well here it goes and i hope that the "you know what "doesnt hit the fan--
 
regarding my post of a few days ago where i said i bought all the ferrets
when i saw they were continualy without food and water and chronically
infesteted with ear mites- and the pet store had a habit of selling live
animals to little kids ( only to have them end up with me when mom said
"get that thing outta here"--it is petland discounts-- a big chain, at
least here in the east..
 
it is really the quality of workers they hire- unskilled,underpaid-- and
excuse me-- morons!--who just dont care- i mean how can you sit there at
the cash register with your burgers and frys talking on the phone with
your friends - when the animals in the store have nothing in the cage to
eat or drink?
 
i have contacted petland headquarters and they say they give their
employees protocol on how to care for the animals- but who follows
protocal if they are morons!
 
peace,christine
