Cats and Dogs

Why this sign?
I took this picture because I found what the sign said to be very different from other signs. I liked how it said "Food for the Irresponsible". I wasn't really sure what it meant but I thought it would make a good picture.

The owner used to vend chicken on a stick in the alley across the street. Savvy customers, suspecting that the protein might be sourced from another animal, referred to the food as cat-on-a-stick, and other names. It stuck, and they eventually got a storefront. Outright advertisement of the food source should justify the 'irresponsible bit' Ummmm.... tabby is my favorite.

Actually, Cats & Dogs is no longer in business and was not related to the Food Cart across the alley at all. They were a different business. Neither business survived.
