If I were Max, i would try to get rid of the nameplate or even better change it to something else
Oh. This isn’t Max. This is Tom! His nametag says so.
This could honestly be a 90s kids cartoon. Every week Max has a new plan to get into the Library, with the intent of knocking books off the shelf. And every week, the mean librarian has to try to stop his plan.
so a kerazy cartoon, huh boss? The main character would be a cross between a cow… and a helicopter.
What do you want to do today, Max?
TRY TO GET IN TO THE LIBRARY!! 😼
Ya know, I was trying to avoid the Animaniacs tie-in, because I thought it was a little TOO on the nose…but yeah, I totally imagined him in that animation style.
Library Larry
Hairy Larry and the Library.
On second thought, yours still sounds more kid-friendly.
Max is already in the library.
Knowing my inattentive ass I would have read that sign after happily letting max into the library.
Max is the library
Max now owns the library, and would like to make some changes.
Change number one: All late fees must be paid in cat treats.
Change two: All dog owners are banned from entering the library.
Max has always been in the library.
Max will always be in the library.Max would like to know if you’d care for a cocktail
This whole thing has a very “Welcome to Nightvale” vibe to it.
Max has always been in the library.
Mad is behind me in the library isn’t he?
I wonder what Max did to get banished from the library.
Researching forbidden lore
Meow at the door until someone opens it, then not go outside and go back to sleep on someone’s reading material.
Having cats I would bet he peed in the library
Yes, probably, but I want to think in my mind that it was something super chaotic and daring, like a furry super-villain.
Typical cat just knocking things off shelves - the library is an inexhaustible playground.
Then spraying it with his butt hole pee contraption
Talking to people loudly?
Solid possibility.
Max has left the library. Max has been saved.
I’m afraid I can’t stand for this.
That grammar is concerning for someone who works at the library.
Meanwhile Max is decimating the local bird population, and risking getting hit by cars.
He’s living his life to its Maximum.
Please note that this is not a global problem, and that keeping a cat indoors is also not a solution - just don’t get a cat then.
My cat is very happy and healthy indoors and turned 19 this year. Got another 10 in him too.
Happy to hear that! Give them some extra pets today!
My cats are perfectly happy indoors cats.
Instructions clear, have filled the library with cats not named Max
I had a doggie named Max. He had bat ears. We called him BatMax. He died over two years ago. Now I miss Max.
Not your fault, obviously.
I’m sorry for your loss. He was a good boy.
He was. Thank you.
Upblessing BatMax
Let Max in the library!
People are commenting to let him in the library but the way the letter is written doesn’t suggest the library owner owns the cat
He’s a cat, he practically owns himself
Max should not be outdoors unleashed and unsurprised.
Yup. I know cats can do better roaming free than most pets, but that doesn’t mean it’s safe for them, and it’s certainly not safe for the local bird population.
not every cat hunts birds, and in rural areas it’s pretty safe for them to be outside
You must not live in North America, because house cats are about half thr diet of coyotes in the US and Canada.
no I live in Europe
Well, at least can we let Max take out that one bird in the neighborhood that divebombs everybody waiting for the bus? It’s all black with a bit of red or orange on it’s neck. I don’t mind the pigeons, or the sparrows, or the robins, or the cardinals, or the blue jays, or the crows. They can all live…but lets make that one bird go extinct.
Probably a nest up in the corner of the bus stop. The only time I’ve ever been dive-bombed was by some swallows when they had a nest up in the corner of the house’s porch.
That bird is doing that cause it got eggs somewhere close by. Or they already hatched. Still want to kill it?
Yes. Don’t raise your kids at the bus stop if you can’t play nice with the bus people. That bird had ample time to realise that people are always using the bus stop. Bird should have laid eggs somewhere peaceful. Now bird is being an asshole for no reason as a response to its own bad choices. We should kill off asshole birds like that and let the species evolve smarter and less mean.
Fun fact: a lot of fairy tales have wolves going after humans with a ferocity you will not see in nature. This is because back when those stories were written, they did. However, humans are vindictive. Man-killer wolves would be hunted down with spears and killed. Over time, wolves evolved to be more cautious of humans and less aggressive. And now our wolf problems are solved.
Yep you should make sure to jump out from behind a bush or tree to make sure your cat stays on its toes the entire time it’s outside.
But it’s so cute how he tears apart local bird families!
100%. Cats are fine, but wild birds are better.
What about seagulls?
Dope, gulls are.
Gulls are dope
Gulls are dope
I used to work in the ER years ago in a small community hospital, and this neighborhood cat had figured out how the automatic doors on the ambulance ramp worked, and would slip in behind the paramedics and go curl up in the triage chair and wait for patients to come to the window to say hi. She also made rounds of the neighbouring nursing home and hospice on a regular basis.
Sounds like it was collecting souls
kinda what psychopomps are for, yeah.
Petition to let Max in the Library, now!
