Satirical print of an assortment of devoted animal enthusiasts with their favorite animal. The people are an eccentric assortment of odd-looking types themselves, the joke being that they have unconsciously chosen animals they tend to resemble -- a long-nosed woman is juxtaposed with a goat, an old woman asleep in a chair resembles the squinting, overfed cat on her lap, etc.
