This is by far one of the DIRTIEST pet stores that I have ever visited. The smell inside is horrendous and the animals are in terrible conditions. My kids were able to point out at least 15 dead fish the first time we went from several different tanks. The birds were in cages that were piled with poop. The poor puppies smell awful. The second time I went in and asked for rats and when the owner himself came to give me the “white rats” they were YELLOW from living in deplorable conditions and swimming in their own feces and urine, they smelled and looked HORRIBLE! I wouldn’t feed those filthy rats to my snakes. When I asked for the price he said $7.99 which is just $2 less than Petco, I would gladly pay the extra $2 to never step foot in that place again. Please do not support this store, this place needs to be shut down and all these animals need to be saved from these terrible living conditions. I would never step foot in that place again and I would advice that you do yourself a favor and never visit this horrid place!
I went there and large groups of animals like guinea pigs, rabbits,hamsters, and ferrets in undersized cages that doesn't suit the large amount especially since these animals are territorial. Though either way these people are kind and helpful about the food and toys.
Long paragraph, but PLEASE READ: I really wouldn't consider people coming here. I had just recently went, as in 20 minutes ago, to see pet rats. I called probably last week and had asked for pet rats and they said that there were rats. I come from Morristown and had drove 55 minutes all the way to Elizabeth to find a rat. As I entered, I heard an animal squawking. Walking closer, I saw that it was a stressed blue, white, yellow, etc. Colored parrot. It was in the corner of its cage, squawking. Continuing to look around, I noticed that there were hamsters.. All dwarf-types... BUT there was pine wood shavings in their cage! This is bad for them because it causes respiratory problems for the hamsters! Selling them with these problems is not ok! It really isn't! This place is willing to sell hamsters that might have respiratory problems! How awful. Finally, can I get a drum roll? I asked to see the rats and a man showed me a big-sized white rat in a small, white box. Think about it. There is a dumbo, white rat in a SMALL box. He held the rat by its tail in the air and shoved the rat back in the smal box and shut it, the rat's tail being exposed. The main reason I am buying a rat is because they are misunderstood, they really are, and they aren't treated right. (Huge example as I've described) I'm only 13, and seeing this is traumatizing. It's animal abuse, it really is. I have a Chinese dwarf hamster in a big cage, with paper bedding, like they SHOULD HAVE, and I'm thankful for getting him at Petco because this shop is NOT a great place to shop!
A month ago I came to this petshop to buy my rabbit Rosita. She’s healthy, friendly with me, my family & Oero (my other rabbit). My only problem is that when I asked one of the employees to give me a string to tie/get a grip on the box to hold Rosita. He says we don’t have that in the store. The funny part is that I can see the strings under the desk... But ofcourse it wasn’t for free. I ended up going to Petland Discounts a few blocks down to ask for someone to give me a string or make a tape holder to carry Rosita all the way home.
Nice place nice staff. Overpriced for pets though. But it's convenient if you don't want to travel.
