Max is already in the library.

[-] kambusha@sh.itjust.works 58 points 3 months ago

Max now owns the library, and would like to make some changes.

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Change number one: All late fees must be paid in cat treats.

Change two: All dog owners are banned from entering the library.

[-] mipadaitu@lemmy.world 23 points 3 months ago

Max has always been in the library.
Max will always be in the library.

This whole thing has a very "Welcome to Nightvale" vibe to it.

Knowing my inattentive ass I would have read that sign after happily letting max into the library.

Max is the library

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.

[-] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago

What do you want to do today, Max?

TRY TO GET IN TO THE LIBRARY!! 😼

Hairy Larry and the Library.

On second thought, yours still sounds more kid-friendly.

Max should not be outdoors unleashed and unsupervised.

[-] wjrii@lemmy.world 48 points 3 months ago

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.

100%. Cats are fine, but wild birds are better.

But it’s so cute how he tears apart local bird families!

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.

Let Max in the library!

[-] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 36 points 3 months ago

Meanwhile Max is decimating the local bird population, and risking getting hit by cars.

[-] cheddar@programming.dev 20 points 3 months ago

He's living his life to its Maximum.

WHY would you not want Max in the library?

[-] charonn0@startrek.website 25 points 3 months ago

"Here is nothing missing, but a cat urinated on this during a certain night. Cursed be the pesty cat that urinated over this book during the night in Deventer and because of it many others [other cats] too. And beware well not to leave open books at night where cats can come."

He relentlessly hassles the librarians over their "woke agendas."

[-] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 3 months ago

In this case woke agendas means pets and treats

Guards. Make sure Max doesn't enter the library under any circumstance.

Right, keep max in the library, even if he wants to leave.

No, no. Keep max out of the library at all times.

We don't have to do anything other than keep Max in the library.

Out of the library...

Oh, I remember. Can he enter the library with us?

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago

Guards: ..... please come with us, Emperor Max has ordered us to arrest you

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 25 points 3 months ago

I wonder what Max did to get banished from the library.

[-] MissJinx@lemmy.world 19 points 3 months ago

Having cats I would bet he peed in the library

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Yes, probably, but I want to think in my mind that it was something super chaotic and daring, like a furry super-villain.

[-] tburkhol@lemmy.world 16 points 3 months ago

Typical cat just knocking things off shelves - the library is an inexhaustible playground.

Meow at the door until someone opens it, then not go outside and go back to sleep on someone's reading material.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

Max has left the library. Max has been saved.

Instructions clear, have filled the library with cats not named Max

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

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 afraid I can't stand for this.

[-] anas@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

This is not fair, why do everyone else’s opinions matter more and are in a larger font? Max can make his own decisions!

[-] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 13 points 3 months ago

Let Max into library now!!

[-] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 3 months ago
[-] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Don't let your cats roam. Especially if you don't want them places they shouldn't be. It's irresponsible and there are mountains of data on why it's bad. But an anecdotal one from me, I live in a c complex in a residential neighborhood, where we often see roaming cats. We also see them dead after they ingest poisoned mice from nearby businesses, and get eaten by coyotes which are not uncommon around here.

Aside from that, it's just terrible for the environment and ecosystem.

[-] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

I would definitely let him in

[-] limerod@reddthat.com 8 points 3 months ago

Petition to let Max in the Library, now!
