Why Pet Shack @ Sunway Mentari?

I always get PMs in forum asking ....

- Are you PET SHACK owner?
- Are you working in PET SHACK?
- Does PET SHACK sell this? and that?
- What time PET SHACK open?
- When & when I will go PET SHACK, can you help me to see my pets?
- Are you the guy in PET SHACK?
- Are you the lady in PET SHACK?
- ...... etc..
- .....etc...

Here the answer...
NO, I DO NOT own Pet Shack NOR I am the worker. I AM PET SHACK CUSTOMER lah!! :P Just like you all, I buy my needed there. And I am not there 24/7, I need to work to support my living, my family and my pets. I spend in Pet Shack, they don't feed me LOL!!

But why I always promote Pet Shack worst than like I own it? If I own Pet Shack, I guess I would not have promote it in the forum as it will consider ADVERTISING eh?

So why Pet Shack??

- Pet Shack is the most responsible pet shop, which I come accross. Why?
- They clean their animals bedding and keep them in clean condition.
- They never stingy by feeding the animals reasonal good food, of cause we canot expect a pet shop give 1st glass food eh? That will make the animals price very high. Unless end user willing to pay for it. But sadly M'sian don't :(
- They bring their sick animals to vet.
- They handle their animals.
- They do their reserch and study, they are fully load with 'CORRECT' infomations.
- They do not ask customers to buy rubbish.
- They even stop their customer buying nonsense or they think its not necessary.
- Their price is reasonable.

But what I see is, sometime people are just taking advantage there too, yeah, I am not 24/7 there, yet I am always hanging there kekekek.. and yes you may also see I arranging the products there too. But the boss always need to re-do everything, cause he complain I did not really do a good job :P Anyway I still playing with it, its still better than I sit there and do nothing. Kind of boring eh?

Ops back to the topic, come on people, to be understanding, no matter how, Pet Shack is a pet shop, other than their passion for animals, their open Pet Shack for business too, they are not doing charity. If you are lazy to do your own study, you are always welcome to go for a short cut and ask them about everything, yet give them some business then.

I had see so many times, some people went and ask thousand of questions from A - Z,, spending hours to explain to them, yet buy nothing. If you are first time there and not ready for your pet, that is ok. The most annoy me is, some of this people came back the next week with some underage or sick pet with a so tiny cage and asking how and what they should do now? These people was told not to get underage or unhealthy pets, yet because of CHEAP, they still get it. They are stingy and unwilling to spend even single cents for the pet, but asking how to cure and rase them?

- How and What to feed? if you not willing to spend for the pet proper diet?
- Where they sleep and wouldn't catch cold? If you not willing to buy them a proper nesting or sleeping place?
- How they will grow up happily? If you not willing to buy them a bigger tank or cage? Please imagine I lock you in a small toilet for your whole life. Will you be happy?

Please stop taking advantage from other people while they are being good heart and doing for the animals goodness sake. Don't be a heartless human, as we human already bad enough.

What Is Consider Supporting A Unethical Pet Shop

1st I would like to clarify myself before I make my statement. The statement below do not contain any personal reason or flaming anyone. Its purely my point of view for ‘ What is consider supporting a unethical pet shop’.

Our world is always round, and everything is in a circular.

The graph above:

ABC Company:
Products:
- Kids who from kidnap
- Affordable GOOD diamond

Toby Pet:
Products:
- Under aged joey
- Pets accessories with good price.

If as the theory we don’t buy live stock from Toby Pet, but their accessories is no harm to buy. Let see Point S1. when S1 increase, which is knowledgeable or pro buying their stuff there. Its actually increasing part of Point P1, which is Toby Pet profit/income. While P1 increase, Profit of Toby Pet and all the TB point will increase too. Which means we are indirectly SUPPORT them to get more profit and sale more under aged joey.

Same to ABC Company, if we know ABC Compnay is using the $ we pay for the diamond, to pay the people who go kidnap the kids, should we continue to buy cheap but GOOD diamond from them?? or we rather support the other good diamond shop?

If Toby Pet are selling things from reputation suggie pro, or promote by well known people, it will misleading that Toby Pet is a 1 stop shop for Suggie. Also providing Toby Pet with proper things, will only make them LOOKS better and knowledgeable, which actually they are not. Innocent party or newbie will believe that their Joey is healthy and that is the right age to bring home.

We have to think not only in LYN, its also people who WALK IN to Toby Pet.

We LYN may know we shouldn’t buy live stock from Toby Pet, but only buying their accessories, it is indirectly we are USING those innocent parties/ newbies/ suffer joey money to exchange our benefit to get the accessories there. Are we too self-fish to taking advantage in this way? We are helping this UNETHICAL pet shop to continue their business!! Same go, we are indirectly pushing more joey to suffer n die, we are pushing more innocent people to spend their money in an UNETHICAL pet shop for nothing!!

Think of this. If one day, this UNETHICAL pet shop selling their underaged, pitiful joey for $400, and selling their accessories at $10 each. Should we go buy all the good offer stuff, and let the innocent parties/newbie to buy the $400 sick joey? Don’t forget the $10 accessories which we holding happily in our hand, it’s brought from the money that sold the sick joey for $400.

Basically we not only supporting an UNETHICAL pet shop, but also we are taking advantage from the sick animals and the innocent parties. Benefit ourselves while we pushing others to the grave yard. Is this the thing we want?? Is this self-fish we are??

It is not about the name of Toby Pet, its all about an unethical pet shop. As Toby Pet is such FAMOUS in selling underaged joey, sick animals, how many of us had seen animal eating themselves in Toby Pet?? why we still continue supporting them??

If location problem, I guess the petshop which crazymouse sale her slurp will be a good shop to support? It will be more conveniences for KL people? Find a good pet shop, help them to promote and bring more good pet shop up to the surface!! Why have to choose the lousiest one??

We always claim that we willing to spend more for a good pet, claim how supportive we are. Put your hand on our heart, ask ourself.. are we?? Why don’t we put ourselves in a responsible/good pet shop shoes and think?? Feeding the live stock need money, how much higher they can sale? How much profit they can get from the animal? If we don’t support them in the accessories, but get CHEAP stuff from UNETHICAL pet shops, do you think we will have better pet shop tomorrow?? In future??
