bibliophile cats

Well, we don't know that they're bibliophiles, but most likely cats who live in bookstores enjoy prowling through the stacks and meeting respectful patrons.  (And pretending to take naps while keeping secret watch to be sure no one takes any French Impressionist art books into the bathroom à la George Costanza.)  Here's a great link to an Ode to Bookstore Cats, and this picture of Hodge the Cat at Chicago's Selected Works Used Books is a re-post, but you can never get enough Hodge.  Hodge is a bookstore cat who along with the bookstore itself has many appreciative Yelp fans, and it would seem that he's pretty much running the show there at 410 South Michigan Ave., Suite 210.
