First Mate

First Mate was a cat owned by Captain Jim Boyd, operator of the lighthouse at Four Winds Point. First Mate was taken in by the Blythe family when Captain Jim died.

Early Life
First Mate was owned by "one of those summer people", who had taken him in during the summer, and then left the poor cat. Alone in the world, First Mate prowled about for quite a while, before getting caught on a tree branch by a ribbon on his neck. Captain Jim, on a walk, found the kitten, near death. The good captain took him in, and called him First Mate.

Life at Four Winds Point
First Mate's life at Four Winds Point was extremely enjoyable. Taken care of well, he prowled and purred, as all good cats should. Captain Jim, Anne, Gilbert, Leslie and Kenneth all loved the First Mate.
