Meet a clever cat whose life has lots of ups and downs. That’s because his daily patrol includes a trip on the elevator in his building. The handsome white cat — we’ll call him Otis — waits patiently at the elevator door, knows which floor he wants, and even enjoys some head scritchies on the way down.

This just floored me, Paul P.
I need an elevator cat at work, too.
The Meowzzanine must be where the building kitchen is .. little tuna for brunch.
Otis. I see what you did there. ?
Wow! Faced front too.
And went to the back when s/he got on and moved to the front when the elevator was getting to the right floor!
Amazing.
If I were a cat, I’d find elevators really disorienting. (They’re disorienting to me as a hoomin.)
Yes, Otis is an excellent name for an elevator cat.
And judging by the rear view–that’s a HE.
In Europe, we often came across Schindler as the elevator manufacturer. Yes, that’s right- Schindler’s Lifts.
NO!
When I lived in San Francisco I worked next to a one story building that had what was left of painted signage on the side that read “Trinidad Bean and Elevator Company”. That’s always been a puzzle to me.
There must be a tuna packing plant on that floor. Tuna and boxes. Tuna Is Us, Inc.
First floor : Balls of yarn and catnip
Second floor : Empty boxes, all sizes
Third floor: Tuna and assorted nummies
