"She is the new greeter in the store" |
During the holiday rush of last year, we were given the most pleasant surprise gift. Much to our amazement the cutest little kitten was living underneath our store at 407 W. Fairbanks Ave. Being a stray, she was very cautious and weary of us at first. However, after several weeks of feeding and attention, she finally allowed us to get close enough to hold her. We took her to the local veterinarian for all her shots and she is now happily residing in store as our new greeter. After many suggestions and ideas, we decided to call her Fairbanks in honor of the street where Apenberry’s was started.
She has found many places to sleep in the store; her favorite place seems to be underneath the back counter. Fairbanks is very affectionate and is known to come out during the afternoons to greet customers and play with her toys. So next time you stop in to Apenberry’s ask to meet the newest member of our family, Fairbanks.
