We care enough about the animals that we do not support selling them in petstores. This includes NOT buying them. If we keep buying the animals we are rewarding the stores for selling them and they will ever stop.

You have an awful lot to learn. The GPs in petstores are most decidedly NOT rescues or dumps. People want cute little baby animals, not older animals which are the ones that usually get dumped. Petstores buy from mills, bunchers and backyard breeders.
I almost wish the Ebay auction was still up that we got cancelled today. It showed classic pictures and attitude of a typical petstore breeder. In the auction the breeder admitted to backbreeding repeatedly and showed pictures of a poor mom and multiple babies all crammed into a 10 gallon fishtank. That was the breeder's standard of care. The exact same standard people support when they buy from petshops.
I recommend you read more on this site. There is a wealth of knowledge and experiance here and you may learn the real truth about petstore.
