Trixie lives with her friend Max at Alexander Books in Lafayette, Louisiana. She was born in 1992. "Trixie has been a bookstore kitty since day one. She spends most of her day asleep in an antique chair we have in the children's section. Of course, when children arrive, she runs and hides. Trixie likes to jump in our office chairs as soon as one of us gets up. We usually have to pull another chair instead of moving her. She likes a warm seat. Also, as soon as someone heads for the back room, Trixie follows and begs for a treat." Story and pictures were sent in by Barbara Alexander of Lafayette, Louisiana

Note: Trixie died in October of 2002. She will be missed by her many admirers as well as by Max.
