Pride month may be over but Goodnow Library (and Cody) are proud of our community (and pets!) all year long. Meet Cody, pictured here with his lovely rainbow ears for Pride, and Pumpking, pictured here with her favorite toy!

While Cody may be an old favorite of library staff, this is Pumpkin's debut on the library's feed. The most important thing to know about Pumpkin is that she loves treats.

Cody was submitted by librarian Susan and Pumpkin by librarian Biz. We post a library community pet on . Some are submitted by Goodnow staff, and others are from library patrons. Do you have a pet you'd like to submit? (We accept all pets!) Send us an in-focus photo and a fun fact about your animal to [email protected]. No human faces please!🐾
