As the Taichung flora expo successfully drew to an end, everyone's favorite mascots, the Leopard Cat Family and Old Horsiver, are also looking to pursue an alternative career. Recently, Leo approached the Employment Service Counter to deliver his job application form in hopes of finding a decent job. Leopard Cat Family Love&Life Facebook fan page unveiled the mascots' job application video today (3rd). The interview was personally conducted by Mayor Shiow-yen Lu, where the Leopard Cat Family and Old Horsiver pulled out all the stops hoping to make a favorable impression in front of the Mayor. After the interview, Mayor Lu only had the nicest things to say about them and decided to appoint them as the Taichung City Mascots. Together, they will attend various functions in Taichung to market and make contributions towards the city.

Touched by their gesture, the netizens praised the mascots and congratulated them on their new jobs. According to the Information Bureau, the mascots were suddenly left jobless after the closing ceremony of the flora expo; as the head of the Leopard Cat Family, Leo was very concerned and approached the City Hall's Employment Service Counter to fill in a job application form in hopes of finding a decent job for the Leopard Cat Family and Old Horsiver.
