[ Maitland / Cat and Dog ]


Julia Charlotte Maitland (1808 - 1864) was an English writer and educator.


Cat and Dog, or, Memoirs of Puss and the Captain recounts the adventures and travels of a dog and his cat friend. First published in 1854.

This brief children's tale, illustrated by the popular English illustrator Harrison Weir (who drew Newfs for several books) does not feature a Newfoundland, but rather "a fine setter, of a size that a Newfoundland dog could not despise, and a beauty that a Blenheim spaniel might envy."
