Boone County uses cats to keep courthouse clean

Two cats have free reign of a local courthouse and no one wants them gone. They are standing guard and keeping some unwanted guests away.

You no doubt have heard of bats in the belfry, but what about cats in the courthouse?

“I think it is a great idea, said Stacy Dempster. “I was shocked at first.”

Believe it.

And a cat won’t dig in the litter box and EAT the poop...like most dogs will (including mine).

Apparently you did not get the memo from Cat Central.:

All poop will be scooped immediately.

No nasty dog snouts in the catbox!

Thank you very much,
Your Cat

We had a cat in our food store, which was totally against the law. Any time a inspector came in there was a mad dash to put her outside for a while, to avoid detection.

Customers loved her so....usually the first words were: *Where’s JP?* They looked forward to saying hello to her.

We never had a rodent problem. Only inspector problems. :)

LOL! And I was going to ask if they had a cathouse in the courthouse.

A few granules of cat litter has to be better than the alternative on a $1.5K suit!

Yes they have, thanks. I was single and in my 20’s so it was sufficient for the time I needed it.

That’s wonderful. When I think back to my 20s, it’s a miracle I’m still alive to talk about it. That’s why I believe in Guardian Angels. :)

My Akita has zero odor unless he has gone for a swim in the river. Normally, he smells like a new fur coat. The river issue has nothing to do with a wet dog, either. It is the river, itself.

My cat, on the other hand, could blind you when she passes gas and occasionally we need a gas mask to change her clean litter after just one use.

I have noticed that multiple cat homes are often identifiable the moment the front door opens.

I will agree if the dog in question is a hound. I cannot abide their natural clean odor. But that is just hounds, not all dogs.
