The Titanic Cats
Jenny the Titanic Cat was the ship's cat of the RMS Titanic and was originally adopted from her sister ship, the RMS Olympic. Jenny was employed as a rat catcher and gave birth to a litter of kittens shortly before the Titanic's maiden voyage in April 1912. She lived mainly in the galley, where the kitchen crew fed her leftover food.
Jenny's story is shrouded in legend. It is reported that she and her kittens lived near a kitchen worker named Jim, who lovingly cared for them. Unfortunately, there is no confirmed record of Jenny and her kittens surviving the disaster. Some rumors suggest that Jenny disembarked her kittens in Southampton shortly before departure, thus foreseeing the disaster, but this story remains unconfirmed.
