soldiers and animals is a concept that I think is very interesting

iirc this cat liked to eat mice so they made the cat an official member and even gave them a bed
look at the happy little face!

Edit

actually I googled it and this cat got killed in service along with its entire ship, RIP little kitty 🫡

Convoy was the ship's cat aboard HMS Hermione. He was so named because of the number of times he accompanied the ship on convoy escort duties. Convoy was listed in the ship's book and provided with a full kit, including a tiny hammock in which he slept. He was killed along with 87 of his crew mates when Hermione was torpedoed and sunk on 16 June 1942 by German submarine U-205.
