    How many pets were on the titanic and how many were saved?

    I'm not sure how to post things so I might have put the question in the wrong place, sorry.

    Answered Titanic had a ship cat, is what I read. Is this true?

    Somewhere I read that Titanic had a ship cat, who had just given birth to kittens, and was being taken care of by a nice man, charged with caring for her and the little ones. I believe I came upon this information by googling "ship cats". The cat with her kittens went down with the ship. Is...

    Was there an 'animals procedure' if there was time?

    In 1912, was there any protocol about passengers' pets in case of an accident? Supposing a sinking ship had more than enough lifeboats for all on board AND lasted long enough for all humans to be evacuated to safety, would some crew then try and rescue the pet animals on board, assuming there...

    Dogs

    by the way, now that we are talking about the animals on the titanic, is anyone of you recognising this part of the Titanic? Deck? I don't recall to have ever seen large cargo winches at the cabin sites of the Titanic?

    Photo of dog in a Titanic lifeboat

    I can't believe what I appear to be seeing... Once again, in the same week as the wreck of a German U-boat being found at Titanic's last anchorage, I have to stress that I am not joking about this... I have a first generation picture of a Titanic lifeboat arriving at Carpathia, from an...

    Dog Breeds on the Titanic

    I thought I remembered reading somewhere a few years ago that there was a Chow Chow aboard the Titanic. Is this true? If so, to whom did it belong?

    Boxhall's dogs

    I think I read somewhere that he had a few dogs. If that's true does anyone know what kind they were and what their names were?

    George D Widener Hospital for Large Animals

    An interesting fact - the Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro was treated at the George D. Widener Hospital for Large Animals at the University of Pennsylvania. It made me wonder if it was founded by George Widener himself or his brother Joseph, who was a well known horse breeder. Can anyone tell...

    How Many Dogs Survived?

    I've ploughed through this web site. Maybe I have missed the answer to my question. Did any pets, especially dogs or cats, survive the sinking?

    Cats on the Titanic

    In reading Titanic Survivor, by John Maxtone-Graham, It was intersting to find out that the ships would carry a cat onboard. Jenny had presented the rest of the crew with a litter of kittens in April. This is the 1st I had ever heard of a cat onboard Titanic. Does anyone have any info on...

Since you all give great suggestions and input whenever I come here to ask a question, maybe you could help me out with this- Helen Bishop brought a small dog named Freu Freu aboard Titanic, but she left in on board during the sinking. Does anyone have any input on what type of dog it...

    Our Titanic Pets

    A while back we had a thread on animals aboard Titanic from the canary to the Gamin de Pycombe dog. I seem to remember Eva Hart telling me about a French bulldog she petted, and of course who has not heard of Kitty Astor the Airdale and the Myth of Rigel the Newfoundland-which I would like to...

    In the doghouse

    From the Astor's Airedale, Kitty to Robert W. Daniel's french bulldog, Gamon de Pycombe. From Sun Yat Sen to Frou Frou. From what I've read, heard, and seen there were several other passengers that brought their pets on board (and most, who lost them when the Titanic sank). Only two...

    First Class Dogs On Poop Deck

    Hello, Happy new year everyone! I was wondering about the dogs going bathroom on the Poop Deck. Im thinking that would be kind of uncomfortable going bathroom on wood. Also would they get a shovel and take the waste off the side of the ship? Also, is that why its called the Poop Deck? lol well...
