Unfortunately my voyeuristic interest in pets of the slimy and scaly variety is all too often spoilt by a shop that keeps its animals in cramped or unhygienic conditions (yes, I know it's not a zoo, but still...). Happily, I encountered no such problems at Tyrannosaurus Pets, an 'exotic' pet store that stocks lizards, snake and amphibians. Quite aside from having one of the best pet shop names ever, this shop is a credit to its trade with a shiny, modern shop floor; helpful, knowledgeable staff and - most importantly - spacious, clean vivariums filled with content animals. When I visited I was quite open about the fact I'd just come for a gawp, but the staff treated me as if I was a paying customer, and told me lots of stuff about the logistics of keeping lizards and snakes that I'd never heard before, despite pet shop loitering being something of a habit of mine. If you're thinking of buying an unusual pet or already own one and need to stock up on accessories, this is the only place you should need to go in Leeds.

2 Cemetery Road, Bradford…read more BD8 9RY 01274 541528 This is a very old shop that has been here for years. It is huge inside but very cluttered with all the stock so is quite hard to manouvre. On the first floor you will find all your pet supplies from the usual medications/shampoos to toys and food for dogs/cats/rabbits, etc. They have a few cages tooked round a corner with rabbits/birds/cats,etc for sale and i love looking at them - they are so cute. The kids love coming in just to see the pets. Downstairs they have stuff for like aquariums and reptiles and there used to be a big fishpond in the middle with goldfish but i think it was taken out. They do sometimes have snakes for sale but ive not seem them often. Going downstairs is quite a hassle as the steps are quite steep and it is quite dark and has a wet and eerie feel down there. The garden supplies are upstairs and there are various plants, etc and wooden structures placed outside. The prices arent the cheapest but it is a family firm so they cant place things too cheap. The staff are lovely and friendly. Also they do funeral flowers and wreaths which they will deliver to the funeral parlour or church for you or you can pick up yourself - they have a huge selection. They also offer graveside tributes which they will carve for you too.

Outside they sell some flowers and plants for your garden but they do some more inside. They also have some dog kennels, rabbit hutches and other wooden structures outside for you to buy. Inside they have lots of choice for your cats, dogs, rabbits, reptiles and other rodents. You can also buy yourself a new pet while you are shopping. They also do reptile and fish products downstairs but be careful not to trip on the steps as they are slippy and steep. They sell garden mowers, etc which are pretty steep in price, infact most goods are dear but they are conveniently located. The staff are lovely and friendly and very helpful. They do delivery services and also you can order funeral flowers and wreaths from them.

Yes, we tell ourselves that we go there to buy bird food, but really we could stock up on it and not go for years. Instead, we go there so frequently because we are basically a couple of kids in men's bodies who love squawking, shrieking animals of all varieties. They do birds, fish and rodents as you'd expect, and, as is the case with the food/cages/toys that we go in to purchase, the selection is wide, and the prices are low. Love it.

It's hard to remember the time PS, the more we charge ahead into the AS era the more the past becomes fuzzy, fragmented and frankly pointless. I can't remember what life was like for me before the advent of the Universe's Greatest Kitten and I'm beginning not to care. Everything starts and ends with Steve. Step aside assorted mystical deities, there's a funky black kitteh in town. Steve, or to give him his full title Unstoppable Steve 'Awesome' Summers-Jackson, came from this excellent pet shop on York Road. I've been going here for years for the wide range of food and treats, fishies and fishy related frippery and to buy small furry things whose entire purpose in life is to make me feel cuddly on the inside. As soon as we saw Steve we knew he was the one, he'd already made a huge impression on the staff in his time there by virtue of his mega meowy awesomeness and they still ask how he's doing every time we pop in. Great shop, great staff, happy and well cared for animals and an excellent example of how to do things right in a tricky and often poorly delivered industry. If Steve could say anything other than MROOOOOOOWWW, MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA and PRRRRRUPPP I know he would give a double thumbless up.

I love pet stores that actually have animals inside for you to look at and paws for thought really do have a wicked reptile selection. I'm not a fan of them as they creep me out a lot but I kind of like looking. They provide care sheets for loads of different animals in store which is a really good service and all of the staff really know their stuff about how to look after the animals properly. As Susan's review said, they advise the RSPCA on exotic animals so they really do know their stuff.
