What makes a small local shop special? Sometimes it's something quirky. Remember when every bookstore had a cat? Well, we know one wine and spirits shop that shares its space with a frisky, flurtatious feline.

If you'd like to meet Sofia, stop into Bauer Wine & Spirits on Newbury Street, where this new kitten is establishing her territory and settling into a new home.

Miss Sophia, who reminds us of another star by the same name, spends some of her time near the wines of Italy pointing out the best-of-the-best from that region.

Faced with the unexpected presence of paparazzi in her home, she tried to play it cool.

But, I promised if she'd give me her prettiest pose, I wouldn't publish the photos of her chewing on the Christmas tree. 

If you're looking for local beer, cider, wine, or spirits for your holiday table or as a holiday gift, check out this video with Howie Rubin, one of Sophia's co-workers at Bauer. He runs down a few of the many local beverage choices we have available from New England producers.

What's the easy way to get a Cat Condo or Cat Activity Tree? Order it on Amazon, and they'll deliver it to your door. Sophia has one that she loves!

    I was thrilled to see Sophia in the window the other day and have been meaning to drop in to meet her. Great photos! I may let you get your camera paws on Possum if you keep this up!

    Please do go visit Sophia. She can really use a Possum-trained playmate. She’ll bring you a toy.
    Mr. Possum is proud of his personal photographer with good reason. You take fabulous photos of him.
