Pet Food Center in Owensboro is a major disappointment and the assistant manager is the most ignorant of them all! I went in there to check out their selection of rat toys, which was pathetic, and since they didn't have anything I thought I'd go check out the animals they have. Anyway there was a group of older kids around the hamster cage which had a large amount of babies and the water bottle was so high only the mother could reach it! I There was a hamster that caught my eye right off...he was horrible looking...his fur had no shine and his eyes weren't bright like the rest..he was pretty much lifeless. Plus to make it worse there was a dead hamster in the same glass cage. We notified the assistant manager and she acted like she could care less! I have never seen someone act so uncaring or concerned. I picked up the little guy and took him up front to buy him so maybe I could get him healthy since they apparently didn't care. Neither her or the other girl staff member could give any insight on what might help him...all I got was she doesn't want to sell him because he is sick and there's a 3 day guarantee... I knew my chances on saving him were slim and told her I didn't plan on bringing him back IF he did die. We took him to PetSmart where they really were great and helpful and CONCERNED. The little hamster didn't want to eat, he could barely keep his eyes open and he gasped for every breath he took.. I tried my best but he passed away about 5 hours later. I contacted the general manager and he basically told me they took in some baby hamsters from a customer and he guesses they took them away from their mother to soon. It's sad if you're going to take animals from customers but you don't bother finding out if they are weaned or have any disease?! Learn to take care of your animals PFC and pay attention to them and maybe incidents like this can be avoided.
