    My Male Panther Chameleon Ate my Anole

    Yes!! Lol Haha no, she's not. I actually don't let her in the rooms where I keep my chams so she won't stress them out. Idk about my boys, but if the cat ever did get near my female veiled, it would be the last time she thought about messing with a lizard, lol. Kasaya is pretty intense -...

    My Male Panther Chameleon Ate my Anole

    Wow. Chams... you gotta love em, lol. I can't imagine having one of my pets eat another one though. I can tell my cat keeps thinking about eating my lizards, and I'm about to kick her butt out for it. Lol

    Just so everyone knows, I'm not saying everybody should run out to PetSmart right now by any means. You know your local store, and if it's not adequate, don't shop there! I'm just trying to correct some of the misinformation I've seen about the company. I want to share this comment I got on my...

    There's really no need for the caps. I mean all of this in a good-natured way, and I completely respect your opinions. I'm just sharing my experiences with PetSmart, and you are just as welcome to share yours. It is not true that all PetSmarts are run the same way. I know there are many bad...

    Say hello to the new member of the family!

    Cute little girl! I like the name Peaches too. I really want to get one of the Circle Side females as well, but I just don't have the money right now. I'm hoping they'll still have one in a month or so... (I can hope :))

    No, we don't put sick animals up for sale. Like I said in my blog, sick animals are supposed to go to the vet immediately and then they are quarantined in the Quiet Room and treated until they recover. It is unfortunate that we get sick animals in at all (it's not often, but it does happen)...

    I agree, many stores have a lot of work to do. Some things are completely inexcusable, but I just think that the managers of those stores should be blamed, not the PetSmart corporation.

    Dude, why are you commenting on this thread if that's how you feel? Don't get me wrong - I totally respect your opinion and I'm not offended. But why would you comment to say that this is a stupid thing to argue about? I don't mean that in a derogatory way or anything, but I'm just saying don't...

    I think another important thing to consider is that when it comes to local pet shops, the ultimate responsibility for the care of the animals falls on the shoulders of the store manager. I think that PetSmart stores should be judged the same way - on an individual store basis. Just because a lot...

    This is true, based on corporate policies. PetSmart's policies and standards of care are much more humane than Petco's. I hate when those two companies are grouped together. They are not the same at all.

    In Defense of PetSmart

    It does! The corporation has all of that. The set-up requirements, feeding charts, etc. are practically children's books because they spell everything out so plainly. And you should see the books I had to read when I first got hired. Like I said in my blog, the reason that not all stores do...

    It's unfortunate that you have had bad experiences with your local store, and I totally feel for you, but I'm trying to make the point that not all are like that. And just for the record, our baby chameleons are absolutely not kept at 95 degrees, nor do we recommend that. About PetSmart not...

    I'm very glad to hear that. This is the kind of store I work at, and I know there are others out there.

    In Defense of PetSmart

    I agree completely. About the keeping babies at 95 degrees, that is not what the guide says at all. I can't necessarily vouch for the stores I haven't been to, but the information is not supposed to be different from store to store. The Care Guides refer to the adult reptiles (as indicated...

    I truly hate hearing stories like this, and it is such a shame that this happens because it is not what the whole company is about. I absolutely encourage you to shop elsewhere since your local store is one of the reasons PetSmart has such a bad name.
