On a cold January morning, Myron opened the library in Iowa（爱荷华州）. She heard a cat cry and finally found a yellow kitten（小猫)in a pile
of books.
“His little feet were frozen,” Myron recalls. “We gave h im a bath to warm him up and he purred the whole time so that we know he liked us very much.”
That was 1988 and it was a story for Dewey, the cat who has lived happily among the books ever since. “His story has a life of its own, we have people drive hundreds of miles out of their way just to see Dewey （戴维猫）. We even had a Japanese public television crew come here to make a short film of him. ”Shortly after the kitten’s rescue, a photo of the library’s “new employee” appeared in local newspapers. Local peopl e were invited to vote(投票) for the name of the kitten. “We have never had such a big crowd for a contest and there wasn’t even a prize,” Myron says with a laugh.
Dewey grew from a popular local “library employee” to a national star with his pictures on calendars（日历）. However, he is not the only cat who lives among books. Library cats greet people in about 125 libraries across America. Most live and “work” in comfortable, small town libraries where they don’t get lost in the books. Library cats used to make a living by catching rats, but library cats have more duties: to a make the library a pleasant place.
“Library cats just create a nice, warm atmosphere (气氛),” says Gary Roma, producer of “Puss in Books”, the film about library cats. “The cats
attract child ren to the library and the elderly who maybe can’t have pets in their apartments,” Roma says. “Books, libraries, and cats just go together.”
