Lieutenant Commander R H Palmer OBE, RNVR plays with Peebles, the ship's cat, on board HMS WESTERN ISLES, Tobermory, Mull. According to the original caption, Peebles is very clever and shakes the hands of strangers when they enter the wardroom. Here he is 'jumping through the hoop' made by Lt Cdr Palmer's arms.
