Ok well the reason for my anger is that I went to a pet store called Critters Pet Shop to buy some fish food for my pet fish Moe. I usually look at what condition they keep their hedgies in, hold them, pet them ect. Anyways I have made an older post on this before but this time it has gone to far. I looked inside the tank and there was TWO hedgies in there. I asked a worker what gender they were, and she said I dont know... I was like WHAT!!!! :evil: And to top that all off, I saw some little pink blobs in the "cage" that looked like dead babies!!!! :x :x To be sure I touched the little blob and it felt wet and squishy!!! There was no blood so I dont know if that really was a mutilated baby. The two hedgies were in a corner balled up and shaking/hissing. I grabbed my dad and stormed out of there right after. :x :evil:

On another term, they sell sickly looking kittens for 750 dollars! They keep their dogs in small crates all day with no food/water! Another thing is that my teachers friend bought a dog there and it died a week after of pnoumonia. And the people that work there have no idea what these animals need!!!! :shock:

Please help me for I feel that I should do something about this horrible place. I dont for sure if those pink blobs were carcasses or not, but I know for sure that place is B-A-D!!! Sorry for the long post but I feel that this is necessary for the animals health!

Re: OMG I am soo upsett!!!

I am sorry to hear this! Most pet shops are awful, but that sounds even more horrible than most! It's very likely those pink things were babies. Poor things will probably be eaten.

I know and by the way those pink things were already eaten!!!

Re: OMG I am soo upsett!!!

Check out your local SPCA website. They usually give a phone number for complaints.
You can also dial your local non-emergency police number and they will give you more information on who to call and what their numbers are. You can also try your vet for a phone number or local animal shelter.

Just make sure you're consistent in checking up on everyone involved. The SPCA has a lot of investigating to do and sometimes things get lost in the shuffle.

I really want to do this, but the thing is I am only 13 and I dont own a hedgie (yet). I dont know if my parents would really care, but I could ask my dogs vet....
