Super Pet/Petsmart

Super Pet

Super Pet was always one of my absolute favorite pet stores to visit growing up! The establishment was clean, the animals were happy and so were the costumers. In fact, they would hire staff members specifically to look after and care for the animals. I was so dissatisfied when I heard that Petsmart was taking over Super Pet because I knew that meant a lot of changes. I could not have been more right about this. I know that at my location there was a few staff members who were let go and there was also staff members who voluntarily quit. I really disagreed with the changes made, it's a lot less fun visiting this store now that it is Petsmart. I know that I spend 80% less time in this pet store now compared to when it was Super Pet. There used to be a good sized collection of birds kept at this location which drew costumers in, especially this costumer. Now they only have finches, parakeets and budgies in their store. I don't completely disagree with this as I know that a lot of pet store parrots come from some not so reputable breeders, they don't get taken care of properly and most time end up getting sick before or after turning up at the pet store so, I can't really argue that this was a negative decision. I do disagree with reducing the number of staff members there to care for the animals. There's still a good variety of other animals such as reptiles, fish, rodents etc..

I don't dislike Petsmart, I think that they are a decent store that offers a lot of variety to their costumers, I love that they kept the kennel for cats that are in need of forever homes as well. I would also still recommend it to pet owners because they are most likely going to find what they are looking for at Petsmart.

Thanks for reading!
