsusually independent catsthat wandered freely around their homes and studios, crumpling drawings and paintings to make themselves comfy beds. The American painter Jackson Pollock was often depressed, but as he made huge drip paintings, his dogs kept him company and made him feel happier.
