It makes me mad to see any animal that is clearly not as it should be. This Royal should have been taken off sale & treated properly to bring it back to health before even thinking of selling it.

I would point out the problem, offer them a silly price & rescue it quickly if they have no idea what to do to help the poor thing......just my angry head at shops that have no idea talking but it does make me mad. Know your subject before trying to make a living from it!

Rant over!!

Oh dear, looks a bit on the thin side and having a rotten shed. It might be worth speaking to someone and give them some advice on where they are going wrong. Better to educate them than any other reaction. Only if when they know they are doing something wrong and ignore it is it animal abuse.

I'm going to go back in there tommorow and see if there still there and ask questions. It disgusting. As Zoe says. How many more are like it?

The shop is very small and very crammed with pets. Puppies n kittens in boxes on top of each other n stuff. Other pets in front of reptiles tanks etc so you have to move things.

Not gonna mention the shop! But I think no naming and shaming are a joke. They socialise on there more than cleaning tanks etc. apparently had been closed down before.
