Why, yes, that 𝘪𝘴 a taxidermied cat on her head and that choker necklace does, indeed, read “PUSS.”

Miss Kate Fearing Strong, who author Henry James described as “youthful and precocious,” decided that this was the fit for the social event of 1883—the Vanderbilt Ball. Inspired by her nickname “Puss,” Strong’s costume consisted of not only a stuffed cat head, as seen in the image, but also seven cat tails sewn onto her skirt. 😬

During the mid-20th century, cats played an important role on ships as skilled rodent catchers. Sailors realized that having cats aboard helped control the population of rats and mice, which were notorious for damaging supplies and spreading diseases. These ship cats became valued members of the crew and were even given passports to acknowledge their contribution and ensure their safety during international travels.

The passports for ship cats were a unique and lighthearted tradition. While they didn't serve any legal or official purpose, they were created to recognize the cats' role and provide a form of identification. The passports typically consisted of a small booklet with pages that included the cat's name, description, and an area for their paw print.
