EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming and humorous print captured by Stubbs in February 1962, we witness an unexpected twist of fate at the Police headquarters in Newcastle on Tyne. A stray cat, seeking shelter and perhaps a bit of mischief, found its way into the police drivers' rest room and surprised everyone by giving birth to a litter of adorable kittens. As time went on, these furry little bundles of joy became an integral part of the police officers' daily routine. The drivers have now grown accustomed to discovering tiny kittens curled up soundly in their hats and boots. It seems that even law enforcement can't resist the irresistible charm of these cute feline companions! The image perfectly captures the juxtaposition between the serious nature of police work with the unexpected delight brought about by these playful creatures. With handcuffs hanging nearby and a baton resting against a wall, it's clear that this is no ordinary family portrait. Dubbed as "puss in boots" due to their mischievous adventures within law enforcement gear, these kittens have undoubtedly brought smiles and laughter to all who encounter them. This photograph serves as a reminder that sometimes life surprises us with moments filled with innocence and joy – even within unlikely places like a bustling police station. Stubbs has masterfully frozen this delightful moment in time for us all to enjoy – showcasing not only his talent behind the lens but also capturing an endearing slice-of-life story from decades ago.
