Nobody can resist hugging him, and he just loves to leave his furry mark on everyone. These lint rollers make it so that we can eliminate the fur and send students home without wearing a Maynard fur coat. \r\n\r\nNow, the biggest thank you that Maynard would like to pass along is for his FOOD. If you know him, you know that eating is his favorite thing to do in the world! Thank you for helping keep his belly full. He cannot thank you enough!
