This is a statue of Benjamin, the Auckland, Devonport Library cat.
He was a popular member of the staff for many years.
Further details in the below link if you want to know more.
I used to go to the original library building on the same site as a child growing up in Devonport. Miss Kennedy the librarian encouraged my love of books and reading.
There’s another cat statue elsewhere in Devonport, I’ll post a photo and details when I visit it.
