Hello everyone, I'm furious. I went to the pet store today (where I bought two of my four) and a I was playing with the two ferrets there. They have one girl, which I've been eyeing for some time now, and one boy. While I was playing with them, an older couple came by and were happy to see them. At this time THE MANAGER came over and started throwing corncob in their faces!! She then started throwing and flipping them across the cage HARD!!!! The older lady said "Oh no that's too mean in a nice tone" AT this time, another lady and her son (3-4years old) were there. The manger kept doing it. This little boy thought it was funny. What a great age to learn animal abuse!!! aaarrrrgggggg!!!!! The girl ferret almost hit her head on this metal bar in the middle of the cage because of this manager. Anyway, I went to talk(more like scream) to another store personnel and there was nothing he could do. So I went to talk to the lady with the kid, she couldn't understand me because she was deaf and the older couple was gone. So I proceeded out the door and told the MANAGER, I did not appreciate how she was treating the animals and I would not let it continue. SHE SMILED AT ME WITH THIS EVIL SMIRK!!!! aaaaarrrrrrgggggg. I said no wonder they are biting now and walked out. I called another Petstore (I'm leaving the name out for now to give them a chance a reprimand this abusive Manager) , apparently she was transferred from this store. I'm assuming they were problems at the other store by the tone of voice from the manager there. Well, I was able to get the District managers number whose in charge of all the area's managers. My husband left the message ( I was too upset). We are tempted to go buy them because it's not fair to be treated that way and left in that enviroment. Even if it was till we found a home for them. aaarrrrggggg I'm so upset..... Please pray for these little innocent babies. I'll keep in touch.... If I don't hear anything, I may ask for your support to call this district manager. What really stinks about this is I saw this lady being mean before(not like today) but I brushed it off...... Thanks for listening or I should say reading. Aimee & Mike Pugsly, Sunshine, Ricky & Smokey [Posted in FML issue 2205]
