When I purchased my second 2 babies it was from a pet store.  I got there
and they only had 2 they had only been there a few hours.  The pet store
hadn't even tried to get them to eat.  They were covered in poop and
crying.  So needless to say I could not bear to get one and not the other.
The pet store told me they were 7 weeks old.  The poor things didn't even
know how to eat solid food.  I spent 3 weeks feeding them mush.  I thought
they were going to die.  This was almost 2 years ago and I know have eight
fuzzies and after that I refuse to even go in pet stores that have ferrets.
Some of the stores around here take good care of there little ones and make
sure they go to good homes.  Here in Florida you can't even give away
puppies and kittens until they are 8 weeks.  So how did a pet store get 7
week old kits?
