Brattleboro Hardware Store Welcomes Cats as Part of New Ownership. Brown and Roberts Hardware in Brattleboro, a longstanding Main Street business, recently became part of the Aubuchon chain along with six other Vermont stores. As part of the transition, the store has introduced two resident black cats, named Makita and Milwaukee, both serving as a practical solution for pest control and as a draw for customers. The feline initiative is part of a broader tradition within the Aubuchon chain, which has used store cats to deter rodents and engage shoppers for decades. The cats are now familiar faces at the newly acquired location. (Source: The Commons on Jan 6) Southern Vermont Brattleboro, VT Manchester, VT Burlington, VT
