Max now owns the library, and would like to make some changes.
Change number one: All late fees must be paid in cat treats.
Change two: All dog owners are banned from entering the library.
Max has always been in the library.
Max will always be in the library.
This whole thing has a very "Welcome to Nightvale" vibe to it.

This could honestly be a 90s kids cartoon. Every week Max has a new plan to get into the Library, with the intent of knocking books off the shelf. And every week, the mean librarian has to try to stop his plan.

Hairy Larry and the Library.
On second thought, yours still sounds more kid-friendly.

Max should not be outdoors unleashed and unsupervised.
Yup. I know cats can do better roaming free than most pets, but that doesn’t mean it’s safe for them, and it’s certainly not safe for the local bird population.

But it’s so cute how he tears apart local bird families!

I used to work in the ER years ago in a small community hospital, and this neighborhood cat had figured out how the automatic doors on the ambulance ramp worked, and would slip in behind the paramedics and go curl up in the triage chair and wait for patients to come to the window to say hi. She also made rounds of the neighbouring nursing home and hospice on a regular basis.
Let Max in the library!
Meanwhile Max is decimating the local bird population, and risking getting hit by cars.
He's living his life to its Maximum.

Guards. Make sure Max doesn't enter the library under any circumstance.
Right, keep max in the library, even if he wants to leave.
No, no. Keep max out of the library at all times.
We don't have to do anything other than keep Max in the library.
Out of the library...
Oh, I remember. Can he enter the library with us?

WHY would you not want Max in the library?
"Here is nothing missing, but a cat urinated on this during a certain night. Cursed be the pesty cat that urinated over this book during the night in Deventer and because of it many others [other cats] too. And beware well not to leave open books at night where cats can come."
He relentlessly hassles the librarians over their "woke agendas."
In this case woke agendas means pets and treats

I wonder what Max did to get banished from the library.
Having cats I would bet he peed in the library
Yes, probably, but I want to think in my mind that it was something super chaotic and daring, like a furry super-villain.
Typical cat just knocking things off shelves - the library is an inexhaustible playground.

Meow at the door until someone opens it, then not go outside and go back to sleep on someone's reading material.
Max has left the library. Max has been saved.

Instructions clear, have filled the library with cats not named Max
I had a doggie named Max. He had bat ears. We called him BatMax. He died over two years ago. Now I miss Max.
Not your fault, obviously.

I'm afraid I can't stand for this.
Let Max into library now!!
#freemax
This is not fair, why do everyone else’s opinions matter more and are in a larger font? Max can make his own decisions!
Don't let your cats roam. Especially if you don't want them places they shouldn't be. It's irresponsible and there are mountains of data on why it's bad. But an anecdotal one from me, I live in a c complex in a residential neighborhood, where we often see roaming cats. We also see them dead after they ingest poisoned mice from nearby businesses, and get eaten by coyotes which are not uncommon around here.
Aside from that, it's just terrible for the environment and ecosystem.
I would definitely let him in
Petition to let Max in the Library, now!
