Dewey Readmore Books – Cats of Iowa

This is Dewey Readmore Books, now well known as the cat in the New York Times best-selling book of the same name. Dewey was abandoned in the Spencer Library’s book return, and became known far and wide as the Spencer Library cat. This video also profiles Conrad, Iowa’s town cat, Tom, also well-loved by the entire town after being rescued. This “Living in Iowa” archived video originally aired in April of 1998 on Iowa Public Television. For more recent videos visit Iowa Public Television www.iptv.org
