Hello and welcome to Love for Cats, a heartfelt collection of art inspired by whiskers, paws, and all things feline.
I’m Pauleen Wainwright, an artist and lifelong cat lover who grew up in the beautiful countryside of Bakewell, Derbyshire — surrounded by rolling hills, farm animals, and the gentle rhythm of rural life. From a young age, I found magic in nature’s quiet moments and the comforting presence of animals, especially cats, who always seemed to know how to find a sunny spot (and my lap).

Over the years, my love for art and animals naturally came together. What began as simple sketches on the farm has grown into a creative journey celebrating the beauty, charm, and spirit of our feline friends. Every piece I create — from watercolor prints to digital designs — is filled with warmth, personality, and a touch of countryside nostalgia.

Love for Cats is more than just a shop — it’s a tribute to the unconditional love and joy that cats bring into our lives. Each design is inspired by real-life whiskers, paw prints, and heartfelt memories, created to bring a little more comfort and happiness into your home.

Thank you for visiting and supporting my small business.
From my heart (and studio) in Derbyshire to yours — may your days be filled with love, art, and a few purrs along the way.
