Barney eating snacks from the kids and entertaining them with his tail
Aunt Susan had been forewarned that Conall wanted to give Barney some "snacks" so she had his treats ready. The kids loved giving Barney the treats and some catnip and Barney liked the kids while they were feeding him. He tolerated them really well, but it was the end of the day and Barney was tired and the kids were very excited to be there. Barney eventually decided he'd had enough and went and hid in the stacks. The kids chased him down and then he went to Aunt Susan's office to hide. Poor kitty!
Aunt Susan also had set aside some books she thought Conall and Caitlin would like. Conall enjoyed going through them and showing off his reading skills. Caitlin pretty much just loved seeing Barney, but she picked out some books as well.
Caitlin visiting with Barney -- he looks thrilled, doesn't he?
Conall also learned about Braille, since Aunt Susan's library is at the School for the Blind. He got to see how a machine makes Braille on paper and see his name in Braille. He loved that!
