Animals: Cats: Mitzi, the cat being examined in the picture above
Animals: Cats: Mitzi, the cat being examined in the picture above, has been forced to regard herself as an undesirable alien. Though her home was the s.s. England, and though it was berthed in London Dock, Tower Hill, Mitzi could not come ashore for an important appointment with the stork. For quarantine regulations insisted that Mitzi should not bear her litter of kittens on British soil. But the cat was very ill. So the crew sent ans Os to the P.D.S.A. at Ilford. And, in the caesarian operation in progress, left, they saved Mitzi. But only one of her kittens survived. May 1952

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant print titled "Animals: Cats: Mitzi" we witness the heart-wrenching story of a cat who found herself trapped in an unfamiliar land. Mitzi, once a resident of the s. s. England, was unable to disembark due to strict quarantine regulations that forbade her from giving birth on British soil. As fate would have it, poor Mitzi fell gravely ill during this time of isolation. Fearing for her life and the lives of her unborn kittens, the compassionate crew members made a desperate plea for help to the P. D. S. A. at Ilford. With their expertise and dedication, they managed to save Mitzi's life through a risky caesarian operation. However, amidst this triumph over adversity, tragedy struck as only one precious kitten survived. Despite enduring such hardship and loss, Mitzi's resilience shines through in her unwavering determination to protect and nurture her surviving offspring. This photograph captures not only the medical intervention that saved Mitzi's life but also serves as a reminder of the countless animals who face similar challenges when crossing borders or encountering unforeseen circumstances beyond their control. Through its blend of humor and compassion, this image transports us back to May 1952—a time when even our feline friends faced bureaucratic hurdles—and invites us to reflect on our responsibility towards all creatures great and small.
