HAYSVILLE, Kan. - In more than 20 years as cat-in-residence at the Haysville Community Library, Libby Libra survived being run over, a catnapping, a tornado and 10 days shut up in an abandoned wing of the old library building.
But after a siege of bad health due to persisent thyroid problems, library officials had the cat euthanized last Friday.
Libby was abandoned outside the library as a kitten in April 1983, when she was thrown from a car.
"Somebody brought her in to clean up and we just kept her," said library director Betty Cattrell.
Bye-bye Libby...
