Melville is Battlefields & Beyond's loyal mascot. Rescued as a kitten during Hurricane Irene, he was adopted by Bernadette and Beth. His charm and love of people quickly showed that he would thrive in the bustling bookstore atmosphere. He now oversees book ordering, destroys houseplants, and ensures quality catnip toys are available for the furry friends back home!
