We all know that my annual "favourite things" list makes a huge splash and influences trends and markets around the world, and while it does not come out until January, I'll give you a preview today with one of my favourite things for next year:
Library cats!
These furry kitties are taking over libraries,supervising humans, and winning hearts. Here I present the past and future of library cats. Be sure to look out for the full article in the new year!
1. Dewey Readmore Books
This library cat was put in the book return at the Spencer Public Library in 1988 and the library decided to adopt him. He since became a crucial staff member and author of several books. He died several days after his 19th birthday in 2006, but his memory lives on forever in our hearts.
2. Cinnamon One current library cat who is shaking things up with his love for historical literature is Genovia Library's own Cinnamon. He resides in the YA section and is much loved and inspirational to all the patrons. I'm so tempted to steal him, but I know his orange coat would totally clash with my almost exclusively pink wardrobe. If there's one new hero blazing a trail for future library cats, it's Cinnamon. Watch out for new and exciting things in his career in 2012!
There's a small taste for you. Be sure to check out my favourite things list coming this January. Send me pictures of your local library cat with a small write up and the cat may be featured in my list!

ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you brought this up! So few people take this important issue into consideration when choosing a pet!
