Swashbuckler 1700 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 (edited) We know that period ships had cats and dogs (for killing vermin and perhaps for company) but do we have any records of pirate ships having any? Forget the buccaneer's hunter dogs now but what about ship's dogs? And because of my love of pictures: A ship's cat there. Nothing special really Two dogs. The one with the periwig (Hogarth's satire) might be just captain's pet but the other might be a ship's dog (see how it is waiting to get food that is soon served).
