First and foremost, the national ferret vendor had placed a hold on ferrets and requested Petco stores quarantine them to watch for signs of distemper.
My boss thought she knew better than Petco and the vendor so to get around the black out, she sold the ferret as a cockateil so she wouldn't get caught.
If you have bought a ferret in the last 30 days, it may have distemper and has not had its rabies shots either.
And if the fish lights are off, and the aquatics specialist is not there, THEY ARE LYING TO TO YOU. They just don't want to help you. Call corporate.
Photos are not in order but are as follows ( things have been removed if they have an innocent person's name mentioned.
1) day one and two of crickets not being cleaned. crickets let off a gas that kills other crickets so if you wonder why half are dead before you get home, thats why.
2) animals with no food or water
3) Hamsters stress and die very easily. Petco recommends they be place in our wellness room and given electrolytes and probiotic for 48 before being placed on the floor. They do not do this which results in hamsters getting wet tail and dying within a week.
