Let me start off by saying this: I have many pets (1 hamster, 1 rabbit, 2 Anole lizards, and seven fish). With at least the types of pets I have, one would assume that I could go to a pet store and get the appropriate items to nourish, care for, and provide a comfortable living establishment for my animals. Unfortunately, the local PetCo doesn't feel the same way.
Frank and Jose, my two lizards, eat crickets. They like they're crickets alive. And I usually buy the crickets in bulk because theres two of them and they eat them up mighty fast. So in order to keep feeding them, I need to buy more crickets. Am I making sense so far?
Well, I hadn't bought crickets for nearly a week in a half because PetCo says they're out of them. I can understand it happening once in a while, but not when you go in almost every day of the frikken week! Besides, I don't always have time to go into town if I have to do other things. Contrary to what people may believe, I am a very busy person. So I finally got frusterated and went to the other small petstore in town (I usually don't have time to go because they close at five, and by the time I get into Keene its later, so I mistakenly go to PetCo)
Of course, they didn't get their shipment of crickets either. So their is nothing in the whole city of Keene, New Hampshire that can sustain a pair of lizards, which, may I state, I bought at PetCo.
So my question to you is this...How are these petstores selling animals and never having food for them when you go back to buy some? Further more, how are they feeding their animals? Or are they not feeding them and letting them starve? This little perdicament makes me think out of the box unto bigger and worse problems. I mean, come on people! If you sell the animals, have the food that goes with them in stock every once in a while. And if it's true that these pet stores aren't feeding their animals approprately, then they shouldn't be shopped at period. Lets come togethor and look into this as a people and see if PetCo is really where the pets go,..willingly.
