The Cats Paw, 1832. Creator: John Doyle
The Cats Paw, 1832. Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Perigord, French ambassador to the United Kingdom, grapples with British prime minister Lord Palmerston, depicted as a cat. Talleyrand, who appears to have a rats tail, holds the cats paw over a hot stove, with the words Belgium and Antwerp written on hot coals. To make a cats paw of someone means to use them as a tool or instrument to accomplish ones purpose. Satirical cartoon by H.B. (John Doyle). [Thomas McLean, London, 1832]
