Of course the quintessential cat at sea was Matthew Flinders’ Trim. Read all about him here.

We loved this cartoon, so true!

Today it was so dark in the morning that it looked like night. The only cats willing to come out and play were the kittens Socks and Tommy. The others had to be pushed out of bed to clean the rooms. I don’t blame them, I would have stayed in bed too!

Here they are.
