"Boris & Horton, set to open in about two weeks at 195 Avenue A near 12th Street, is a pretty run-of-the-mill cafe in which dogs are welcome. Yes, that is a newsworthy thing in and of itself, considering New York City does not have any food establishments that (legally) allow dogs inside. But to market Boris & Horton as a dog cafe is to group it with places that became popular for providing cats and other animals, all available for adoption. These other places, like Koneko on the Lower East Side, actually provide the animals, whereas Boris & Horton will only have animals owned by other people." - Stefanie Tuder
