    Petsmart here will not, but Petco does. I was refused at Petsmart once so I left and went back after I smoked a cigarette. This time I said I wanted a pet mouse. She didn't fall for it.

    I had friends who had to feed their 2000g female and their hatching spider female. All we had was a petco, and once the staff caught on to the fact that they came in every week for new rodents, my buddies would hire different friends every week to go "adopt" feeder mice after being chased out of the store twice.

    This was very entertaining. I had some good laughs.

    Wow what a creeper. I second the female crush thing. ;) That's what I was thinking when reading this.

    Pretty nuts to be refused a rat or mouse because it'll be a feeder. I'm glad the local feed store her sells their rats and mice with the intention that they be used as feeders.

    Our Petco doesn't sell live feeders either. It's actually against corporate policy to sell live feeder animals.
    I don't see why it matters anyway since their rats are from feeder stock either way.......

    Both of ours do, and they know they're feeders. I once asked if they have different ones depending on what it's for (pet vs feeder) and the girl said they don't, they only ask because the "adoption" papers are different.

    That's really creepy and I'd be so ticked off if someone used my phone number for a personal reason when they're not supposed to

    I would actually tell that creeper to piss off and never call me again, or I WILL call corporate, which will most likely end in her subsequently getting fired. I have no qualms about telling people stuff like that.
