This shop was at The Shambles in York. York being famous for it's Cat Trail which has over 30 cat sculptures perched on rooftops and hidden in alleyways. You can take part in the local "scavenger" hunt to find them all. The tradition of a cat on a roof started in the 1920's to ward off evil spirits and frighten away rats & mice, but has evolved into a local quirky way to explore the city and learn about the history.
