Petwise Aquatics? (Cardiff)

SinNyx · 02-07-2014, 09:06 AM

I was wondering if anyone here has ever been to or heard much about Petwise Aquatics in Cardiff?
I don't know how many people on this forum live in Cardiff...but I thought it was worth a try!
I emailed them a while back asking about where they get their hamsters from and they apparently use a local breeder and so do not always have hamsters available...now, I have never bought a pet from there and I can say I haven't been there for years! But I remember them having a good stock of items back then, can't say that I remember much about the pets they sold though.

Would be great to hear back from anyone about them

I used to go there a few times a year! But it was before I started keeping pets as seriously as I do now so I can't really help lol
Looks like I'm about as useful as you are but I figured knowing them was a start... I hope you find out more soon

Yes

They are about 20 minutes away from me so I thought it would at least be worth a visit anyway! I hope the lack of memory I have over it proves to be somewhat useful....I prefer pkaces like that to a chain store anyway.

Good luck with them

From what I remember I liked them so hopefully our memories are sort of right and they're a good place for you to go. They're now a few hours from me so I can't really just pop in and see what I think lol

I went there a few months ago and was disgusted. they actually breed there own animals and the breeding animals were on the shop floor. All the cages were dirty. They had kittens for sale right next to the hams last time, as I fell in love with one but wasn't allowed to have one. I hope it has changed since I went there.

Oh wow...I really do hope it isnt still how you experienced still...such a shame, I also thought of smaller non chain pet shops as better...I definitely did not remember that from being there before.
