yesterday while out shopping i told my hubby i wanted to nip in the pet shop to see if i could get 2 new collars and leads for mia and kai...i want 2 flshy ones for when we go on holiday....anyway i saw a notice in the window that said the shop now had permission to sell kittens..i was gob smacked as i havent seen kittens or pups in shops for years, and i thought this was a thing of the past.well they had 5 kittens in a cage and i'm sorry to say it really upset me.all the kittens were asleep, and it just doesnt seem right to me to see them in a cage my daughter has 2 kittens and they are so lively, and i couldnt help but think,,how do these 5 little things rond around and play in a cage...i wish selling kittens and pups in pet shops was banned...

It isn't right. My Mum got her 10 year old cat from a pet shop because 'she felt sorry for her! (i know that she shouldn't have etc).

The cat is very timid (due to lack of socialisation) and was covered in fleas.

did they have adequete space,food,water,and was it clean??if not report them,if it was all clean then theres not much anyone can do,its not a very nice start though i saw a little puppy in a pet shop several years ago,it was in a big glass tank!!!poor thing didnt look to sharp eitherwould have bought it but it was a few hundred quid.

yes it did look clean, but i dont think they have been selling kittens very long..i went in the shop last week and they didnt have the notice up saying they could sell kittens then..but i will be going back to keep an eye on how well they are kept..

Yeah and whilst they are in the cage in a pet shop they are not in a normal household environment thus being socialised properly.

yeah totally agree when my cat had kittens by accident wen a tom cat got in2 my house, luckily she only had 3 and i kept one and my nan and a friend had others i wouldnt have dreamed of selling them 2 a petshop.
