Royal Navy pets, mousing and morale without formal ranks

Royal Navy ship's cats and dogs are contrasted with animals awarded ranks by other formations, with mousing and morale as their informal roles.

Notes

Royal Navy pets normally remain the ship's cat or dog without a formal rank. Other formations are contrasted as awarding ranks to their animals. Mousing is the practical task expected of a cat. The dog's designation as a morale officer is an informal panel joke.
