And no, it doesn’t mean cafés with dog on the menu! Quite the opposite. These are cafés where animal lovers who can’t keep their own pet go to make a big soppy fuss of dogs or cats.
At Bau House there are up to 25 friendly dogs running around, eager for titbits and tummy-rubs from customers. You’ll find every breed from a tiny chihuahua to a huge Siberian husky. Needless to say, the sofas are ragged and things can get rather boisterous and… well… messy, but the place is extremely popular.
If you prefer cats and a cosy, relaxing atmosphere, try Gio Cat. It has over 30 kinds of cat, curled up on shelves, prowling under tables, sitting on the counter – and on your lap once you’re settled.
Cute idea? Or barking mad?
