EDITORS COMMENTS
In this late 19th century image from Mary Evans Picture Library, a tabby cat dons an elaborate Victorian-inspired outfit, adding a whimsical touch to the era's humanitarian spirit. The Salvation Army tabby cat, as it is playfully titled, is a charming example of anthropomorphism - the attribution of human characteristics and emotions to animals. The cat's outfit is reminiscent of the fashionable attire worn by women during the Victorian era. It includes a voluminous, high-necked dress adorned with intricate lace and ribbons, a bonnet with a large, floppy brim, and a long, flowing apron. The cat's expression is serious, as if it is earnestly participating in the charitable work of the Salvation Army. The Salvation Army, founded in 1865, was a Christian evangelical organization dedicated to helping the poor, destitute, and marginalized members of society. Its members, known as Salvationists, were often seen in public wearing distinctive uniforms and carrying a "War Cry," the organization's newspaper. This image of a cat in Salvation Army attire adds a delightful twist to the organization's history, showcasing the humanized animal as a symbol of compassion and care. The source of this image is a scrap from a magazine or newspaper, further emphasizing its ephemeral nature and the popular appeal of anthropomorphic representations during the Victorian era. This photograph is a captivating reminder of the enduring allure of animals dressed in human clothing and the role that anthropomorphism plays in our cultural imagination.
