Tales from Catland, for Little Kittens by an Old Tabby (1852)

Collection of stories about cats for children, first published in 1852. According to Wikipedia the author's name (Grimalkin) means "an old or evil-looking female cat. The term stems from "grey" (the color) plus "malkin", an archaic term for a cat, derived from a hypocoristic form of the female name Maud. Scottish legend makes reference to the grimalkin as a faery cat which dwells in the highlands."
