I Guess We'll be Visiting Manhattan Soon

Fark disapproved mightily of the latest "theme" eatery idea coming soon to NY City:

When the Meow Mix Cafe opens its doors August 17, pussycats will be able to tuck in to a variety of vittles while their owners enjoy comparable dishes. For example, while the kitty chews on her "Fillet Meow" of beef in gravy, her owner eats a beef tenderloin sandwich.

Having watched my own cats splatter "Tuna Surprise with Cheese Bits" all over the kitchen floor, I'll pass for my own reasons. But I doubt it'd even slow Ellen down.

hmmm - 200 cats, all in the same room. with food and kitty-weed. and they think leashes'll help keep the fights down? They must be smoking crack. The place will probably be nothing but hissing, clawing, spraying cats.

Now, a dog-themed eatery would rock. I could have steak, Pongo could have steak. This would work. Most dogs that people would take to a place like this wouldn't fight, they'd play (until there was food involved, and as long as there was adequate separation, no problems)

They're in for a trademark infringement, as Meow Mix is a famous NY lesbian bar

i'd assume that most cats that people would take to a place like this would also be trained to behave well. it is possible, with some cats. not mine though, very much the scaredy cat.
