Westbrook High School cat becomes a star in national media
The 15-plus-year-old, plump ginger cat who has been arriving every morning at Westbrook High School, roaming the hallways and fraternizing with students for more than a decade, had been thrust into stardom when a story about a school art show in his honor began receiving national media attention.
Its been a rough week for him, Westbrook math teacher Tina Soucy said. Hes famous now.
When Soucy was hired 13 years ago, she let Simba follow her into her new classroom while she carried in boxes. Hes been coming back every day since, arriving by 7 a.m. and making the rounds. His favorite classroom is still Soucys, but he also frequents the guidance office and the district central office, which is in another building on the campus.
He knew what he was doing, because he made friends with the superintendent, Soucy said. Hes here very early in the mornings, and oftentimes stays through the night. Ill sometimes find him curled up on my chair when I arrive in the morning.
