Queen Victoria had the longest reign of any
English monarch (1837–1901), but sadly she spent much of it mourning for her dear husband, the handsome and high-minded Albert. But she wasn’t without affection, and she continued to dote on the cats she and Albert had always adored. Her very special cat was White Heather, who outlived her famous mistress but continued to be a pampered resident of Buckingham Palace in London.
