Ship's cat
Trim sailed on many ships commanded by Matthew Flinders during 1801-1803.  These ships' goals were to circumnavigate (sail all the way around) Australia, and also to create maps of its coastline. Trim became a favourite of the crew, and was the first cat to circumnavigate Australia. Trim stayed with Flinders until Trim's death.  A statue to Trim was later built in his honor.  It sits on a window sill on the outside of the State Library, in Sydney, Australia. There have also been many books written about Trim.
