[Gpdd] CARE: PetSmart stores selling small animals

[Dragonfly]

The Petsmart in my area (north Kitsap County, Washington state) sells 
lots of small animals: hamsters, rats, mice, guinea pigs, gerbils. 
Ferrets too, if those count. Also birds, fish, and reptiles. Cats and 
dogs are regularly kept there for adoptions, but I think these are from 
shelters.

I do not know if the guinea pigs get proper care, though the hamsters 
mostly do. I did not see any hay in the guinea pig tanks the two last 
times I went in there. They are kept in aquarium-style cages that I 
wouldn't consider big enough for one of my teddybear hamsters. Some of 
the guinea pigs I've seen there are obviously young, so probably not 
"rescues".
