Our cats have been Zoom-bombing since 2020, and it’s about time they get the spotlight they deserve. In this fun series, we will introduce you to the felines owned by Middlebury Library staff.
Last of Library Mews: Demelza
We hope you’ve enjoyed Library Mews, which featured felines owned by Middlebury Library employees. Library Mews is going out not with a bang, but a hop and a thump.
Name: Demelza
Age: 2
Place of Origin:
Homeward Bound in Middlebury
Adopted by:
Kaitlin Buerge, College Archivist
Favorite Toy:
Sticks
Fun fact:
While she takes her name from a character from the BBC Masterpiece series Poldark (based on the novels by Winston Graham published from 1945 to 1953), her name also means “eel house” or “fort on a hill” in Cornish.
If she had a library card…
Depending on her mood, Demelza would place ILL requests (go/ILL!) for English author Winston Graham’s novels, or she would check out seasons 1 through 5 of Poldark from Davis Family Library.

Periodically, we’ve featured a library cat. Demelza (not officially a cat, but more like a cat then a dog or pet fish) marks the end of our series. We’re paw-sing our pet showcase, for now. =^._.^= ∫
