Please welcome Story to the library!

Many of you remember our beloved library cat, Page, who passed away in April. Page was a special part of our library family and is deeply missed by our staff and patrons.

While we will always miss Page, weโ€™re happy to welcome a new furry friend to the library and introduce you to Story!

Story is 3 years old and recently had her teeth removed. Sheโ€™s a little shy, but she has been venturing out more each day and exploring her new home.

Weโ€™re so happy to welcome Story to the library and canโ€™t wait for you to meet her! Stop by and say hello.

Welcome to the library, Story!

Thank you Humane Society of Elkhart County!
