Focusing on the role of domestic pets within the Victorian family structure, this book explores their relationships with household members, including heads of the family, children, and marginalized figures such as orphans and same-sex couples. By integrating animal studies and queer theory, it reveals how pets serve as a lens to understand and challenge normative family dynamics and societal roles during the Victorian era.
