The pet stores here are absolutely horrible torture chambers for ill animals. They are diseased to begin with and are held without food and water. I know, I know, the poor babies will stare at you pleadingly and you will want to buy them just to get them out of there but you will be encouraging these traffickers in misery. BTW, I got my full-blooded Persian kitty from QAWS. She had been abandoned in the middle of summer, probably by someone who found it inconvenient to board her during their vacation or were too stingy to take her when they went home. At that time she looked like something you'd scrape off your shoe. Now she's a gorgeous princess with (high maintenance) fur to the floor.
