Saying the problems don't actually exist is insulting.

I will say that at least 80% of the Petsmarts I have gone into around the country have had sick, injured or neglected animals on the sales floor. That makes it the majority--not "some".

So, are the small animals that Petsmart sells worth less? Why don't they go through an adoption process to insure they go to good, devoted, knowledgeable homes? Why are they instead sold to anyone with the money to plunk down on the counter?

Can you see how hypocritical that is?

Perhaps you should read this

Here is a wonderful warm and fuzzy video taken in one of the Petsmart stores of hamsters having some fun
