I'm also encouraged by the expansion of pet services companies here. When I pass a large Petco, my first thought is the possibility of them making contributions to politicians to make/keep NYC pet friendly, especially after the recent fiasco with my landlord wanting to bribe building workers here to 'rat out' cat owners. I hope that Petsmart comes into the city as well!
