My irritating (not weird) Petco experience was when we called in for the 15 day guarentee on our pet rats, which had respiratory infections. The manager told us to "bring them in a few days because the vet wouldn't be available until Monday." Having heard of this crap previously, I had my partner ask if we could accompany them to the vet. The manager stammered and said, "Well, we don't really know when they would be going...um um um um."

I was like, BS! and now I take my 13 pet's business elsewhere. They probably would have taken my babies, killed them, and said they couldn't do anything about it. My ratties are worth the $80 all their medication and visits cost. [Also, we found a great exotic pet vet. YEAYA!]

The rats at Petsmart might be sick too, but they have tubes, toys, and chews. Also, they never overcrowd. Better selection, too.
