Irresponsible Petsmart...like always
So, I went to Petsmart to get a larger Kritter Keeper for my crestie and while I was there I glanced around the reptile section and noticed they put in a new "wall of reptiles." I looked at the various reptiles in the new section, it consisted of a Rose Hair T., being held in a mini KK, a crestie in a small KK, (which was reasonable to an extent), a "fancy" corn snake in a mini KK, a Chinese Water Dragon in a normal Petsmart tank, and a few others I couldn't stand to even look at because the freaking T. and the corn snake in mini KKs pissed me off so much that I just got the Medium sized KK I needed, purchased it, and left. Oh, and to top it off, while I was in line, there was a mom, a dad, and their son who looked to be about 8 or 9, they were returning a "Snake Starter Kit", I asked them "What kind of snake are you getting?" They looked at me like I was crazy and then said "We're returning the cage, we had a corn snake but haven't seen it since we bought it, it's been hiding under the water bowl." So, at this point I'm starting to get even more pissed and then shake my head and say "How long have you had the snake?" The mother just looked at me blankly once again, and said "We've had it since the first." I was just so shocked, all I could say was "Oh, sorry for not being satisfied by my hobby, I quite enjoy it." So, then we are stuck behind them a little longer while the stupid cashier went to find a manager because she didn't know what she was doing, the son looks at me and says, "How many different kinds of snakes do you have?" I just kind of knelt down to his level, and replied with "At the moment I have none but in the past I've owned a corn snake, who was very adventurous in the tank, a ball python who was lazy, as expected, a boa, who was beautiful, and an anaconda that ate my father." The boy just looked up at his father and I walked away to another register to get out of that hell-hole as quickly as possible. So, as expected, I had a terrible time at Petsmart ( ) which was semi brought back up by the family that had absolutely no information on an animal they had only for four days, who I enjoyed messing with. /
