Restaurants for Pets? Whaaaaaaaaaaaa?

[ZekeySpaceyLizard]

From News of the Weird:

A theme restaurant for cats (the Meow Mix Cafe) opened in New York City in August, allowing owners to dine with their kitties and eat similar dishes ("Deep Sea Delight" mackerel for felines, tuna rolls for humans). No dogs are allowed, and visitors' catnip must be checked at the door. Also in August, the 96-page glossy, cocktail-table magazine, New York Dog, debuted, featuring a dog psychology advice column, dog horoscopes and dog obituaries, along with such articles as the makeover-inspiring "Queer Eye for the Scruffy Dog." (The publisher estimates that New York City has 20 million dogs.) [Associated Press, 8-18-04] [New York Times, 8-16-04]

What do you people think of that?
I dont know whether to think of it as a cute idea for people who love their pets, or if this is a monstrous waste of resources.

Either way, when I read this, a small part of my brain died.

Only when I am capable of filing my pet as a dependant on my taxes will I ever.... nahh these poeple are fuking psychos

People dress their pets. People take their pets to hair salons and fitness centres. People marry their pets. This is retarded, but no longer mindblowing.

I suppose I shouldn't be talking, I come from a family that lets the dog sleep in their bed and often lick the plates clean after dinner.

I dont see anything wrong with letting the dog sleep in your bed but taking it out to dinner...

Look into Doga - it's yoga for dog owners, and it's as much for the dog as the owner. Apparently it's quite the to-do in New York right now.

But... Dogs can ALREADY reach their crotches with their mouths. Why do they need Yoga? :/

So they can utilize Zen while they are at it?

Probably that's why people give them so much attention?
