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.

Ah this might be the secret of the universe. Cats do indeed rule and make everything better

Lets just let those lovable fur balls take over the world . It would be a better place even if it does smell like tuna

Thank you for a most wonderful story. I will share it with my girl when she wakes from her nap

More like “smells like cat pee.” No thanks! Beware the fur balls and poop!
Can you tell I am a dog guy?

I used to live in a 2 story apt building. On the upper floor we only had roaches but the first floor had rodents so the residents punched holes between adjacent apartments so local cats could roam the building and clean it out. At the time the building was slated for teardown in a few months anyway.

For some reason I always thought you were a dog person.

Dogs AND cats? Now that's diversity......

I have NEVER been in a house with dogs that didn’t smell BAD. I have 4 cats and you would never know it. Because they bury their poop and i scoop it twice a day. WIth a dog, they just stink all the time....and the house always stinks.

I have never understood how someone can like cats or dogs, but not the other one. To me I have the same affection and feeling for both, they are just different animals.

Don’t the lawyers object when the cats keep covering them up with kitty litter?

We used to have a number of businesses in town with a kitty cat on hand to greet customers. No more. The county health dept forced them all out. Even if the store didn’t sell food products!
