Felix the Recycling Cat

Despite some tight economic times at Powell Valley Recycling (see tomorrow's Tribune), they've managed to add a new staffer -- Felix the feline."He recycles mice," quipped Powell Valley employee Al Renaud.

Let the photographic record show that Felix is also very good at posing.

Recycling Manager Mary Jo Decker said the cat wandered in one day and was immediately loved by all - even the macho dudes at the recycling center.

However, Felix's work is only part-time: he gets banished to the office whenever the heavy equipment is in operation.

Less frivolous information on recycling is in tomorrow's paper.
