Description

‘A Cat & Dog Life’ | Comic Illustration | 1904

This heart-warming print would be a wonderful display piece for anyone who shares their life with both cats and dogs. The tale of pilfered milk is narrated by the cat over five finely observed frames, and ends with the pair as firm friends. It comes from a scarce 1904 edition of Chatterbox, a weekly paper for older children founded in 1866 by John Erskine Clarke.

You see, he drank my milk, and I lost my temper, and –
Gave him a piece of my mind. Of course –
We parted in anger, but –
He begged my pardon and –
We are better friends than ever.
