I've driven by Mad Cats And More a few times and finally decided to stop in this past weekend. A…read morefriend of mine recently adopted a kitten (from another spot), so we thought it'd be fun to check out their shop and see what goodies they had. The store is conveniently located on Tiogue Ave, with a small parking lot right by it. When we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome and a quick rundown of their services. First up: the cat lounge. You can hang out with the cats for $20 an hour or $10 for 30 minutes, which seems super reasonable. Unfortunately, I only had about 20 minutes before a lunch reservation, so I didn't get to spend time with the cats as I'd hoped. I did though get a peek at the lounge itself through a window in a little alcove area with a coffee maker, and wow--what an awesome space for the cats! The owner even went in to give out some treats, so we got a good look at Zeus, the most majestic white Maine Coon I've ever seen. The cats looked so happy and energetic, and the lounge had plenty of seating for anyone wanting to chill and connect with the adoptable cats--there were over 10 available! After that, we spent some time browsing their small shop, which had all sorts of fun stuff: collars, custom (and funny) t-shirts, travel mugs, catnip toys, survival bracelets, door mats, coasters, air fresheners, sanitizers, chapstick holders, keychains, cross-stitches, figurines, scratchers, and more! While it was definitely stocked with lots of cool items for pet owners, I was hoping to find more stuff for my own cat. Still, it was clear they have a great selection for both cat and dog lovers. All in all, it's a cute spot and seems like a fantastic place to find your next fur baby. They also keep their Facebook page updated with adoptable cats and their hours, so it's worth checking out if you're in the area and want some quality time with the feline crowd!

Speaking only from being in the cat room. I did not purchase any of their pet toys or supplies. The…read moreplace is pretty small but the cat room is a good size. There are 2 resident Maine Coons who are there all the time - they are SO big and affectionate! There must have been about a dozen cats there when we went. $10 for an adult and $5 for a child to go in. Don't remember if that was for 30 mins or an hr, but it felt like plenty of time! The one staff member there was pleasant. I just love that we have a place we can go to if we have no other plans on a rainy day. You leave full of kitty love!

Strike three, no more business from me. I am fairly easy going. First off, most of the crew is very…read moreknowledgeable, I will give them that. I bounced back into the hobby after 10 years. I have 6 aquariums in my home all purchased since September. I have tetras, barbs, and south central and American cichlids in various tanks within my home. I love the hobby, especially the aqua scaping aspect. On my 125 planted tetra tank I wanted premium lighting, so I purchased (4) AI Prime 16 lights for around $1200.00 with tax. One of them stopped working within 2 weeks, never submerged, just turned red and refused to light up. I drove an hour to the store and asked for a replacement. I was told to go through the manuf. After reading multiple reviews online with horror stories of customers having to pay shipping back to AI, and then they refuse to honor warranties I said no thanks. So now I only have (3) lights with an 18' span on a 6 ft tank. Frustrating as hell, but OK, I overlooked that and said fine. Then I asked to purchase a large Gold Saum from their big cichlid tank. The employee bagged it up while I was looking at other fish in the back. My mistake for not looking in the brown bag before I left, I ended up with a Redhead Vieja. No big deal, I lost 2 hours of my day returning to get the fish I ordered and about $20 in fuel, the employee was apologetic and grabbed the right fish for me, so I moved on. My last straw was dealing with Dereck. I went in on Monday and asked him for a Starry Night cichlid. I showed him a video of my 180 setup and gave him a list of fish that I kept within it. He told me that the STarry Night would be just fine due to all of the hiding places and he pointed out that my Jack Dempsey's were much smaller than the Starry Nights and assured me it would be fine. He then showed me a tank and said they were in there. I said, where I don't see them, are you sure these are starry nights? He replied, "Yes, they are juveniles they don't get their chips until about 2 years". A Starry Night cichlid is a rare African from Madagascar and is compatible with South and Central American cichlids. But I have never owned a juvenile, I just did some research on the species and did not know if they looked completely different as juvies, so I took his word for it and took 3 of them home. I am looking at these fish in my 180 with all S/ C American cichlids thinking this can't be right. So, I Google searched "juvenile starry night cichlid" in images and NOTHING looked even close. I am scratching my head thinking they look like African Haps. So I search again under "Starry Night African Haps" and see star sapphire cichlids and realize this guy sold me the wrong fish. OK, no big deal, empty the rocks, driftwood, and scoop them up. An hour later and 2 towels on the floor I brought them back 20 minutes before they closed. One thing that was super frustrating was the fact that I didn't bring my debit card, and they said they couldn't give me a refund without the card, so I was forced into searching for fish to make up the $120 difference in store credit that I really didn't need or want. It was a Monday evening, so stock was low, and I didnt want to make a third trip seeing they are over an hour from my home and visiting the store usually eats up 3 hours or more round trip every time. I ended up buying some pearl scale koi angels for one of my planted tanks and was able to buy ONE Starry Night like I originally wanted. I left with my angels and 1 starry night cichlid. The next day I woke up and found the starry night dead and floating at the top of the tank. My Redhead Vieja was biting at it so I grabbed the net, drove over an hour back to the store only for Derek (the genius that sold me Star Sapphires instead of Starry Nights) to tell me he needed the original receipt (even though they could have easily looked it up in the computer) and a water sample. I said, your kidding, right? I told him that my water parameters are perfect, I have well water and a natural PH of 6.8. He said it says that I need these two things next to the register. I said you know I just bought this fish, and have driven out here numerous times, and you know I told you the tank he was going into, and you know you said the fish would be ok, and they are guaranteed, and you know I live over an hour away. I told him I am not spending $30 in fuel and 3 hours to bring a water sample when you have water in the bag with the dead fish. He said that is the store policy, I I asked, if he'd make an exception, I've spent like $3k in this store in the last 2 months alone. He said that the store policy. As I turned and walked away, I told him I wouldn't be back. He started laughing at me with his co-worker as I got to the door. This is not the way you treat customers. I am not a difficult customer, and I am very easy going, I've overlooked a lot of mistakes that cost me a lot of time, let alone money, but this was strike three for me.

The closest I've came is when they ran out of the only dog food one of my dogs can eat. This wasn't their fault as the truck was delayed due to the extreme winter storms. They offered to sell me the smaller more expensive bags at the same price per pound as I would have paid for my regular bag. Then they called me to let me know when the shipment arrived and set aside a bag for me. How nice is that?! The staff seem to be authentically interested in assisting customers, unlike many stores who have employees who seem annoyed when anyone shops there. Also, the selection of products is great.
