When I was down there about a year ago Fup was sitting on top of one of those
15+ foot bookcases, calmly surveying his/her realm.  

In Seattle, there's a used bookstore in the U district called Beauty and the
Books that has 4 black and white store cats.  They sell a great t-shirt with
the cats on it.

My favorite store cat, however, is the cat that lives in a certain antique
store in Tacoma.  I watched this cat calmly wander over to a Victorian 
sofa (which was not in great shape to begin with), stretch, then proceed to
sharpen its claws on the side.
