PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: Chief, Employee of the Month
"Can we get to normal World?"
If you visited TopTropicals Garden center, you've seen our Employee of the Month board in the office. And the picture on it... with our Chief, who is truly an irreplaceable member of our Shipping Crew. He is definitely the most responsible worker and reliable Chief Supervisor. This week, while greeting customers, he asked everybody to follow these simple rules that he established in the Nursery for everybody's safety during COVID-19 alert:
1. Yes, we are open! But If you want to browse the nursery, please call
for assistance at the gate and we will come over to help you.
2. Please NO CHILDREN on the property at this time. If you came with kids,
have them wait in your car while you are shopping. Chief can entertain
them!
3. Nursery is OPEN for browsing, limiting 2 customers at a time on the
premises.
4. If you know what plant(s) you want, just call us directly at our
customer service desk 239-771-8081 and we can bring those plants, for your
convenience, to the office or even to the gate.
Stay connected and we will get through this, all together, and we all will be just fine! So says Chief.

Meet PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: Tricky Lil S**t still rules the place!
Everyone knows Lil S**t because she is the first Purrrson you see when visiting our Garden Center, along with
Marco. They are our official Greeters.
She not only hangs out at the gate, but also runs our Shipping Department along
with Chief.
Lil S**t has her purrrrsonal extra plates at the gate: she insisted to have
them so she can demonstrate to everyone how empty they always are... that means
the poor Lil Thing is always hungry, duh. Well if you preferrrr to believe her, you may bring some treats for her... and
watch her eating them and bugging the next visitor 5 minutes later...
We don't mind her Lil tricks, because it seems like no matter how much she eats, she sure keeps her Lil figure slim without any diet! Maybe some day she can share her secret with us!

Meet PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Fearless Mr Barcy, the Boss
Mr Barcy is the Boss. He owns the property, the street, the
neighborhood, and the City of Ft Myers. Once he told us that he owns the whole State of
Florida too but he won't go any further... for political reasons he preferred
not to disclose.
Along with Chief, Mr Barcy is one of the oldest cats of TopTropicals.
His story is, some 10 years ago, he was sitting in Animal Control shelter
in Sebring, FL with no one wanting to adopt him... His "time" expired and he
was supposed to be put down on Friday... Someone sent us his picture in a
shelter cage and... on Wednesday, we picked him up (along with a few other
"scheduled" cats). Since then, Mr Barcy has been living with us, running the
business, and being the smartest Purrrson we ever met.
As a Boss, Mr Barcy has his own GPS tracker - and he walks 3-4 miles every
day (not bad for a senior purrson ah?) around his premises, keeping
operations under control, and himself in great shape.
In his leisure time, Mr Barcy prefers mice- and snake- hunting, keeping the
neighborhood safe and monitored. He can walk a human without using a leash,
and his tail is ALWAYS up!
