Groundswell of Support for Heroic Pitbull Gets Citywide Ban Lifted
After a pitbull protected his mom during an attack by a violent boyfriend, the community fought to get the city's ban lifted against the often-heroic breed.
Check out this unique stress buster for hectic offices– a ‘library' that loans kittens instead of books.
There's a unique ‘library' in Las Cruces, New Mexico. But it's kittens – not books – that people are checking out.
A few years ago, county officials installed a little kitty condo in the lobby of their office building. The cats, from a local shelter–available for adoption– are available to any employee looking for a temporary ‘fur fix' during the workday.
The kittens help relieve stress, community planner Angela Roberson told CBS's Steve Hartman. "I mean how can it not when you have a little fuzzy thing that you can take back to your office?"
It's not just a morale boost for the workers – it's helping the homeless animals too. Officials say, so far, 100 kittens have been adopted from the library.
