What a fascinating article Catherine, thanks for posting it. I hadn't seen this before.
It's amazing that cat took her kittens off the ship just before it set sail....
We do sometimes hear of people who just before a doomed flight, suddenly change their minds about travelling, or get suddenly taken ill, etc.
Clever cat!
It's tragic of course, about all those who perished, including the animals, but some made it, thanks to the ingenuity of their caretakers! That lady carrying her dog like a baby wrapped n a blanket was a good move! As they surely would have been barred from taking a dog on the lifeboat! (even a very small one like a Pom.)
