SnuggleBunny, on the other hand, has been working hard all morning. She helped take the ornaments off the tree, and she visited with friends all over the campus, spreading Christmas cheer! He gave happy head-butts to one of our preschoolers who could barely reach over the counter. (more…)

CATS IN THE STACKS

What a great Library Cat Christmas we had here yesterday! Our first Christmas party with Alex doing the hosting was a big success. Alex, SnuggleBunny and Piper all arrived at school early and put on a holiday collar.
