Albert Schweitzer (1875–1965) had a beloved cat called Sizi. When writing at his desk, she often liked to curl up on his left arm – so rather than disturb her, the naturally left-handed Schweitzer struggled to write with his right hand. His quote, “There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats” is well-known.
