Hartley Quay - The Ship's Cat by Faith Bebbington

Faith created the 15ft long cat from approx 2,000 reclaimed plastic milk bottles collected by staff in the city’s Cunard Building and later cut up by hand by the artist and stitched onto chicken wire.

 

The Ships Cat is joined on the quayside by Super Rat (previously displayed in the Baltic Triangle) with two new baby rats created with local schools St Patrick's Primary and Childwall Academy.

 

Quote: She’s the maritime moggie with a tail to tell and is weighing anchor at the Albert Dock for the duration of the Tall Ships Regatta.
