(24,521 posts)Places that I've been that have that sense of home - cats, dogs, people enjoying each other.
So much better than the maga/mega hardware stores.

(23,679 posts)Besides hardware, the store also sells supplies for home brewing, including grains, hops, yeasts, etc.,
so the cats work as vermin repellent.

(90,769 posts)Shell more than earn her keep. And the customers will fall in love with her.
The store may actually gain some customers whose kids will want to see the kitty.
If I ran that store, Id start using her. Get some photos and run ads that feature her in some way. Kitty says check out this weeks specials! or Our sale is the cats meow! They could have some BIG fun with it!
GREAT gimmick possibilities! World-class! And if the hardware store sells a few pet supplies (like our local ones do), Pet-Day Specials might be utterly BOFFO! And if the local news gets wind of it, theyd get coverage, which would really put em on the map!
Dont get me started

And so much stuff to explore.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
