Teamwork Tuesday

In my library there is a nice big round window that overlooks the Fountain and the front of the building. This is where Angel Tober has been hanging out recently. It is also the window that my workers gaze out of when they are working the adult circulation desk and daydreaming monitoring the Outside.


Today there was a little tree frog in my window:


Naturally, I wanted to Eat him. Luckily for him, there was glass between the two of us, and he was up too high (on the second floor) for me to get to him and I couldn't talk anyone into getting the ladder out so I had to settle for window-shopping.

But he climbed high and I needed help to see:


So AAB Becki helped me. She gave me a Boost which is a very Important part of any Library worker's job description--Library Cat Booster.

But Becki's arms got tired. (This part I don't really understand, since I am a Picture of Feline Health and I am Maintaining a Healthy Weight. I think I will have to start the staff doing some weight training.) Then AAB Linda P. jumped in to assist Backi!!!!!


Linda P. is assisting Becki's weakening arms (maybe my muscles are heavy?), and that is why this post is Teamwork Tuesday.

(Shortly after this last photo was taken, I decided that I was bored and wanted a Temptations. So I jumped down.)

I hope the rest of the week is as exciting as this morning!

There is no "I" in Team (but there is one in Library Cat),

Tober

PS I am sorry Becki for thwapping you in the face with my Excited tail.

F.I.T. -- Feline in Training

I have decided to share some pictures of me working out and building my strong muscles.

Here I am attacking the mouse-string with my mancatly paws:


Here I am putting the bitey on the mouse-string. Notice that I very cleverly manage to do all of this training while lying on my side. In a comfy chair.


In this picture below I am burning HUGE amounts of treat-calories while swatting at the end of the string. I am giving the string a stare that says "I mean Business, String!"


Here I am looking Up because. . . well. . . that's where the string went. And since it's Up and I'm Down, we're at a bit of a standstill in my Training Activities.


Now, in this picture I am Very Disturbed because the intruder dot is ON MY ARM and that is really weird. How am I supposed to attack the dot when it is ON me? I can't bite at it because then I would bite my arm! That could hurt really badly seeing as how I have these super-strong and mancatly jaws.


Luckily I just had to glare at the dot for a while and it eventually got bored and went away.

One F.I.T. Feline,

Tober

My Exercise Routine.

Here is one of my many many exercise routines that I use to stay sleek and healthy and Handsome.

First, I hop under a desk that has a trashcan.

Second, I knock over the trashcan.

Third, I pull out any Posty-Notes that may be inside the trashcan.

nom nom nom
Fourth, I chew on the Posty-Notes because the are the best for chewing (after cords, that is).

Fifth, I nap and look adorable.

Simply irresistible.
For an even greater challenge, I like to stake out desks and steal the paper clips and Posty-Notes and other interesting things from desk drawers when they are opened! You may want to start with the trashcans, because staking out a desk can be quite Strenuous.

Most of my other routines involve a good deal of stretching.

Fit as a kitten,

Tober
