And here I thought Pilsen had everything.

Kota’s opened not too long ago, adding squeaks and chirps to 18th Street’s daily chorus. I by no means have the resources to support another life in my household, and yet still when passing by each day or two I wonder if I shouldn’t go inside.

The risk there of course is falling in love — getting attached to something furry, feathery or even a tad scaly.

Kota’s actually has me feeling nostalgic about days past — family visits to the mall with extended window shopping anywhere with an animal friend on the other side of the glass.

Seems like this place is already bonding P-Town’s own with some.
