About the Design
This design offers a witty twist on the famous Pavlovian experiment, depicting a distinguished Ivan Pavlov attempting to condition an unamused cat with a bell. The feline subject, however, is too busy grooming itself to be bothered, highlighting cats' notorious independence.
What the Phrase Means
The phrase "Little Known Failure: Pavlov's Cat" humorously suggests that if Pavlov had tried his conditioning experiments on a cat, the outcome would have been quite different and largely unsuccessful. It plays on the cat's self-possessed nature, contrasting it with the dogs known for their conditioned responses.
