Mary Buendia once spent a day in an airplane, looking for a cat. She didn't find it that day. The plane flew around all over the world for three weeks with the cat on board. She finally found it in the cargo hold and sent it home first-class. Another time ,she found two suitcases full of birds from Turkey. But her strangest experience was when she pulled a snake out of a man's pants.
Mary Buendia is an animal health inspector at JFK Airport in New York. She takes care of all the animals that pass through the airport and checks that they are healthy. In the Animal Health Center, there are areas for dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and fish. There is also an area for very big animals. The biggest they ever had was a black rhino. "It was no problem." she says.
At the center, they receive all types of animals monkeys, wild cats, poisonous spiders. It's impossible for one person to know about all of these, but there are 20 people working with Mary. Among them, they understand how to take care of the animals. She recently had to feed a group of toucans, which are rare birds. "luckily," she says, "there is a supermarket nearby which is open 24 hours. I had to go at 2 a.m to buy bananas.
Mary often works at night. "It's quiet between 1 a.m. and 4 a.m." she says, "because we don't have night flights. We try to give the animals a quiet night." Mary clearly loves her job. "You never know what the day will bring,"she says, and goes off to feed the birds.

Leon was a postman. Every day Leon would wake up and feed his 37 cats. Leon didn’t really want 37 cats, but one by one they had appeared on his doorstep, and Leon had taken them in.
Every day, after feeding the cats, Leon would collect the mail from the red postboxes in the village and take it home. “If only I had 37 helpers instead of 37 cats, my job would be so much easier,” Leon thought. Just then, the cats started meowing for their dinner. That gave Leon an idea. That night, Leon worked late making 37 cat-sized postal backpacks. Then, he went around to each postbox, putting up signs that read: postbox closed! Please use the postal cat service.
The next day, Leon put a backpack on each cat and dropped off the cats around the village. Leon knew that the cats would be happy walking around all day. He also knew that they would always come home for dinner. Leon spent the day relaxing, waiting for his helpers to return. Leon was right. The cats did return, but they did not bring home many letters. Some got the letters wet. Some bit off the corners of the letters. Some even lost their backpacks. “Cats are just too unreliable(不可靠的),” Leon thought.
Just then, a strange sound came from the outside of Leon’s door. A dirty dog was waiting to be invited inside. That gave Leon an idea.
