alright Ive read the many different posts on petsmart and now I have to say something, I recived my first ferret from someone who could no longer spend the time with her that she deserved neither of us knew of any shelter in Tucson (yes I now know of two finally found out about them after one for his shots at the vet from some one else in the waiting room) I then in following months purchased from PETCO 2 play mates for her because at the time I still did not know that there were shelters. Also I have come to find out I probly would not have been able to adopt from the shelters as to the fact that I am 21 and live with my parents while going to university and my mother smokes. (dont start filling my email box I know this isnt good but if she wouldnt stop for my health or her in the last 21 years why would she stop for my pets) but I also dont think I should be penalized and unable to give my ferrets a loving home because of something I cant change. I shop at PETSMART because its closer but I dont see the difference in shopping at petco when they already sell ferrets! [Posted in FML issue 4703]
